Michelin star earned! The food and attention to details were outstanding. We sat at the bar and we never felt we had to wait to get attention. The cocktails, especially the old fashioned, were outstanding. We did do the wine pairing, but didn’t find that to be necessary if you stick close to home with the wines you like. We absolutely will be going back and highly suggest it for a special date night!

one of the best experiences I've had in the Bay Area. Bar tasting menu with wine pairing. Everything was top notch - the staff even took amazing pictures of us when we came in!

The service and food are out of this world. Wine pairings are unexpected and perfection. While the sit down dinner is an experience, the bar seating is an excellent way to enjoy Commis without the many hours commitment. And the bartender is wonderful.

Service, food, ambience…so perfect. And shared wine pairing was the ideal way to get the pairings without over imbibing. Thank you for a great birthday evening.

This was our second time enjoying the wonderful experience that was Commis. Their attention to detail and the overall elevated experience are unparalleled. This is aside from Chef’s genius-level offerings. I cannot wait for the next opportunity.
