    Great location. Wonderful place for drinks and dinner in the center of the action. We will be there again when we visit the city.

    Service was not what you would expect for the price. Took a long time, waiter never came back to check on us, even the bill took forever to get there. Food was flat for flavor. It was just okay for the price. We definitely wouldn't go back with all the other options in the area. Music was good but a little too loud. The only table that could accommodate our party was next to the door. It was freezing every time someone came in or out. So windy it blew menus off the table and blew out our candles. After a few times of re-lighting they were just left not burning. And then when we get the bill, due to the size of our party the tip was pre-populated. Perhaps that's why the service was so bad... Would not recommend.

    Pleasantly surprised with the varied selections of appetizers and entrees. Seafood Risotto and Marguerite pizza were delicious. We’d like to come back again when we have more room for dessert.

    Small selection of delicious plates! Would recommend to share, portions are big enough for two. Service was wonderful - knowledgeable and prompt. Went here before catching a play at SF Playhouse.
