   One of the best meals that I've ever eaten. It's a fixed price menu with a choice of a first course, main course, and dessert. They have an extensive wine menu. Food is inventive and the service exquisite. Highly recommended.

   Last Friday for lunch was the fourth time I've eaten at your fabulous restaurant. I always enjoy the experience entirely, soup to nuts, as they say... The food is always delicious and the fellow travelers at other tables exude conversation and class in such a wonderful manner. I do love the place...

   Spruce is just one of SF's better restaurants. Tremendous food and service in a tasteful dining room. Quiet enough to be able to hear one another speak and tables are well spaced so you don't hear other diners. Truly excellent wine list. Parking can be a challenge so Uber recommended. Enjoy!

   Set in the snazzy Pacific Heights neighborhood of San Francisco, Spruce is a restaurant tailor made for the neighborhood it resides in. With decoration exuding simple elegance, spruce serves up some of the best Californian cuisine in town. The first (and biggest) highlight of our evening was service. Our server, Ireri, was provided one of the most flawless service experiences I’ve ever had. She was extremely knowledgeable, helpful, and kind. As for the food, every single one of the courses was exquisite, from the dungeness tagliatelle (which is there for a limited time so try it soon!) to the steak, which was cooked to perfection and was as tender as you’d expect. While the desserts were good, the selection could’ve been a little more varied. More often than not, a restaurant is built on its staff and not just its food because that’s harder to master as an art. But from Ireri and even the servers who refilled our water, it seems like Spruce has got it down to a T.

    Fagottini and veloute were high caliber. Scallops were fine, not special. Beignet was mediocre at best. Service was uneven. Total bill was $170 for single lunch, which is overpriced for the experience.

    It was an unsurpassed experience extraordinaire! 3 of us dined for Sunday lunch in the gorgeous dining room and I as the host, was questioning a $98/per person brunch as it’s unheard of here in San Francisco. From the moment the host seated us we knew we were in for an inimitable treat. Our plates would be brought out by individual staff - yes 3 people to deliver each of our plates every course. A person would refold the dinner napkin when we got up for restroom. They ‘treated’ us to awesome oysters done in an unusual yummy way. Started with an out of this world coffee cake that had a chunk of salted butter upon it - call it beautiful butter with a side of coffee cake! We devoured it. Enjoyed dinginess crab toast and the mighty giant super sized fresh prawn cocktail (OMG the greens were dressed impeccably delicious), then Halibut laying on a bed of gorgeous potatoes and 2 of us subbed the entrees for their infamous Cheese/Bacon Burger. Holy Cannoli - best meat I’ve had in SF. Desert? Of course, beignets with dreamy dipping sauces and a mango ice cream dish .... The tab, roughly $150 per diner was far more than I’ve ever paid for lunch in San Francisco but we 3 agreed it was totally worth every bit for this out this world dining experience & we would return for a special occasion. Kudos to Management, all the Staff who spoiled us, the Chefs who created the masterpieces and thank you SPRUCE for this inimitable Sunday dining experience in our City by the Bay.

    For the 4th Michelin star restaurant visited during this trip, it had the "stuffiest" demeanor. Right after being seated we were warned of a time limit to accommodate the guests after us. The main dish was okay (my ribeye was overcooked and quite tough, aside from the very dull steak knives). However, the savory scallops, good desserts and tasty wine recommendation from the Somm earned my 3 star review. While most of the food was good, the experience was simply tainted by the atmosphere and general attitude of the staff.

Quiet, clean and comfortable. Not once did we feel rushed nor did the meal proceed too slowly. Food was fantastic. Such a wonderful combination of flavors and textures.

    Spruce just doesn't disappoint. There are plenty of SF restaurants that will serve you overly fussy food and charge an arm and a leg for it, without really delivering on a solid dining experience. This is where Spruce nails it. From start to finish, they deliver an EXCELLENT dining experience. It's not flashy. It's just exquisite.

    Food was great and service was attentive, but the entire experience was extremely rushed. From the beginning it felt like they were rushing things to clear the table for the next round of guests.
