We went to Memento for a pre-Valentine’s dinner, and it was such a lovely experience.
The servers were warm and attentive, and the food was excellent. As a vegetarian, I’ve never really had the chance to enjoy paella but their vegetarian paella was outstanding, and honestly worth returning for on its own. My partner had the pork chop and absolutely loved it as well.
To finish, we ordered what might truly be the world’s best caramel flan which was rich, silky, and unforgettable. The ambiance was chic and romantic, and they also have a really solid wine selection.
The only small note: the suggested tip on the bill was calculated on the post-tax amount rather than pre-tax. Aside from that, everything was wonderful.
Highly recommend for date night or a relaxed evening out with friends. We had a fantastic time and will definitely be back.

Outstanding Anniversary Dinner!
We celebrated our anniversary at Memento in San Francisco’s Noe Valley and had an absolutely incredible experience! From the moment we walked in, we were impressed by the casual elegant atmosphere and beautiful artwork throughout the restaurant.
Rafael, the owner, personally greeted and served us all evening. The thoughtful touches really stood out – there was an anniversary card waiting at our table and we were surprised with complimentary champagne to toast. This level of personal attention made the night feel truly special.
Cocktails were exceptional:
Defying Gravity (jalapeño tequila with passion fruit) – perfectly balanced with just the right amount of spice. Island In The Sun – like a refined piña colada with thyme, completely transparent thanks to their 4-day infusion process that Rafael explained.
Food highlights:
Truffle fries with truffle aioli – crispy and perfectly seasoned.
Beef empanadas – crispy dough, flavorful filling, great carrot purée accompaniment.
Millionaire Beef Tacos on blue corn tortillas – tender beef tenderloin, beautifully presented.
Mussels with coconut curry sauce – this sauce was absolutely incredible, we took some home!
The flan for dessert was the best I’ve ever had – thick custard texture with rich caramel.
Everything was beautifully presented with pansy flowers that Rafael told us come from their own backyard. The meatball stroganoff was the only dish that didn’t quite hit the mark for us – the sauce could have used more flavor. However, this could be that the garlic and truffle from the Truffle fries, affected my ability to taste well.
As a special anniversary surprise, Rafael gifted us a slice of New York cheesecake that was absolutely perfect. His dessert wine pairing recommendation was also spot-on.
We felt like royalty the entire evening. The combination of creative cocktails, mostly outstanding food, beautiful atmosphere, and exceptional personal service from Rafael made this an unforgettable anniversary dinner. We’re already planning our next visit and will definitely be recommending Memento to friends and family!

À warm and friendly restaurant at the heart of Noe Valley, where the proprietor greets his guests and they accommodate your needs. We were celebrating a birthday and brought a cake with us. Momento charged only a $5 service fee.

Had an amazing dinner experience with a large group of friends Friday night and everything we ordered was so delicious! We ordered the shishito peppers, empanadas, mussels, truffle fries, roasted salmon, crispy curry chicken, beets rigatoni, beef tacos & Portobello mushroom burger and every single dish came out fantastic & full of flavor! The service was top notch as well. The crafted cocktails and wine selection were incredible as well. I had the genie in a bottle cocktail and it was amazing! We also enjoyed sharing few desserts and all were so delicious! Had to come back on Sunday to try their brunch menu and it was so soo good! It was really hard to choose from the brunch menu since everything sounded so good, but I got to try the omelette, Avocado Toast with Burrata! Yummm… and finished our brunch with the brioche French toast. This is a hidden gem in Noe Valley and I am officially obsessed! Thanks Memento & team for the amazing back to back experiences this past weekend. I can’t wait to be back.

My experience at Memento was phenomenal! From the moment I walked in I had received very attentive service. The food was absolutely delicious and I really loved the cozy atmosphere. As soon as we sat down, we also got to have a taste of their new cocktail and it was absolutely delicious. They really go above and beyond to make sure that their patrons are happy. Every dish and drink we had we enjoyed the thoroughly. I highly recommend this restaurant. I would come earlier rather than later, because I have a feeling they are going to be very busy!

Not worth it for the price point. The surf and turf is $59 and it’s just a steak. They give you three of the smallest shrimp the ocean ever produced as the “surf”. The puree is served as if it’s a side but is really just an oversalted steak sauce. The curry chicken is just a chicken cutlet in curry flavored sauce, seems like they just curry flavor the same puree served with the steak. No vegetables or anything special about it. $18 Thai salad was three leafs with like 6 slivers of beet on top of it. It’s also weird tipping dudes who couldn’t even change out of their old zip up hoodies.

Amazing spot! Make you stop by this local gem. The drinks were top-notch. Very creative, well-balanced, and expertly made. What really stood out was the warm, attentive hospitality from the staff. Truly made us feel welcome!

Incredible dinner spot!! The cocktails were creative and delicious, appetizers were great (including some of the best empanadas I’ve ever had) and the main courses were phenomenal.
Beyond the food, the service was top notch. San Francisco restaurants aren’t usually known for their service, but we could tell Memento really values their customer experience.
Adding this spot to the regular rotation!
