What a great place, and why I have discovered it only now. John is the most gracious host who made us feel extremely welcome and comfortable. The whole place is very cozy. It’s like a private dining. We were able to enjoy our food and talk as if we were the only people in the restaurant. The food was also great. I don’t really like butternut squash soup, but I loved John’s. Halibut was very delicious that melted in your mouth. The other dishes were also great and wonderfully presented. Even the dinner rolls which they bake in the house, were also delicious. I actually begged John, and he gave me some to take home. I think the local patrons should chip in and buy this place a great espresso machine :). That was the only thing missing for me in this dinner.

The concept here is that the chef, John, and one waitress prepare all the food and service the tables in an intimate small space. The tasting menu is the only option! Every table has its own pocket, surrounded by curtains, to create a cozy private pocket. I loved the food, especially the ribeye. Two bonus courses. They easily accommodated a shellfish allergy, changing up one of the courses. Everything tasted fresh and was played beautifully. We also had good wine that was reasonably priced. Fantastic dining experience overall.

Not sure which was better—the food or the service. We loved everything on tasting menu and incredibly generous wine pairings.
The surprise winner to me was the squash soup, which is a dish I would’ve sworn I hated before dining here.
Everything was delicious—crab cake, ravioli, duck, the fish… Just perfect.
The chef/owner is the kindest, most down-to-earth man. He was incredibly patient while explaining the wines to us, and he happily struck up conversation with us about the little treasures in the neighborhood.
We can’t wait to return and try the menu during every season!

Definitely 5 stars.
We came to this place to celebrate my birthday. We made reservation one month earlier. Got a text message in the afternoon to confirm the reservation.
The dinner started from salad and bread. They are not in the tasting menu, but included. They were paired with sparkling wine.
Next one is the soup. It was paired with white wine. I liked the puff pastry very much.
Then the fish cake came with another white wine. This is the best dish of the whole dinner. The scallop is tender and fish cake itself is delicious.
Duck dumpling and tender breast is paired with red wine. The dumpling was crispy and breast was tender.
Main dish was roasted pork. It was a big pork with mushrooms and green beans. Mushrooms were so delicious. I personally didn’t really like the pork itself since I am the lamb lover. Of course it was paired with another red wine.
Dessert was coffee ice cream paired with dessert wine.
Since it is my birthday, I also got a special treat: a piece of cheesecake. Thanks chef John for the kindness. I am the cheesecake lover and really like it.
Overall experience is super. We got a very private table and excellent service from Jeffrey. It was a very special birthday dinner!

We had the most amazing, cozy and intimate dinner for seven last night. It was everyone’s first time there and we were all very impressed. John and team were very warm and welcoming. The pre-fixe dinner was delicious, and for almost every course, there wasn’t a speck left on each plate. The wine list is impressive and John was very helpful in helping us choose a few bottles. So excited we tried the place and everyone was talking about going back soon. Also I need to mention that the price point is insanely good for San Francisco. Go enjoy, there is no way you will be disappointed.

The most incredible meal we have had in a long time. The owner and chef provides a personalized service, every dish is explained in detail and you can hear the passion behind every ingredient. The pairing wines were exceptional and again with detailed explanations of region, varietal and reason for pairing. I would highly recommend this place. It has a set menu of 7 dishes and each one is perfect and delicious. Our booking was through text message vs automated/online but this place is well worth the extra steps – and the menu price for its quality is actually really cheap at 70 dollars!!

Went to The Richmond for a birthday dinner and couldn’t have loved it more. It’s a set menu with an optional wine add-on so you don’t have to think about anything. Sit back, relax and enjoy good food and great company. It’s truly a hidden gem in the Inner Richmond. Already thinking about an excuse to go back.

Love it here. Always feel so welcomed. Get. The. Wine. Pairing. The food is amazing , but the wine pairing makes this place a top 3 SF. It’s a full course meal. No rush. Just eat, enjoy, and enjoy some more. So sad we moved and can’t enjoy it more often. But planning more SF trips in the future so we can enjoy more. Cheers!
