Reviews
I also appreciate how they want to get to know you. It speaks to the family business the chef, Charles Phan, built from a small restaurant on Valencia Street. You’ll realize many are an extension of his family and the long-time colleagues/employees are committed to their loyal customers and to the business.
The Happy Hour options are a must-try as well. First two photos are the Happy Hour appetizers that vary from $8-10.
Head to bed after dinner feeling satisfied that you did something nice for yourself today!!
10 out of 10 would eat here again.
I grew up going to the original SF location, so Slanted Door has always been deeply nostalgic for me, and the San Ramon outpost absolutely holds up. The Dungeness crab noodles are still unreal and immediately take me back to being a teenager, ordering them again and again and never getting tired of it.
Beyond the food, the service here really stands out. The team is polished, warm, and incredibly responsive, you always feel taken care of without things ever feeling stiff or overdone.
It’s comforting (and impressive) to see a place maintain this level of consistency and hospitality across locations. A classic for a reason, and one I’ll keep coming back to.
A standout dish was their signature Shaking Beef. While the price might seem a bit high, it’s definitely worth trying for the exceptional flavor and quality. Additionally, the pho noodle soup deserves high praise – some of the best we’ve had.
We made a reservation beforehand, which turned out to be unnecessary as the restaurant wasn’t particularly crowded during the time we visited. However, it’s worth noting that parking at Bishop Garage can get tricky on Saturday mornings when the farmer’s market is in full swing. We circled the top floor of Bishop Garage a few times before finding a spot.
Overall, we had a fantastic lunch experience at Slanted Door. The delicious food and inviting atmosphere make it a place we’ll definitely revisit, especially to explore their dinner menu.
My husband and I dined with two friends, sharing six dishes family style between us—family style is the preferred method of ordering here. We started with the daikon rice cakes, which were one of the highlights of the meal for me!
The texture was impressive: somewhat creamy, somewhat spongy, with the light pepperiness of the daikon radish. Another favorite for me was the wood-roasted and dry-aged duck.
The duck was cooked to perfection, offering a bit of crunch with each bite of skin and a milder-than-most gaminess to the meat. Nice accompanying hoisin sauce as well. I also thought the shaking beef, served with a vibrant lime sauce, was delicious.
Shaking beef has been a favorite of mine since I first tried it at Golden Garlic on the Peninsula years ago. I love how a good crust can seal in great prime rib flavor with every bite, and the Slanted Door’s was no exception.
We also shared the stir-fried bok choy, cellophane noodles with gulf shrimp and Dungeness crab, and the shrimp and pork imperial rolls. Those were all good, but not as notable as the previous dishes.
The cocktails were expertly made, offering unique versions on classic tiki cocktails, and it takes skilled bartenders to pull that off well. My Singapore Sling—Glendalough gin, benedictine, cherry heering, cointreau, fresh pressed pineapple, lime, angostura bitters—was a delight, and everyone enjoyed their first round picks.
It did take a while for our waiter to come by, but he was an excellent server for the rest of our meal, making some recommendations and advising us on how much food to order.
Staff is friendly and nice. Definitely will be back.
