Dined here with my girlfriend last Wednesday for her birthday and everything was SO good! All the dishes exceeded my expectations – everything was incredibly fresh and prepared with care. You could taste the quality and the dishes were flavorful, cooked perfectly and unique. My favorite was the ceviche with handmade crackers which was super fresh and bright. All the ingredients are prepared separately and only put together to order. The uni risotto with peach sauce was perfectly complimentary and the cauliflower with harissa was perfectly balanced. The homemade apple tart was not overly sweet and was also so good! The chef who I believe is the owner came out to talk to all the tables several times and even got us a round of drinks to thank us for coming when he found out it was my friend’s birthday. Not to mention the drinks are delicious!! I was also pleasantly surprised at the prices here compared to other places in the city. It is a great addition to Hayes and truly a gem for the quality. Can’t wait to go back!

Xebec came highly recommended, but my experience didn’t live up to the hype. For a 7pm reservation, they were already out of oysters, which was the first red flag. We pivoted to a selection of appetizers and shared plates since none of the entrées looked particularly appealing.
The Wagyu Bruschetta was underwhelming—while it’s supposed to highlight high-end ingredients, the beef was sliced so thinly it was nearly flavorless, and the supplement overpowered what little Wagyu was there. The Uni Risotto didn’t deliver either—I couldn’t detect any uni flavor at all. The hand roll tasted like a plain veggie roll, with no trace of seafood. The octopus lacked any flavors or texture that would make it stand out, and the ceviche was a low point: stale rice crackers and indistinguishable seafood that made it hard to even tell what I was eating.
The only dish that landed was the sashimi, which was decent, though nothing exceptional.
My advice? Don’t take “Japanese-Mexican-Mediterranean fusion” too literally. Japanese cuisine shines in its clarity and restraint, allowing quality ingredients to speak for themselves. At Xebec, competing flavors and overly fussy concepts ended up drowning out what should have been the stars of the plate.

Loved that the menu is so different from your typical Spanish restaurant menu. We loved every single dish we ordered! But the fattoush stood out the most- it’s different, tasty and you feel good eating it. Service was friendly and the restaurant is nicely decorated.

This restaurant on Gough Street in San Francisco is a culinary playground where Mediterranean warmth meets Japanese elegance. Recommended by a friend, my first visit was so impressive that I’m already planning my return. From the moment we walked in, we were treated like royalty, with impeccable service that made every part of the experience unforgettable. The spotlessly clean restaurant and meticulous attention to detail were evident in everything from the decor to the food.
The menu skillfully marries Japanese and Mediterranean flavors with both elegance and boldness. Each dish was a unique fusion, pushing the boundaries of both cuisines in taste and presentation. The decor managed to strike a perfect balance between cozy charm and Michelin-star sophistication. What truly stood out was the genuine warmth of the owners, who clearly pour their hearts into crafting a memorable culinary experience. I’m spreading the word about this gem and can’t wait to return for more.

Delicious! We ordered a bunch of starters and split a main dish. That way we could try a bunch. Everything was fresh and had a mix of flavors.
They have a small wine menu. However, I love their creative craft cocktails!
The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive- which is a nice change of pace.
My only nitpicky thing is that the bathrooms are small. There’s no place to place your purse or hang up your jacket. But if that’s my only complaint, I’d call the place a win!

Chose this place to celebrate our wedding anniversary, and it was a great choice. The atmosphere was cozy, and it had a positive vibe. Our server was attentive. The staff refilled our water several times without us having to ask. The food was plated well, and the prices were very reasonable.
We ordered the potatoes, sushito peppers, hamachi sashimi, Chilean sea bass, and the papardelle pasta. The flowers gin cocktail was tasty. They gave us a hand signed anniversay card & ice cream! That was a nice surprise!
We’d visit this restaurant again to try other appetizers and entrees. I’d recommend going to this restaurant. Thank you Xebec.

My friend and I dined at the bar last Friday night, and despite the restaurant being busy, the food and service were impeccable. We enjoyed perfectly crafted Xebec margaritas and shared the delicious patatas bravas, an insanely good kale salad with fresh tuna, and a must-try sea bass dish. The portions were generous, leaving us happily full from these shared plates.
It’s a gorgeous restaurant with a beautiful private room AND parking was easy in this part of Hayes Valley, so there’s really no excuse not to give Xebec a try!

We tried a number of the small plates to share. Everything tasted wonderful. The Wagyu brioche was a small serving. It would be better as two little slides to share. The arancini were crispy on the outside, soft in the middle with the bitter orange sauce a great bite. Only the promised Uni was more or less absent as the tiny dollop on top got lost . Cocktails were well prepared. Service is super attentive Would go back again .

Went with my husband and friend. The dishes were really flavorful, loved the raviolis and tuna crudo.

Phenomenal new spot in Hayes. Our new favorite dinner date spot! Interesting combinations of Japanese and Mediterranean flavors and ingredients – they work beautifully together.
Highlights were the patatas bravas (the sauce is to die for), the focaccia (the puttanesca sauce is cooked down nearly into a paste – delicious and strong), the hamachi (high-quality fish atop a balanced sweet/sour ponzu), and the burger (delicious aioli).
We’ve been twice since they opened two weeks ago and will be back very soon – go soon before reservations start to fill up.
(Note – it’s also priced very reasonably relative to restaurants in the area. The burger is $19 and most entrees are in the $20-30 range – I would bet they’ll up the prices over time so head over quickly!)
