underwater gala – Some friends and I went for a birthday dinner, and needless to say, b-day girl was very happy! From the funky hip decor, excellent service, and fantabulous food presented beautifully, we had a fine SF gastronomic experience. We blew over $90 each for dinner for 4, but that included bday girl's portion, drinks for all, and we split appetizers and dessert. the waitstaff was also very pleasant and prompt, the kitchen was super-cool and gave us a free sampling of asparagus leek soup. very highly recommend!
Excellent – 1st time in SF and the only restaurant I'd go back to (out of seven). Atmosphere was excellent. Food was excellent. Service was excellent.
loved it – went last saturday for a dinner for two. rib eye was cooked perfect med rare, salmon carpacio was phenomenal, and the service was good [ono could have been better though]. overall, i would definitely will go back again.
Farallon Knows Seafood! – When my husband doesn't know what he wants to eat, he orders the Tasting Menu. In this case I can't imagine a better meal. From the extraordinary smoked salmon through the perfect crab ravioli in saffron broth with shaved fresh fennel to the scallop and foie gras and the striped bass on the freshest cranberry beans and corn you could ever eat, the meal was a marvel. And to top it off the PERFECT adult dessert -- figs poached in maderia with raspberries and ginger sabayon with hazelnut shortbread. No... read more
Faralicious! – It's like your eating in a beautiful airbubble under the sea, this restaurant has just a fantastic decor followed by an outstanding selection of some of the freshest sea-food and best steaks (surpise! Surprise!) that is San Franciscan has had in a long time. Come hungry and leave enchanted - you will not be dissapointed!
Unresponsive Service – The atmosphere, the food up to the appetizer/salad was good but then they DROPPED THE BALL. An hour passed and we had to ask our waiter about our order. Only a short reply "kitchen is backed up" was relayed to us. After that, we asked for the manager, who came over and to say the same thing with an apology that was far from sincere. Our mood and evening celebration for our party was broken and the manager did not do anything to remedy the situation UPFRONT. Upon the bill, the waiter advised us that our... read more
Rubbery fish – The red snapper was undercooked and rubbery; not thoughtfully prepared. The ambiance and service were great.
Fantastic Farallon – My party had a terrific time at Farallon! The service was attentive and knowledgable. The food was delicious, and the decor was unique and inviting. I would highly reccommend this restuarant to everyone out there.
Gotta love the sommelier – Its refreshing to go to a restaurant with a sommelier who knows what he's talking about. My fiancee and I were having trouble deciding on what kind of wine to get since we were getting fairly different types of fish. We enlisted the help of the sommelier and I think the wine ended up out-doing the great food we were served. This restaurant also has some of the most inventive decor I've ever seen. If you've got $200 to blow on a nice dinner in SF, this is the place to do it.
