Perfect Date Restaurant!!! – My boyfriend and I ate here for our one year anniversary and loved it so much we just went back for our third. Just as great as we remembered it! Upstairs seems more romantic for couples and downstairs seems to be a litttle louder, brighter and for larger groups. Service is very attentive and friendly--we never had to ask for anything, they were one step ahead of us. For the price (reasonable) the quality of food and service is really exceptional. The short ribs are AMAZING. Can't stress that eno... read more

Don't listen to Sfguy1982, THIS RESTAURANT ROCKS!!! – I am puzzled when people write reviews but do not research the places they eat at and then suddenly are shocked with the stark reality that where they chose is completely the opposite of where they've eaten. For example of the previous reviewer. I love First Crush. The restaurant is business casual with a funky and hip lounge appearance to it. The servers are all crisp in their black shirts which fits in perfectly with the dark appearance of the restaurant. Folks, this is... read more

I love this place! – I just love eating in the city. I also love to eat at places that know how to take care of me. I come to First Crush frequently. Not as frequent as I'd like being from Marin, it's a small trek to get to the restaurant. The last visit was superb. It was our six year wedding anniversary and the manager made sure it was memorable. We sat upstairs in the corner booth. There were candles on all the tables and the place definitely had a romantic feel to it right off the bat. We started off with two glasses of ... read more

NEVER EVER EVER GO HERE!!!!!!! – Service was done by someone who looked like they were pulled off of the street and threw on a black T-SHIRT!!! Yes, no collar, no nice white tables nothing like that at ALL!!!! Second of all it is sooo loud in there that you cannot hear the person in front of you talking, so if you acutally want to have a conversation this is not a place for it. Food was ok but for the 2 hours that I was there, it was not worth the wait. Unless you want some 18 year old girls screaming in your ear for two hou... read more

Great if You Eat Hair – I went here with six others for a reward dinner - wish I could take back those 2 hours of my life. We got there and they seated 7 of us at a table made for 4. The appetizers were really good - scallops, ahi (interesting approach with a kind of tomato vinegarette) and some eggroll thing. They were paired excellently with the wine (they have a great selection. This was all fine until we got our main courses. I got the lamb, which, while very tender didn't have much flavor. Very boring. I then switched w... read more

Mediocre Service/ Horrible Salmon / Wouldnt recommend – The service here is not great. Staff is friendly however I noticed that different customers were serviced better than others. The upstairs dining area was bar-like and seating is very cramped. The salmon was undercooked and raw in the middle, when I asked the staff to cook it a little more it can back overdone and tough. I have dined at many restaurants in the city that are less expensive and provide an overall more enjoyable dining experience.

The best – This is by far my favorite restaurant. It is expensive but worth every penny. Excellent place to take out-of-towners. Very fun place to eat.

good place – Per the previous review - I'm not from out of town and I found First Crush to be quite nice. The wine selection was very impressive, we all got very good recommendations. The appetizers and main courses were also tasty. The prices are sort of high, but nothing too bad. Ther service and atmosphere were good too. Oh, and the desserts, although nothing to amazing, were yummy. The lavender vanilla creme brulee was very good. We will definitely be back!
