Great service.
Food was great! Nice wine list and wine pairings. Love love love love the guava cocktail. The passion fruit mousse was an amazing way to end the meal. Wasn't a fan of the salmon tartare, but the Chardonnay pairing really uplifted the dish.
Date night ambiance.
Street parking.
We'll definitely be back. Thanks!!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

What an amazing new restaurant in Noe Valley. The couple that own it are just lovely. Both working hard to see that the guests needs at taken care of. We sat at the bar and had dinner and wine. Our meals came on hot plates so that our food stayed the same temp through out. Portobello burger was perfect . My friend had the salmon and loved it. We also had the shishito peppers to start. The person next to us raved about the mussels. They are going to start live music every other Saturday . Did I mention that the outdoor patio is great! And the art on the walls is a lovely touch.

I came here to celebrate my boyfriend's birthday and we had a wonderful time! The servers were extremely hospitable and very helpful is answering any questions we had. Because we were celebrating a birthday, we got a free cheesecake and a cutely signed card which really made our night!
The ambiance was nice and romantic, perfect for a date night. Though the place is on the smaller side, they were still able to accommodate two big parties at once.
The desserts were absolutely amazing!
Caramel Flan - 5/5 thick and creamy and possibly the best flan I have ever had! This dessert is something you definitely shouldn't miss.
Lime mousse - 4.5/5 delicious with a generous portion, but towards the end it became a little too sweet. The dessert is also quite tart at the same time so if you don't prefer sour desserts I would stay away from this one.
Mussels - 4/5 a bit on the sour side, I personally didn't love them but my boyfriend enjoyed them a lot
Mushroom burger - 4/5 big portion but the bun was a little dry
Smash burger - 4/5 also a bit dry, but still good
Overall, the food didn't blow me away (other than the desserts), but the service was so wonderful that I think they deserve 5 stars! A nice place for date night with easy to find parking on a Saturday night!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 2Oh no 0Business owner information

Cool new spot in Noe for an upscale dining experience. Service was spectacular right from the time we got there and loved that they welcome everyone with a complimentary shot (tasty and not too strong).
For appetizers we ordered the flatbread, salmon tartare, beef and cheese empanadas, and zucchini fries (special for that day). The salmon tartare was my favorite as it had a generous portions of salmon and avocado. The flat bread kind of reminded me of a soggy microwave pizza and was my least favorite.
For mains we had the beet rigatoni and the curry chicken. I appreciated the originality and presentation of the rigatoni, but it was somewhat light in flavor. The curry chicken also felt like it was missing something.
For desert we had the lime mouse and the flan. Both were excellent and were devoured in minutes.
Overall, they have good food and even better service. We enjoyed our meal and would consider coming back.Helpful 3Thanks 1Love this 2Oh no 0Business owner information

This has been an outstanding experience. We sat at the bar and ordered.
- shishito peppers. Outstanding with an umami rich sauce
- curry fried chicken - delicious
- mussels - one of the best mussel dishes I have ever had
- truffled fries - fantastic
I cannot remember a better, tastier meal. 5 stars. Please come and support this restaurant. I want them to succeed. Noe Valley is the better for them being a part of this community! Outstanding.
Also- a shout out to Alex behind the bar. He could not have been nicer! Wine was also outstanding!Helpful 1Thanks 2Love this 2Oh no 0Business owner information

Late dinner at a new restaurant called SF Memento and it was a wonderful experience. The restaurant had a mysterious and modern theme for its decoration. The food selection was great as well, with options like filet mignon, burgers and fries, and spicy shashito peppers. We also enjoyed a delicious bottle of Rocco red wine. The staff were friendly and the food was definitely worth the price which was around $110. Since it's a small restaurant, I highly recommend making a reservation.

This review is for the new weekend brunch service that began today! I had the French toast that came with a creative pandan crème and was delicious as well as a pretty presentation. My companion had the eggs Benedict soufflé that was accompanied by an arugula salad that was tasty judging by the few shared bites!
The mixed berry mimosa was delicious. My request is to add a Bloody Mary beverage because I like a savory cocktail.
The owners have designed the restaurant space to have a lovely vibe.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information
