    - Review of orafo's 2025 SF Restaurant Week Lunch Prix Fixe Menu - I had high hopes for this place, it being in the luxurious Four Seasons Hotel in the heart of FiDi. We noticed that service was being exceptionally slow from the check in to the ordering and food delivery. This was during Restaurant Week lunch too but it was mostly empty inside. It was a $35/pp lunch menu for 3 courses (starter, entree, dessert). Not to mention the Restaurant Week menu was wrong online and we had completely different choices when we showed up... 1. White Bean Tuscany Soup - 2/5 It was fine but the rosemary croutons were absolutely soggy, and the soup was lukewarm. 2. Fettuccine - 3/5 Nice homemade pasta texture but sauce was bland and didn't really like the choice of mixed veggies. 3. Affogato - 4.5/5 Simple. Creamy ice cream. Didn't come with any biscotti though as described I also ordered a side of truffle fries which came as a large serving actually! But we didn't receive it until the end of our meal along with the affogato. (They forgot it). Kind of disappointing that the fries were my favorite item we had.. We got them comped for the late arrival but the service was so slow we had lunch for over an hour and a half. You should go for the nice ambiance or order from the regular menu, I wouldn't recommend the prix fixe menu. **Note: They also charge for SF Health Mandate Tax.

    I'm usually hesitant about hotel restaurants, but Orafo was actually incredible. The service was great, a little slow at moments, but we still felt really well taken care of. The ambiance was beautiful with warm and moody decor. The food was delicious too. My salmon was cooked to perfection and served over a rich, creamy sauce, but the real standout was the truffle fries. Perfectly crispy, so good I could've easily finished a whole bowl on my own.

    This restaurant is inside the Four Seasons. We parked in the garage and took elevator to lobby. Restaurant was there. It was empty. Looked nice and clean. We ordered our food. My pasta had no flavor and my husband steak was ok. Very pricey for what we got. They don't validate your paring ticket even if you eat in their hotel.

    Ciopinno and steak
    Alicia T.

    Sorely disappointed. Went here for a Christmas dinner, skipped the pre fixe. Our waiter was friendly and great, some of the sofa seating has tears in it which -- isn't this supposed to be the Four Seasons? The place is overpriced for what you get. We ordered the truffle fries which were good, but skip the chili caesar salad-- way too much spice and it just put a damper on what could have been just a good Caesar, the choice of spinach for that salad to is, interesting. I ordered the ciopinno which arrived less than hot and my partner had the steak, which had tons of fat all over it and was just decent in taste. For it being $68 I would expect a lot better than that sad thing next to the sad burnt/charred (did I mention sad) vegetables next to it. Part of me feels like they could use smaller plates so that it looks better and smaller bowls so the ciopinno could stay warmer longer. After the food was served our waiter then kind of just disappeared. This restaurant was a big miss for me.

    Came here for a team breakfast. Good service and kind people. Uova in purgatorio - 3.5/5, sunny side up eggs on sausage and tomato, paired with bread. Sounded delicious, but was very salty for me. Bread is crunchy and tasty when dipped. Two eggs any style - looked good, can't mess it up.

    Came here for a corporate lunch and the food took forever to come out. Our table got charged $36 for waters which wasn't made known to us before. I requested the sauce be separate from the salad but they still doused my salad in sauce. Incredibly overpriced and not very good

    super jazzy as always, but there are definitely other four seasons restaurants that outclass this one

    Meatball sandwich
    Lawrence L.

    Hidden gem located in the four seasons hotel in the financial district. Cafe is located on the ground floor past the check in counter. It's usually not very busy, but it's a great spot for having quiet business lunches and drinks with friends or clients. Love the atmosphere and hope my recent business lunch deal is a successful one. FYI, the meatball sandwich was delicious!!!

    A surprisingly great restaurant. I was a bit hesitant to dine here, but I am so glad I did. The ambience is cute and my waiter was so friendly and welcoming. I was dining alone and he was so kind to engage and we had a some great conversation. The food was also surprisingly delicious. I had the chicken and it was crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. The broccolini was refreshingly full of flavor. I paired it with a nice glass of wine and had a great time here. I would definitely go again.

    Steak

    While staying at the Four Seasons, I dined here for dinner one night. I made reservations for a Saturday but there was hardly any diners so reservations were not needed. The food was good overall but not amazing. It was however, amazing for a hotel's restaurant. It's a great option if you want a nice meal but don't want to leave your hotel. My husband and I ordered the steak and a mushroom pasta dish. The sauce on the pasta was very rich but good. I wish there were more dessert options to choose from. We ordered a few cocktails that were made perfectly by the bartender. Our waiter was attentive and helpful. Overall, good dining experience.

    Delicious drinks handcrafted by Anton!
    Christine S.

    Amazing service, food, and drinks! We stayed at the hotel for our anniversary and decided to bring our extended family here for dinner. We became well acquainted with Anton, an outstanding staff member who served us as both waiter and bartender. His attentiveness and skill truly made the evening memorable. His self-created drinks, which were featured on the menu, were not only delicious but also incredibly creative. As an aside, I noticed that some reviews gave this restaurant a 4/5 rating despite not mentioning any true negatives. This seems arbitrary given the exceptional quality of the food and service. It's clear to me that this place offers an outstanding dining experience that merits more than just a 4-star rating. All that being said, I highly recommend!

My favorites were: the chef's choice crudo, specially the tuna and hamachi(?). The tuna was rich and smokey in a great milky and fragrant fennel sauce. The hamachi in the root veggie wrap with a slight kick, awesome! And the scallop was good too! My boyfriend liked that one, but I thought the chip on top was over powering. My other favorite, the lamb pasta! Loved that texture. Flavor wise, savory and spicy. It was cold out and really warmed me up. Loved the experience. Our waitress was also awesome and patience. She let me try a few of the wine before settling down on a full body red that went very well with my pasta. Oh and the affogato, yum!! Exactly what we were looking for.

Most of the staff were kind and accommodating women who routinely refilled your water. Even the bar seating wasn't too bad nor crowded! Definitely make a reservation! Now I'm personally not too concerned with pastas, I always think it's better to make it at home and not my first choice to seek it when eating out. But the pasta here is so flavorful, just perfect down to the texture and portion size. To start, we got the Hokkaido scallops with preserved lemon and sea beans. Refreshing and satisfies. For the pastas, we ordered the Cencioni with five mushroom sugo. A mix of cremini, shiitake, oyster, and porcini mushrooms with a deep, umami-rich flavor that's paired so well with crisps, a perfect pasta!! We also ordered the Paccheri alla vodka with tomato, cream, and nduja. Silky and a bit spicy, super delicious. I would most definitely come here again, this is probably my favorite Italian spot so far, ever. It's that good. I'm not even a pasta fanatic nor go out of my way to get Italian, but this place exceeded all my expectations.

Great pasta, nice texture, but the meat could have stood out better. It sort of hid in the shadows. Gnocchi: 4.5/5. Since I make my own gnocchi this is a very high rating from me. Excellent texture and taste for this gnocchi and the vodka sauce complemented it really well. I would definitely have this again.

I got the pasta bianco because it was the most unique sounding and honestly was delicious, the pasta was al dente. Our server also told us the wine is made for them and a server designed the wine bottle label which is super unique and pretty decent wine! Overall had a great time, I could tell they were rushing us out a bit at the end. Would come back for the deal!
