    Chai earl grey gin cocktail
    Celia K.

    Trekked all the way to SFO to have dinner with my mom and it was worth it! I didn't realize the hotel at SFO had such a good restaurant! It was pretty pricey but food was good, i don't know if it was worth the price though. The sushi was actually so creamy and delish though

    The restaurant, located on the 3rd floor of Grand Hyatt SFO, is lovely designed and a great place for plane spotting at the International Terminal. We had dinner here a couple times, and on a recent stay we decided to skip the free food in Regency Club and dine here. Well same as before, food is fine, sushi is fresh, service is great, but price is high. Nothing really wrong with it, but going forward I think I would prefer to eat dinner at the bar upstairs on 4th floor, their all day menu is more appealing and price is definitely better. Breakfast however is absolutely wonderful and more reasonable. We had a great breakfast before taking a long flight out of International Terminal. Grand Hyatt SFO is the best airport hotel in the US in my opinion. We frequented often and will definitely be back here again for the wonderful breakfast.

    The house bread. Yummy

    Located in the Grand Hyatt at SFO this is their main dining room. There's also a bar/pub and 24 hour grab and go upstairs. This restaurant is very nicely appointed and comfortable. It doesn't feel stodgy, but still upscale. The menu isn't broad but has enough to satisfy most palates, with an emphasis on Asian fusion. They have a variety of sushi available as well. The drink menu is on a tablet to peruse. I decided on a 'woke dish' from the menu, the Shrimp Fried Rice. It was a nice portion with a mild taste, even with jalapeño (which seemed skimpy at best. I found one slice.) The shrimp were tasty and grilled nicely. We were offered complimentary house bread which was good. I washed it down with a 9oz Sauvignon Blanc. Service was top notch and attentive The bowls they use are earthenware and beautiful. It was a good meal. Pricey at $135 for two with tip but definitely good value.

    Level 3 of the Grand Hyatt. This was a nice place to unwind for the evening. Service excellent and not rushed. Small by the glass wine list. Hokkaido scallops were tasty, albeit too much diced bacon in it which overpowered all the other ingredients on the plate. They had 4-5 salads and pasta and meats on the menu. Would return!

    Fantastic place for dinner and breakfast. We stayed overnight at the Grand Hyatt SFO for a staycation and enjoyed two meals here. The crab cakes are really delicious and I enjoyed the tuna poke presentation with the glass top being removed at the table. Kid friendly is a plus as well as excellent and attentive service in a beautiful space. We went back for breakfast this morning and ordered 4 entrees. The only disappointing one was the avocado toast - we didn't like the mustard tang or lettuce on the toast. The eggs Benedict with crab cakes were yummy as was the breakfast sandwich made with French toast. The bagel for the salmon was okay, but everything else was really delicious. Appreciated our server's attentiveness and stellar service. Will definitely be back!

    My friend and I came here for a birthday celebration! Now you're wondering, out of all the places to eat in the Bay, why would I go to the the airport? Well this isn't located in the airport, it's located the Grand Hyatt at SFO. The best way to get here is just drive and they have valet parking for just 10.00 , as the restaurant has the three hour validation. You can pay in cash or by card. The restaurant is located on the third floor and you get views of the south side of the airport. You can easily make your reservation online using RESY. The host gave us a table by the window which was amazing because I love planes and I felt so close to the planes. The menu is on the table so make sure you see all their categories and pages. It ranges from sushi to full course meals. My friend and I opted to get the Thai crab cakes. Ahi tuna, ginger miso carrot soup, pan seared scallops and miso black cod. Our appetizers came out first and here are my thoughts Thai crab cakes 5/5 - stuffed with a lot of crab and the batter wasn't too thick. This was tasty Ginger Miso carrot soup- 3/5- a little bit spicy, it came with a cracker but the cracker was like a shrimp chop and was too oily Ahi tuna -4/5 - good but the chips were a little oily as well but it's good they made it in house Main course -seared scallops - 5/5 - cooked to perfection! This was cooked so well and the edges were gave it's crisp . Miso cod 5/5- this was so fresh and tender. I loved how they made this as it melted ok your mouth. The black rice that it came with was ok, I felt that it didn't need rice or maybe they can give me less if it. The cause paired really well with this Dessert - since it was my friends bday we got the yuzu coconut panna cotta. This was very fragrant and smooth. And it wasn't too sweet. I would def come back to this restaurant and try their other menu items. Our waitress was super super nice and she tried to give us suggestions and talk to us thinking we weren't local. When it comes to their menu, I heard it changes from time to time . They also have a bar in top of this restaurant if you want to just chill and watch more action from the airport

    Eggs Benedict with crab cakes
    Julie S.

    My parents and I tried Quail and Crane after staying a night at the Grand Hyatt SFO- the service was great and the eggs Benedict with crab cakes was amazing. The dining room had huge windows and nice ambiance.

    Great Morning Meeting Spot at SFO. Wonderful breakfast menu. Impeccable service. Amazing view of the runways and fantastic art installation hanging overhead. On this visit, I thoroughly enjoyed my delightfully light "Chicken & Waffles"; fresh eggs; naturally sweet berries; and, rich, robust, and piping hot French press coffee. CHEERS!

    I'm always skeptical of restaurants within hotels; however, in this case, Quail + Crane was one of the few outstanding ones I have been to. When I walked in, the front desk and servers greeted me with a smile and positive attitude. The food was impeccable. I had their salad, poke appetizer, and ribeye steak. The salad was a good portion with fresh greens and was refreshing to munch on after a long day of travel. The poke was good, nothing spectacular. The steak, though--my goodness, was it delicious. It was cooked a perfect medium rare (perfected better than even some steakhouses I have been to) and was incredibly juicy and flavorful. The prices were steep, but that's what you can expect at a hotel restaurant in SF (let alone connected to SFO). However, the service and quality of food made up for it. I'd dine here again if I have any future layovers at the Grand Hyatt SFO!

    Chicken and waffles || grains and greens || French press coffee
    Gillian A.

    Quality stuff here. Highly recommend the chicken and waffles. The chicken was amazingly flavorful (it's like the chefs threw in every single spice they had in the kitchen lol in magically a coherent manner). Super crispy as well. Waffle was buttery-scrumptious while not being greasy at all (didn't think it really needed the bacon pieces in it but it would make bacon fans rejoice). Perfectly poached eggs to the side. Loved the mixture of different textures in the grain and greens entree. Crispy veggies, soft quinoa, and the oozing of poached eggs. A little skimpy on the vinaigrette though with an unbalanced heavy taste of olive oil. Even the French press coffee was pretty good. Smooth. Tasted freshly brewed for sure. Service was friendly but not very attentive. After receiving the plates of food the server was nowhere to be seen until she was ready to clear all of the emptied plates. Restaurant is located inside of the Grand Hyatt at SFO. I dined during breakfast service (there's a different menu during dinner service). Overall rating: 4-ish stars rounded up

    Beautiful upscale restaurant located inside the Grand Hyatt SFO. Nice place to get dinner or have a drink by the large floor to ceiling windows and enjoy the busy city view. Service is attentive. Recommend the Thorn and Petal drink; cocktails are well balanced and have beautiful presentation here.

    First time here with my friend because we wanna try something adventurous. It's by the SF International Airport inside the hotel. We've only ordered 3 dishes. And what can I say: I'm a bit disappointed. I wa looking forward for some good food, but they're very average. The seafood pasta was a bit spicy for my friend. The steak was overcooked. The only dish we both actually enjoyed was poke which is interesting. It came with a smoky taste which I like, and it's fun to watch how it was smoked. I've been here, done it and probably won't come back again.

    My partner and I frequently come to Quail & Crane since they opened. We love the staff Is amazing. Ashley was amazing and Mohit is Amazing to us every-time we go. Recently their food has gone downhill. We went there for Valentine's Day and we were excited about the food that we ordered only to be very disappointed. I got the rack of lambs and my boyfriend got the filet mignon. I got more sauce and carrots than I did meat. I literally got bones. I paid $50 for bones. I'm not sure if our server was new but we got our food out way before we got our drinks and our drinks were the first thing we ordered. She forgot our order of the wine so we didn't get wine until we were finished with our food. we asked her for steak knives when we got our and we didn't get it until we were done eating. We had to use a butter knives to cut through the rack of lambs and filet mignon. We paid 140 for our whole meal and it was a very disappointing & unsatisfying Valentines Dinner . We ended up going upstairs to the café and ordering a box of pizza and oatmeal cookie. I feel like I could've went to Costco and have ordered that for my Valentines meal instead of driving an hour and a half to do that. Honesty if the restaurant keeps up the way they're producing food , you're just better off going up to the bar and ordering their menu and the café menu and you'll get a better meal instead of going to the restaurant.

    Excellent service! My only advice is to come and see for yourself. When we called to ask about a…read morewait, they mentioned there was not wait... part of the reason they do that is because they don't keep a list. You either have reservations or you're a walk in and you stand in line until a table is available for you. At first this was strange, but I think it makes for a better experience. The team was incredible, they were so kind on a day that can be stressful for a small restaurant. We had incredible food. I was so happy to get my Eggs Royale and my husband said the French toast was the best he's ever had. (Even comparing it to French toast in Paris) No notes. This will be our Mother's Day place going forward next time with reservations.

    My partner and I decided to go to the city one weekend and decided we wanted brunch. After looking…read morethrough some place, we came across Sisterita and it looked very promising. It seems like this place is an asian fusion brunch place incorporating french dishes into thai/asian themed dishes which is up our alley. We made a reservation at 1:45 PM and we had to wait for about an extra 30 minutes before getting seated. Initially, I wanted to try their crab fried rice but unfortunately they were out of crab. We decided to get the Alcatraz Escape and the Brioche french toast which were recommended by the wait staff. The staff was generally friendly and accommodating but I can tell they were swamped and stressed out with all the people they were trying to serve. The food itself tasted decent, the Alcatraz Escape had a tasty flavor which incorporates tom yum paste (sweet, sour, tangy flavor) into their scramble with about 4 shrimps. The side of crispy chicken was good but nothing that stood out to us. The brioche was soft but there wasn't much flavoring besides the fruits and caramelized banana. It was served with evaporated milk which made the brioche soft but not adding much flavor to it. The price however was quite pricey. For two dishes as a side we paid around $78 with tax and tip.

    I still love Brenda's!!!!!!!…read more I haven't been back in a few years, but I am happy to report: they are still just as great! It was my daughter's first time and she loved it just as much as I did. We came during restaurant week so we decided to get the Creole Sampler so she could try a bunch of different items. (Sampler included red beans and rice, collard greens, fried catfish, hush puppies, plain beignet and gumbo). We also ordered the beignet flight and shrimp and grits. Plenty of food for the 2 of us, plus we had left overs. I can't not order the shrimp and grits. It's just so damn good! It's so rich and flavorful! It came out SUPER hot. Grits and cheese still bubbling. My daughter and I were both surprised she liked the collard greens. She's usually not a fan. She also liked the red beans and rice and she doesn't usually like beans either. That just goes to show how amazing the food is here! We came in around 4something pm on a rainy Sunday. There weren't many people there, but by the time we left it was more than half full. Service was friendly, and there was a band playing, which was a nice touch.

It was something about the flavor of the red powder/ seasoning that left me underwhelmed. All in all, one of my favorite stops while I was in town.
