    I got lucky and was able to score a last minute reservation on Open Table so I was finally able to try Rich Table. It is a really cozy, bustling, warm space. The moment I walked in, I was greeted by our friendly host who made sure to make us feel taken care of. It was a little wait before we got sat, but it was a super busy night and I could tell all of the staff were doing their best. The food was all, as the name states, very rich! Portion sizes are on the small side but you still leave feeling extremely full with all the creamy dishes. The staff also surprised us with 2 extra sides on the house which was very sweet. Our server was also very prompt and personable. After this experience, I can see why this is a staple in the SF dining scene.

    Something delicious. Who knows what you eat.

    Very good food. Fine service. The tasting menu is exceptional. Fairly expensive but variety is good and quite filling. The donuts are a consistent part of the menu and the best. The bar is really cramped. Corner tables are ideal. 6.5% add on fee is disgusting and dishonest like so many other restaurants lately. Get rid of garbage fees and be honest.

    Easily one of my favorite restaurants ever. The menu keeps changing so you'll always be treated to something new and different. They do keep certain staples on the menu such as the porcini donuts. Try them once and then move on from them in your next visits :) they're tasty but for me not super memorable. They do taste great dipped in sauces from the other dishes though so you can always order them as your "side of bread" But sometimes I visited the menu has been incredible and we always love feeling satisfied and with happy taste buds. Their current menu (April 2026) has a lovely Hamachi Crudo that comes with strawberries- such a fun pairing! We also enjoyed the miso cod and sea urchin "cacio e pepe" noodles. The service was fantastic and dishes came out quickly. We were also celebrating a birthday and they were kind enough to bring out a complementary dessert which was delicious! Just a note they do not take walk-ins anymore and everything needs to be done via a reservation.

    Wow, seriously can't believe it took me 13+ years of living in SF to finally come to Rich Table. WOW. Five of us came to Rich Table and absolutely went overboard :) no regrets whatsoever!This place is the real deal, and the kind of restaurant you keep thinking about long after the meal is over. We decided to order a la carte, there were 5 of us so you bet we ordered....a lot. We started with the Dried Porcini Doughnuts and Raclette Dinner Bites (I'm still dreaming about these). The doughnuts are earthy, pillowy, and completely addictive. We also ordered the Toro Toast with yuzu kosho on Japanese milk bread, which was elegant and luxurious, and the Aged Beef Dumpling with RT Chili Crunch, which had a deep, savory richness that had us scraping the bowl. The Black Cod Collar with mandarin sweet & sour and sesame was an absolute showstopper for me. The fish was perfectly cooked, the sauce bright and balanced, and the presentation stunning. More, now, please! The Linguine with chanterelle and aged parmesan deserves its own moment. The pasta was perfectly al dente, the chanterelles meaty and deeply fragrant, and the aged parmesan brought this salty, nutty depth that pulled the whole dish together. It felt simultaneously comforting and refined, the kind of pasta you'd want on a cold night and also at a celebration. And the Dungeness "Crab Louie" with blood orange, almond, and yuzu kosho - oh em gee! It arrived served right inside the crab shell, which set the tone immediately. The crab was sweet and fresh, the blood orange adding a bright citrusy pop, the almonds a subtle crunch, and the yuzu kosho tying it all together with a gentle heat and brightness. It's a dish that shows exactly what Rich Table does best: taking something classic and elevating it without losing its soul. The cocktails were fantastic. Rich Table really truly can have their own bar. I got the Root Awakening (mezcal, tequila, carrot, ginger, passion fruit, cardamom, lime) was a perfect starter drink. Service was warm and knowledgeable without being fussy, and the space is intimate and gorgeous. Rich Table is in a league of its own. Come hungry, bring friends, and order way too much - you won't regret a single bite. We are so glad we ordered a la carte; I'm sure the set menu would have been fantastic as well. P.S. service was top notch, ofc. We lucked out with a big wraparound corner banquette. There was a gorgeous solid wood table, and just the right amount of tucked-away coziness for a group of five with way too many dishes on the way.

    LINGUINE, CHANTERELLE, AGED PARMESAN, SMOKED EGG YOLK
    Elaine Y.

    Came to Rich Table and generally enjoyed it but it didn't exactly knock my socks off like I had hoped. We started our meal off with the aged beef dumpling and the tuna toro toast. The beef dumpling came first doused in the house made chili crisp. That chili crisp was delicious! It was garlic forward and I also liked the pepitas in there! As for the dumpling, it was good. The dumpling wrapper was supple and not too thick. The beef was well seasoned but it was a meatball. Too dense in my opinion. It lacked the "fluffy" mouthfeel that my parents taught me to seek. As for the toast, the milk bread was toasted a lot more than I expected, it no longer had that desirable pillowy texture even on the inside. There was a good amount of toro though! And the toro was seasoned very nicely. Between the two, it was my favorite. At this point we were met with an extremely long wait. I think 30 minutes or so in, we were told the kitchen was behind and it was left at that. A gesture of house bread would have been nice in my opinion... Eventually the food did come though and at that point, we were starving. We decided to go after the linguine first which was nice and rich from the smoked yolk and the Parmesan. I personally would have liked to see the chanterelles retain more structure because it's a beautiful mushroom but as is, I couldn't tell it apart from a standard oyster mushroom. As for the schnitzel, well it was more of a deep fried bone in pork chop. Not complaining though! It was super tender and juicy and the bitter chicory did a nice job playing off the fatty richness of the pork and the slightly sweet coffee jus. It was my favorite of the mains. For dessert, we got the POG shaved ice. I thought it did a good job with flavors and textures but both my friend and I thought the perilla leaves weren't the move. The licorice taste just didn't play in our opinion...perhaps mint would have been better. All in all, I do think I'd return when the menu shifts seasons. The food was definitely good enough to warrant it despite the wait and the small observations here and there.

    Casual & energetic environment. Efficient service. Lots of interesting and flavorful dishes to try. Be sure to try a lot of their market bites (apps). The pork chop was not that interesting. If you like truffle and egg, get your own smoked jidori hen egg (or 2)

    This was a top tier experience. I finally was able to try this in March 2026 for the 1st time. This restaurant has been recommended to me multiple times and for good reason. Service. Incredible. Extreme attention to detail and food sensitivities. Excellent customer service. Very friendly staff. We did the chef's choice tasting menu for $125 pp and boy was it worth it. The amount of food was perfect. We were full but not feeling sick. Almost every dish felt like a very layered flavor and texture experience. Everything was as complex in the best way. The presentation so beautiful!! We were very impressed. This might be one of the best restaurants I've ever been to. The menu is exciting!! This place is not basic in any sense of the word. One word to describe the whole experience : spectacular. This is a rare 5/5 rating for me.

    It's very hard to make a reservation in this restaurant. Friday night 8pm we passing by we ask the host what is the chance to get a table. the host said 15min. Is our lucky night, we ordered tasting menu plus upgrade , every course The food absolutely delicious ,

    Aged beef dumplings
    Mindy H.

    My friends recommended that I try this place in Hayes Valley and it was good but I'd only come back for a couple of the dishes. Aged beef dumpling with chili crisp - probably one of my favorites of the night. The chili crisp was so good I could just eat it on its own Toro toast - this was okay, it didn't feel like the toro complemented the toast very well and I'd still prefer it on rice Chanterelle pasta - I'm not usually a fan of mushrooms but this pasta was very good. Noodles were al dente and flavor was good Pork Schnitzel - while I did prefer this dish to a typical schnitzel, the acidity of the sauce and vegetables was a bit too much for me. POG shaved ice - this was probably my least favorite food item of the night, which is disappointing cause I usually enjoy POG. I wasn't a fan of the shiso leaves and the jellies reminded me of vitamin gummies. At least the guava and mango sorbet scoops were good Lastly, i'd recommend not planning anything after- the food took a while to be served (we got seated at 5:45 and didn't finish dessert until after 7:30)

    I came here on a weekday night and it was really busy. The restaurant is on the smaller cozier side but I like the vibes here a lot. The staff are also really sweet but when I went, there was a staff who was in training and he was shadowing but it felt a little unprofessional and the staff didn't let us know either. In terms of the food, I really enjoyed the truffle egg with crème fraiche a lot and a really great starter to the meal. My second favorite of the night was the dried porcini donuts! Definitely get those here, it the restaurant classics too. Overall I had a great experience and I recommend coming with a group of friends or family!

    Dried Porcini Doughnuts, Raclette Dinner Bites
    Makayla S.

    We've been wanting to try Rich Table for some time now. We were excited for our dining experience. The staff and service were fantastic! I loved the atmosphere and ambiance of the restaurant. The food was a bit underwhelming. I was most excited to try the Dried Porcini Doughnuts but they tasted like air and mushroom dust. Our favorite dish was the burrata toast which was a bummer as you can get toast just about anywhere. My husband was not a fan of the Pork Chop as the flavors were off. The Sea Urchin Cacio E Pepe had good umami, I could tell that the pasta was fresh and handmade. The Panna Cotta dessert was served more like a mousse which was disappointing. Overall for the price I would not return as the food did not meet or exceed the anticipated dining experience.

    Dried porcini doughnuts raclette ($13)
    Ai S.

    Even though we ran 15 minutes late to our reservation due to traffic, we really appreciated that they were still able to seat us at the bar! Maybe it was because we arrived a bit late, but we were seated at an awkward corner of the bar right by the front entrance and spacing was pretty tight! ~the food~ - Dried porcini doughnuts raclette ($13): SUPER fluffy savory doughnuts with an airy/fluffy cream dipping sauce. The doughnuts were super fluffy, but still had a nice chew to them. Honestly this might've been our favorite dish of the night. - Sardine Chip with Horseradish creme fraiche ($4 per chip): very fun and cool concept, but I thought the taste was just okay! It really was just a singular potato chip with a sardine, but it was still good! - Black cod collar, mandarin sweet & sour, sesame ($14): pretty good! The cod was very tender, and I think the freshness of the mandarin was a nice touch! - Sugar snap peas, honey mustard, horseradish ($20): super refreshing! Really enjoyed the natural sweetness of the peas, and I think the freshness of this dish balances the other dishes at RT very well. - Tonnarelli, sea urchin cacio e pepe ($32): pretty good! The pasta was cooked nicely and had a nice chew to them. The sauce was honestly maybe a bit too cheesy for us? We couldn't really taste the sea urchin in the sauce as it was very creamy/cheesy. - 21 day dry aged ribeye, black bean, green garlic, crab butter ($34): the steak was cooked really well and was very tender. We were very excited about the crab butter, but we actually ended up thunking that it would be better without it, ad the butter made the dish a bit too heavy for us. - Warm coconut cake with coconut/line sorbet: This was heavenly. The coconut cake was fluffy, with a crunchy top and had such a nice coconut flavor without it being overpowering. Honestly, I would come back again just for this dessert. 10/10. ~overall~ Staff were very friendly and sitting at a bar was pretty nice, but the seating felt a bit too cramped imo. The menu was very fun, unique and seasonal, which I really appreciated!

    Anchovy Sardine Chip, Horseradish, Creme Fraiche Dinner Bites
    Connie T.

    This spot is pretty good overall, and since I lived right next door for a couple of years I ended up coming by twice, which says something because I'm selective even when something is that convenient. It's a solid value with consistently great service and food, and it feels like a place that knows what it's doing without trying too hard. I really enjoyed the anchovy chips, and while the Asian-fusion dishes were fine from my perspective as an Asian, they didn't stand out as much as the American-Californian dishes. Those, on the other hand, made a much bigger impression, which says a lot considering I've been a Californian my entire life and don't say that lightly.

Even though the place was pretty packed and can be kind of noisy, I still felt very calm amongst all the healthy plants and loved the sophisticated 70s inspired glassware.

Honestly it's very admirable for a business owner to take feedback to heart and want to incorporate it. Plus he's a really cool guy when you get to know him.

Everyone who works here is warm, funny, and present in a way that makes you feel like you belong, whether it's your first visit or your 50th. Live jazz nights here are their own kind of therapy. I once saw a harpist who made me feel like I was floating inside the music. No cover, no pressure, just ridiculously good musicians making the whole place glow. One thing I love: the rotating local art. The walls change every so often as new artists take over, and it completely shifts the energy of the space. You might not love every piece, but that's kind of the point--it's alive, it's personal, and it's supporting real artists in SF. And if you do love something, you can take it home (yep, everything's for sale). Whether you're here for the jazz, the wine, the art, or the people.. waystone shows up with soul.
