We came here last year and had such a great breakfast that we decided to come back when we visited sf again last weekend. It definitely lived up to our memories. One thing we really appreciate is that it's dog-friendly, so we were able to bring our dog and enjoy breakfast outside in the sun. It made for a really relaxing start to the day. The food was delicious, and everyone in our group really enjoyed their meal. The smoothies were also fresh, refreshing, and a great addition to breakfast. My only complaint is that the portions were a bit on the small side, we were still a little hungry after finishing our plates. Overall, it's a great breakfast spot with tasty food, a welcoming atmosphere, and dog-friendly outdoor seating. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in sf.
I had a Lula's Heart cocktail. It wasn't bad but two things were disturbing. My photo shows how limited the volume of the cocktail was. Really? Either fill it higher or put it in a smaller glass. Secondly $22 for this? Shaking my head. The burger was good albeit on the smaller size. The Za'atar fries were a nice change from regular fries. A pleasant change. You have to try it. We had a window seat which was nice. Service was fine. We arrived just minutes before happy hour was over. The happy hours were incorrect on-line.....bummer.
Nice ambience by the water for a workday lunch. Ordering is quick and at the counter. I tried their shrimp skewer bowl, which was light yet filling. There was plenty of quinoa, vegetables, and avocado. It felt nutritious and was tasty. Service was fine.
Wonderful ambience, attentive staff, and delicious bites! The outdoor area is warm even during wintertime. You can see some epic sunsets :) This space is awesome for a happy hour. The servers always notice when your water needs to be filled. I was very hydrated by the end of the meal. We ordered the following: * Steak Skewers: really flavorful and unbelievably tender * King Trumpet Mushrooms: probably my favorite item after the steak skewers * Seared Scallops: wasn't rubbery at all. perfect cook * Hummus: liked the toasted chickpeas on top * Fries: definitely on the salty side; could've been better * Brussel sprouts: saltier and oilier than expected, but I liked the crispiness * Ice cream + fondue for dessert: very yummy!
They have a really great variety of vegetarian dishes! We ordered a bunch of different things and everything turned out to be really good. Tip: Don't rely too much on their online menu, as some items might not always be available. I really like their sweet potato waffle
A must brunch spot on a sunny day near the Ferry Building! O R D E R E D - Avocado Toast - Steak and Eggs V E R D I C T If you're brunching here, I'm talking specifically about the outdoor seating -- it's giving chill, cozy, and effortlessly aesthetic. You really can't go wrong. My friend and I posted up here for brunch and didn't want to leave. It's order first, then grab your spot -- and honestly, it's a free-for-all in the best way. Bar seats, couches, indoor, outdoor... pick your vibe and settle in. And let's not ignore the setting -- the hotel itself is gorgeous. The lounge next to Terrene is so serene, with the sun hitting just right... it's the kind of place you accidentally spend hours at. Bonus: it's also a great gluten-free friendly spot, so everyone can eat good and feel good.
We came here as a big group for my friend's birthday and it was disappointing. The service was not good at all and one of our orders came all the way at the end after everyone else was already done and when it was time to go. The vegetarian options here were also a kitchen. The eggplant dish had no flavor and the falafel dish was hard to eat. The mocktail tasted bland as well. The fries and mushroom salad were decent. The Brussels sprouts were okay but could've been better. The food looks aesthetic but tastes below average. Everything is extremely expensive and the ambiance is not cute enough for these prices. I probably wouldn't come here for food again.
I made slightly last minute reservations for this sleek restaurant and was pleasantly surprised to find multiple options available for date and time. The entrance to the restaurant isn't super clear, but right when you enter the hotel you greeted by the front desk concierge services in a friendly professional manner who then provide you to the restaurant on the right. Upon entering the restaurant, there is a front desk with the host, who then guides you to your seating dependent on whether you want indoor or outdoor seating. BTW, they allow dogs indoors and outdoors! :D (which is why I chose a spot since my friend was bringing her pooch.) The ambience is posh with its carefully curated decor in airy neutral colors surrounded by the greenery of real plants! The service is friendly and approachable, but professional. Well, the dishes are a bit small for their pricing, the taste is great. My friend and I shared the beet muhammara, watermelon salad, skuna bay salmon, and the straus ice cream. I also had the Ube Area cocktail. The beet muhammara was tasty with the soft warm pita break. The watermelon salad was spectacular, crisp and refreshing. The salmon entree's sides was a bit spicy but tasted amazingly savory while the salmon was the perfect level of cooked so it flaked off beautifully and softly. The swirl ice cream was a lot for one person so I'm glad we shared that too! Even the Ube cocktail wasn't overly aggressive with the alcohol and neither overly sweet, just perfect. The only qualm with this place is the pricing, but otherwise I would recommend this place! It would be a lovely place for a date too.
Since opening in July 2022, I've avoided Terrene like people with cooties. When it was Americano (Hotel Vitale), my friend set me up on the worst first date ever here. And, then we became frenemies. J/k! But, if anything, they picked a great place for HH because of the vibes with stunning waterfront views. Earlier this year, we (not with the first date person) were at the ferry building across the street and looking for a place for a drink...so out of convenience we ended up at Terrene. Now that they're under 1 Hotel, it's a huge improvement. (+) Mediterranean Cuisine using locally sourced ingredients with rooftop chef's garden. They even make their own honey with onsite beehives. The Za'atar Fries were so addictive! Think McD fries with an earthy tang. (+) Solid, well-balanced craft cocktails. (+) Extremely dog-friendly inside and out (pets stay for free at the hotel!) (+) Yappy Hour every 2nd Monday on the month with pup cocktails and complimentary housemade treats. Wish they had it later in the week tho. (+) Awesome hospitality. Shout out to Kayla and Marianna. (+) Airy, organic design rooted in nature with preserved greenery throughout. AND, picturesque views of the bay bridge. (-) No HH specials (-) 9% SF Mandate (-) Tough street parking but that's a given. Valet for hotel guests is $79/day. Overall, if you're looking for relaxed yet vibey place for drinks with your furkid(s) hit up Terrene!
We each ordered the sunrise sandwich - one with bacon and one with sausage. The sausage was super thin and dry. The bacon was fine. The sandwich comes with a small dressed salad and three tomato halves. It was nice. The potatoes served with the sandwich were roasted but served cold and dry. Like they were left over from the night before. Randy enjoyed his mocha. We shared a very dry, flavorless except for the two small bits of jam in them, "cheese" danish. Definitely skip this $7 item that you could get at a circle k for $1.50 and it would taste fresher. You order when you walk in and someone delivers your order and then you're left to fend for yourself. We were able to locate some ketchup for the potatoes on our own. Nobody ever checked on us. This is the second place on this visit that's charging an extra 5% fee so that their employees can have a living wage and health insurance, which absolutely, every employee should have. With the prices they charge, they should already be able to do that, though. I read an article about this fee with many different names and I would rather pay a bit higher of a price and know the employees were taken care of than be surprised by this fee later. Two sandwich breakfasts, a mocha and a danish on top of tax and their healthy sf fee was $63. Steep for the quality we got. Won't be back.
This is my second time here. Very cute bar and very cute location for lunch. You have to order at the counter and I ordered the harrisa chicken sandwich with fries and the mango smoothie and it was quite expensive. It came out to $45 for lunch. The other times I've had drinks here and they are cute and also have been pretty good. I want to come back and try the bar bites.
Came here for a double date and it was so pretty inside! Good: - The plates all come pretty quickly - babaganoush with the pita came out super quickly and generous portion of pita - The lamb pita was delicious - small but the meat was very juicy - The ice cream dessert was huge - and great for sharing! Super refreshing too - The veggies were all scrumptious - the elote stuck out the most with the corn and super tasty sauce. Bad: - Pretty expensive for pretty small plates, portions are very small - Hard to flag down the waiters - Brussel sprouts were just average, the shakshuka was a bit too lightly flavored for me Overall this was a nice upscale date experience!
Amazing meal! We got a bunch of starters and it was definitely the move. The radicchio salad was good but not our favorite. Radicchio in general is a bit bitter. The fondue was amazing and the portion size was big! We go the fingerlingpotatoes which were super crispy. The best dish however by FAR was the mushrooms. I thought they were scallops at first glance and sent them back lol. Loved the sweetness and the glaze with the umami of the mushrooms. Yum!

Great ambiance and cocktails! We had the kampachi crudo, Brussels sprouts, za'atar fries with harissa ketchup, skewered steak, and the lamb hache. Three of us split the food family style and it was the perfect amount! We enjoyed most of it -- but we were on consensus that the lamb hache wasn't what we expected or something we would order again. The steak was PERFECTLY cooked to medium rare and the fries stayed crispy the whole dinner. What made this five stars for sure is the service! Our server was so helpful and checked in on us the right amount. Overall, will keep coming back! read more

The food was amazing and everything is well seasoned. I ordered the mushroom salad with chicken skewers and red wine. The service was ok. They weren't attentive but they were nice. I don't like how they kept going from speaking English to me to speaking Spanish to each other about other customers. Maybe even me. The ambiance was nice. read more

As many others have mentioned, Terrene is located inside a hotel. It was easy to find. We had a reservation and were warmly welcomed upon arrival. *SPACE* We got seated inside. The restaurant is super cute with lots of plants everywhere and a modern feel. There is a large covered outdoor area, making it perfect for SF weather. It's great for gatherings both big and small. The location right by the Embarcadero makes it an impressive venue for work events, happy hours, or date nights! *SERVICE* Service was friendly, and we got everything quickly. Our waitress gave us some helpful recommendations as well! *FOOD & DRINKS* - The burger came with pickled veggies. It was good but not particularly special - The scallops came served over a bed of beans, sugar snap peas and some greens. The beans were very filling. - Scallops (3) were well seasoned and cooked well. *PARKING* Street parking was not too difficult on a Friday afternoon. We had a good experience at Terrene, but I'd more likely come back for just drinks than for a full meal. Everything was tasty, but I still felt it was slightly overpriced. (Perhaps we're paying for the premium location and ambiance?!) Extra points because the restaurant is dog-friendly. :) read more
Had this spot bookmarked so I could visit with my dog since the hotel I saw is completely dog friendly! Since this place is inside of a 5 star hotel, I was surprised that it is a cafe. So when I was asking the staff for a table they seemed dismissive. Also the menu was different than what I found online. Brunch burger: B Looks amazing, presentation is great. Loved the thin double beef patties and bacon. The egg I ordered over easy, which may have been a mistake since it exploded on me. The bun I didn't care for, it was soft and I would prefer something more toasted. The bottom bun got soggy from the fat/meat juices. The lettuce and tomato were good and felt incredibly fresh. Fries tasted great with the feta and parsley on top. However, half the fries were crispy and half were soggy. Overall, the burger is pretty solid. For around $35 after tax and tip, I probably wouldn't order this again. read more

I went there with my colleagues and we had a wonderful time. We absolutely loved their cocktails and kept ordering several rounds because they were so good. The food we ordered was fresh, beautifully spiced, and we truly enjoyed every bite. Our server was very friendly and attentive, making our experience even more special. read more

I checked into the 1 hotel and decided to stay onsite for Sunday lunch. $72 for 1 (included tip) A bit pricey for a small lunch but the food was fresh and delicious. I especially enjoyed the pickles, the roasted potatoes and the bowl of fruit. It is convenient to have on-site but you will pay for that convenience. read more
I am in love! Terrene is inside a beautiful hotel that we were staying in for my husbands birthday (1 hotel) We had such a wonderful time here with our pup in the outdoor dining space. We ordered the weekend brunch menu & there was lots of color & fresh grub galore. Highly recommend the baba ghanoush it was very fresh with charred eggplant on top! The portions were perfect for sharing and enjoying :) We did have very attentive service as we showed up sort of late closer to 2pm but it was great. We got lucky with wonderful weather & the food came out fresh & fast read more

The food was excellent. Terrene had plenty of vegan obtains. The peta bread with the chickpea hummus was amazing, I also chose the beet salad which was very delicious. To top it all off the experience was shared with my beautiful daughter. The final finale was being served by the most curtious waiter on this side of the Mississipp, Luis. What an amazing experience dining outside enjoying the Embarcader of San Francisco. read more

Stopped for a drink on a nice sunny day. It wasn't very busy in the middle of the day and got seated right away. We sat outside and both inside and outside are spacious and lovely. Service was great and told us about the menu and their aim to reduce waste. We didn't try the food so can't comment on that but the menu looks good. We tried a couple cocktails and both were great. Good flavor, well balanced, and a bit unique. The je ne sais quoi was our favorite and was light and refreshing. Napa dreaming was a bit heavier and sweeter but also delicious. Only thing I'd say is the price is a bit steep for cocktails but I suppose it's pretty touristy around the area so anything goes. read more

Beware of the predatory pour! A $22 drink was suspiciously low so I asked and they have a "3 oz drink" MAXIMUM! What a ripoff!! I live down the street and never have I heard of that! Service is amazing, policy, quality and price is poor. read more

Terrene in San Francisco feels like one of the city's hidden gems, definitely underrated. We originally came for breakfast (which ends at 11am) and had just missed it, so we stayed for lunch and were not disappointed The space is located within a hotel and has more of a causal service process where you order first, seat yourself and the food is brought out to your table via a number tag. We ordered the Harissa chicken bowl, a matcha latte with coconut milk, and an açaí smoothie. The chicken bowl was fantastic, super fresh, vibrant ingredients, perfectly grilled chicken, sweet onions and veggies, fluffy grains, and a flavorful sauce that brought everything together beautifully The matcha latte tasted like it was made with ceremonial grade matcha: smooth, rich, and not too sweet. The coconut milk complemented it perfectly without overpowering. The açaí smoothie was also a hit: fresh and refreshing The vibe of the place is stunning, it reminds me of the Public Hotel in NYC meets The LINE in LA. Minimal, modern, and thoughtfully designed. It's right by the Embarcadero, which makes it a great spot to start a walk along the waterfront (just be prepared for SF parking chaos) The prices are a bit on the higher end, but the quality and experience make it well worth it. 100/10 would come back, and finally try the breakfast! read more
We had a reservation for two around 7:30pm and we got seated promptly after. Since it was a weekday, the place was pretty empty. We got seated on a table inside. The interior is a vibe and very beautiful. It's very green inside which makes it look very classy. It's a really cute date spot right by embarcadero and I had no idea it was a stone throw away from the Ferry building! All the shareables and the food options were pretty well made. We ordered the green flatbread with pears, figs and arugula which was a good size and not super expensive either! Lamb sliders were okay but could have been better! Cauliflower was to die for. Service was fast and the servers were nice. I think it'll be a great spot to visit during the day with a group of friends or simple a date! I'll try to sit in the outdoor patio the next time. read more
