    My husband saw an article online talking about Luna. We decided to try it on a whim on a friday…read morenight. It's been there for years. Across from todo santos, next to Starbucks & Sharetea. I LOVE this place. We ordered goat cheese bread, octopus & oysters for appetizers. Yum. Probably the best garlic goat cheese bread I ever had. The octopus was very flavorful. The oysters did not disappoint as they were fresh. For our mains, we ordered oyster Rockefeller, rib eye steak special, chicken salad, carbonara & Bolognese. Delicious. Everything was fantastic. Not one thing disappointed. They had a Filipino man playing songs on his keyboard for entertainment. Loved it. Very pleasant sounding and too overwhelming. Just right. We had the best waiters and Chef Habib was so personable. I love the family feel. They topped our evening off with lemon cake & tiramisu. I have to say, I am a dessert connoisseur. I love all dessert EXCEPT lemon cake. I have converted. Their lemon cake is moist (hate that word), flavorful, tangy but not overwhelming. Just perfect. EVERYTHING was perfect. Thank you Luna, we will be back.

    I'm really sad to leave this review honestly because I have enjoyed coming here. And I want to…read morestart by saying the server was so lovely. But unfortunately after our mains we ordered dessert and a coffee and I found a baby cockroach in my coffee. My partner showed the server and asked the dessert to be canceled because in all honesty at this point I felt too sick to continue eating. The owner peeked out from the kitchen at us, but never came to address the issue himself. He had the server apologize on his behalf and sent out the dessert we no longer wanted "on him". The only items comped were the dessert we did not want and the coffee with the cockroach in it. I'm truly not one to leave a bad review and I'm typically very understanding, but given the situation I am very surprised that the owner didn't have the decency to come speak to us and offer some other sort of compensation.. I ended up leaving my leftovers because I no longer felt comfortable eating something from the restaurant. I truly hope they clean things up and no one else has this experience. And I hope the owner does better in any other situations like this.

    Came in for a birthday celebration, and The Firehouse did not disappoint!…read more Hubby and I had a 5:30 PM reservation, and we always opt for valet parking--it makes the evening that much more effortless. We were seated at one of the best tables in the house, which was a wonderful start to our celebration! They always serve complimentary bread and butter (for hubby, since I'm gluten intolerant), and the chef also brings out a complimentary tasting. Today's was blue cheese with dates--a surprisingly delicious combination! We skipped the appetizers because, as usual, we never want to miss dessert, and went straight for the entrees. Hubby ordered the chef's-choice ribeye, while I had the scallops. Both were absolutely superb in flavor and texture! We were still too full for dessert! Another wonderful evening at The Firehouse. If you're looking for a chill, casual atmosphere with delicious food and thoughtful touches, come check it out for yourself!

    The setting is beautiful, we came on a Sunday night and it wasn't crowded. The large paintings and…read moremirrors were beautiful. The food was just mediocre. There was nothing that made any dish stand out. We ordered the gnocchi appetizer and scallop appetizer. The scallops barely had any sear and zero flavor to them. When we received our bread we asked for butter and was told it was already on the bread and not provided any. Why have a butter knife at our setting then? Other tables had butter to complement their bread. We ordered the ribeye and fish as our main courses. The fish was cooked perfectly, but again lacked any flavoring or anything to make it special that we would want to return. Overall for the price we paid, I don't feel that we would be return customers.

    We were here for a gathering of colleagues visiting from out of town. It was a large group so they…read moreset up several tables together for us. The restaurant is nicely decorated. I got there a little early so ordered a drink at the bar. The bartender greeted me right away and took my order. Once the group started showing up I moved to the large table. From there I saw there was seating outside also. Our waitress was patient as people started rolling in and taking drink orders. Once most were seated she then started taking food orders. I ordered the Ahi Poke which was good. Others in the group ordered the Prime Rib Dip and Impossible Burger. Service was good and our waitress (Hannah) was always checking on us. As we were finishing she was kind enough to make separate checks for us. We appreciated her wonderful service. One item I would note is they charge a 3% Kitchen Gratuity to every check.

    09/27/2026 at 10:05 AM…read more Bartender: Kaleb Server: Sarah (sp) FOOD & DRINKS Three eggs cooked to order. They come with potatoes and I chose sourdough and bacon as well. Sarah listened to my cooking style request, basted medium, and the kitchen made them perfectly with her communication to them. The potatoes that come with the eggs were excellently seasoned and prepared. I appreciate that the sourdough toast was buttered while it was hot. The bacon was nice and thick, tasty, and plentiful. For my drink I opted for coffee this time, no cocktails. Next time Kaleb! SERVICE Sarah really hit it out of the park today! First, Sarah quickly moved us to a different table when we asked for a rag to clean up a few items at the table we were initially sat at. Second, Sarah went to the kitchen to get heavy cream for my coffee as I prefer it over half & half. Third, Sarah listened to the requests from both my friend and me, communicated them clearly to the kitchen who executed them perfectly. Fourth, Sarah welcomed a comment of mine and truly acknowledged it. Sarah is a gem! DECOR Elegant, clean, and welcoming. If I had to label it, I would say earthy or mother nature. Not full of trees, bushes or things like that. Just leaning towards clean natural decor. CLEANLINESS Looking mostly fantastic in this area! Today the first table we were sat at wasn't quite fully clean. Not a big deal, a few sticky drips here and there, nothing blatantly obvious. Handled quickly for us by Sarah. LOCATION Conveniently located in the Pavilions Shopping Center. Plenty of parking and excellent shops to frequent. PRICE Appropriately priced and the quality is still top notch. OVERALL EXPERIENCE I came back and brought a friend! My friend was impressed and appreciated the introduction to Wildwood Kitchen and Bar. ======================================================== 09/20/2026 at 1:05 PM Bartender: Kaleb (Trainee) Server: Antonio FOOD & DRINKS Mushroom Bruschetta to start. Very tasty. Heavy on the cheese and was wishing there were more "local" mushrooms in the dish. I'd like to come back and find some wild hedgehog mushrooms in the dish. Wildwood cheeseburger cooked medium. Well put together and tasty. Opted for the fries instead of the side salad. I wish I had chosen the side salad because their fries are skinny, bordering on shoestring. I'm a steak fry kinda person. The flavor of the fries was good, just not big enough for me. Olive oil cake for dessert with a cup of coffee (they don't have espresso). The cake is delicious! SERVICE After I was sat, no server came to speak to me. After some time I went to the host station and let them know. They apologized and spoke to my server right away. Kaleb ROCKS! He came over to ask how my cocktail was. I ordered an off menu cocktail. He didn't disappoint! I ordered it again with a more traditional Gin and again, he didn't disappoint! Antonio was good and seemed a bit rushed, I'm guessing because of his other tables. Very friendly and welcoming, he just felt like my table was a bit too time consuming for him. DECOR Elegant, clean, and welcoming. If I had to label it, I would say earthy or mother nature.

    Went to Butcher and Barrel to celebrate our 25th Anniversary. The interior was spacious and nice…read more After confirming our reservation, we were led to our table. It was a nice surprise to see a hand written "Congratulations and Happy Anniversary" card. A complimentary treat of Focaccia bread with avocado and kimchi was given as well as a glass of champagne for the both of us. Our waiter was helpful, offering his opinion on what wine to take. We went for whatever he suggested for white (for her) and red (for me). Both were good picks. Our dinner started with toasted focaccia bread. She ordered a Caesar salad also. The appetizer was 3 large slices of bread with stracciatella and pear compote. The bread was light and buttery. The stracciatella was good blending well with the bread. The Caesar salad was a big serving. Tasty and simple, nothing special. Our main entree was filet mignon for my wife and wagyu rib eye for me, both medium rare. The filet was topped with garlic confit and I added chimichurri to my ribeye. The plating was simple, the protein with the side and roasted garlic. We also added smashed potatoes to share. Our first bite was the meat itself with no dressing. I can taste why the steak was priced that way. It just melted in my mouth and left a nice smooth aftertaste. We exchanged bites, she felt the same way and I agreed that her filet was perfect. After adding the roasted garlic and chimichurri, the slices were heavenly. The surprise for me was the smashed potatoes. First time trying this dish and I was impressed. The crispness of the skin was a nice surprise. The butter and garlic added another layer of flavor. We topped our dinner with a toffee bread pudding with vanilla ice cream and caramel. I'm not a dessert person but this, this was good! Overall it was a great dinner. The food was excellent. The staff was amazing. Of course, my date was beautiful. Thank you Butcher and Barrel for an awesome dinner experience!

Food did take awhile to get to us and unfortunately not as tasty as we were hoping for. We got the spinach artichoke dip (7/10), maple bourbon pork belly (6/10), 14 oz ribeye (6/10), and Wagyu Tomahawk (7/10). The ribeye was okay, really salty. The tomahawk show was really cool, I highly recommend getting it to see it in fire. Other than that, it's fancy inside, nice for a dinner date or grabbing a drink.

Try to come here via public transportation if possible--there's a muni bus stop just a few blocks away. Otherwise you might be circling for a street parking spot for a bit! The inside is very cozy with a bar. It's not a huge space, so reservations are a must to avoid long wait times. This place always draws a crowd. We were seated outside and ordered a variety of dishes for our table to share. Everything tasted incredible. Fresh and bursting with flavor. The Cioppino was the star of the show, of course ($58). A huge bowl filled to the brink with seafood and steaming red broth. We also got the lobster ravioli ($32) that was in a delivious tomato cream sauce and fettuccine with Bay Scallops ($31) that was tender and cooked to perfection. This is a must when visiting SF and worth the price point!

Everyone was so polite even though they were super busy. We ordered Smoked Salmon as an appetizer and it was also delicious, no smell of fish or after taste at all. It tasted way better with the Sourdough Bread together with Smoked Salmon and also with Cioppino. It's a must go place if you are visiting and in town for Cioppino.
