Ok, I have been to a lot of different restaurants, but this is by far my new favorite place!!! The wait staff and hostesses were fantastic. You cannot beat the location, looking out onto the water watching the sunset, the colors playing over the San Francisco skyline and Golden Gate Bridge. The food was exquisite, each dish presented to perfection. Even my daughter said it was the best plain cheeseburger she has ever tasted. I tried it - she is right. We can’t wait to go back!
