Mike WinstonOctober 21, 2014Salt House is a really solid sexy date night spot in the Financial District. Don't miss the Barrel Runner cocktail or ridiculously good Poached Egg dish and read all about it on WinstonWanders below!! Read more
Christopher GabbertJune 14, 2014For dinner, be sure to get the pickled quail eggs and the beet salad. The salad comes with the most amazing goat cheese burrata-- little pillows of heaven that burst in your mouth like clouds of joy!
The Corcoran GroupJune 19, 2011Awesome contemporary tavern with a great atmosphere. Order the mixed nuts, poutine and the prime new york steak. Service is good but know to be a bit slow.
BarChickAugust 22, 2013Grab a plate of super fresh oysters or their house specialty, poutine which is chunky fries smothered with cheese and gravy
Romina Bin Mac DonnellJuly 30, 2018Place is very nice and food is pretty good (not a cheap place). The only issue is that the place is too noisy... go for the food, not for work meetings as you won’t be able to hear anyone’s voice.
Silene LimAugust 3, 2015The octopus is indeed excellent as is the ink squid pappardelle. Washed down with a glass of rose
Jason GelmanJune 9, 2012Poutine = Amazing. Life changer. New York Prime Steak very very good. Fun atmosphere, great vibe, would definitely go again.
Margot MazurMay 2, 2017Wine menu to blush at. Amazing service, very clean and bright. Bring your girl!
Spoon CarvalhoFebruary 14, 2017Have you ever had orange wine, if you haven't tried it, I recommend it!
Angela ManessJuly 15, 2012Poutine was great but avoid the pork duo. I am a fan of pork belly done right but my plate was swimming in grease. I literally choked on fat from the pork belly.
Nick HolroydJune 12, 2015Gabe and Kylie working the bar make for a truly excellent customer service experience. Awesome poutine.
Jase EngSeptember 20, 2017A bit pricy. I'll give credit to the interesting dishes, but the balance in flavor leans too heavy.
Vickie WangJuly 9, 2014Ron is the most poetically persuasive waiter, and the sea bass he recommended was absolutely amazing!
Great beer selection, good cocktails. Haven't eaten a proper meal here yet.- Vickie WangJuly 17, 2014Our waiter Ron was such an artist with his words and the sea bass he recommended almost knocked me off my chair.
Ariel ZachAugust 8, 2015Liked the shishito peppers as appetizer. Good salads. Crowded and noisy at lunch.
Robert ShayeDecember 25, 2011Mixed nuts were tasty, and the chicken breast was incredible! Great meal and friendly staff!
Sharon OverbyJune 29, 2018Wait staff is excellent. Poutine and Shishito Peppers were great. Entree was an inedible disaster. Waiter insisted the chef remake the dish and the fish came overcooked a second time. Disappointed
Peter KazanjyApril 13, 2012Talk with the wait staff and shoot the shit. They're all really pleasant and funny, and just waiting to chat.
Ms HeleneAugust 23, 2019Loud. Beet salad $16 and oysters $3.50 each. Skip octopus. Attentive and friendly servers.
Amy WJanuary 29, 2011Great food, great cocktails, fantastic service - no wonder it gets busy. Highly recommend the warm truffle honey nuts, yummy!
Henna Abbas MerchantOctober 20, 2017After hearing raving reviews from friends, I'd decided to go for dinner. The service and food were ok. The drinks were good. Overall I wasn't impressed . I'd say this place is meh !
MicheleAugust 19, 2010I can still taste the short rib gravy from the poutine. So good! Thinking about all the things I can put gravy on now!
Andreas EhnFebruary 13, 2014Get the poached egg. Avoid the black cod. (It's not bad, but you can get better.)
angdipiMay 4, 2012If you're vegan, the mixed veg plate is good but is drenched in butter so ask them to skip the butter and use oil instead...
Tamara AlesiJune 27, 2011Great food. Great drink. Worth visiting a second time. Recommend. Read more
John HaberlandMarch 9, 2014Not a large selection of cocktails, but several of the ones they have a pretty unusual/creative.
M GJuly 7, 2015<45 mins into lunch they all started hovering. Didn't offer dessert, checked 3x if we paid while my friend was STILL EATING, even cleared our salt&pepper. Ridiculous for such unremarkable food.
heathr goldJanuary 21, 2012In the evening ask to be seated upstairs. They'll do it and it's v loud and chaotic below w happy hour
AaronFebruary 3, 2016Based on the price and fancy descriptions you'd think you were in for a fab meal, but it's uninspired and bland, and the service is lacking.

"Don't miss it! Excellent food, the burrata was extraordinary, and the Presidio neighborhood crowd always hangs out there."

"The Melt serves grilled-cheese burgers and they go beyond novelty. Easily a top-10 burger in the bay area, they're open late and available for delivery. Excellent beef blend, great bread& spreads"

"While all modern American restos preach local & seasonal, S&D does this in a league of its own, and in a tiny kitchen! Tasting menu is top notch as are wine selection and service. Deservedly 1*."

"Great bartenders, great drinks, and super fun vibe! Can get a little crowded so get there early if you can!! It''s pricey, $30 for a shot of scotch - 18 year I think, but otherwise good ambiance."
Jenn - 5.7
"If you are not from San Francisco, it will be harder for you to find this place. But once you get there you will love it. It has my favorite colors: black and red. I think it looks like a hunting room"
Bravo - 8.2
"Perfect for bougie (but good) cocktails and a trendy spot. Gets super busy, so come in the off hours if you can."
