Sapphire's great food and drink prices are well known. Less known are the great service and superb quality at Sapphire. This is truly a gem in San Francisco's Financial District.
Favorite happy hour place in town! Robert the owner is fantastic!! The staff is friendly, food is delish and their Lychee Martini is the best I've ever had!
JessicaDecember 8, 2014I wish there was more crushed, dried shrimp in the tea leaf salad. Couldn't taste it! I'm assuming they are pandering to the Financial District crowd. Staff was friendly.
Get the Burmese fried chicken. It's a stand out dish
KristinaMarch 5, 2015Get the Burmese style tea lead salad! Comes with cabbage instead of romaine lettuce - crunchier and way tastier!
Nancy WuOctober 2, 2013Yumm. Had the garlic noodles and tea leaf salad. Hits the spot and not too pricey
_November 1, 2015Thought it was a dive bar from the outside. $8-9 for two choice of toppings and rice or noodles as your base. Pass on the weird smelly tea leaf salad. There are way better places.
Anna LouApril 1, 2017$5.50 for a super strong lychee martini! I had to ask for lychee juice on the side
Amanda VergelApril 5, 2012The best happy hour I've stumbled upon. $5 plates. Super nice staff and yummy Burmese food!
Monica Uthappa MaleyandaOctober 11, 2013Keema Paratha,Tea Leaf Salad,Summer Salad!!!!! You will thank me later.... order these!!!:)- KristinaMarch 5, 2015Wait staff is super awesome! Gave my table initiation shots our first time here :)
- Good happy hour specials and the food tastes so fresh!
Where else can you find $3 drafts and $5 appetizers in the Financial District?
Now open for happy hour! Best pitcher deals in the area and good music!
They recently removed the trash cans from near the front doors. Leave your plate and they'll clean it for you! Sweet.
Shannon CoulsonAugust 25, 2017This place is a bizarre mix of restaurant and restaurant, but the food is GREAT - come for happy hour (4-7:30) for cheap drinks too! Garlic chicken is 👌🏼

"I had my first German food since my layover stop between Afghanistan and the US in Leipzig-Halle Airport, Germany and this place was excellent. The down side: get your German booze at the bar."
