Wow!!!
We went here for our anniversary and were blown away by everything. We also did the wine pairing which was incredible and spot on.
Everything is a perfect amount of food and the atmosphere is beautiful. The attention to detail was perfect. It is quite the pricey experience and very long, but well worth it for the quality and unique flavors. The little cupcake thing at the end and the airy pizza looking bite were so good I still think about them. If you get there early, the bar next door is very cool and beautiful.
We were invited to this party to celebrate our daughter's birthday. Atelier Crenn in San Francisco is a culinary masterpiece that deserves every praise it receives. From the moment I stepped into the restaurant, I was transported into a world of elegance and artistry. The minimalist decor created a serene atmosphere that perfectly complemented the dining experience to come.
Every dish was a feast for the eyes, with vibrant colors and delicate plating that showcased the chef's attention to detail and her ability to turn ingredients into edible works of art.
Atelier Crenn is undoubtedly a dining experience that transcends the ordinary. If you are looking for a culinary adventure that pushes boundaries and celebrates the beauty of food, Atelier Crenn is an absolute must-visit.
An unforgettable experience that would last a lifetime. Service was fantastic, utensils provided were unique and helped with the ambiance of each meal. I was fortunate to have one of the best wine pairings with a tasting menu that I have ever had. I would highly recommend the wine pairing menu to go along with the tasting menu to complete each meal. It will enhance your tasting experience.
It was a 3 hours of gastronomic pleasure. Evening was capped with a tour of her kitchen and met many of her sous chef and staff. This is our 4th 3-Star Michelin restaurants visited (La Bernardin, Arpeğe, Amador) and didn't disappoint. Food was phenomenal.
The only thing I can say about the ambiance is it's a little too busy and chaotic with wait staff walking in and around the table. It's loud. We are a table of 4 and I can't hear the details on the food being served. We've been to many 2-3 Michelin rated star restaurants - and this is the noisiest we've ever been.
Beautiful food, high emphasis on seafood and local Californian cuisine right now, with Asian flair. The menu is meat and dairy free, including the desserts (which are cane sugar free and use fruit as sweetener) which I found to be very delightful and interesting!
Probably one of the best culinary experiences in US. You truly get to experience the diversity of Californian cuisine with locally sourced ingredients.
The savory courses were excellent, but for me the pastry courses were what set you'd meal apart, the fig tart in particular is probably the best sweet I have ever tasted.
Menu, service, and ambiance were all amazing. Each course was so thoughtfully put together from creation to presentation. I’ve seen other reviews that slammed the dessert courses and we couldn’t have disagreed more. Just perfect little flavor and texture bites. We enjoyed every bite of our meal and definitely left sleepy between the food and wonderful wine pairing but didn’t feel bogged down. This was a meal that we looked forward to for a long time and it delivered exactly what we’d hoped for.
One of the BEST dining experiences of my life and I have worked and dined in many many 3 🌟 Michelin restaurants around the world...Chef Crenn truly is one of the best chefs in the world...
I was introduced to Dominique Crenn on CBS Sunday Morning in July 2020. After watching her interview, I ordered both of her books, The Rebel Chef and Metamorphosis of Taste, and knew that someday, I needed to experience her creativity and passion first hand.
Atelier Crenn is a renowned delight in the heart of San Francisco. It was awarded 3 Michelin Stars along with the Icon Award for the World's 50 Best Restaurants in 2021. This far exceeded all of those expectations. Every bite of this fourteen course experience was exceptional, a dance of visual beauty alongside a blend of unique and surprising flavors that left you awestruck time and time again. As if this wasn't enough, we finished the evening with a tour of the kitchen, an introduction to the chefs behind the scenes, dessert at Bar Crenn and a signed copy of The Rebel Chef.
