Three of us had brunch here. We had a reservation and were seated immediately. The waitress was pleasant and helpful. The menu is simple exclusively vegetarian and has a broad selection of our food came fast but were were there at opening so your times could be different. The view of the Golden Gate Bridge was great the food was great and thus a lovely meals was had. If you have been skeptical about vegetarian food this should be your gold standard. I really enjoy eating here simply for the pleasure of not missing meat and proving that excellent vegetarian is possible. For San Francisco dinning this is reasonably priced but it’s not a budget restaurant.
This was my first experience at patronizing a vegan restaurant. My Mother had gone there many years ago and raved about the food.
Upon arrival to the Fort Mason Marina area, it was hard to locate the restaurant, which resided down a one way only street. Once we entered, I noticed the fantastic woodwork and table setting area. I used Open Table for my reservation, and we were promptly seated.
For dinner, the wine and cocktail offerings were exceptional. We ordered soup, sourdough bread and our entrées. Although the food was esthetically appealing, it was not as flavorful as I had hoped. I would have appreciated at least 1 seafood dish to be offered on the menu for those who are not vegan, like me. Nevertheless, we topped off our experience with two of their desserts, which were excellent!!
We requested a seat by the window and we were sat pretty close we so we were able to have an amazing view of the Golden Gate Bridge. The waiter was extremely nice and was accommodating as we had to leave in a rush. We ordered the fresh spring rolls, green gulch baby lettuces and fresh papardelle pasta. They also gave us a sorbet because it was my mom's birthday. Everything was super delicious and I can't wait to see their next seasonal menu!
Everything about Greens is amazing! The service was fast and knowledgeable, the food was creative and over the top delicious and the atmosphere was warm and scenic! The backdrop of the sun setting behind the Golden Gate Bridge was a beautiful scene not to be missed!
Sunday Brunch Treat
Last came here many years ago so ....
Arrived just before the end of the Brunch menu. Got a great seat by the window with views of the fog rolling in over the GG Bridge. Watched Pelicans, Sail boats, Sea Lions and Herons passing by.
My wife had the pupusas, I had the Autumn plate and my daughter had the French toast.
My meal was delicious. a bed of roasted veg with two perfectly cooked poached eggs and a couple of slices of Focaccia.
Chased down with a 'Goat Rock' cider (recommended!).
Service & wait times were acceptable.
Prices are what you would expect for a world-class vegetarian restaurant in a fabulous location. Not excessive by any means.
Left feeling pleasantly full, wife and daughter similarly loved their meals.
We won't leave it so long before we come back!

Great food, great views! Located in a building at Fort Mason the restaurant has a primo location for views of the Golden Gate Bridge and nearby marina. While they do offer outdoor dining, thats located in the front of the restaurant, NOT on the water side. Nice choices on the drink menu including cocktails, beer/ciders, non alcoholic cocktails, tea and coffee. The menu consists of small plate options, soups, 1st courses,second courses, and dessert. We tried the grilled peaches and the Muhammad a from the small plates. Both were unique and good. Unexpected flavors but went together well. For 2nd courses we went with the Chipotle bbq eggplant and the Chile relleno. The eggplant was covered in the chipotle sauce and dominated the flavor profile. The Chile relleno was good and mild, might have benefitted from a touch of heat/spice. For dessert we had the S’mores Tart. What a pleasant surprise. Big enough to share, it was served as a base of graham cracker crumble with a layer of raspberry sauce topped with a rich chocolate ganache bar with toasted marshmallow meringue on top. Not you’re average s’more, in the best way possible!
We’ve now been to Greens several times & it never disappoints. It has really hearty, filling vegetarian food that looks & tastes extremely fresh. For both vegetarians and not, this is a fantastic place to go—and the changing menu is a great reason to keep coming back.

Edit: Went to greens again and really enjoyed all the dishes. The menu keeps changing and we tried the avocado hummus, Mexican corn cakes, pasta and grilled eggplant. Got a table by the window and enjoyed watching the sun set over the Golden Gate Bridge.
Got the beets small plate, masala vadai and soup of the day! They were all just okay. The masala vadai lacked salt, the beets small plate was just boiled beets and the split pea soup was very underwhelming. For the main course, we had the cabbage shawarma which tasted really good. Overall, don’t see the hype.
The perfect restaurant for a romantic dinner with beautiful sunset views of the golden gate bridge.
The restaurant is fully vegetarian and most dishes can also be prepared vegan. As a starter we shared the griddle cakes which reminded me of a falafel just with a more complex flavour. As main I opted for the risotto, which was delicious and well cooked. On top of the great tasting food the service is polite and helpful.
Reservations are recommended. If you want to get one of the best tables (the ones at the window) your best chance is to reserve at 5pm and be there when the restaurant opens. These tables are first come first serve.
I really loved the people there, but for the price and the hype, we were sorely disappointed. We had a variety of items and nothing felt memorable. It was good, but not something I'd return to.
We tried the soup of the day and it was pretty basic. The pear and greens salad was fine, not sure we agreed with lentils as a choice addition. We got the potato cakes, expecting a bright latke type of taste but instead, it was a dead ringer for a crab cake with a dry radish on top. The tofu croquettes needed to be cut thinner for texture and flavor saturation. Things just needed to be more... Elevated with more clear flavor profiles.
We had very engaged manager and servers come through but things didn't come out as promised and it seemed like there wasn't much back of house communication about if we were being served and at what stage, so we had to provide it.
For a place with these prices and this reputation, I just expected more.
