Had the Thanksgiving menu and it was absolutely delicious. Staff were friendly and our waiter was a funny and engaging guy. It was busy, probably due to the holiday, but we had pre-booked and were seated after a short wait. The only fault was that the service was a bit hectic. They forgot one of our sides and the table next to us were forgotten altogether for about 30 mins. But the food is worth it!
RN74 is a mix between a dining car on a train hurtling through the French countryside + NYC West Village wine bar. Classy and upscale but friendly, professional and welcoming (although depending on your server, they may be a little overzealously pushy in upselling you on an appetizer or small plate.) Named after the highway that runs through the Burgundy wine region of France, RN74 is a place to indulge in a pricey upscale meal or just sample flights of Burgundian wine in a fun and elegant setting, from the huge clapping train board displaying featured wines to the energetic buzz of the thriving bar lounge.
Was part of the Michael minna test kitchen concept turned into full blown restaurant. Most patrons come here for the nibbles and great wine selection.
The cocktails are better than average, but it's the wines that provide the lure. The wine list is of acceptable breadth, but considerable depth. I fell in love with Burgundy at this place.
The food is quite good, as you would expect from yet another Michael Mina franchise. The hangar steak is particularly noteworthy.
It's always a grand time here. I love the decor and who doesn't love that it is a Michael Minna restaurant! I've been here twice for a work lunch. I love their salmon tartare, its fresh and I love that dill sauce. I've had their burger and snapper entree. For dessert, I've order the milk chocolate tart, pistachio cake, and strawberry puff. Their food presentations are on point and I've always left satisfied. One thing I haven't tried are their wines and they have a LOT of wine. Be sure to notice the cool train letters on the board of their most expensive wine bottles!
This is my new favorite restaurant in SF. Great service, excellent food, and very good wine list. I love the market board for wines. The prime rib was outstanding, as was the sashimi appetizer and tempura mushrooms. Desserts were nothing to write home about, but overall, the food is great and wine even better.
Really good but really expensive. I had the best lamb burger (a special that day) that I've ever had. However, I do have to eat very healthy and was surprised that they did not have a wheat bread option instead of sourdough. Not that I don't love sourdough, it's just not healthy for me. Great service as well.
The first thing that grabbed me when walking in the door is the intimate, bistro atmosphere. Once seated it becomes instantly apparent that the staff and cuisine are of another level. The entire staff was very helpful and attentive. All of our food was excellent and came to the table in a timely manner. Overall a great experience.
So I just moved here from Boston, but I still work for the same company. Occasionally, people from work will come out to SF and visit. This was the restauraunt they chose to all meet up at later, and I went along. At first I thought it was going to be super stuffy, but it was actually a decent crowd of this and that... I could imagine later at night it gets a little more classy (There's a sign in the bathroom area telling ladies to check their skirts before going back into the bar/restaurant, so I imagine that's a typical problem here?)
Food was quite decent. Doesn't this place have some famous chef behind it? Anyways, it was really quite good, and since it was on the company's dime, I tried a bunch of things. I recommend the Frog Legs. I don't recommend the cheese plate.
Service was great. One guy at work was like joke-taunting our waitress, and she took it well. Decor is nice. good lighting, they've also got a wine list on a ferry building notice-board. Very contemporary.
Excellent place for happy hour in the heart of the financial district. Their food is incredible and the service is quite charming. Heads up, they're doing an overhaul of the restaurant and opening up under another name but it's the same folks so I'll bet it'll be great. I think that's supposed to happen around Sept 2017 but don't quote me on that.
