    Pistachio creme brûlée
    Tiffany F.

    Had a very pleasant dinner here! We came early before 5:30 to try the early bird dinner. The service was quick and they tended to the table very well. Plates and silverware were replaced after each course. The ambiance of the restaurant is beautiful. I would say one con of the place is if you're there while the sun is low, the sun is VERY aggressive. We had to move around the table a bit because of the lack of AC and the sun blaring on your face. It would be nice to have something to block it since it really overheats you when it's directly on your face and body. The courses were great. Since we had 3 people, we were able to try one of each item. Appetizers - the sea bream was a showstopper, absolutely beautiful and the fish was fresh and the sauce was so complimentary. The Bloody Mary oysters were delicious, the oysters weren't briny and very sweet and creamy. I'm a fan of bloody Mary's so this was a hit. Their salmon appetizer was lackluster, it didn't have much flavor honestly and it was a bit boring. The quality of the fish was good though. The fried leek was my favorite appetizer. There's a heavy mustardy base that was so complimentary to the fried leek. I would say it was a bit sloppy to only be able to cut it with a dull knife but the flavors were 10/10. The entrees - the pork tenderloin was cooked to perfection and the sauce was delicious. The hazelnuts offered a great contrast in texture. The mushroom Vol Au Vent was delicious and unctuous but I would say if that was your only entree it would be far too heavy. The sauce was to die for. However there were some hard bits in there that did not go well that may have been the chestnuts. They tasted a bit stale. The sole was cooked perfectly and they really nailed the sauce. A very delicious take on the sole. Dessert - the pistachio creme brûlée had an incredible flavor, wasn't too sweet. But it's not a traditional creme brûlée if you're expecting a very light and creamy one. It was thick and a bit grainy some parts but the flavors were delicious. The chocolate cake was decadent for sure but honestly a bit too much for us. If you're a big fan of thick chocolate fudge you'd like this. Drinks - we ordered their espresso martini which is made with soju and that was delightful. Not too sweet and great foam. We had a citrusy one I forgot the name. It had a beautiful presentation and just tasted like a delicious juice. Great for those who don't like the taste of alcohol. Overall had a great meal here. Their regular menu is a bit on the pricier side (like $30 mussels). I'll probably be back for their early bird dinner because it's a really good deal for what you get. Thanks for a splendid dinner!

    Cheese plate
    Kamy T.

    Got to try caché during their restaurant week. We had a reservation right at opening at 5pm, and we had a table in their small outside area. Service was attentive the entire night albeit our server didn't seem too enthused. Overall, we wish we ordered à la carte since the restaurant week menu price ($70) ended up being almost the same price, and we would've picked other dishes. Appetizers were a bit of a miss, main courses were great, dessert was good (although I wouldn't get the cheese plate again since it's just not what I enjoy). Additionally, we did order their seabream sashimi ($58) which was SO good and probably the best dish of the night. It's a beautiful dish that they make only 10 of in a night, so you have to order it quick if you have an early reservation! Appetizers - - Bread and butter: solid, bread was nice and warm and the butter was delicious. It ended up going well being dipped in the other dishes. - Cold green asparagus soup: not a fan, wasn't enjoyable cold - Salmon gravlax: good, nothing outstanding Main courses - - Duroc pork tenderloin eggplant puree: tender pork and smokey eggplant. Cream sauce was nice. - Petrale sole & parsnip: this was so good. Probably the second best dish of the night - the fish was perfectly cooked and the parsnip was incredibly buttery and addictingly good. The apple was a nice touch. Highly recommend! Dessert: - Cheese plate: a bit funky but if you like that, I think you would enjoy it. - French financier cake & yogurt ice cream: solid! Financier cake was soft and piping hot. The date was a nice sweetener and the dish wasn't too heavy. Overall, I would come back!

    REVIEW FOR BRUNCH Very busy on a Sunday had to make reservations to sit outside in the cute patio. Service was slow. Server forgot the cocktail. I ordered took a very long time to put in our orders. Duck confit buckwheat crepe: 5/5 tell me it's French cooking without telling me. Confit sooo tender. Star of the show. Tender duck paired with the perfect cheese. Strong mushroom flavor. Loved! Smoked salmon Benedict: 4/5 the Benedict itself was average. There's nothing wrong with it, but tasted like any other Benedict I've had. The best part was definitely the potatoes. Perfectly salted and the outside had a nice crunch. Steak: 3.75/5 meat was tough but flavor was good. For sure, a stunner in terms of ambience for a Sunday brunch. Take the patio if you can. The inside would be really cute for date night. Restaurant could improve in their service and flavors for brunch Benedict's. Friends told me that dinner here is better.

    Pleasantly surprised at how good dinner was! I've been meaning to come when this place first opened but never made it out until last night. They have a semi-new "early bird menu" until 5:30pm daily and it was a really good value vs ordering a la carte. Everything I wanted to try was on this menu, so it was a no brainer to choose this. I ordered the fried leek (5/5), mushroom vol au vent (3/5) and the pistachio creme brulee (4/5). My partner chose the roasted bone marrow (2/5), pork tenderloin (4/5) and the dark chocolate cake (5/5). We also ordered a couple of cocktails, glasses of wine and the scallop carpaccio (5/5). For the lower rated items: mushroom vol au vent was too heavy after a couple of bites and the puff pastry was overbaked making it tough. The roasted bone marrow had good flavor but had the tiniest amount of actual bone marrow. They gave you a lot of crostinis but in reality there was enough bone marrow for maybe 2 tiny crostini pieces. Everything else (including cocktails and wine) were really good and I plan on coming back when the sea bream sashimi is back on the menu (late march/early april according to our server).

    Cauliflower & farro with seaweed butter
    Caitlyn M.

    Caché has an early bird special for dinner. $50 for 3 courses from 5-5:30pm. Such a good deal! We started with the fried leek and bone marrow. For the mains, we ordered the petrale sole and seasonal mushroom vol au vent. And for the dessert, we both got the pistachio crème brûlée since it was so delicious the last time we had it. Everything was amazing! We enjoyed every dish, they were all seasoned well and cooked to perfection. The service was great as usual! I know I'm in for a great meal anytime I'm here.

    Rice pudding with caramel sauce
    VIC M.

    Tasty food. Very helpful service in a cozy, airy and bright location. I started the meal with the Tuna Rillette as part of their 3-course prix fixe menu. This is basically a very tasty tuna salad. I then had the Petrale Sole with Seaweed Butter. The sole was quite flavorful for a small white fish, with the seaweed sauce topping bringing a little more earthiness to the taste. The fish was accompanied by many flattened new potatoes, baked with seasoned olive oil (a carb treat). I concluded with a Riz au Lait. This is equivalent to rice pudding only the rice was plump with a creamy flavor and topped with a rich caramel sauce to contrast with the just-right sweetness of the pudding. With the meal the server suggested Chateau Cazebonne Asteries 2019 Graves (Merlot). This slightly tannic, mineral and fruit taste was a good complement to my meal.

    Warm reception, nice waitstaff and beautiful interior. We bypassed the prix fixe menu and chose à la cart at lunch. I was excited to see buckwheat crepes and I ordered one with caramelized onion, mushroom and cheese. My friend had the crab croissant sandwich. It's a nice little neighborhood place.

    Summer Sea Bream Sashimi
    Melody C.

    Went to celebrate a birthday and the food did not disappoint. Expect to spend ~50/person if you want to be full. Definitely a high end restaurant. They charge you 4 dollars for bread. Recommend making a reservation ahead of time. Sea Bream Sashimi is their signature dish (43 dollars). It was delicious and came with the actual fish which I have never seen at other restaurants. It was fun to scrape the sashimi off the fish bone after we were done with the slices. The roasted cauliflower was my absolute favorite. It sounded like a simple dish but it packed so much flavor and the grains were perfectly moist with seasoning under the cauliflower. Did not have anything special for birthdays though which was disappointing. Ambiance was upscale and on the quieter side.

    I've been trying to trying this French restaurant in the Sunset for ages and finally got the chance to. Their take on Fusion French food definitely caught my eyes. Sea bream Sashimi (5/5): definitely could not without getting this. The fish was plump and so fresh. In addition, the sauces complimented the flavors of the fish. Surf and turf crudo (5/5): This is a beef tartare and oyster dish. I thought it was super fresh and it was the most unique tartare I've ever had! Sole (5/5): The fish was tasty. The sauce was creamy and brought a unique flavor I've never experienced before. Overall really enjoyed this place.

    Sashimi and mussels
    Priyanka S.

    I came to cache bistro with a friend and sadly it was not the best. While the food was decent I was not a huge fan of the dishes we ordered. We decided to get the sea bream sashimi and the mussels. The sashimi while aesthetic, was quite lackluster and bland and the fish did not taste as fresh as sushi spots I have been to. The mussels on the other hand were definitely better but were grainy and the broth was very watered down with mild notes of chorizo and garlic. The service however, unlike the food, was great and the staff was very friendly and kind.

    Bitter sour mocktail
    Vivian H.

    Came right after Thanksgiving this year and it was relatively busy on a Monday night - you can definitely get a table but also there's a good vibe. We sat on the patio which is well-heated. Believe they had blankets on the chairs as well if needed. Was bummed they didn't have their signature sea bream sashimi anymore but tried a ton of other dishes. Everything was either solid or simply not to our personal liking (too sweet or fishy etc.). Standouts were the bread and duck. Would definitely recommend trying - what a sweet spot. APPETIZERS Bread - get it, in fact get 2. it's so good. Bloody Mary oysters - didn't hit for us Tuna - just ok, get if you want clean protein Surf and turf crudo - interesting but real fishy Mussels, bone marrow - well-done! Folks especially loved the bone marrow. MAINS Duck - so good we ordered another, though one said she got a chewy piece Pork tenderloin - good though quite sauce heavy Halibut and sole - solid and light DESSERTS Warm cookie w caramel, peanut, almond gelato - reaaaally sweet Buckwheat maple tart - crowd fave, such a delicate crust Financier - enjoyed contrast with the yogurt but some found that too sour Also had a really great sour mocktail! Service was great. They were mindful of pointing out dishes for shellfish allergy. This is just tea but I did have to ask for it again after awhile of waiting and they comped it since they realized they forgot. Prices look high but sizable portions and very cute space. As always in the sunset parking may be challenging. Really glad we checked it out!

    Restaurant week brunch 2025
    Jamie Z.

    Cozy and vibrant spot on 9th and Irving featuring a gorgeous bar at the front of house and indoor and outdoor seating towards the back. My friends and I stopped by after a lovely visit to the DeYoung Museum on Saturday afternoon, which just so happened to habe landed on the end of Restaurant Week SF. Their menu sounded scrumptious and we were excited to stop by. Very lovely and lively crowd, we were quickly greeted upon arrival and were seated at the bar as it was quite busy. For $45/pp, their menu was well designed and showcased some amazing items that I thoroughly enjoyed: - Appetizer: 4pc Oysters - Entree: Eggs Benedict with Salmon, side salad and satay potatoes (the poached egg was perfectly cooked and laid to delicately on the buttery toast topped with smoked salmon. Well seasoned and would come back for this) - Dessert: Pistachio Creme Brulee (this was fantastic and carried the pistachio flavor well, with a great crust) Friendly service and good food. Worth a visit, and if you like drinks, their drink menu looked quite delicious!

    Warm cookie, caramel, peanuts, sweet almond gelato
    Misa K.

    Had a great dinner at Caché! It's a small and cute space, perfect for a date night. - Bread & butter: 5/5. Warm and soft. - Summer sea bream sashimi: 4/5. Beautiful presentation and very refreshing. FYI it's only available until 11/16 and won't be back on the menu until spring. - Duroc pork tenderloin with eggplant puree: 5/5. The pork was super tender and paired really well with the eggplant! - Warm cookie with caramel, peanuts, and sweet almond gelato: 3/5. It was good but a little too sweet for me. Service was friendly and super quick. Overall I really enjoyed the dinner and wine here and would come back to try the other dishes.

    Hidden away in the Mission District, Mijoté is in a blink-and-you'll-miss-it spot. Located on a…read morestreet corner with no signage, you'd be surprised to find such a fine restaurant with such little exterior flare. The inside of the restaurant is charming, with plentiful bar seating to watch as dishes are prepared in front of you in an open kitchen. The menu itself is constantly evolving and may be different with every visit. That being said, the main menu is a prix fixe 4-course meal with the option to add on 2-3 additional dishes to share. The meal starts with a amuse-bouche, generally a cold soup. For us it was a chilled golden beet soup, which tasted a bit like a nice, creamy sweet corn. One of the add-ons was the pâté de campagne, a blend of pork and fatty liver. Paired with a dijon mustard and fresh sourdough bread, it was surprisingly elevated for such a simple dish. Next were a pair of fish dishes that were the highlights of the meal, including sierra mackerel with fennel and peach, and monkfish and smoked butter. The monkfish was a particular standout as it was coated with a dill sauce, and complimented with the sweetness of diced rhubarb and earthiness of hazelnuts. The monkfish featured a smoky and lightly spiced flavor. The dish was extremely well-balanced and paired sweet, savory, sour, spicy, and smoky to a tee. Really excellent. The octopus and yukon potato was an add-on - the octopus was extremely tender, not rubbery at all, and the potatoes were perfectly cooked, crispy on the outside and soft like a mashed potato on the inside. The meal ended with a hanger steak which was solid, but compared to the other dishes, less extravagant. The dessert featured a rose sorbet, with milk foam and strawberries. As a whole, Mijoté dishes are simple, layered and extremely satisfying to eat. While presentationally may not blow you away, the taste will leave you feeling satisfied. The blend of French and Japanese culinary tradition and cuisine, Mijoté is comforting, elevated, and balanced. Very rare to find fine-dining that tastes so great while also feeling homey at the same time. If in SF, absolutely worth a visit.

    Great food, fabulous wines, warm and gracious service ... what more could you want? I'm a big fan…read moreof moules frites and theirs is delicious. The burger is insanely good as well!

The perfect slow French cafe…read morevibe, where they'll actually follow your request to pace your dishes in your own custom course list. With most non-main dishes around $15, it's a great way to slowly snack the afternoon away. French Onion Soup: Packed full of flavor! They put a lot of care into the cooking the onions, since they were nicely caramelized. This helped the soup flavor profile. With the soaked bread and cheese on top, it was quite a hearty soup. Beef Tartar: It seemed like the meat was diced small by hand, not mechanically processed into ground beef, which is how it should be. It came to the table pre-mixed except for the quail egg on top. The flavor had a nice a Dijon mustard tang. The portion of crispy crostini was just right for the amount of meat (many places short change you on that). Roasted Bone Marrow: Looks primal, with one large bone cut cross sectionally and charred on top. They added some Dijon mustard and breadcrumbs before the broiling, which really enhanced the experience. A little goes a long way with this intense marrow spread of crostini. Escargot: Traditional preparation, but I was pleasantly surprised that they added double escargot in every buttery hole. At first I thought it was a mistake, but then realize it was by design as every hole was filled that way. Such a nice treat. Duck Confit Croquettes: Three crispy dense balls with lots of shreds of duck inside. Plus a very pleasant presentation of sauce and pistachios on top. While I liked all the flavors and textures, I wasn't a fan of the fact that inside duck was chilled. Wish the whole ball was warm. Strawberry Fruit Crumble: Not what I was expecting for a crumble. Was more like buttery cookie crumbled on top, but it actually worked. The real star were the fresh strawberries in three forms: diced, sauce and ice cream. So delicious!

    Best French restaurant in SF IMO!…read more If you're getting anything off the menu, I recommend the LES MOULES POULETTE . This plate is an assortment of mussels, bacon, garlic, white wine, cream, and parsley. Make sure you order bread as well, so that you can dip it into the plate/sauce . Staff is friendly and there's also outdoor seating which is perfect for the summer. This place is located in Potrero Hill, surrounded by other restaurants, bars, and a book store. Make sure to take a walk around the neighborhood after.

    I've been constantly passing by this place and seeing a busy line so finally had to try one…read moreweekday. Was busy as usual but I came with a group of two(highly recommended) as the seating was much faster than the larger parties. The portions for some of the entrees are huge so be mindful not to over order! We tried the mussels which were delicious and the sauce it came with was great with the fries from the hamburger. I found the burger to be way more luxurious than what you'd normally expect. Again be prepared some things can be quite large. we also tried the soup of the day which was this lovely tomato basil soup and the pork chop which was perfectly cooked with another great sauce that i kept on dipping the fries in. One last note is the atmosphere it definitely feels like a nice cozy cafe that makes you wanna stay and chat with ur neighbors. Had a blast and i'm looking forward to trying their other entrees someday!

    Flexible fine dining…read more Heard about this place from a friend and figured we would try it out. It was pretty easy to secure a resy on open table. The inside is dimly lit yet warm and the staff were extremely friendly. The intriguing thing about their menu setup is its modularity - choose between 3-5 courses with any combination of appetizers, entrees, and desserts. Not being super big on desserts, we opted to share 2 x 3 courses, which was more than enough (too much) food. Seared Ahi Tuna 4/5 - Fresh tuna with a gentle sear, paired with avocado and an herbaceous dressing Seared Scallops 5/5 - Perfectly seared scallops on a bed of pasta. The earthiness of the cumin paired well carrots and pumpkin seeds. Branzini 5/5 - Fish was incredibly flakey with a satisfying crispy skin. Didn't know raisins and capers went together, but it does. Sweet and salty. Roast Lobster 5/5 - Can't hate on lobster when it cooked right. Edamame in mashed potatoes surprised me in a good way. They actually both have mild flavors with different textures and absorbed the sauce well. I used the bread to soak up the extra sauce Roast Quail 4/5 - Quail is always tough to do right. Their quails were really tiny, which was kinda cute and welcome (I didn't really want to eat a large quantity of quail anyway). The only bones is just from the drumsticks, which makes it very easy to eat. The meat itself was tender and the inside contained a sweet stuffing. The pasta on the side was al dente and the addition of lightly cooked spigarello provided a nice contrast in texture and taste. Filet of Beef 5/5 - Juicy steak, cooked medium rare. Potato gratin seems like the appropriate pairing, though I wish it was slightly crispier. Bone marrow bearnaise tied it all together. If I were to summarize the menu, it feels classic at first glance with unexpected ingredient pairings. They were quite intelligent about their menu in that they provide a solid number of choices. I did notice that they do recycle some of their sauces across dishes, which is probably how they get away with a larger menu. We were celebrating a special occasion and they did provide us with a complimentary cake and small bites, which was welcome. I am really glad we didn't order actual dessert because that would have been too much. They also give you a pineapple cake to take home, which was nice. If I were to go back in time, I would have not eaten the complimentary bread as it turned out I needed the stomach space. PSA: If you have a Chase Sapphire Reserve, this restaurant is part of their exclusive tables and eligible for the dining credit

    Dinner was at 5 pm - they didn't open early for us to sneak in first to freshen up…read more Only 2 other tables were there at 5pm and we were the first one through the door, Enjoy the food there still. We haven't been back since 10 years exactly next month. Came to celebrate Father's Day , my bday, and anniversary! The 3 course went up in price due to inflation from $83 to $130pp. It's more expensive than getting the 5 course back then. 3 course is a good size to share for 2 people so you get to try 6 dishes. Cheese spread is intense but counts a dish for 4 Types of cheese. They bring the cart to you, we didn't order but saw many did. We skipped the appetizer and dessert to ge the most bang for the buck. We saw others getting salads though. Scallop, Lobster, Branzini fish, duck, Lamb, and filet Bonus starter soup My fav dish was the scallop Though most dishes I would say are on the salty side They gave us each a small dessert plate to celebrate Get to leave with the breakfast pineapple goodie Ambiance was a bit chiller than I recall though I was naive to fine dining back then. They do still fold the napkins for you when you step away from the table though.

    I came here for lunch with colleagues on a Wednesday afternoon. We were a group of 10 and they had…read moreus seated against the wall with the booth seating and combined tables. The decor was minimal and nice, and definitely felt like a more upscale lunch spot. A majority of the group ordered the chicken sandwich which everyone said was delicious! The duck and steak frites were also a highlight for the group. I got the BLT croissant sandwich, which was tasty but I honestly didn't love their fries. The portions were huge and overall we were happy with our lunch! Service was phenomenal and they navigated serving a large party well. Even on a random Wednesday there were a ton of customers. I definitely want to come back for dinner and to try more of their menu items.

    Less than 1 star - Won't be back, and we just bought a house two blocks away…read more I made a reservation for two and specifically requested inside seating. When we arrived, the host -- a blonde woman with a serious attitude problem -- tried to seat us at a cramped makeshift table outside in direct sunlight where there was heavy foot traffic. When we reminded her of our indoor reservation, she was annoyed and told us to wait as "you can see it's packed". Others who asked and didn't have reservations were treated kindly and told "ok don't worry". I was with my mom who was visiting and she is sensitive to direct sunlight which is why we requested an indoor reservation. While we stood there waiting, we noticed a white couple who had clearly finished their meal being (checked paid just sitting) allowed to linger indefinitely, while the table right next to them was being rushed out and asked to bag their leftovers "overthere" because the restaurant was busy. That contrast was not lost on us. When we were finally seated inside (also cramped -- tables are packed very tight), my mom nudged our table slightly to create a little breathing room from the couple next to us. Or at least make it equidistant between table. The same host walked over and told her not to move the tables. No warmth, no apology for the wait -- just another reminder that we were an inconvenience. I was confused about the treatment received. Can someone explain? And then the food. The omelette was runny and greasy. The chicken in my sandwich was so overcooked and dry it was actually painful to swallow -- I'm not exaggerating. I was so excited to find a neighborhood spot after moving nearby. This was supposed to be a lovely Saturday brunch on May 23. Instead, the host managed to ruin the entire experience before we even sat down. The food finished the job. We won't be returning.
