I've been here a couple of times, from family dinners to celebrations, and it's always solid! The ambiance is a classic, traditional steakhouse. For apps, we get the Steamed clams or mussels, crab cakes, and a couple of salads. I always order the Harris steak because I love a NY strip. You have a choice of baked or scalloped potato and seasonal veggies (usually snap peas and carrots). My family loves the Prime rib! It's a huge portion, so my grandparents always split the steak! There's a difference between "Split" and "Shared". Split is when you're paying extra $10 for the sides and the kitchen will split the steak for you to share. Shared plates is when you don't get extra sides and the steak will not be split. For dessert, my favorite is the baked Alaska! They have the flavor of the baked Alaska depending on the season! Overall, the food is good, the service is solid, and most of the time I've had a great experience. One of my favorite classic American steak house! Can't go wrong!

Crème brûlée
John K.

Skipped appetizers and salad and went straight for the petite filet cooked medium rare with a baked potato and seasonal vegetables. The steak was cooked perfectly. They served the steak with garlic butter. The steak had a slight char on it and I wish there was more. The potato and seasonal vegetables were great complement to the steak. Kevin did an excellent job as our server. I got the crème brûlée for dessert and it was tasty. It would have been outstanding if the glaze on top would have been a little thicker. Vibe is upscale.

Steak Diane

Our group of four visited Harris' Restaurant for dinner, and from start to finish, the experience was exceptional. We had reservations and were seated promptly, which set the tone for the evening. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere is consistently top-notch. The dining room features comfortable booths and well-spaced tables, creating a cozy yet private environment.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service was outstanding, as always. Plates were cleared quickly between courses, water glasses were continually refilled, and the servers were friendly and attentive without being intrusive. My husband and I shared the roasted peaches and goat cheese on endive lettuce leaves to start. It was amazing--sweet, juicy peaches paired perfectly with creamy goat cheese and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar. For my main course, I ordered Steak Diane, which was prepared perfectly. The sauce was rich and flavorful. One of the highlights is that their dinners are not à la carte; my steak included a choice of potatoes, and my loaded baked potato was spot-on. The sautéed zucchini and carrots were cooked to perfection. Between the superb service, delicious food, and inviting atmosphere, Harris Steakhouse remains a favorite. We will definitely be returning.

Prime Rib, Creamed Spinach, Creamed Horse Radish & Asapargus.
Elizabeth T.

It's a Wednesday night and we had no reservation, we were greeted with a warm welcome, quickly seated and had a wonderful server. We had the prime rib, it was absolutely delicious. Every element on the plate was perfection, there is not one single thing I would change. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Live music as a dinner accompaniment in a thoughtfully decorated cozy and not too loud atmosphere.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Absolutely will be back next time I'm in town.

Mushroom and fries

Was able to get a late Sunday evening dinner with my kids for a Mother's Day mini celebration. We showed up on time. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The steak displace on the window was pretty fabulous.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It is an old school American restaurant feel.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]We got seated pretty quickly and the seats were very comfortable.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The bread here was pretty solid. Good crust on the outside and a big softness inside. My younger one loved it. Ordered a shrimp cocktail to start, prime rib for me, Harris cut steak for kiddos, got fries for kids and ordered extra mushroom. Shrimp cocktail was wonderful. Fresh, jumbo sized with some salad to go with. Ordered a glass of red. It was alright. My prime rib was wonderful. Temp was just right, good amount of salt, nice amount of options for my baked potatoes. I am not a huge fancy of creamed spinach. But it tastes alright. Liked my mushroom side but it was slightly greasy. Kids liked the steak. They precut the steak for little ones. Fries were okay. We couldn't finish the main meals and had a good amount to go. I ordered a baked Alaska and my older one got a strawberry shortcake. We both loved our desert. Service was great. Attentive and efficient. Overall, we all had a wonderful time! Would be back.

We had business dinner with set menu 4 course dinner of Harris salad, smoked salmon, 12 oz aged New York strip and chocolate mousse Everything was delicious and unable to finish steak because it was huge for me Service was attentive in private room

Had to do some research on a good steak house in sf to celebrate my boyfriend's birthday and Harris' certainly met my expectations based on the reviews I read. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I wanted a nice old school steak house where people put effort in their clothes (not just a t shirt and jeans) and I'd say this is definitely the place.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Compared to House of Prime Rib next door, I'd argue that I had a better experience with reservations, drinks, and our food here...!!! Arrived a bit early but luckily our table was ready which was great! I couldn't be any more satisfied with my filet mignon, side of potato and green beans, and two glasses of wine. For the dessert menu they have a variety of drinks and food. Because I was already so full I decided to go with the wine which was definitely a dessert itself from how sweet it was. If you're looking for a good steak house this is it! Pricey of course but worth it. [[HIGHLIGHT]](They also had live music towards the back)[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

Opened in 1984, Harris' Restaurant is one of those San Francisco classic steakhouses. I came here with my friend after seeing a video on eating at the bar, but we opted for the dining room. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant leans into old-school elegance, with plush booths, soaring ceilings, brass chandeliers, and live music adds to the timeless atmosphere.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service was excellent! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The bar has a darker, almost library-like vibe, while the dining room feels brighter, like a conservatory.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's giving 1950s charm--but with a twist, since the restaurant is only dating back to the '80s.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] And it even has a legacy restaurant seal on the front of their building.

Creamed Spinach and scalloped potatos
Tiffany K.

[[HIGHLIGHT]]A classic steakhouse! Less crowded than house of prime rib nary a block away.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The service and ambiance feels like a time capsule, what I imagine the Ritz Carlton from the early 2000s nailed in having ceremonious hospitality feel normal.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]This is not a flashy restaurant vying to capture the instagram crowd. This is an establishment weathering decades, though I will say Harris' carries the faint sterility and stiffness of a hotel lobby.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I would probably choose a different cut from the porterhouse next time. This is a splurge meal for an occasion if you are looking to cosplay what millenials romanticize as old money.

I've been coming to Harris' for years now and have nothing but fantastic things to say about this restaurant. I hosted my birthday dinner here, date nights, dinner with friends and colleagues, etc. and the service has always been impeccable. The wait staff is incredibly kind and willing to accommodate any changes or requests. They are also more than happy to recommend some of their faves on the menu. My favorite dish to get is the New York steak (medium rare) with creamed spinach and scalloped potatoes. The steaks are always amazing and I stand by this being my favorite steak in the city! I highly recommend visiting Harris' for the best steak in the city. Reservations fill up fast but I typically haven't had issues getting a table within a week's notice. If you are willing to have a later dinner (after 8:30pm), you can probably get a same day table!

Creme Brulee

The chickem dish lacked luster. For $45 I expected much more. All steak dishes and dessert was on point.

Quin B.

I don't know if they just messed up my meal but my steak was charred and dry despite being rare on the inside. Just an average experience for me. Valet was nice, 19$ flat rate. If you don't have cash you pay at the bar and leave a tip on the receipt. I was just disappointed with my steak. I ended up cutting off the burnt edges. Pricey place.

Paulina H.

I want to give this place 100/10 for service!!! I want to start with they did a coat check, and unfortunately my coat got some sticky stuff stuck to my coat. Their restaurant manager immediately apologized and tried to use gin to wipe the glue off for me, and then he gave me his card and asked me to email him for compensation after I got my coat dry clean. Oh also before we left, he immediately recognized us and went to get our coat. He's seriously the most professional and sweetest person (and really good memories) I have ever met in a restaurant! Shout out to him! Agh I wish I remember his name!! But we went there on Dec 14,2025 around 7pm (I think)! I'm thankful for his amazing help! Now for the food, I'm loving every bit of it! I got a ribeye and my husband got a NY steak. They both cooked perfectly and seasoned so well! The scallops potatoes were so creamy and the sauce was soaked into the potatoes. The drinks were kinda strong and yummy! Didn't taste much of alcohol! I felt a little bit of buzzed but maybe I drank it so fast before the food came! Hehe! [[HIGHLIGHT]]I love that they have live music there and the whole place decorated so Christmas vibe!![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

Crab cakes. $31. Very crabby.

Ask the Community - Harris' Restaurant

Is there a cake slicing fee if we bring in our own cake?

Yes

Is there bar seating and can a seat be reserved for one?

Yes there is a bar and lounge area. Reservation for one may not be required, but they will certainly take it.

What is acceptable dining attire?

Attire is nice or business casual. Nice jeans or khaki's dressed up on top are fine. Shorts, hats, flip-flops, and overly athletic wear are not permitted in the Main Dining Room. Our Piano Lounge walk-in tables are more casual.

If you show up at opening will they take walk ins? If so how long will you wait?

There are tables for dinner saved for walk-ins... No wait as long as a table is available.

Should I make a reservation if I plan to go on Fridays between 5pm-7pm?

Yes.

Is proof of vaccination still required? 7/22

It was not required last time we were there.

Do you offer outdoor dining for non vaccinated people?

No, they don't have outdoor dining. All of San Francisco requires vaccination card (some need booster as well) for indoor dining. Not all have outdoor dining. Best to be vaccinated if you visit San Francisco!

Do they offer dine in as of Aug 2021?

Yes, they do. You must provide proof of vaccination to dine. We just had a fabulous dinner there last night, highly recommended.

What is the corkage fee?

40$ for up to 2 bottles.

Are they offering dine in?

No. They were open for awhile but then San Francisco shut down again. I got the opportunity to eat there on my Birthday in October. Great as always and they hadn't raised their prices

What do the take out Menu look like?

The whole menu is available for takeout. It can be found at Harrisrestaurant.com. Let me know if you have any questions about the menu.

Olivier's Butchery is my spot for high-quality meats in San Francisco…read more The cuts are extensive here are and the meat is exceptional. Grass-fed options and dry-aged steaks stand out for their rich taste and are far superior to grocery store. They stock an impressive range, from beef and pork to poultry, and house-made sausages.

The staff are knowledgeable pros who offer spot-on advice on prep, aging, and pairings without any upselling.

The quality is always on point (you get what you pay for) and the process is easy to preorder. The main thing to plan for is the long wait in line to pick up your preorder. In prior years, I've usually picked up on Christmas Eve and the wait can exceed 90 mins to 2 hours depending on when you arrive - this is the case even when you doorbust at opening time. This year, we picked up on the 23rd and arrived around opening time, and it only took 30 minutes. There are also very high quality pantry goods to peruse and purchase, including pasta, mustards, spices, tinned goods, etc. Onto the meat: I preordered late this year so got 21 day aged prime rib roast (would usually aim for 45+ days), but honestly it was hard to tell the difference. I ordered the roast pre seasoned, cradled and tied for ease and it was very high quality, easy to cook and delicious. Shoutout to the very friendly and hardworking staff at Olivier's - I see yall fighting for your lives trying to control that line every year (lol). Thank you for your service!

We had a group of seven, and although the restaurant is on the smaller side, it felt comfortable and welcoming. Making a reservation was quick and easy, which made planning the celebration stress-free. The service was excellent from start to finish. Our server was attentive, friendly, and made sure everything came out in a timely manner. Every meal at the table was well-prepared, flavorful, and enjoyed by everyone in our party, which is always a win when you're dining with a larger group. My only critique is the tequila selection. As someone who appreciates additive-free reposado tequilas, I was hoping for a few more options. The only reposado available was Casamigos, so I would love to see them expand their selection to include more additive-free choices. That said, it didn't take away from an otherwise wonderful evening. Great food, great service, an easy reservation process, and a warm atmosphere made it a memorable place to celebrate a special milestone. We'd happily return the next time we're in San Francisco.

I have neuropathy and walk with a cane, a situation the afternoon staff graciously accommodated, escorting me upstairs in the elevator and allowing me to elevate my feet on a chair. My friend and I enjoyed our leisurely "big splurge" afternoon, with drinks and delicious lobster. When the shift apparently changed, a different employee (the manager?) came to the table, pulled the chair out from under my feet and said it was against restaurant policy to allow this. He was quite brusque. (It's salient to note we were practically the only people in this quite large restaurant, with miles of empty tables around us.) This effectively ended my visit as my feet would soon be numb. My friend had left a bit earlier, so I gathered my briefcase, coat and purse and made my way to the elevator. The wait staff looked on. Nobody offered a hand. A couple of days later I called management and let them know what happened. They said someone would follow up. Nobody did.

I love watching the dressing come together and the freshness of every ingredient being used. Just the aroma of the olive oil and parmesan cheese is amazing. The Caesar salad was dressed to perfection and perfectly crisp! Also got the oysters, because they were an absolute knock out the last time we were here. And still one of the best! It is quite literally the cleanest and freshest oyster I've ever had. Our waitress did an amazing job of explaining the whole menu in great detail. For dinner entree, we went with the ribeye, served with bone marrow to split between 2 with a side of the mac & cheese and accompanied with creamed horseradish to give the steak an extra kick. To be honest, that steak needs nothing extra. It is "melt in your mouth" tender and extremely flavor. I love the addition of the bone marrow because it enhances the richness of the steak. The mac & cheese is also very indulgent and rich. We were way too full for dessert so we went with a ball of the espresso gelato and were given complimentary carrot cake bites which were soooo gooodddd.
