    Stopped in at MKT for some cocktails with friends on the early evening of Thursday, October 17, 2024, at around 5 PM. This was my first time at the urban-chic place which left a great first impression on me. Residing in San Francisco's downtown Four Seasons, we pulled into the hotel's garage for valet parking. We were the first to arrive and occupy a table at the swanky barroom with hardwood floors, wood paneled walls and granite top bar. We picked a nice spot at a half booth table next to a window with a city view. The cozy table adjacent to the fireplace also caught my eye as a luxurious place to lounge with drinks and bites. The entire floor, including the elegant restrooms, was polished and pristine during our visit. Ray ordered his usual Old Fashioned and I went with one of MKT's cocktails, the LAVENDER SOUR ($24). My purple drink topped with foam and edible poppies tasted as beautifully exquisite as it looked. Foo-foo drink with low alcohol content it was not; two or three of those down and I was enjoying a nice buzz. We were served complimentary small bowls of popcorn and nuts which were nice to munch on while we sipped on our alcoholic beverages. Manny was our excellent server. He was attentive and informative. We enjoyed our conversations with him as he waited on us. A delightful time we had at MKT's bar. The opulent ambiance, fancy cocktail menu and high-end service piqued my interest to dine at their restaurant one day.

    Had a late lunch here so it was bar menu only. We had the $72 hot dog tower which is three sausages (hot dog, boudin blanc, merguez) with fries. The fries were cold and the hot dogs lukewarm and flavorless. We had guac before which was good. The service was fine. They need a better bar menu and better food. For two people with two soft drinks the tab came to over $200.

    MKT in Four Seasons has so many wonderful holiday decorations, including a large christmas tree in the lobby and a festive bar. Though the service can be slower during holiday season, our staff had such great attitude when they served us dishes. The pasta and duck were phenomenal and I highly recommend getting the Pappardelle Pasta. Definitely one of the best pastas i've had. I would skip out on the Salmon Crudo but the Octopus was extremely flavorful. The sea bass was also really well made. Definitely a great place for a special celebration.

    The Bauble bar at four seasons def has been receiving a lot of hype. You walk into the hotel and it's def very festive. The staff are all welcoming. Bauble itself is tucked away in the corner of the bar. A bit hard to find at first. Definitely a burst of the holidays in the tiny corner. Well dressed patrons..as it should be! Tried the Grinch, which had matcha, coconut, not too sweet or super strong. You only have an hour once you're in. Def would come back to the other festive drinks!

    Beautiful spacious restaurant beautiful lounge on the fifth floor. The food service noise level was all fantastic. For 4 people the bill was about $620 that included alcohol.

    The MKT Burger. I added bacon! Very delicious. Probably the best burger I've ever had!
    Brea M.

    I really enjoyed the burger here. It's delicious and on the bar bites menu. It had the freshest slice of tomato on it, with perfectly crispy lettuce and a high-quality, toasted bun. All crucial for an excellent burger. And of course quality meat. Beautiful bar/lounge area. Great staff/service. The ambiance is ideal. However, the prices are excessive. Guess you're also paying for the Four Seasons name!

    Rarely do I review a restaurant mid-visit, before leaving or let alone finishing my food. But the hospitality of staff and quality of food, their attentiveness to detail in serving made up for the 15 minute delay and exceeded my every expectation. MKT embodies the luxury brand of Four Seasons and offers a wide range of brunch options. The Lady had their Dungeness crab Benedict, I had their breakfast burger, and we got buttermilk pancakes on the side. The Dungeness crab had a fresh seafood taste that was not overpowering with the eggs cooked to Benedict perfection, and the breakfast burger had a bacon marmalade which kept it on the breakfast side of the menu and extremely flavorful. The vibe of the restaurant is exclusive with the lobby, having more dim lighting, exploding into gorgeous large windows, letting in tons of natural light when you are seated. A special place I will most certainly return to in the future. Shout out to Yuri who visited with me and the Lady multiple times throughout our dining experience and made us feel exclusive and welcome. The way he treats his staff is equally admirable.

    This is actually a really cool restaurant and bar located at the 4 seasons hotel in downtown San Francisco. The fish and cauliflower I ate was cooked to perfection. I highly recommend this place if you are staying in San Francisco for whatever reason. The service and the ambience of the place was excellent too. I give them 4 stars

    Joined an event with a party of four strangers dining here. Restaurant is located in four season in the city. Took elevator up and got in to our table. This is a beautifully and tastefully decorated establishment with a city view. I went with halibut and chocolate dessert with glasses of brut. Champagne was nice and refreshing. Halibut was tender yet flavorful. My favorite was definitely the dessert. The marshmallow and the chocolate s'more on the dark plate was perfection. Service was great. Super attentive. I would like to come back again with my friends.

    Dessert buffet

    Delightful restaurant. Excellent service, wonderful staff. Food was delicious and Mothers Day brunch had an epic FREE dessert buffet. Lots of dessert choices and beautiful Pricing was reasonable for a top hotel

    The fog city drink was strong, the Karl Lawrence Reserve was lovely

    And now we welcome the new year. Full of things that have never been -- Rainer Maria Rilke A last minute reservation for NYE resulted in a lovely dinner at MKT. A 6 course second seating with music and DJ to ring in 2025. The food was excellent...particularly the tuna amuse bouche, caviar course, truffle pasta and wagyu tenderloin. View of SF was pretty and we got a deal on a half bottle of Ridge 2015 Montebello when my first choice (the cheaper choice) was sold out. The DJ was heavy on 60's - 70's almost novelty hits, could have used some more funk or Prince. Service was outstanding. A great dinner at the last moment :-) Highly recommended! At least on NYE :-)!

    Armando, our waiter, made the experience very memorable with his remarkable service and gracious recommendations on what to order. Breakfast was decently priced for the area and we would definitely stop by again.

    Duck fat fries
    Leia H.

    Review for the bar service only. 10pm time frame. Duck fat fries fried hard, felt burnt and greasy (though I clearly made something work). Chicken sliders also fried hard kind of burnt presentation, no seasoning on chicken, brioche bun saved the taste. First Edition cocktail was a good time. Attentive service and good ambience from Bauble bar with DJ.

Coqueta's Gambas Negras is an absolute showstopper and a culinary masterpiece in how to elevate a Spanish classic. Instead of the standard sizzling garlic oil of traditional gambas al ajillo, Coqueta poaches head-on Gulf prawns in olive oil infused with a deeply savory, umami-rich black garlic and chili sauce. The prawns arrive incredibly soft, snappy, and dripping with flavor. The hidden magic, however, is the sauce left behind in the dish. It is dark, rich, complex, and slightly sweet from the fermented garlic. Make sure you ask for additional grilled country bread just to soak up every single drop of that oil, and last but not least the Pulpo à la Parrilla. The wood-grilled Mediterranean octopus is a flawless execution of texture and smoke. In my experience octopus is notoriously easy to overcook, but here it is charred to perfection on the outside with a light crust, while remaining beautifully tender and meltingly soft on the inside. It's served over a bed of freshly dug pimentón confit potatoes. The potatoes act like sponges, absorbing the rich, smoky pimentón (Spanish paprika) and olive oil. It's a rustic, deeply satisfying dish. The topping for this visit was the staff, Alan was very attentive and made choosing items off the menu easy with his recommendations.

I had a hard time finishing it. There was a lot of sauce and a lot of different flavors going on. Yellowtail is already a very soft fish, and adding the tomatoes just didn't work for my palate. The overall flavor profile was just a little too much for me. I also tried the deviled eggs, which were decent. I'd definitely come back for drinks and to enjoy the outdoor bar, but I probably wouldn't order the food again.

The host was hilarious, friendly, and just the right amount of sassy. To get in, they asked if we had anything to pawn. We were caught completely off guard! So here's your heads-up: bring something small to 'pawn' if you want to fully enjoy the experience. We didn't have reservations, but since there were only two of us, they were able to squeeze us in for an hour, which was plenty of time to enjoy the food and drinks. I was pleasantly surprised to find orange wine on the menu. Coming from Oregon where it's everywhere, I didn't realize it was harder to find in the bay. Now for the food: do not leave without ordering the octopus. It was incredibly tender and perfectly cooked. Easily the standout dish of the night! We also had the salmon roe over eggs, which was fresh and light. The only thing I'd skip next time is the 'charcuterie board'. For the price, it felt underwhelming with just a few slices of bread, cheese, and cured meat. The influencers were right - this place absolutely lives up to the hype. Come for the immersive speakeasy experience, stay for the food, and definitely make a reservation if you can!
