    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.

    The $72 hot dog tower, three lukewarm sausages on the bottom layer

    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!

    Brunch

    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.

Luckily, my friend had already been to Iron Horse Cocktails, and suggested we go there instead. Walking down the alleyway it is located in was a nice getaway from the otherwise hectic union square atmosphere. Walking in was also a neat experience that felt like we were stepping out of the city into a tiny pub. We also really liked the atmosphere inside and the cozy upper floor that had an interesting mix of old paintings and woodwork, creating an eclectic feel. I got the We've Got the Beet cocktail with mezcal, beet reduction, ginger, fresh citrus, thyme and firewater bitters. I love mezcal's smoky flavors and was drawn to the combination of ginger, citrus and mezcal flavors in the drink. The cocktail was very good and had a nice smokiness from the mezcal, along with the kick from the ginger and zest from the citrus, creating a refreshing and tasty drink. My friend got the About Thyme, with gin, blackberry liquor, black pepper thyme syrup and fresh citrus. We both really liked his drink as well, which had an interesting kick from the black pepper thyme syrup that offset the gin and blackberry liquor nicely. While we only had time to grab a drink each, we were both very happy with the drinks and would definitely come back the next time we're in the area.

Hire a good cook that knows how to make food well if you're going to be charging those prices - or train your staff better.

Arrived on a whim at around 6pm on a weekday and found a nice seat at the bar top. They have these little orb lights that can't be moved.

He also told me I was right on time for the saber champagne presentation -more on that in a sec. For drinks, I ordered the Hibiscus Spice and the Paradise cocktail. Both were super fruity and delicious! I had a great time sipping on this while chatting it up with a few folks at the bar. To nibble, I can never say no to ahi tuna tartare and this one was great! The most interesting little wafers, ahi tuna with some avocado cream and a little spicy sauce. I absolutely devoured these! So good! Now for the best part, the champagne presentation! A gentleman gave a little info session on on how this process is done and at the end he took a giant to a bottle of champagne to open it. Really Cool! What made this even better was that everyone at the bar got to snag a complimentary glass. What a treat! Super cute little hour of so sitting at the bar at the St. Regis.
