Chicken and waffles + mushroom omelet at rise over run
Matthew F.

The chicken and waffles were amazing! As well as the service and ambiance was amazing.

Nathan B.

This place is on the roof of the Timbri Hotel. (Enter the lobby, pass the front desk, veer right to the elevators, press 13 on the screen.) The hotel is unfortunately across from the shady tenderloin, but once you enter the lobby everything feels high end. Once on the rooftop we had a great spot with a great view. The service was spotty but the food was great. Especially the fried chicken. Order it! We hit this spot before a concert at the Warfield. The line for the Warfield wraps the block all the way to the front of the hotel. As we finished dinner we got right in line.

Couscous with added chicken (couscous was great, though the chicken was a little dry)
Clarissa C.

Rooftop bars are rare in SF, and this one is great! We were able to get a table on Friday night without a reservation (though it was a bit difficult getting seated outside). All of the servers were friendly and attentive, making sure we had blankets and refilling our waters. The drinks and food were great. Shoutout to the fried chicken & biscuits as well as the couscous.

This is a beautiful rooftop restaurant. There's outdoor seating with greenery and a beautiful view. The service was nice and friendly. I got the breakfast sandwich and it was bombbb. The bread was fluffy but not heavy, the egg was well seasoned and I liked the sauce.

Very cute new rooftop bar! Even in this rainy weather is was lovely, they have a greenhouse structure where the bar is set up and seating and there is also lots of seating outside. Can't wait to come back in the summer. The staff were friendly and accommodating. They gave us a side of fries even though it wasn't on the menu. The drinks were different and good. Unfortunately no happy hour.

Burrata
Kat N.

All the dishes we ordered were actually really good except for the steak. Steak was supposed to medium rare and it was like well done and very dry. The burrata was delicious. A good portion and really creamy. Even though the crab cakes were small, it was all crab and good quality. The fried chicken was crispy and good (just slightly too salty). The main concern was the service. It was so slow and the server was basically non-existent. And it was so cold in the solarium. We asked them to keep the doors closed but they kept opening them. It's one of the worst service I've had in a long time.

Broccolini
Jean-Marie W.

Simple menu but tasty. The sweet and spicy preserved lemon was good in the couscous but it didn't have the rich broth and additional vegetables I'm used to. The crab cakes were great. And the fish and chips were outstanding. They made use fantastic mocktails even though it wasn't on the menu.

Came before a show with a reservation at 5 pm. Wasn't crowded at all. We sat inside the greenhouse. Such a beautiful spot with plenty of outdoor seating. Would be nice to come here when the weather is warmer. We had the Cheeseburger and fries with cocktails. All hit the spot. Service was kind and mostly served by the bartenders.

Brocollini

Came here for a date and was surprised at the food quality since a lot of reviews mentioned that there was room for improvement there. Good: - The solarium is beautiful and watching the sun set from inside is magical, it's a great date spot - The burrata was amazing and I loved the bread it came with too - nice and grilled and had this jam on it that was sweet - The royale with cheese was huge and tasty, average burger but hit the spot - The broccolini was amazing, really nice and lots of kick Bad: - Location is sketch given the Tenderloin but it's a really nice place once you get inside - Service is a bit slow and a little curt - Expensive Overall would come again!

Restaurant is located in the Hilton Curio Collection. Used to be The Line Hotel. Elevators take you to the roof top restaurant which has amazing views of the city. The dining and bar areas are decorated nicely, mid-century modern vibe. Everything we order tasted good. We went for brunch before the Broadway Show at Orpheum Theater, a 10 min. walk. Would recommend for those looking for a good place to dine before or after the show.

While on a work trip to SF, I wanted to unwind and enjoy the sunset...and boy did I HIT THE JACKPOT! This private, cozy and intimate rooftop gave all the relaxation and sunset views imaginable! The service staff was very prompt and helped me decide on a mocktail during my visit. I ended up ordering food to go (forgot to take a photo) and it was absolutely delicious. Their take on a classic cheeseburger was refreshing and tasty.

Cheeseburger
Yvonne F.

Based on the reviews, this spot is known for its brunch and rooftop scene. I visited on a Friday evening with a 9 PM reservation. Since my partner and I were staying at the hotel, it seemed like a convenient choice. The host and servers were kind and attentive. We started with the crab cakes, which I appreciated for being packed with Dungeness crab. They were a bit salty for our taste but still delicious. For our mains, we opted for the fried chicken--a popular choice--which came with biscuits and three sauce options. While tasty, it didn't stand out. My partner had the cheeseburger, which he also found good but not exceptional. The ambiance at Rise Over Run is romantic--ideal for a date night or an evening out with friends. Given the hotel's location, I recommend taking public transportation or an Uber.

Cute cocktail bar on the top of a hotel. We came here at night as a group of 6 and we were able to get seated pretty quickly inside. We were able to go outside and enjoy the views of the city. I tried the Szechuan of a Kind ($18), which I was hoping would have more of a Szechuan spice, but it was still unique and good. I would come back here again if I was in the area!

Planning to go in December. Would love a view of the city, but can't handle the cold. Are there any heatlamps available in outdoor seating? Thank you!

Yes there are many

What's the best seating? Garden or solarium?

Depends on the weather! If it's nice out, definitely ask for the garden seating. I'd recommend the "fire pit" area if it's available ( it's shaded and you can see the view). The solarium is super cool if it's chilly out, though.

Is there a minimum spend limit for a group reservation of 25?

Are kids allowed in the rooftop area?

HI There, Yes, kids are more than welcome!… Read more

How is the music during the week?

On a weeknight around happy hour, the music on the outside roof top deck was a decent level - not too loud and not too soft - they had a setup for live music, which I assume came on later that evening (a Thursday), but it had not started between the… Read more

Do hotel guests need reservations?

You can go up the host without a reservation.

Is there a dj on the weekends?

Hi Alea, We don't have a dj on the weekends, however, we do have a dj every Thursday from 7pm-10pm on the rooftop terrace.

Are dogs allowed?

Hi Julie, Thanks for reaching out. We only allow service animals in our restaurants.

Cool bar with bites in the Mission District. We got there shortly after it opened at 4pm on Friday…read moreafternoon. I was craving a refreshing craft cocktail and got one with the Green Emmanuelle. I liked the cardamom in the Beauty Mark as well that my partner ordered. We ordered shishito peppers and mushroom bahn mi sliders. The mushroom bahn mi sliders were amazing - the quality fillings and taste of the soft bun - I was unexpectedly hit with a bite of spice from maybe jalapeño seeds left but didn't sour my experience. The shishito peppers ended up being extremely spicy as well, those are usually just a few spicy and not the majority. The roasted lemon and salt was a wonderful combo but just too spicy to eat. However, the server very kindly removed it from our bill without us asking. We order the crostini because we were still hungry and that was an absolute hit. Delicious med-soft crostini with luscious berries and sweet honey. I didn't care my hands got sticky as it was soooo good! Great experience, I would be weary if the peppers as I'm a bit spice-intolerant but everything else was spot-on.

I definitely prefer this version to the more traditional version that just adds water. 4.5/5: Pigs in a Blanket $15. The puff pastry is very buttery, and the sausage is higher-end.

I have to preface my review by stating I absolutely adore Catholic art, antiques, relics and such,…read moreso this definitely influenced my decision to check this place out; but I am beyond happy that my curiosity led me here. The ambiance was perfect for a nightcap. I visited Holy Water with relatives who live in the area but hadn't visited the place themselves before. Drinks we ordered include: * Mexican Firing Squad - Our favorite of all. We are classic paloma cocktail lovers, and this drink provided everything we enjoy in a paloma and more. Tart, smooth, and all-around divine. * Southern Exposure - The celery in this really awakens the senses. Very refreshing. * Zombie - Boldest drink we've tried yet. Haunted us the remainder of the night (in a good way). * Poinsettia - Wish this wasn't just a holiday menu item. It's fabulous. * Caribbean Snow Day - The playful kid's cup this came served in had us fooled. This eggnog sure packed a punch. Can't wait to be back and check out what other rotating or seasonal drinks they provide. Lastly, major shout out to the hard-working bartender last night who provided kind, prompt and attentive service on top of greeting all patrons coming in, taking orders and bussing tables. You rock!

This place had a nice chill vibe despite being crazy busy. We were still able to find some decent seats and bask in the glow of good old JC. The place almost had a hall in the wall vibe with the twinkle lights but still boasted an impressive selection of drinks. Despite how busy it was, the staff was super friendly and bartenders were moving fast through the requests. Sometime at a bar you can feel ignored but it was not like that here. Cellphone signal is not great but they have wifi inside as well.

Honestly quite impressed with the food! I wish they served their matcha drinks in the evening since…read moreI wasn't able to try them, but being able to try the food was also worth it. My friend and I didn't have a reservation since we thought a Thursday early dinner wouldn't be busy! We arrived just in time - there was a little wait when we arrived around 5pm, but there was a cancellation so we were able to get seated at the bar instead of the outdoor patio :) Everything we ordered was amazingggggg! I was quite impressed since it seemed more of a cocktail bar bite vibes. It is a bit pricy though, but I can't say my money spent was not worth it. I definitely want to come back and try their matcha drinks though. The only downside is the location since there's not much parking during the day.

The matcha itself was pretty strong and pronounced in flavor, which I enjoyed. The cream top was quite thick on top and didn't have any added sweetness so it was more of a textural element more than anything else. It also had some kinako powder on top which I thought was a nice touch! This was my first time getting to sit inside the restaurant and it had a nice broody/speakeasy vibe to it. There was also an outdoor patio that you could enjoy as well. I know that Shoji turns into a restaurant at night so I can definitely see how this would be a great spot for a date night. However, during the day, the space was even being used by customers as a meeting space/study space. I would be back again if I were in the area, but like most SF spots, parking was an absolute nightmare!
