The negative reviews are such a joke lol I'm surprised some of them didn't get flagged for violating T&C Anyway! It's difficult where to start. Food? Ambiance? Service? My wife and I are gratefully no strangers to this level of cuisine. I can't speak on her behalf but this set the bar for me. I'm no food critic by any means but I'd give this a solid 4 Michelin stars (yes, I realize that's not a thing but just let me be) The antelope dish stole the show for us. I can't even... but it was undoubtedly the best piece of meat I've ever tasted. Our wonderful host, Carolina, was such a sweetheart from the very beginning. A incredibly huge thank you as well for the wine guru, Molly, for crafting such a unique experience with the pairing options to go with nearly every dish. Sean is another important piece to the puzzle as his cocktail program is something you'd find in a speakeasy's hidden speakeasy. Price-wise: was it worth it? Every dollar. OH. Don't get me started on the croissant. I had a ratatouille moment while eating that. The only critique I have is that they wouldn't let us purchase the sake dispenser. Oh wells. read more

Wow. Every single dish, from start to finish, was phenomenal. Excellent service, excellent wine recommendations, and extraordinary food. This was one of the best Michelin experiences I ever had. Hands down, would come back. read more

My husband took me to Saison for my birthday this year and it did not disappoint! When you make reservations online, Saison will call to confirm your reservation, food restrictions etc beforehand which is always a plus in case you have any food restrictions and they can prepare alternative dishes! This time around I was pregnant so I couldn't eat certain things and they replaced it with something else which was still awesome! I love that they also have an open kitchen so you can see what is going on. We actually sat by the bar so we didn't see very much but it was still nice to see from afar. Overall service was excellent and the food was delicious! It's not an everyday meal that you can go to but definitely worth it to celebrate your birthday, anniversaries etc with your love ones! Thanks Saison for a wonderful meal! read more

Every dish was a beautiful composition of flavor, precision, and creativity -- clearly crafted with passion and mastery. The staff was warm, attentive, and made us feel like the evening was curated just for us. Special thanks to Chef Lee for the unforgettable birthday magic and for the rare invitation into the heart of the kitchen. Not everyone gets that kind of behind-the-scenes moment -- it felt personal, thoughtful, and incredibly special. Saison isn't just a restaurant -- it's a memory. One that I'll be talking about for a long, long time. read more

This was simply a perfect meal in every way. They deserve another Michelin star. I booked on open table and received a call the day before to confirm reservations and clarified because my husband mentioned he'd prefer not to have seafood. If you don't have any I'm allergic restrictions he would like to tell you to just try the dishes. Everything was impeccable and not only plated beautifully but also delicious.We also added a reserve wine tasting and they kindly allowed us to split a tasting because I said I can't drink very much. We also added an uni toast and wagyu supplement, both highly recommend. However the wagyyu could have had a better crust. Our table was near the kitchen so we could see the art being made and it's nice to be able to see the orchestra performing together. Another highlight was our wonderful sommelier,he actually told us about the history of the wines whereas other places I've been the sommelier often just pours and leaves after stating the wine name and year. Staff were very friendly and welcoming. My favorite dishes were the first bite of sturgeon and cavier and the cod. But honestly there was not a single dish I didn't like. I was impressed the host talked my husband into trying the tasting menu without substitutions and discovering he enjoyed caviar and cod. This has been my most enjoyable Michelin star dinner in the US so far, highly recommend. read more

Came with a few friends for an early weekday dinner and this place did not disappoint! The space looks so high end but not stuffy, so we felt comfortable dining with large group casually. Their presentation is great too especially the first starter course with all the appetizers. There were some great first bites with oyster, tomato, tuna and duck liver. It was so creative and really showcased the quality of the produce. This was followed by brioche, caviar, cod, cucumber dish, guinea hen, antelope, melon and dates. And some delicious last bites for dessert. Everything was really good and beautifully presented. It was a good amount of food where you do get full, without being overly stuffed read more

Celebrated my 2 year anniversary at Saison! How lucky am I to get the chance to celebrate my love with another love... food that is. Known for their beautiful open wood fire, Saison is a 2 star michelin restaurant that is truly well deserved. The play on Asian flavor profiles and the dark, cabin like interior make dining here a once in a lifetime experience that you cannot find elsewhere. We opted for the Tasting Menu by the Kitchen for the two of us and an INCREDIBLE PRO TIP THAT YOU CANNOT MISS OUT ON: Add the uni toast. It is not apart of the pre fixe menu but it truly is what Saison is known for and will probably be the star of the show. A 2 biter that will leave you needing more. The other noteable dishes during my meal were the Rabbit and the Antelope. First timer with trying Antelope and it was amazing! Saison checks all the boxes when it comes to creativity. A comprehensive meal from start to finish, including the drinks, palette refreshers, and desserts. Not a single bad dish (as expected). Truly an experience. You don't know what you are eating as you don't get the menu until the end of the meal, but don't fret because they explain each meal thoroughly. The food portions at first seemed small, or maybe I just felt like I needed more of everything. Towards the end of the meal I found myself getting way too full. (Don't worry, I kept eating until the end of it!) Saison is located just near Oracle Park, so if you're coming on a game day I would allocate extra time to search for parking. Service is of course, impeccable. Interior is truly breathtaking. From the bar to the comfy pillows at the bench seats to the glossy wooden tables.... to the open kitchen where you can hear all the cooks say "Yes Chef!" - Saison is beautiful! read more

Fantastic experience overall. We did the abridged tasting menu and added caviar and drinks. For the service, everyone was very approachable and attentive, worked as a team and stepped in whenever necessary. The food also exceeded expectations. We've dined at many 1 stars but this was levels past those. The first bites really impress - set you up for a preview of what's to come. The caviar, salmon, and antelope were lightly smoked with a fruit wood, probably cherry or apple - Just enough to complement the protein. Those dishes were the unforgettable highlights. While great dishes, the amberjack had a gelee on top that was well balanced for me, but too tart for my partner. The same was true for the marcona almond dessert: excellent overall but had a few extremely tart dots of gelee. Maybe a proper wine pairing with those dishes (we didn't get that) would've helped. Only confusing parts were the truffle brioche shaped like a chocolate croissant and the guinea hen. The latter had some awkward textures from the veggies and dumplings, and the former just didn't seem to fit with the Guinea hen -- could maybe be a standalone bread dish with smoked butter or something, as an inter-dish palette cleanser. Anyways I'm nit picking. Will definitely need to go back and sit closer to the kitchen. read more

Amazing experience! Shout out to bev director Molly for making our experience feel super special :) Saison is def on my list of favs now - every course felt well thought out and unique, with the desserts especially blowing us away. My favorite was surprisingly the pork (neck?) w/ golden raisin puree as well as the dungeness crab tart! Got the A5 wagyu add-on and it was fine - was missing the char and the wagyu flavor I expected, but maybe would try the uni next time! read more

It's a well deserving 2 star, bordering on 3. The service is friendly and warm without being too much. The location is on a pretty random street, but once inside it's cozy, like being at a nice ski lodge. The food was creative and delicious, and I enjoyed that diners were turned around to face the kitchen to watch the show. Well worth it for a really special occasion. read more

Loved our experience at Saison. From the first moment we went in, it felt like we were taken care of. We sat at the corner with a view of the entire kitchen. The food was paced to come out pretty soon after we finished each dish. With the wine pairing, I was absolutely stuffed by the end of the meal. Loved most of the food we tried and the wine pairing was excellent. They had fairly reasonable pours, I probably could split one in the future. caviar costal seaweeds - this dish comes with so much caviar and perfectly paired with champagne, definitely one of my favorites for the night. 5/5 spiny lobster & lamb broth of its shells - excellent option, really loved this dish as well. the broth was stellar. First time having lamb tartare. 5/5 black cod, pine mushroom, geoduck clam - also loved this. Paired well with the wine. 5/5 carrot harissa - carrot was too chewy for my liking brioche red miso butter - came as a side for the carrot, honestly liked this more. 3/5 sea urchin grilled sourdough - love uni, like that there was enough uni for the toast. 4/5 duck - heart & gizzard. duck sausage with nasturtium leaf Heart was the tastiest thing, duck was juicy. 4/5 wagyu - A5 supplement that was split. I liked it but it's not really done any differently than anywhere else. 4/5 s'mores - neat dish, definitely a huge novelty factor pine, chigory graham cracker. 5/5 lemon poppy seed cake - tasty treat for our anniversary stroopwafel - took this home as we were too full read more

Food highlights: uni toast, wagyu beef (OMG), and halibut, which we were told is a recent addition. Wine pairings were thoughtful and sometimes unexpected- in a good way. Staff are extremely organized and friendly. It got a little loud at times, but we could always have a conversation. Love watching the kitchen crew do their magic. read more

Saison delivers a riveting, ember-kissed tasting menu (10-12 courses) where spot prawns, brassica broth, and aged duck all pass through an open hearth, giving every bite a whisper of smoke. The two-Michelin-star kitchen pairs flawless pacing with warm, unpretentious service, while the sommelier's deep list keeps pace with the fire-driven dishes. Yes, the experience runs about $300 before drinks and service, but for a front-row seat to California produce meeting primal flame, it's money well spent. read more

Great wine selection and service. Though pricey, there are some excellent happy hour offerings which start early in the afternoon. One fun happy hour feature is that you can get a tiny taste of Dom Perignon for like $35. Really good snacks too.

Saison - Tiny sips of Dom and charcuterie - New American Near Me - San Francisco, California

I had always wanted to try this restaurant when I lived here 12 years ago, and I finally had the chance to try the bar experience. It was spectacular! The small dishes are selected from the opening and final courses of their full tasting menu, making this the perfect introduction to one of the premier restaurants in the country. Peter, my server and host, was the perfect gentleman--gracious, attentive, and knowledgeable. I can't wait to return with a friend to experience the full tasting menu. The total bill for one was $205, which included the service charge and 2 additional items: a cocktail and their famous uni toast. read more

0 stars if I could!!!! Stray away :( The only plus side of this $1K meal (yes you see it correctly $1000+ meal) is our seating view into the kitchen. The serving of caviar was great but then each dish afterwards went downhill. Was served a bunch of overly sugar diabetes desserts as courses Disappointing. Monumental anniversary celebration at this scammy restaurant. read more

The food is truly next level. The amount of flavors we experienced was incredible and complementary. It was like a story told through the palet. While we did have a server, every single person was there to make sure we had a great experience. read more

From the moment we arrived, the service stood out--warm, attentive, and thoughtful. The staff walked us through the menu and wine pairings in a way that felt genuine and personalized. The food was great. The caviar with creamy crab was rich and indulgent, and all the meat dishes were perfectly cooked--light, flavorful, and beautifully plated. Every dish felt crafted with care and attention to detail. Dessert was a fun and interactive surprise--they brought out everything for us to make our own s'mores over a live fire, which made the experience feel extra special. The atmosphere is modern yet cozy, with an open kitchen where you can see the chefs in action. It felt intimate and welcoming, like they genuinely want you to enjoy every moment. Next time, I want to try the bar experience--it looks like a more condensed menu that pairs drinks with bites. read more

High quality food and service in a cozy spot that makes you forget the city. I went for their abridged tasting menu with an addition of their uni toast, and everything was impeccable. Everyone there was fun, friendly, and informative. Of course each dish was put together thoughtfully, but I really loved the addition of teas and beverages that came at points throughout the meal. Everything tasted fresh and you get such a lovely diversity of flavors and textures that progress throughout the meal without being overwhelming. These days I feel that many restaurants and tasting menus overdo it, but this is an example of doing just the right amount. read more

Had a nice recent experience at Saison - beautiful restaurant, solid service team, a nice menu/meal. My menu was overall pretty good, but only 2-3 dishes really stood out as truly exceptional. love the open kitchen, I was seated nearby so had a great view of everything going on - it's run very well, super clean and quiet. Lots of good technique, highlighting very seasonal ingredients, nice textures and presentations throughout, just some of the dishes didn't feel very cohesive/finished (at least at the 2/3 star level). Favorite dishes - caviar, white asparagus and geoduck, the hokkaido uni toast, and the rabbit loan/leg with morel and bone sauce. Also enjoyed the sunchoke dessert and chanterelle stroopwafel. read more

really good experience here - ordered the abridged menu and added the uni and wagyu because I was told those were musts -and also got drink pairing as well which was excellent. Service was definitely worthy of 2 stars. Taste was really good. Atmosphere was also very clean with a nice AC. read more

I came with my girlfriend to celebrate her birthday. This was our first 2 Michelin star restaurant experience together so we had high expectations. Right off the bat, the service here is stellar! Definitely can see why they earned those stars as every course and action you do within the restaurant, the team is paying such close attention. Really appreciated it as it added to the experience. For the food itself it is a 12-course meal with the ability to add additional items like the sea urchin bread or wagyu. We opted to add the sea urchin as many other reviews highly recommended it and we could see why as it was packed with umami flavor that coated your mouth. I just wish it was bigger than 2 bites so we could enjoy it more. Each course was well thought out and had many flavors/technique going on. Now the both of us are not food critics nor do we know what actually goes on with making these dishes, but we could still appreciate the idea behind it. By the end of the meal, I wasn't full, but was satisfied. Standout items were the black cod (crispy skin and moist fish), guinea hen (juicy and tender), and melon dessert (crisp and refreshing). For drinks we ordered the Oz and the White Lotus. The White Lotus was great, it was a milk punch based cocktail and had a nice fruity flavor. The Oz was a gin based cocktail with melon and lime I think. I though this one was just okay as I was expecting more melon flavor. Now for the bill to be transparent: $656.00 for two $96.00 for two sea urchin $56.00 for two cocktails $48.48 SF mandate (6%) $161.60 service charge (20%) $87.80 tax =$1,105.88 TOTAL Do we think it was worth over $1.1K for this meal that took us about 2 hours to complete? No. There was just something that felt like it was missing from the courses offered to really justify the amount. I think if the sea urchin or wagyu was already on the set course menu instead of having it be an additional add-on could make things worth it to us specifically, but to others maybe they feel the price is fair. The experience and service itself was spectacular as the staff did not miss a beat as each item was well presented with such care. Even the small touches by the staff for them to wish my girlfriend a happy birthday, walk us to the door, provide us with a goody bag to-go was top notch. Saison deserves its Michelin stars and I recommend coming to experience it at least once, but I don't see this as needing a return visit from us. read more

S.O. booked this spot as a surprise for valentine's day and boy was it a surprise. I've never had so many flavors in one bite at a time, and so beautifully plated. What a delight. Service was also fantastic. Seating here was intimate, although a bit uncomfortable to be honest haha. Still, worth the time and $. Highlights - 3 day roasted carrot: roasted over the hearth for 3 days, chewy and sweet - Sashimi yellowtail: they kindly cooked this for me since I can't eat raw fish, S.O. Loved it. The depth of the sauce made it to go with it was out of this world. The fish gelee was beautiful - Parker rolls: 65 year old starter was crazy! Miso butter was great, but the olive oil was on point - Scallop: large, meaty and perfectly cooked - Buckwheat tea: served at the end, roasted there and they give you some to take home. Super tasty/earthy Overall, enjoyed this meal a lot for our special occasion. Was definitely a huge treat to come here. read more

----- review after visiting another Michelin two star restaurant ----- Give Saison half star up to 4.5. Love some of the surprising taste and how the different tastes are mixed in one dish (very delicately merged). 0.5 point off for the room for full menu and the small portion. ----- review right after ------- Very flavorful dining experience. I can tell from the dishes and bites that the chef put thoughts on them. Ordered the abridged menu. Beautiful and upscale environment with elegant tea cups. Clean kitchen. Service was great and considerate (let me choose my meat cutting knife) given the fixed charge anyway. But just a couple minor things when I went as a solo diner. The food portion was a bit small (even I am a lady). Some pictures of sides don't match on google map reviews don't match with mine (truffle croissant was served with layer dish not with the starters, missing some truffle custard/steamed egg bowl, missing white sugarish bite - only two half pieces of cannolis - duo diners got the white piece). I know these are minor points that's why I mentioned earlier that overall experience was nice. Better to standardize every delivery to the customer so won't leave the impression that a restaurant may trick here or there. Overall the tastes are great! I will return. read more

Our dinner at Saison was one of the best meals I've ever had. It was also THE most expensive meal I've ever had. The food and service were outstanding. It was a great way to celebrate our anniversary. But wow, expensive. I'd love to go back for the less involved bar menu one day soon. read more

Came here for a birthday dinner and I truly cannot express how much love I have for this restaurant. The food was absolutely amazing - it was a special collaboration dinner which was fun to watch with their open kitchen dining space. The small bites in the beginning (especially the play on the tea egg) were so good. Another favorite of course was the sea urchin (we've decided this will be my new love language). All the staff were also so attentive and sweet, and I loved the birthday cake they brought out at the end as well! Overall, could not say enough nice things about this place, and highly recommend! read more

My partner took me here for my birthday. We loved it! Can't believe it took us so long to come, especially since I'm a fan of open fire cooking, but I think it was partially bc we hadn't been wowed when we went to Angler. Well we were certainly wowed here! I was raving about Saison to friends afterwards. We were seated side by side which I do enjoy when it happens, and we had a view of the kitchen the entire time which I also love. The staff was friendly and attentive throughout the night and really helped my birthday feel special. I loved the touches of fun throughout the meal like picking out our knives for the meat courses and picking out sake cups for our sake pairing. It was so difficult to decide in both cases since the cup and knife options were so beautiful and distinctive. Easy to find one that would suit your taste. There was a cool contraption that held our sake, keeping it chilled. We both had fun refilling our sake cups by lifting it up and pressing the plunger to release the liquid. Speaking of drinks, we also shared the wine pairing. All of the pours felt generous, and all the drinks we had were great and paired well with the dishes. We also got to see the aged lamb for one of the courses. It had been aged for 18 days if I recall correctly, and my partner noted that they had obviously studied the aging to determine that was the perfect number of days. All of the food we had was delicious. One of the highlights was the caviar dish. They have a custom caviar made cured with BBQ salt they provide which gave it a nice smoky flavor, and it combined so well with the custard and geoduck. My partner normally isn't into caviar (and so will often pass on it if it's an optional supplement), and he raved about it the whole time. We both felt like we could easily eat a huge bowl of it. This was the second course of the night and felt like it really set the bar for how good everything after would also be. Another course I quite enjoyed was the crab one which featured crab prepared 3 different ways. We marveled at the trout and how crispy they were able to get the skin while not overcooking even the part of the body closest to the skin. My partner kept wondering how they did it, and I was going to ask the chef if he came by our table again (he had presented a few of the earlier dishes) but unfortunately we didn't see him again to inquire. I love uni, so I could not resist the uni toast supplement which they said has been a long-standing staple of the menu. It tasted incredible although a little messy for me to eat, especially since the bread was softer than I expected. I worried a little about its structural integrity but it held up. The lamb I mentioned from earlier was also incredibly good. It came with a lamb belly skewer too that was quite seasoned, right on the edge where I worried it might be too seasoned but really grew on me. The desserts were great, not too sweet, which is one of the top dessert compliments from an Asian haha. I would highly recommend this restaurant. Definitely would consider returning. read more

Well Saison sets the bar for service for sure. The staff was incredibly attentive, kind and knowledgeable.I especially enjoyed the wine pairing with my food, the sommelier did a fantastic job and taught me some things about wine. The restaurant itself was beautiful and laid out well, the lighting and ambience was perfect and seating was incredibly comfortable. So much so that after a long day of walking I was trying not to fall asleep. Now to the food, there were some standout courses but overall it was just okay and I've had much better at the price point. The tea to start out was the best I've had in my life, the oyster course was phenomenal. Followed by the caviar and crab both of which missed the mark. The white asparagus with the caviar just had a weird consistency with not a great flavor combination. The trout, rabbit and antelope courses were also just fine, nothing really to write about. The Wagyu addon was possibly the best piece of steak i have had in my life. The desserts definitely missed the mark and the stroopwafel was way off. Overall it was a great experience and I enjoyed myself but it felt like the courses could have complemented each other more read more

Came here for our anniversary. We have been wanting to dine at Saison for many years and we were very excited to finally book a table. Meal started out nice. We were sat at an amazing table and were secluded in a corner, fantastic. Excellent view of the kitchen and was just a nice place to sit and enjoy the meal. Although no amuse bouche, instead, tea. Which was good, but it was basically honey tea and something I can find from almost any top quality tea company if I'm being honest. Oyster with green strawberry and celery was balanced in flavor but underwhelming and not memorable as a starter, especially with no amuse bouche/small bites. My wife doesn't eat oyster so an incomparable substitute of celery and two thin slices of green strawberry was served. For this caliber of restaurant I don't understand this substitute, as it's inadequate to say the least. Also I didn't understand the main course - while I had antelope, which was cooked nicely but had overly sweet components (huckleberry) - she was served, a carrot. Which actually the carrot was incredible and delectable, and while I realize the amount of work and time that went into that carrot, it was certainly a humble comparison and a fraction of the cost to antelope. Her dish also included harissa, which was used twice in two separate courses. This shouldn't happen at a restaurant of this caliber. As a private chef for 25 years for very high end clients and with a vast knowledge of all cuisines and food in general, I found the servers descriptions extremely lacking in content. I want to know what's in the dish. The details. What have the kitchen and chefs been spending hours and days preparing. This does a disservice to the intensely hard work done by the kitchen team. I understand over wording can be too much, but even when I asked questions they were short as if they didn't know. What was interesting was with the wine pairing, long descriptions were given and even stories and history of the wineries, and it dragged on and on considerably far too long. I wish that detail was given to the food! Service was robotic and not genuine or sincere, as if they were going through the motions. At this level I would expect more personality and humility. The biggest disappointment of the evening was when the crab course came out. First of three parts was a "salad" and mine was delicious and I enjoyed it. However, my wife had a very long human hair in her course. It was not hers as this hair was a different color and was also layered into the lettuce - when I tried to pull it out, it was entwined into the lettuce. I don't understand how this is possible with so many eyes composing this dish? They were not very apologetic about it at the time, perhaps in shock it happened as I know this doesn't happen, but it did. I did not take pictures of this course because we were simply in a state of shock. We kept looking at each other in awe of what to do and how to react. Completely caught us off guard. When received the bill they did comp us the uni toast, but this certainly left us disappointed and questioning everything. Memorable dishes: Geoduck and caviar - amazing Ocean trout - new & excellent dish Uni toast - should of ordered two Sunchoke dessert - outstanding For over $950, we had many amazing moments, some sub par ones, and even horrific (the hair) for this level of dining. It was nice to try and check off my list - I likely will not return. read more

When I came to this restaurant eight years ago, it was almost all men with long legs. Now it's almost half women. I'm glad to see that women are treated equally in the workplace It's very thoughtful that the restaurant has prepared celebratory cards signed by the entire staff to mark the anniversary with advance reservations Whether it is dish innovation is tableware collocation, taste online, it is true that it is the old rice 3, although it has fallen out of the star for many years now, but it is still stable for 8 years.

Came here for the abridged menu ($218pp as of April 2024) - we opted for the wagyu add-on and a couple of cocktails as well. Ambiance was more relaxed than I'd expected which was a pleasant surprise- the music, furniture, and decor created a very welcoming and cozy environment. Service was impeccable and our table was well-attended throughout our meal. Every dish of our meal was clearly well-executed.

This place has been on my list forever and I finally got the chance when visiting SF for work. It started off with a tea that was very nice especially given the cold and rainy weather in SF. Next came the caviar, probably the course I looked forward to the most. It was presented really nicely and tasted even better. The next few seafood courses were really fresh as well and cooked very well. The bread was very soft and was definitely a lot! The uni toast was great, but the bread was a little soft. The bison was also so tender and flavorful and the bone broth was so clear and comforting. The desserts were a great way to top off the dinner, but I was definitely already really full. They send you off with a sealed envelope of the night's meal and some goodies. It was great to sit in front of the kitchen and watch the chefs. Overall, great experience, great service, and great food. read more
