    Incredible. This place was amazing. I loved the set menu and the timing of all the dishes was perfect. When you are there your every need is taken care of and you are just so present in the moment. From the second I walked in it was 5 star service. Additionally, the food was phenomenal. It was so balanced, used seasonal produce, was plated beautifully, and was cooked to perfection. What an amazing place, I cannot wait to go back !

    This was my second time at trestle and the menu options were so good! We ordered a bottle of Pinot Noir from Santa Barbara that was excellent. They gave me a hand written note and a candle on my dessert to celebrate my birthday. So thoughtful and attentive staff. They made me feel special. Will be back!

    With the new Michelin awards just announced, I'd like to throw it back to this restaurant that has held a Michelin Bib Gourmand award for a decade. I had a 3 course dinner here for just $39 back then in 2022. Even though it has gone up to $52 for a 4 course meal now, it is still a budget friendly option for Michelin recommended dinning. We visited around Christmas, so the cozy little space felt extra festive. The restaurant is quite small, which added to the charm, though it did get pretty loud during dinner service. As for the food, both the presentation and flavors were decent but not particularly memorable. Nothing really stood out or left a lasting impression. That said, considering the price point and the Michelin recognition, I still think it is worth trying at least once. - Sweet Potato Soup - Pear & Arugula Salad - Arroz Con Pollo (+$12) - Butternut Squash Campanelle (+$12) - Braised Short Rib - Seared Salmon - Chocolate Doughnut Sundae - Key Lime Pie

    I really enjoyed this place. The food was very delicious. They have pre fixe menu that changes depending on what's in season. You get an appetizer, pasta dish, main and dessert. The price for quality and quantity was really worth it. On the night we went, I got the split pea soup, risotto with bacon and veggies, their steak main and sorbet for dessert. I honestly really enjoyed all the dishes, especially the steak that was cooked medium rare and the risotto. It was so flavorful and creamy. Got a glass of white wine to wash everything down. The only downside with service was that they didn't offer us a bread basket. We didn't realize this until the very end. Everyone else got bread baskets and were even asked if they wanted one. Our table was not informed so we felt a little left out. We asked our server at the end and he said we had to specifically ask for it from the beginning. Just a note for anyone else going.

    One of my favorite dining experiences in SF (and it's a tough category to win in)! This review is long overdue as I had an amazing experience at Trestle for a birthday dinner a whole year ago. By sheer luck, my birthday coincided with the 4-course for $45 promotion they were running for their 10-year anniversary. I had to jump at the opportunity, especially since the menu was built from the all time favorite items at the restaurant since their opening. I really couldn't think of a better way to experience a restaurant for the first time. While some set course meals have a few misses, this one was just hit after hit the entire way through. I really felt as if every course was complimentary, but different enough in their own way to stand on their own and make an impact. Tldr: the food was amazing! The icing on the cake (figuratively and literally) was just how far they went out of their way to make my birthday night special. Exceptional service, bringing out a complimentary dessert with a candle, and even leaving a personalized card elevated this experience to the next level. Would highly recommend paying Trestle a visit, and I can't wait for the next time I'm able to try their new menus myself!

    Such a great deal for a 4 course meal in the city for $52 per person. (Around $70 with tax and tip). Make sure to get a reservation in advance! Portion size was good and both my friend and I were stuffed by the time the dessert was out. They change up the menu frequently depending on what is in season which makes me excited for the next time I get to dine at Trestle. I will definitely be returning to Trestle!! Pro tip: street parking is free after 6pm!!

    Made a last minute reservation here for our anniversary dinner. Loved that they gave us a handwritten card and added little happy anniversary chocolates to our desserts! I thought the price was reasonable ($52 per person for four courses) compared to what I'm used to in Chicago, and the food seemed very fresh. We got one of everything. I love that the restaurant feels very intimate, almost like you are eating in a dining room at someone's house. The plates were small, but they filled me up. My favorite was the seared bistro steak, but I also really liked the rigatoni verde. The doughnuts with the raspberry sauce were the perfect dessert to end the meal. I wasn't super blown away by the flavors, though. I also wish that our waitress explained each dish to us after setting it down because the server who had the table next to us was doing that. I think she should have offered us bread too. We thought it was just given automatically because every table that sat down seemed to be getting it and we were questioning why we didn't get any, but apparently it was listed on the menu that you have to ask for it which was very easy to miss if you don't read closely enough. We ended up ordering it after we got our first course.

    Writing updates this recent to my previous one is a rare thing but I would like to commend the restaurant for my last visit. With visitors from a foreign country meeting me for weeknight dinner, I asked their cuisine and food preference since we only had this meal with their busy schedule. I made a 5:45 pm reservation on a Wednesday and the guests and arrived early. We were seated at the 2nd table to the right as the dining room started to fill. This is when things got strange (in a good way) as our waiter referenced me by my 1st name as did the host. I didn't think much of it as the experience started. The format remains the same with a set menu for a four-course meal with two options for each course. Just as a teaser, here is what I enjoyed. (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&start=72&select=mlOTp-ts6sk78BRSuZ6Yjw) - presentation was fine dining style, (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&start=72&select=WcbGi9YqoqsxqUOm4OgKuQ), (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&start=72&select=4e32dU3Pa6DLvphkU9lxdQ), and (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&start=72&select=hrhewclMcb1AUOLpgype1Q). My apologies for forgetting to photograph my chocolate layer cake. As usual, everything was delicious. Kudos and big thanks to Charlie who waited on our party and was very upbeat and helpful, definitely above and beyond. Also, shout out to Lucas, who managed the front of the house. Also, thanks to Jian for rewarding me for my loyalty to this group's restaurants. I still need to try that place near J Town, hopefully sooner than later.

    Food tastes fresh but not too memorable. Heard they update the menu seasonally, good place to eat casually and see what's new!

    As per my other review, I came back with an open mind to give trestle another chance! I did take a look at the menu before hand I was really excited for the food. The flavors were much better for my palette, and the service was wonderful. I did really enjoy the pork, salmon and pasta (my friend and I ordered various things to share) as their flavors really complimented each other! With that said, I still feel like it misses the mark for me. It is a place that I would go to if one of my friends or colleagues really wanted to, but not a place I would personally seek out.

    Saya H.

    Portion size is a little small but overall pretty good. We made a reservation because it was on the Michelin guide. Ambiance inside is cozy and a great date night place. I went during their anniversary where they had a tasting menu which I thought was pretty good for the price. Would I go again? Probably not, but worth the experience.

    This place was incredible! I took my girlfriend for her birthday and she could not be more impressed. The service was 10 out of 10 from the second. We walked in the door. They took our coats, were polite, and took care of our every need. The food was definitely the best part. All four courses were delicious. So fresh and perfectly balanced. The soup was perfectly cooked and the schnitzel breading was phenomenal. I can't wait to return

    It's been a long while since we revisited Trstle and it is still holding up the reputation of it cozy atmosphere, great service, delicious food and now I believe they have the most reasonable price for SF. There ia public parking lot next door, it is online paid parking and ensure you click on all the necessary button to complete the payment process as I started it but failed to push the last confirmation button and ended up with a ticket. Since I have a screen shot of my payment screen for technical error I got a reduce payment but it's sure put a damper to the nice evening. Overall, everyone in our group were very happy with their dinner choices. We appreciate the warm service and professionalism from the entire team. We will be back this time sooner.

    Is it noisey for early (6pm-ish) dining?

    Low noise early. Only raises to moderate as the dining room fills.

    Is the 20% service charge applied to the pre- or post-tax amount? TIA.

    Pre-Tax

    Do they do walk-ins? I tried to book for SFRW but found they do not take reservations for parties under 2. aka... party of 1. Thank you.

    I walked in but it was late, closer to 8:30 and I had to wait until almost 9 to be seated but they did accept me. They will take your name down and text you.

    Do they take walk-ins?

    Yes, we allow walk-ins, however please keep in mind we're a small restaurant and are often fully-committed with reservations. We always recommend trying to make a reservation first.

    Corkage fee? Wine list viewable online?

    Trestle's corkage fee is $25/bottle for any bottle not on our current wine list. Please contact us at info@trestlesf.com and we'd be happy to email you a copy of the wine list.

    Does this place take reservations? I looked on the site but could t see an option but wanted to double check

    Hello. Yes, we accept reservations at Trestle. Please visit trestlesf.com. You’ll find a reserve button in the top right or a reservations widget on the the center of the page. We hope to see you soon.

    How often does the menu change?

    We update the Trestle menu daily.

    What was at this location prior to Trestle?

    I believe it was an old Chinese restaurant (Great Hunan?) that had been there for ages.

    Where can I view their wine list?

    Hello Jami, You can view full Trestle wine list via the following link:… 

    Is there a bar seating at the new location?

    No there isn't. Beer and wine only.

    Do they have outdoor seating?

    No. The Vault, their sister restaurant does.

    Is there a corkage?

    A whopping $45.00!

    Do they have a separate menu for vegetarians?

    Separate no. Most restaurants don't have a unique vegetarian menu. But as you'll see from their standard menu from their website, they have at least one item per category that's vegetarian.

    Is this inside or outside? So tired of outside.

    Inside. The Vault is outside.

    How much time should I expect to spend here for a meal?

    I would allow at least an hour. It really depends on if you are having wine and how long it takes you to eat each course. The service is very fast and efficient

    Are there vegetarian options? What about for the tasting menu?

    When I went there, the menu did not have an true veggie entree options, but the restaurant was able to accommodate. However I would not plan to go here if you are vegan or strict on diet- the menu does constantly change though so you never know!

    Will you be able to accommodate dairy-free alternatives for all dishes/courses?

    Better check with the restaurant. They only offer pre-fixe menu so not sure if they can accommodate.

    Seems like I'm not able to get a reservation online. They don't accept reservations for parties of 1..anyone else has had this problem? Do I need to call them?

    It's a small restaurant. I would call.

    Is there a corkage fee?

    Yes. $20 a bottle as of July 2017. Call to confirm.

    Are there any gluten free options?

    Yes. Numerous dishes are available.

We walked into a space that feels designed for groups, with plenty of seating and a menu built around shareable desserts. The interior has a contemporary, stylish feel with comfortable seating arrangements that accommodate both small groups and larger parties, making it the type of place where you can come after dinner and spend time trying a few different things instead of just ordering one dessert. The energy is lively and social, with groups gathered around large dessert plates and the hum of conversation filling the room. The bingsu is the main attraction here, especially the mango sticky rice bingsu and volcano-style creations. We ordered the mango sticky rice version and found the shaved ice had that soft, fluffy texture that melts quickly, creating a light, refreshing base that absorbs the toppings well. The combination of sweet mango, coconut rice, and the fine ice created a nice balance of fruity sweetness and the familiar coconut flavor, and the toppings were generous enough that each bite felt complete. The volcano-style creations add a dramatic presentation, with toppings cascading over the ice and creating layers of texture and flavor that make the dessert feel more like an experience than just a bowl of ice. The crepe cakes are also worth trying, with lighter layers that make them easier to enjoy without feeling overly heavy, and the matcha and strawberry flavors stood out for their clean, well-balanced profiles. The portions are definitely on the larger side, so this is a better place to share. We found that splitting a few desserts across the table allowed us to try more of the menu without overcommitting, and the variety of options from bingsu to honey toast and lava-style desserts meant there was something for everyone. The honey toast is a fun choice if you want something warm and more indulgent, with a crisp exterior and a soft, buttery interior that pairs well with the ice cream and toppings. Some desserts can feel a little expensive depending on what you order, but the presentation and variety make it more of a dessert outing than a quick snack, and the quality of the ingredients is noticeable across the board. Service can be a little slower when it gets busy, especially later at night when the shop fills up, but the staff are generally friendly and the atmosphere makes it easy to wait. We noticed the team handling the steady flow with efficiency, and the pacing of the meal stayed comfortable even when the restaurant was full. The energy of the room remains social and relaxed, and the staff checked in at the right moments without rushing us through the meal. U:Dessert Story is a solid spot for creative Asian desserts, especially if you are going with friends and want to try a few different flavors together. The combination of shareable portions, thoughtful presentation, and a lively atmosphere makes it a destination for a more social dessert experience, offering a meal that feels both indulgent and communal. The variety across the menu gives you room to explore different styles on repeat visits, and the quality of the desserts keeps the experience feeling intentional and satisfying.

I'm always hunting for spots like this because I have a weakness for those over-the-top, Instagram-worthy desserts that look like diabetes in a dish. Like most places in this genre, A Buttercup is small, modern, and minimalist with limited seating. If you plan to go, aim for off-hours unless you enjoy waiting in line for sugar. The decor is cute and trendy, perfect for photos if that's part of your dessert ritual. As they say, "you eat with your eyes first," and when it comes to presentation, this place definitely gets an A+. The desserts look stunning and set high expectations. Unfortunately, that's where things started to crumble. It's like going to see your favorite artist live. You've watched the videos, memorized the songs, and paid for the experience. But instead of the electric performance you imagined, you get someone lip-syncing and barely connecting with the crowd. That was this place in dessert form. We ordered the Mango Bingsoo on our first visit, and when it arrived, we were surprised by how small the portion was. The guy next to us even looked over and said, "Whatever that is, I'm getting that next time." He shouldn't have. The Bingsoo looked great but was bland, and the "snow" was more chunky ice than soft shave. The Thai Tea Roti was also not what I expected. It came with Thai tea ice cream and sauce alongside a roti that was fried to a crunch. Interesting idea, just not the best execution. The sauce and ice cream needed a stronger Thai tea flavor to balance the crispy roti, and the flavors never quite came together. Overall, A Buttercup nails the aesthetics but misses the flavor. If you're here for the photos, you'll be happy. If you're here for the taste, you'll leave with a full camera roll and an unsatisfied sweet tooth.

We ended up making our way to the Valencia Street location, and I'm so glad we did. We learned that it used to be the original factory before they outgrew the space. Production has since moved a few blocks away, and now this location offers classes, a café, and plenty of chocolate treats. While we were there, a chocolate-making class was in session, and it was fun to watch part of it. The instructor even came over to chat with us and answer a few questions, which was such a nice personal touch. We ordered the brownie bite flight along with a hot chocolate, and both were fantastic. The brownie flight was rich, flavorful, and a fun way to sample different chocolates. The hot chocolate came with a tiny cookie that was absolutely delicious. At first, we were a little disappointed because we thought our hot chocolate was supposed to come with a marshmallow and didn't see one. When we mentioned it, the instructor smiled and showed us a toppings station we had completely missed. There were homemade marshmallows, flavored sugar cubes, and other little extras you could add yourself. He even encouraged us to take a few extra marshmallows, and they were some of the best I've ever had. One thing to know before you go is that Dandelion Chocolate focuses on high-quality chocolate that isn't overly sweet. If you're expecting the sugary milk chocolate flavor of a candy bar, this is a different experience. The chocolate has a richer, more complex flavor, and we really enjoyed trying something different. Between the friendly staff, delicious treats, and unique experience, I'd definitely recommend adding it to your itinerary--just make sure you head to the café location if you're looking for food and drinks!

    My friend and I walked 20 min from Haight to Powder since we were craving a sweet treat! She got…read morethe earl grey with misugaru, and I got the honeydew with mochi and misugaru (a type of Korean roasted grain powder). The mochi topping was a bit hard, and the misugaru started blowing away in the wind and getting all over our clothes! Definitely consider the weather in SF and how this might affect your plans, because I wouldn't have gone with this topping had we thought ahead. The honeydew was so light and perfect- we had such a hard time deciding which flavor to get, but this nailed it for me. I'm a big fan of the personal sizes they offer. There's very few places to get shaved ice in the Bay in the first place, and many are meant to be shared with friends. This way, you can mix and match with your party and try different options!
