Tadich Grill - San Francisco

High ranking quality, but a bit stuffy in the service department. Dismayed that a party of two isn’t allowed a reservation (last time I was able to reserve a party of two, no problem) despite traveling a long distance and wanting an excellent dining experience via an attempt to reserve and we were instead seated at the bar, rather than a table like I had preferred.

Extremely popular and bustling lunch spot in the downtown area. Delicious food options.

Excellent tasty food. The seafood stew was a highlight! We dipped the bread slices into the stew and it was heaven. The seafood pasta was also wonderfully cooked and savory. I would go back for the seafood pasta and the stew. The rice pudding was delicious. I would save some room for the rice pudding next time as it is unexpectedly flavorful with soft texture. The server and bar was quite busy for sat night and drink for my friend took a long time. This is a popular place and has lots of history. Atmosphere was quite loud and tight space. Good for friends and family gatherings but might not be ideal for first time meeting someone.

As much of a San Francisco classic as yhe Golden Gate Bridge and the cable cars.

The food was delicious. The service and ambiance were excellent.
