A wonderful dinner, as always. It is very impressive that it has maintained its quality for so long, especially after Michael Chiarello's tragic death.

I brought my family into SF for a few days of shopping and fun to break up the holidays. We live in Marin and are picky about driving into the city for dinner. Being a native born San Franciscan and resident in SF / Marin my whole life, La Mar proved a great pick. My wife, my two grown daughters and I will definitely return. La Mar - great spot and thanks for a wonderful dinner!

Dining and service was wonderful. However, I called ahead and was given instructions as to how and where to enter. My only criticism is the handicap accessible. I have ALS and I’m in a wheelchair. At the street level the lift was not working and had to go up through the garage. Although the lift in the restaurant is helpful, it would have been more accessible to be seated at the same level as the restroom. Just a thought.
