Best Restaurants for Afternoon Tea in Potrero Hill / Dogpatch

The Rotunda is delightful. It's old-charm in a modern setting, nostalgic for its past but decidedly modern and hip. The light that comes through the windows is cheerful and the waitstaff nothing but classy. The booth-like seating is comfy and decor is pleasant. I had the rockfish sandwich for lunch and devoured every saucy bite of it. Reserve a table in advance -- dropping in will be a long wait. It's a great place to do lunch on union square!

We enjoyed an absolutely beautiful Christmas dinner at Laurel Court. Highlights included the live Christmas jazz trio that so beautifully captured the mood of the families celebrating together, awesome dessert selection (wow!), and huge, artful charcuterie and vegetable displays. We loved the assortment of dim sum favorites, and the carving stations, along with yummy salads, breads, soups (lobster bisque!), and other side dishes. We appreciated the family-friendly menu as well, with the table of children's favorites, which were a big hit with our 5 year old and 1 year old. The staff were so friendly and helpful, and everything was first class. After our dinner, we visited the Fairmont Gingerbread House, and took in the gorgeous Christmas decor of the hotel. Altogether it was an excellent Christmas day, and we thank all the staff at the Fairmont who worked on the holiday to give us this magical experience. Thank you!

Our Christmas Day Brunch experience was fantastic. I have some food allergies so I had emailed The Post Room Team in advance and received a prompt, reassuring reply from the chef, Jose, who had clearly given my questions thoughtful and thorough consideration. On the day, I received personal service from Jose who was committed to avoiding issues with cross-contamination. All the food we ate was delicious and the dining room team could not have been more welcoming or accommodating. We were so well looked after, it was a faultless festive experience. We only went out for our Christmas meal this year because I had recent hand surgery and can’t cook much. However, our experience at The Post Room was so delightful, I am considering doing it again next year. Thank you to Jose and the whole team.

Really enjoyed our brunch here… great spot. Amazing food… loved the vibe.

Because when you walk into the location, its main entrance is on Market Street. While you walk through the lobby back to where the restaurant is, you are amazed by the ceiling. Yesterday was a bright sunny 92° day and the light that came through the ceiling and through the stained glass with marvelous magnificent, and yet the room was in great temperature. The service was spectacular. The food was excellent. The ambience was superb. The waiter and the staff were excellent. The hostess put us in the middle of the room, which ironically enough there was a wedding party seating behind us and at no time did you feel like it was a noisy environment the rosé from Paso Robles was spectacular. I had an excellent hamburger and my guest. My business client had a marvelous salad whether you’re going here for lunch for a business meeting or to celebrate an event you will enjoy the atmosphere in the opportunity and by the way on new Montgomery there is a valet service as well.
