• American • Financial District / Embarcadero

Booked 28 times today

An exceptionally stylish supper club, civilized speakeasy, a sophisticated saloon. Each of these "personae" is housed in a soaring two-story interior distinguished by a gently curving mahogany bar, fluted columns with ornate capitals, stunning original art, plush banquettes, cozy booths, starched linens, glittering glasses, and polished flatware. Overall, the ambiance is pure 1930's and 1940's - tasteful art moderne reminiscent of the glory days of Cunard and French Line ships. Fashionable and glamorous are the hallmarks. Trendy is simply not a part of the BIX culture. The clientele at BIX ranges from San Francisco movers-and-shakers to "savvy travelers" - owner Doug Biederbeck's term for the many diners in the know from out of town who patronize his establishment. All of them step from the featureless alley into another world - a world of superb cookery and libations, of sparkling service, of stylish nostalgia, of polished live jazz. That world is BIX.

The food at Yoshi's is excellent, as is the service. They have plenty of well-trained staff to service the clientele. While expensive, the quality of the food is excellent and I felt we were not overpaying for what we ordered (unusual these days!). And we could talk without needing to yell to be heard, yay! I do wish wine by the glass wasn't so expensive.... We had a very nice experience and look forward to going back.
