   We have been coming here for years. The food has recently gotten better. Our waiter said there is a new chef. Service was slow as the restaurant was packed on a Saturday night. We'll be back soon

   It was a birthday gathering for a friend. Our reservation was at 6:30 pm, we did not leave until 9:15 pm. Service was very slow. Food came to our table cold very little warmth. Our waitress was very slow returning to our table. Water glasses weren't filled until we had to track down another server. We sat eye-view to the kitchen area, where I could see a lot of activity/discussions where food was being prepared. The Men's restroom was dirty two urinals were broken and only one was working toilet, that the toilet area was very dirty and unsanitary. Downstair's Handi-caprestroom wasn't any better than the upper. After two and half hours the waitress and other wait staff came to sing Happy Birthday. Overall it was a very unpleasant evening.

   Building is pretty worn in but the location is beautiful, right at the bay with a view of the airport and san Francisco. There was a mariachi band that came in the evening.

   There were not a lot of breakfast items but there was ALOT of delicious food. I also thought that it was pretty pricy per person.

   My experience was great! The food was so good and my favorite part of it all was the amazing service. Our server Julie was very efficient and made sure that we were attended at all times.

   The place was full. Couples, groups, and an energetic party shared the space. Our waitress apologized for the very slow drinks. The food was noticeably better. The waitress explained a new chef made the difference. We'll be back soon.
