A group of us, 8 in all, visited the Top of the Mark this past Saturday, Nov 16, 2024, and had an absolutely terrific time dancing and listening to Carla Helmbrecht (what talent!). The dance floor was filled with peeps (we loved dancing to "Fly Me To The Moon" and "The Way You Look Tonight"! The view on the 19th floor was breathtaking. The sky was perfectly clear and we could see bridge to bridge, Salesforce Tower, the Pyramid, Sutro Tower, Alcatraz - amazing! The table service was attentive without being intrusive, as always. The appetizers and cocktails were deeeelish. We've been going to the Top of the Mark for over 15 years and it hasn't lost one step in charm and fun. A great spot for date night, a party, as special gathering or an evening, solo!

The Top of the Mark is always a fun adventure. We had some great food and drinks. You can't beat the views of course! Our servers were very attentive and professional. We do wish that they would bring back dancing and entertainment to the venue.

Great view, lovely ambience. Friendly service. Very generous with a delicious bit of poundcake on my birthday. Drinks were good if a bit pricey, but you’re paying for the spectacular view. Overall, very worth it.

We had great service. We had the Top of the Mark Manhattans. We had short rib sliders and shrimp tacos. Plus a birthday desert that was great. The view was outstanding!

Place could use a freshen up but it’s great location and wonderful views. The drinks and service were excellent. We had hummus and olives. Fresh and tasty. I always put Top of the Mark on my agenda when I come to SF.
