We found this restaurant close to the Bay Landing Hotel. It was convient and the service was very good. Having said that, the rest is down hill. The restaurant looks 'shop worn' and the food is below par. I had the Santa Barbara cheeseburger. The meat was bland and the bun was like a store bakery bun. My wife had... more

Too busy, too noisy, but I still can't help kind of liking it, grudgingly. Perhaps it's the desserts, which will defeat even the most determined. more

Food okay, service slow but v friendly. I had veggie burger which was okay, chips were horrid though. Husband had fish special, again just okay. Had to wait 20 mins for table and then a while for order to be taken. Would not go again but very convenient for our hotel (Bay Landing). more

Very popular restaurant so the wait may be long. You can avoid the long wait if you find a table in the bar area. Food is good with a wide selection. The service was also good. more

My wife and I ate here while staying at the Bay Landing Hotel. The Elephant Bar is two buildings from the hotel. The place was busy but we got a table by the bar right away rather than sitting in the dining section. They have decent selection of beer on tap. They have the usual crap beer like Coors and... more

Chose because of closeness too SFO, for a late lunch. Ambiance was a cool kitschy.. an African type theme. We were a tough seating arrangement, 2 power wheelchairs, requiring some electrical juice. But the management was very accommodating to us. The food was good, but only average. I would eat there again. The best of what we got was the... more

We were planning a lunch meeting there which is the hotel zone south of SFO. I called them three months earlier to make reservation. Initially, the lady said that they usually don't make reservations for lunch since they are usually busy, but she did make the reservation for us after checking with the manager. The evening before the meeting, I... more

My wife and I ate at the Elephant Bar while staying at a close by park and fly at SFO. We had read the reports of this restaurant and were expecting a good meal with some drinks before hand. The happy hour was basically a come on with very low end wine and liquors and the beers were limited to... more
