I am generally not a person that spends alot of food so when i splurge I expect exceptional value. We chose this restaurant on a recommendation from a friend and the fact that it had a label of "relais & chateaux". We had eaten at another such place before and were blown awway so we figured we couldn't do much... more

We were here over the July 4th weekend and celebrated my husbands birthday here. Wonderful, wonderful place to eat. We had the 3 course meat which was $66 per person but worth every penny as you can choose from any item on the menu. Food is perfectly prepared, staff is perfect and decor romantic. This is a repeat restaurant and... more

We chose the 5 course tasting menu with the wine pairings. Highly recommend this, however beware that this selection will range from $400-$450 for 2 people including tip. You can choose anything on the menu for the 5 courses, which is very nice if there is something on the pre-selected tasting menu that won't work for you. I would recommend... more

The service was amazing. I would highly recommend the tasting menu. We were just there and had the Spring Tasting Menu. The first and second courses were amazing(oysters and then salmon). The filet of beef was good but not the best steak I had ever tasted. The cheese course was also very nice. Though there were many cheeses that I... more

We booked after reading the reviews on this site and were a little disappointed. The food, although good, was not great. We found the restaurant to be VERY cold indeed and that meant that we couldn’t really relax to enjoy the occasion. On reflection I should have asked them to turn the air con above freezing as most of the... more

My husband and I made a point of coming here when we were on our last trip to San Fran. I had heard great things about the food and we were dying to try it. It exceeded our expectations, and our expectations were quite high. We both felt it was one of the best meals we have ever had, and... more

My husband and I had the great pleasure to have dinner at Gary Danko a few days ago. Our first impression was excellent: a very well decorated room, stylish but not posh, with a helpful staff. After we took our first bite (we chose a 4 course menu), we realized that the night would be really unforgetable (I strongly recommend... more

For a most special occasion/celebration - or, if I knew I had one last meal - I would make it to Gary Danko. The food, atmosphere, service combined to exceed our expectations in a city we mark for memorable meals. This was the best! You choose 3, 4, or 5 courses at set prices. Wait staff was knowledgeable and helpful.... more

I try to get a table at Gary Danko's every time I'm in San Francisco. I find them to be much more helpful and accomodating than most restaurants requiring booking at least a month in advance. A few times when I've been waitlisted, they have called me back and gone out of the way to fit me in. The food... more
