Anthony • March 6, 2015This is an great place. Def not your everyday. The portions are huge, the prices are low, and the food is great. The hard part is deciding what to have.

K H. • December 8, 2018This place rules! Super cute! Yummy food! French onion and all the things!

Brian L. • March 11, 2017Outstanding manhattans. When it's time to decide portion, always go King cut... leftovers make a great breakfast with eggs.

Jori B. • March 13, 2014Delicious meal by Matt and Jenny. Great meal and experience for your money!

SFGate • August 2, 2014Specialties: House-made pasta with duck liver and black truffles; lobster panzerotti in spicy lobster broth; cauliflower budino; truffle-stuffed chicken breast; bourbon caramel semifreddo.

nora w. • December 3, 2017My husband is from the Philly area and he loves this place. That's all you need to know

Eater • May 25, 2017More upscale environs (than average sports bar), tons of seating, a good, large food menu and shuffleboard make San Francisco Athletic Club a notch above the city's rest. Reserve a table in advance.

Holly R. • March 4, 2012Try the tuna taco! Everything about it is just amazing. The ahi is perfection. Mmm.

Audra S. • March 1, 2013It's hard to believe the veggie ham is veggie. Very convincing.

Simon T. • April 2, 2018Buttermilk fried quail, macaron ice cream sandwiches, guinea hen dumpling, hamachi sashimi nori cracker, pancakes, pomegranate granita. New American food/tapas served DIM SUM style on carts and trays.

Randall L. • February 5, 2020Chicken Benedict is tasty and lots to eat!

Bela K. • November 9, 2023This place will surely get a Michelin star at some point. The anchovy toast (marinated anchovies on a bed of heirloom tomato purée and focaccia) was out of this world.

Christine L. • May 28, 2018Spring for the grand menu; it’s definitely worth the extra $$$. Sake pairings were amazing!

Basam Y. • August 20, 2014Try the grilled salmon sandwich. Don't miss the wings.

Chelsea F. • September 9, 2013Fresh strawberry lemonade rocks! Nicest guy ever working there too. :)

Paul M. • April 24, 2015Great healthy take-away option

Ben M. • July 1, 2023Another highly styled brunch place - like Sons & Garden. The fried chicken and croffle (croissant waffle) was good. Liked the bulgogi sauce and the chicken was cooked perfectly.

Jeremy K. • January 11, 2012Try the Chicken Parm sandwich it's Tasty.

Nimalan M. • February 21, 2016The Purl is quite good. The Bramble is also very good. The gin list is ridiculously long. The decor is incredible - very steam punk and faithful to the London Underground.

Rachel R. • October 23, 2022Definitely need reservations. Food is surprisingly good, given the environment is optimized for Instagram.
