Eileen ManchaDecember 4, 2013This place is def. a tourist trap. I don't think anyone in my party of 9 liked their food. We only came here because we had a gift card. Almost a $200 bill not including tip. Totally not worth it.
Vishwastam ShuklaDecember 26, 2012Tried all veg stuff. Lasagne and pizza didn't really cut it for me. Had to change tables bcoz of lack of heating in certain areas. Overall a very average experience.
Stephen GaussMarch 22, 2011Best meal the whole trip. Make sure u try the garlic rose relish with the roasted relish!
Giovanna JonesMarch 26, 2016RUN!!! This place is disgusting, over priced, and has slow service! TOURIST TRAP! But if you do decide to take the plunge, the meatloaf is the only thing worth eating.
JaysonJanuary 11, 2010The name says it all. If you love garlic, this is your place. The Stinking Rose is my favorite San Francisco restaurant.
MissConnorAugust 22, 2015Not many options for "non-so garlic lovers" really expensive, and when u go out u STINK for the rest of the day
GadlingSeptember 29, 2010Try to count the number of garlic bulbs in the garlic string that winds around the restaurant. (Then, give up and just eat!)
Renganathan RamamoorthyAugust 7, 2014Average vegetarian food. The crostini and the cheese pot are tasty.
PaulAugust 28, 2012The only place where your breath might be kickin' for a date, but it might be okay.
vasil AzarovMay 19, 2010Roasted rabbit with roasted garlic and garlic mashed potatoes - very tasty dish
Alisha BAugust 23, 2012Service here sucks. I feel like I'm at a circus. Don't bother wasting your money on the drinks, they suck, save it to buy another entree cause they're that small. Just don't even come.
Edward KMay 26, 2013Waiters and servers are way undertrained and unprofessional. Don't expect to be treated kindly while waiting for a table.

It’s chic to reek at this world famous dining mecca where they flavor the garlic with food. Colorful theme rooms & casual fun.
