Gabriel Hayes: The Brooklyn Burrata & Local Grapes salad is great. Made with arugula, pickled red onions, almonds and served with a baguette.
Tasting Table: The restaurant's soft lighting, reflect off a gorgeous arched tiled ceiling, as you twirl strands of linguine studded with tomato sauce and clams ($21). Try their awesome appetizers too. Read more.

Emilie Futterman: Known for oysters, but you can't go wrong with anything you order here. Unbelievable fries, fab lobster spaghetti, and yummy salmon riette. Music got me dancing in the bathroom.
Jared Milano: The bathroom is one of the best I've seen.. if you come on a date and want to ditch, just go to the "WC" and climb up the ladder and out the window.
Ghostly International: Stumptown Coffee for $1, can't be beat. If you come for brunch, try the Sausage, Egg, and Cheese biscuit. Full size sausage patty, moist biscuit.

Josenny Torres: Def recommend this place. The lunch special comes with a your main course, an appetizer, salad and your choice of drink all for 9 bucks. I def chose Thai Iced tea. Happy and satisfied customer
Andrew Cerda: The Crab Rangoon has innards consisting of a mildly spicy, creamy yellow curry cabbage. It's delicious, especially when paired with the sweet and (red pepper) spicy sauce.
Rajat: It's not San Francisco thai food--but it comes close. Pad Thai is great, avoid the duck salad, waaaay too much sodium
