Birdsong

Best Fine Dining Restaurants for Special Occasions in San Francisco | Eater SF

"If the warm wood-wrapped dining room and kitchen strung up with bundles of drying herbs don’t tip you off, know that Birdsong is all about the wood-fired grill and whatever seasonal ingredients chef and owner Christopher Bleidorn and his team can rustle up to cook on it. Stepping into Birdsong feels almost like stepping into a dining oasis tucked away in a Pacific Northwest forest, and the $325 tasting menu somewhat re-enforces that fact: root broth served with braised wakame, black cod made smokey over the grill’s embers, and buttery cornbread topped with a thick layer of caviar. Service manages to feel both warm and professional without too much pretense. Make reservations for dinner on OpenTable." - Flora Tsapovsky
