Bask

My husband and I went here for a Friday night dinner. We did reserve online on the same day. I think we were lucky since most folks were probably out of town. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Service was superb and they were very attentive. We ordered dessert wine and I didn’t like mine. I usually wouldn’t say it but the owner asked. He replaced my drink and it was delicious 👌🏻 ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Food was good too! We ordered the paella negra, crab croquette, and basque cheesecake. I expected a bit more with the cheesecake, but it tasted like a normal one. Not the Basque style but still good. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ambiance was great. We liked the music played and it felt intimate. There were families dining as well.

We happened to find this gem quite serendipitously. First up- they have an actual Spanish Mourvedre. If that's not awesome enough they have a section of menu dedicated to vegetarian dishes- we tried many and all were great but the highlight of them all was a set of terrific vegan lamb meatballs. I thought they would taste just like most simulated meat but was rather surprised at the pleasant texture and aftertaste. Great choices and presentation on desserts as well- one star deducted for a strawberry sauce that just didn't pair with the chocolate lava cake.

Amazing food, amazing service and a beautiful and caring owner! We were in a quick trip to SF to relax and are self professed foodies. I was pleasantly surprised to see a Spanish restaurant with reservation openings! After tasting this food, I'm amazed they had openings. We ordered different tapas to share, Paella, and dessert. The owner helped us pair wine and beer with our dishes. This is what I love. Amazing food with a personal experience. We will be back every time we visit the city

Great place for a group so you can try lots of the tapas! Good food, and efficient service as well.

Delicious food, grilled octopus is must try. Spanish style fried chicken surprised me. Paella Royale is too salty for me.

One of the best meals I’ve had in SF. Wasn’t able to find a spot at one of the “fancier” restaurants in the neighborhood and found ourselves here and couldn’t be more thankfully. The goat cheese and shrimp dishes along w the lamb were out of this world

What an absolutely pleasant surprise this was. After a certain joint whose paella went down, we had been hunting for a replacement for over a year now and boy did we strike gold!! The squid ink paella is an absolute flavor bomb in your mouth with every single spoon to the last scrape!! And it was not just the paella, the mushrooms, the gambas and even the bread , warm and crunchy that we had to ask for more to soak up everything! The crab croquettes and octopus was also decent. They had a small cocktail menu, but the one drink that my wife ordered she loved so much that she immediately ordered another one! This one goes straight into my favorites!

The price-quality ratio of their tapas is not as expected. We paid more than 50 USD per person for not much food. I understand that the tapas are always small, but the price is not commensurate. If you go to another restaurant like Picaro, for example, the tapas have the same "intermediate" quality and are bigger and cheaper (i.e 14 Bask vs. 10/11 Picaro).
