The Harlequin

Really cute vibes and warm staff. Just wasn’t blown away by the drinks or food for the price. Got the ube colada, truffle fries, and peta bread/hummus. Wouldn’t recommend or go back, sadly

Great food and cocktails. Mostly a place for cocktails with a large bar area and separate smaller rooms for dining and drinking. Staff was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. Drinks were very good and creative. I enjoyed the Disco Nap and the Fool For Love. My husband had the Old Fashioned. His was good, but much like an Old Fashioned anywhere else. My drinks were more unique which I really enjoyed. For food we order the Harlequin pie, a pizza with tomato sauce, mozzarella, pepperoni, Italian sausage, cherry tomatoes and goat cheese. Perfect size to share. Flavorful and fresh. Good crust too. And we shared a Kale salad which had a delicious dressing and was also full of flavor. The only down side (aside from the wobbly high top we were seated at) was the noise level. It got very loud very quickly without many patrons at the restaurant making it hard to hear the server or to carry on a conversation.

Food was absolutely a plus five stars. On top of that I feel like if you're a walking by this place in the street you might not think to go in but you should go in. The atmosphere was great. The music was great. The people were great. The serving was great. The food was fast. Happy hour was great. The drinks. Oh my god, the drinks they were so good I mean literally. I feel like this is a place where everybody should check out. Definitely five stars in my mind and you will not regret the drinks and the oysters and the food. It was all five stars, five stars!

New bar on 4th and Market that has received a lot of hype. Decor pretty solid. Neighborhood is meh, right close to Powell Bart which has a lot of riff raff. Had one drink, no food. Old fashioned ($15) was well made. Lighting w good ambiance. The bar itself seemed a bit dirty - bar countertop and front windows look like they needed a good wipe down. Nothing special here in my opinion. Wouldn’t go out of my way to come here but if nearby stop in.

I recently dined at this charming restaurant and had a delightful experience. The decor is tasteful, and the music creates a lovely ambiance. I ordered the steak and fries paired with a glass of red wine, and the meal was delicious. Cindy and May provided excellent service, for which I am very grateful. The only reason I gave it four stars instead of five is that it was towards the end of the lunch rush, and the restaurant was nearly empty with just two other people. Consequently, I had to wait a while for my food. Overall, everything else was wonderful.

I love going to this spot mostly for the ambiance and convenience of location, but their drinks and food are good too. It offers the best of a date night vibe with more affordability than The View, Dirty Habit, or other spots nearby it. I've never had to wait for a table and the service is a great mix of attentive and friendly without being pushy or rushing you. I feel that no matter where you sit you'll have a beautiful view to look at. The only downside is if you sit on the couches you can really sink in and/or be far away for conversation (especially when it gets busier). Bathrooms are somewhat limited but clean and usually not a crazy wait. Their drinks are usually pretty unique, which means taking a risk you might not like what you get, but I've been pleasantly surprised on multiple occasions. Their food is like an upscale pub offering with some fancier options too. It creates a great middle ground of providing casual staples with ritzier ones if you're going to the nearby opera or just want something a bit nicer. Highly recommend this above almost anything within a 2 block radius.

This is a great spot to meet with friends after work as the ambiance has a classy yet approachable environment with a great happy hour selection. I recommend their signature The Harlequin burger as the flavors are consistent and pare well with the truffle fries and cocktails.

The staff wasn't the friendliest. Seemingly annoyed with tourists or maybe they were annoyed that we had a baby..... Unsure, but it was weird to feel that way in that area. The menu is unique and the food tastes pretty good. The drinks were better than average. Slightly overpriced, but overall, an adorable place.

Food - limited menu but what we had (pizza, chicken sliders, Caesar salad) was fine, good, even. Drinks - well made. Nice job. Service - very attentive but they didn't course our food at all which was annoying. Ding. Ambience - I kind of liked it in there. Sort of post modern arty farty. But, a bit of a cold vibe - it would greatly benefit from some booths. Totally fine place to hit pre movie or if you're staying in one of the hotels down there.

The wait time on a Sunday was great (no wake), the staff was polite and attentive. The pepperoni pizza was decent for a non-pizza place.. the "crispy" Brussels sprouts had zero crisp to them, and the creme brûlée was categorically the worst I've ever had anywhere. The top was soggy, and entire dish was kind of room temp and just blah. They were out of wedge salads.. Overall, the menu was just too hit or miss and nothing about it makes it worth trying again.

This is a really cute place to go for a drink or food before watching a movie at the Metreon. We stopped in during their all-week happy hour (4-6 pm) and I'm glad we did! The decor is darkly sleek, and the service is casual and unpretentious. From their happy hour menu, we got a wonderful Western Sour, a Fernet boilermaker (Fernet shot and a blonde ale), and the Margherita Pizza. The cocktail was delicious and well-prepared. The pizza had a light and crisp crust and was surprisingly tasty and big. A winner. Fernet was Fernet. :) There's a bunch of enticing sharable items, but we added the Roasted Chicken to share and called it dinner. The chicken seems to be spatchcocked and maybe brick cooked, so it was juicy with a wonderful crusty sear; it was served atop carrots and pearl onions with some nice grill caramelization and a sweet (maybe gochujang based?) sauce. I would definitely come here again to try other cocktails and dishes.

Food- Came here for happy hour. They have some great cocktail options but can also make you your usual should it not be on the menu. The drinks weren't typical but didn't feel pretentious. Service- I swear they were almost invisible. Maybe they knew we were having a vent session and wanted to stay out of our hair. Ambiance- Classic. Beautiful classic decor. I felt like I should have been dressed more chic to match the decor. But they had no problem with me in my business casual.

I had such a great time here at The Harlequin! If you're looking for a dim lighted vibe for dinner and or drinks, I think this is a great spot for it! I really enjoyed the food I ordered and actually wish I had more stomach to try more! I had the bone marrow and the mushroom risotto. They were both delicious and I didn't feel overly full either. The portions were great and I was very happy with the quality. Our server recommend the Assumed Identity cocktail for me since I like my drinks sweet, and it came out in this cute cat cup and was indeed sweet and fruity. I really have no complaints about this place and I'm glad I went. I saw all the reviews before making the reservation and I have to agree with them! When I come back to San Francisco, this will be one of my spots to come back to!

We grabbed some cocktails here after dinner on a Sunday evening. The Jazz Hands, Dr. Quinzel, and Fool for Love were tasty and made well, but the waits were long for both ordering and having the drinks made. The bartenders/servers were really nice though, just a bit busy and inattentive at times. The ambience is lovely, with beautiful decor, furnishings, and dim lighting to set the mood. And a variety of tables and seating, too.

This is a fancy lounge that serves incredible food and drinks. My friends and I came here to quench our thirst after coming from watching a movie at the nearby movie theater. We walked in and they gave us this cool lounge table that could fit the 5 of us. Staff gave us enough space but was very attentive. We started off with some drinks. I got the Ube Colada. It's really tasty if you're a big fan of ube. And it looks really well represent; a lavender color with some decorations on top. Also got a Smash Burger that came with friday. Nothing special but still tasty, nothing out of the ordinary. Come here if you're looking for a fancy place to drink and catch up with friends! This place is not a divey place and plenty of artisinal alcoholic beverages.

I was looking for someplace to go with a varied menu that could be shared. They definitely have a lot of options that will please all. I was a little concerned because some reviews mentioned the service as not being good. Well I can tell you that everyone from the young lady who checked us in to all the servers were very friendly and welcoming. There is a varied drink & food menu. The space is sort of divided into sections which is nice. The decor was pretty as well. We enjoyed everything we had and the only little thing was the crispy Brussel sprouts weren't crispy, they were good, and I liked them though. All in all a good place to go.

The atmosphere feels big and empty and it doesn't have any character. There are too many great places to go in the city to waste a night at harlequin.

Ambience was cool right in the heart of downtown. Drinks were good. Food was good, sliders, pork belly baos and crispy tofu. Went with the mezcal drink and another. Pricey for what it is but for the location pretty standard. Don't leave things behind..but if you do they seem pretty good at keeping things safe

My group of four were out on the town and decided to keep the party going. We wanted to try a cool cocktail bar and decided on The Harlequin. The Harlequin is a 1920's Revival style restaurant and bar. Loved the speakeasy vibe. The Harlequin was pretty busy when we arrived. However, we were seated right away near the bar. We ordered the following to share: Maitake Mushrooms $16 Hummus flatbread $16 We each also ordered a cocktail. I opted for the Coyote & Crow, $17. It has mezcal, cynar, cardamaro, blackberry, lime, and guajillo salt. It was a deliciously balanced drink. Everyone seemed to enjoy their cocktails. The Maitake mushrooms comes with panko crusted mushrooms tossed in Maggie butter and microgreens. Crunchy and tasty. The hummus flatbread comes with cucumber, red onion, tomatoes, olives, and feta. The hummus portion was decent and great for sharing. Would recommend The Harlequin!

Went for the happy hour on a Friday at around 5:15 and it was not super packed! A nice vibe in the bar, the bartenders were attentive and friendly. We got the old fashioned ($11) and a sparkling wine ($8) and fries ($5) at the bar though we also saw someone eating a burger which seemed really enticing too (and on the happy hour menu)! We'll be back to try that out next time. A bit quiet overall and more expensive than some other happy hours but a nice cozy spot.

First time dining at The Harlequin for me and my girlfriend's anniversary. Walking in, the ambience and environment was relaxed and casual. We were seated right away around 6:30 on a Friday night. We decided to start with their pepperoni pizza as a starter. The pizza came out blazing hot, and burnt the top of our gums lol. To add on, it was pretty oily and greasy and it didn't taste like quality pizza. I wouldn't order it again. After that, I read some yelp reviews about the ube pina colada and ordered it to see the hype. Yes, it was good! I would get it again, it was delicious and had a good amount of rum in it that you can definitely taste. For our main entree, I ordered their Harlequin smash burger and my girlfriend ordered their lamb ragu. To keep it short, I would order the smash burger again and my girlfriend wouldn't order the lamb ragu again. The smash burger was decent, but the fries were very salty and the patties themselves weren't seasoned and as flavorful for how good they looked. For the ragu, the lamb wasn't flavorful and the noodles were just okay. Good experience overall, I recommend the ube pina colada and smash burger.

Went to the Harlequin with my work team. Ambiance: modern, hip, trendy, relaxed. Food: bone marrow app was good but so small. Burrata was great for sharing. El Rio is a sweet and refreshing mocktail. Mahi mahi was a standard fish and orzo meal, healthy and filling. I was satisfied with it. Both cheesecake and creme brulee were so disappointing. I don't know why you would even serve such a watery creme brulee. Service: fast and attentive. Overall, go for the ambiance, especially if you want a cool American vibe.

Needed to grab some lunch before running errands. Looked on Yelp and found this cute place. Food looked decently priced and presentation was enticing. I got the kale salad, a glass of wine and ended up adding a side of flank steak later (not pictured). The salad was amazing but I wish the golden beets weren't big chunks. I had never tried golden beets before. Although they paired great with the salad, the chunks and amount made it hard to enjoy. When I added the flank steak I was pleasantly surprised with how well it paired with it! The wine was joel gotts sauv blanc. It's a basic but classic wine. Hit the spot! Overall my salad steak and wine were around $30. Because it was a Friday at noon there was very few people which was nice. I enjoyed my lunch in peace at the bar with some nice music in the background. My bartender May was great! Very welcoming and attentive and was able to balance a good conversation while letting me enjoy my food on my own. If I'm ever in union square area and want a quick bite I will definitely be coming back!

My experience at The Harlequin on Valentine's Day was a mix of highs and lows. The Black Pink Margarita was a visually appealing and well-balanced cocktail. The Crispy Brussels with goat cheese, pomegranate, and hot honey stood out with its harmonious blend of sweet, tart, and creamy textures. However, the steak frites, while perfectly cooked, didn't offer anything particularly special. The Korean tacos, lacking a standout sauce, left room for improvement. The menu seemed a bit disjointed, spanning American, Asian, and Mediterranean cuisines. Adding to the mixed feelings, our table placement felt less than ideal. Tucked away by a wall near the kitchen, it seemed like the "stepchild" of the restaurant. Other patrons enjoyed more aesthetically pleasing settings under lovely lighting and chandeliers. On a positive note, the complimentary cheesecake for Valentine's Day was a thoughtful touch. While The Harlequin shines in its beautiful decor and ambiance, I might consider it more for drinks than a return for the food.

Yummy yum yum. I had not even hear of this spot before. The hubby found it for a double date night with some friends who were in town. We had a great time and ate good food. The deviled eggs perfect. Brussels Sprouts good yet a little too sweet. I had the Thai curry it was tasty although I could use more spicy. But those critiques are just preferences. So I still give it a great rating. Also service was superb very nice and attentive to us. We didn't feel rushed as we took our time to figure out what to eat. There were some tasty looking options so I'd like to return to try more. Maybe I can convince the cook to give me a little more heat. Heheh.

Vibey cocktail bar with amazing specialty drinks, perfect and not crowded on a friday night. Interior was decorated with Christmas lights and decor and the staff was wearing holiday sweaters. They were friendly and fast to refill waters, checking in on us often. I really liked the Assumed Identity , it's a rice whiskey with citrus notes that comes in a super cute cat mug. Ube colada was good and strong too, exactly like how you would expect an ube latte to taste. Will be coming back next date night to try more of the drinks and food on the menu!

Stopped in here for a late-night dinner since we were staying across the street at Marriott, in town for work. It was very crowded, likely because of the big summit we were all there for. The bar area was full, so we sat in the dining area. Ambiance was nice. As for food, it was average. The burrata with prosciutto wrapped peaches was not good since the burrata was dry and there was too much prosciutto wrapped around the peach slices making it very salty. We had the steak frites and the chimichurri was also very salty. I did enjoy my ube colada, which was refreshing. The staff, although helpful, were dressed as if they were called into work last-minute to work because they were so busy. My husband who did not care for the food, was still hungry and so thought he'd get a pizza to-go, and it was good.

The food we got gets a 5 star . We got the lamb pasta and the thai shrimp pasta. They served the food quick and our drinks too. The drink I got was ube pina colada on the left and on the right was naughty or nice. I definitely recommend the ube pina colada if you like sweet drinks. As for the place itself they were decorated pretty with christmas spirit. The service was great too! we had trouble finding parking so we were a little late to our reservation but they accommodate us.

We came here to hang out with friends before a movie. Nice interior and ambiance, walkable from AMC Metreon and Moscone Center. We loved the ube cocktail, must have ordered 4 or 5 between the four of us. Service was good even though it was very crowded. The food could have been better; we ordered the Brussels sprouts which were a little dry and the fried chicken sliders which were tasty but also bland (no sauce).

Cute spot. Brussels sprouts were tasty. Bartender was very attentive and friendly. A bit pricey, but it's downtown SF for gouging is to be expected. The Brussels sprouts app was $16. Yikes. Deviled eggs were $11. Yikes again. It was ok, but not great.

The drinks truly are inventive & tasty; like, I'm sorry but an UBE colada? Met someone for a date & grabbed a table in the corner by the windows, which I'd def recommend if you're hoping to have a conversation without raising your voice, as the ceilings are tall & noise travels if there are many other patrons present. There was a group event in a side room - worth checking out for an office event or large birthday gathering; I'm curious what the buy out fee is given the central location to hotels & conferences. I first ordered the ube colada as I have a ton of Filipino friends & had to try it in their honor, + I'm a sucker for a normal pina colada :p This drink isn't too sweet, but one was enough for me as rum isn't my first liquor of choice. I'd 10/10 order it again to start though! My second drink was the coyote & crow, a slight twist on a mezcal margarita. 10/10, as well, definitely something I would be happy to return & enjoy again. My date first ordered this, and I tried it, so I knew I'd like it (and usually mezcal doesn't disappoint me). Couldn't tell ya what my date had for his second drink, oops. There is food, but we didn't get any. We did see a father & son duo stop in for a late dinner; kid was fairly young so I imagine there's something basic on the menu to satisfy a picky eater (all the kids I know are picky to a certain extent). This place is always crawling with humans & private events during conferences like Dreamforce, so avoid at those time (unless you're looking for your next tech bro/ONS).

Absolutely love this place! The decor and interior is very elegant and romantic. The vibe is very lively and inviting. My friend and I tried the Coyote & Crow, Fool for Love and Ube Colada. We enjoyed all of our drinks, and they are reasonably priced. They had great music playing, and their restrooms were in good working order. The bartenders were helpful and attentive, so was the bar back. Overall, a great time and would definitely come back!

The kale salad was terrific, but could have used a higher ratio of cheese and beets to greens. They were all on the top so after some digging you were left in kale land (which is well dressed, just not as exciting). Ideally, the beets would be roasted longer as well. The setting is swanky while still feeling accessible and the waitstaff is very friendly. I look forward to returning.

This place has an early 1900's speakeasy kind of vibe. However, only the decor is old school. The music is modern, and the food is "New American". I would say 4.5 stars total. The food is 4 stars, and Manny the bartender is a 5 star bartender, so I will give it a 4.5 average. I only did drinks and appetizers, so I definitely want to return and try some of the other interesting dishes on the menu.

Real rating is 3.5, but rounding up because I know this place is new so there's a chance that they are still getting better. Party: 4 Day/Time: Wednesday at 5PM Reservation: yes Traffic: not very full, still plenty of tables available Pork Belly Baos - Tasty! You will get 3 servings to share. The flavor is good, nothing to write home about but it's a nice appetizer to get the tummy juices flowing. Bone Marrow - YUM highly recommend, personally I love bone marrow and this really hit the spot! Crispy Brussel Sprouts - I don't recommend this item because I feel like the brussels weren't very crispy, and were more on the mushy side. The vinagrette was also a bit strong. Good filler for keeping the conversation going, but personally I wasn't a fan. Burrata - Loved the peaches and drizzle. The portion was perfect for sharing. My favorite app of the night! Can't go wrong with some delicious burrata and peaches. Lamb Ragu - The sauce has flavor, but not very deep/rich. Could have been reduced more. Crispy Caesar Sandwich - Good! (No further comments from my friend who ordered it.) Mahi Mahi - loved the creamy sauce! The fish is a bit dry in the middle, but the sauce helps. The service on the day we went was great, we got plenty of check-ins. However the entrees came pretty slow. The drinks/appetizers came out in about 10minutes, but we waited close to 30 for the entrees to come out (ordered entrees right after we finished eating the appetizers).

Great drinks and better oysters! Bartender was extremely friend and knowledgeable. Service was fast and the oysters were fresh. Will definitely be coming back.

Had a great time here celebrating a birthday! Love the chandelier, and little bird lamps in the other room, the decor were all simple and elegant. The music variety is great ranging from songs remixed with a 1920's twist to lounging vibes. The service was good, quick and attentive. For food, we had the steak frites, smash burger, crispy tofu, burrata, mushroom risotto, and sausage pizza, all were delicious. The drinks were super! dr. quizel is like a pornstar martini (homage to Harley Quinn?) Assumed identity was cute and came in a cat mug definitely tasted like a green apple jolly rancher. The ube colada, coyote & Crow, Old fashioned (love the big clear ice cube) were great. Awesome spot with the variety of food and beverages for a casual fine dining experience. Will be coming back again!

came to the harlequin during happy hour (4pm-6pm) and left around 7:30pm. food is great - we ordered multiple plates of fries, spanish octopus, pork belly baos, brussel sprouts, and maitake mushrooms as our sharable bite options. everything was delicious. i ordered the thai shrimp pasta as my entrée and it was one of the best thai pastas i've had in a while! ordered ube colada as my drink and it was really strong. service was a little slow. we had a party of 9 (booked our reservation ahead of time) and there were many empty tables when we first arrived. our server delivered our first round of drinks and didn't come back to check on us or to let us order food for at least 30 minutes. someone from our party had to physically find her to place our food order. the decor and ambiance of this place is quite nice. dim lights, unique light decor pieces, and floral wallpaper. there are sitting tables and standing tables available. overall, this was a good experience.

Needed a place to decompress after catching a film at the Metreon. Since we were looking sharp, the food court wasn't going to cut it. According to Yelp, Harlequin was .1 miles away. Sold. So glad we went. There's a comfy sofa in the lounge. We took a window seat so we could watch all of humanity pass by. You find the menu & order via QR code, but since we were a tad high maintenance our waiter helped. Delicious 1/2 dozen oysters with two kinds of sauce & lemon wedges. Nice presentation too. Drinks were a bourbon & a glass of cider. High fives all around. We definitely chose the right place. Almost serene atmosphere, easy to relax and enjoy conversation. Yes, you can hear each other speak, and nobody was staring at their phones. Imagine such a place. Look no longer, you have arrived. Inside the lights are dim, impressive interior, so yeah, great date spot.

We have been here just a couple of times but like this place both for food and drinks. The staff are always friendly, the place looks nice and it's easy enough to get a table. We find the usual tables and chairs a little too low so we prefer sitting at the bar and sharing some appetizers.

I came here during the weekday for dinner and drinks. There are plenty of seating and the servers were nice. I ordered truffle fries, pepperoni pizza, pork belly baos, and steak frites to share. My favorite was the truffle fries. For drinks, I got the coyote & crow and dr.quinzel cocktail. I definitely like the dr.quinzel drink since its more on the lighter/sweeter side. This is a nice spot for delicious food and drinks. I would definitely come back if I am in the area.

Maybe it's the name, but this restaurant gave me Gotham City vibes. It's dark, cozy, and elegant. The staff was great, food was served very quickly. I got the Lamb Ragu which was great. You MUST order the Ube Colada! One of the most unique and delicious cocktails I've ever had - had to order two!

Great new spot for drinks and grub! As soon as we walked in the host podium was there and we were taken to our seats. Not sure how a Friday night might be, we made reservations. There is lots of seating at the bar, and high tables, as well as lots of tables and seating area for more chill time (like date night vibes hehe) or for slightly larger groups. The ambiance is classy/cool, but unpretentious. Place is clean and looks updated and bathrooms were nice and tidy. We came here for a date night bite and drinks before catching a movie. Ube Colada-- 5/5 Uughhh so delicious! I'm always drawn to a colada, even though many I've had are sickeningly sweet...still, I'm like a moth to this flame bc I love fun, fruity, coconut drinks. Thankfully, THIS WAS SO FREAKING GOOD! The drink was well-balanced, not too sweet, and very refreshing. I was curious if the ube would come through bc it's usually a delicate taste...and it did!! It was light but definitely there. It was a perfect concoction and my fave colada drink yet. Added bonus, when the bartender brought the drink she said don't forget to eat the pineapple. They prepare and dry the pineapple and though it be small, it was a delightful flavor punch to the face lol. If you enjoy fruity fresh drinks, this is not to be missed! Smash burger-- 4/5 This was a fantastic smash! 2 big patties, melted cheddar, and bomb French fries! My only critique was that the meat was just a tad overly salted, but with my drink and water, it wasn't too bad. Service-- 4/5 Service was decent. Possibly understaffed and/or folks who are green? We had a tough time flagging down our person on a couple occasions, but still, they were very hospitable. Overall, 4/5, we will be back!

Stopped here to grab a drink before dinner. Drink menu was fun, super unique and very good. 5 's. We got the deviled eggs as an appetizer, those were great!! Then we decided to try a pizza. That was nothing to write home about, very hard crust and not too much flavor. Would definitely come back, just not for the pizza.

The Harlequin was a sweet find in soma. The food, drinks, and service were all fantastic. The space is divided into two parts, with a main bar and a separate, more restaurant style sit down area. The lighting is generally dim and it definitely has a modern night life aesthetic similar to bars like Novela. The drinks were high-quality and overall fantastic, and there were a lot of different options. I would highly recommend the Ube Colada - the drink is a beautiful purple shade and is a great balance of sweet and bitter. The food was all delicious as well, and the shareables are all great options for when you need to refuel to continue your nighttime journey. I would recommend the crispy tofu (portion of 4) and the bone marrow - as a bonus, once you're done with it you can actually turn it into a luge for a shot of sherry that they provide! Overall I would definitely recommend checking this place out. The prices are all very reasonable, and you can tell that the staff puts effort into giving high quality service. My only recommendation - swap the bird lights for something less bright.

Ate here before a show in the adjoining Chapel, was expecting basic pub fare & it was beyond. Will definitely return.

Fabulous gem of a bar and small plate restaurant that is quintessential San Francisco. Capturing the inspiration of the historic architecture, the bar has the perfect balance of design with an intimate based setting. Offering food options like fresh oysters, pizza, frites and spicy tofu, it's a perfect date night or business meeting location with a casual and approachable atmosphere. You can grab a table or sit at the bar. Alyssa and Lauren at the bar are amazing and make the best martinis. Come here!

I will be returning for the steak, the halibut was good to but it needs a side sauce or something. The steak was absolutely perfect!!! When I do go back I will have for a different side other than fries though there good but it is a $30 I want something else with my steak. The place has a nice ambiance.

I came during the APEC Summit. The street was closed off and there was a lot of security (President Biden and President Jinping Xi were at the summit), which might explain why the place was not very busy. Once again, I was dining alone, which is best done (I think) at the bar. I was also feeling a little less than adventurous so I just got a burger (the one with bacon and bleu cheese) and a glass of wine. The burgah was killah. Yum. Excellent. So, why no five-star review? The service was pretty bad. There were three people working behind the bar and I seemed to have been invisible to two of them. And one other thing: The bill included a suggested tip - that's pretty standard, of course. But their suggested tip amounts were not based only on the cost of dinner, but also included the 4% San Francisco Mandate and 8.75 % sales tax. That's sneaky, and most restaurants do not suggest tip amounts based on added fees and taxes.

This place was a little expensive for what it is. The biggest thing going for it is the environment. Feels like a swanky new york esq place. The drinks were good, the food was okay (hit or miss honestly) and the bill came out to more than it should've been for what we got. The best things we got here was the mushroom appetizer and the watermelon beer! The crispy tofu was so bad, even our vegetarian friend didn't want it. Service was good, they kept giving us water even though we sat there for a long time without ordering more.

In being across the street the sign of the harlequin was something that caught my eye. After my friends snc I debated to eat at the place we were enjoying a drink I suggested the harlequin after looking up their menu. Upon walking in it felt like a club vibe with the music going and loud voices. We were directed to a area i which there was a sofa snd chairs. The waitress was attentive to our needs and the busser to get out water refills, I ordered the cheese plate to share and chicken sliders. The cheese platter had a wide variety of cheese and crackers snd it was cleaned out pretty quick. I enjoyed the chicken sliders which were pretty huge. I was eyeballing the Uber colada but will have to try one next time. We decided to order the strawberry cheesecake which was amazing ti thx point where my friend ordered one to go for herself. My only wish was that it wasn't so noisy with shouting which took away from the environment. Would definitely consider going back.

Came Accross this place while parking at the Marriot. *Food - Top Tier *Ambience - Great music and romantically lit *Contemporary interior / slightly mid century *Drinks - WOW We were 3 guys that travel the globe producing commercial advertising photographer and video and get to try AMAZING places. This was truly a gem to stumble upon.

We were here for the happy hour and had a great time. The house red wine was really good and the oysters were soo tasty and fresh! The pork belly baos were amazing too! We loved the ambience of the place as well.

Had a delightful dinner at the Harlequin. I loved the artwork, low lighting made of a date friendly ambiance, the music was good an not overbearing so you can have a good conversation and the food is delicious. I had the Brussels sprouts, burrata, and the Harlequin pizza. The brussels sprouts were nice and crispy loved the parmesan sprinkle m. I would've preferred some sort of drizzle to counter balance the char, but overall still a good dish. The burrata was to die for the peaches were sweet and juxtaposed to the prosciutto and balsamic, with the rich burrata on a crunch crustini, chef's kiss ! Def happy danced Finally Harley Quinn pizza, the goat cheese made for such an elevation to the dish definitely recommend! Attentive servers and impressed by their memory with such s busy crowd.

I always visit this spot when I'm in this part of town. Service is casual and friendly, and I love the ambiance of the beautiful space! They've added some new things since I was here last, including a Beyond Burger (with mushrooms and pretzel bun!) that is one of the best vegan burgers I've ever had...we'll come back more often just for that! My friends loved the Ticket to Venice and the Coyote & Crow, but I've been trying to drink less so I was thrilled by all their non-alcoholic options. Our server suggested the Thunderbird, a spirit-free version of a Jungle Bird, and after that I had a glass of zero proof sparkling wine. Delicious!

We cane to specifically watch the superbowl game watching the game and eat some food. It was a second quarter that we walked in. We were excited because we didn't feel like staying at the hotel. We ordered our drinks at our food and as we are waiting the TV kept chipping out. another couple came before us, and was very aggravated because the TV kept pausing or shutting off and they eventually left. We tried to give this place another 10 minutes or so, but the TV kept turning off every 2-3 minutes so we eventually left. Especially , like the home team playing in the Super Bowl, they should've been way more prepared.

I really love this place. It was perfect for happy hour with co workers!! So spacious!! I'm surprised I didn't come here sooner. It wasn't packed when we went after work on a Friday. Happy hour was 4-6pm so we ordered fries and oysters with a few beers on the side . The servers were very attentive. We didn't make a reservation but they accommodated us in the back room with plenty of seats. Will definitely be back.
