The Palm Court at RH San Francisco

"Say what you want about Restoration Hardware (ahem, RH) restaurants, they’re certainly luxe. The decor here — glittering chandeliers, a marble fountain, plush camel-colored sofas and chairs — creates a vibe that’s 75 percent Italian art museum, 25 percent McMansion. The menu skews expensive here, but highlights include the caviar starters, the Wagyu ribeye, and the truffle fries; weekend brunch starts at 10 a.m." - Justine Jones, Dianne de Guzman

"The views of the city at the RH gallery restaurant rooftop can’t be beat. The food is comically expensive and equally forgettable, but if you need a drink and a rooftop with a view, like, yesterday, Palm Court is a stellar choice. Order wine from one of two ground floor bars inside this historic neoclassical building, then pass Greco-Roman statues, leather beds, and travertine tables before heading up the elevator to the garden-like roof. If you want to pretend you can actually afford a new home in the city—and feel posh surrounded by couches and fire pits with exorbitant price tags—you will enjoy this place.

"Let’s be honest, even among regular power lunchers, Palm Court is an indulgence. But some occasions (hint: a highly Instagrammable lunch with a social media-savvy out-of-towner) call for marble, splendor, and a $50 avocado adorned with caviar. For humbler budgets, go for the loaded salads or a rotisserie chicken sandwich; they’re just as cute." - Flora Tsapovsky

"Palm Court in the Dogpatch is all about excess. The RH gallery restaurant is dripping with marble, tiered-glass chandeliers, and towering (but fake) palm trees. And everything from the modular couches to the travertine tables in the surrounding showrooms and the restaurant itself is for sale. In line with the luxurious theme—and the goal of getting you to spend as much money as is humanly possible—the food on the live-fire menu is comically expensive and equally forgettable. But don’t come for the full meal. Instead, use Palm Court as an excuse to get some more wear out of your bright pink mini dress with puff sleeves or sunglasses that kind of make you look like a bug, and take photos with some champagne on the expansive rooftop. " - julia chen 1, ricky rodriguez

"This Dogpatch restaurant is all about excess. Think tiered-glass chandeliers and towering (but fake) palm trees—in other words, this is where to go when you want to dress up without being stared at, or to bust out those sunglasses that kind of make you look like a bug and take photos against a backdrop of marble and gold. Yes, the food at this RH gallery restaurant is comically expensive and equally forgettable. But if you’re curious about what micro-influencers do in their free time, are coming with someone who’s picking up the bill, or needs a photogenic place for a lavish engagement party, this place delivers. " - julia chen 1
