The Post Room

The food was divine. I just had to leave a good review :) Our server Tessa was incredibly considerate and nice ;) Will come back to the place.

I had the lobster Benedict for breakfast and the lobster unfortunately had such a fishy taste. The Benedict was delicious, but the lobster itself just had an unsatisfactory lack of freshness. That being said, if you’re coming later in the day, this bar has some of the most tasty drinks ever! Can’t go wrong with a bourbon old fashioned or espresso martini! One of the best you’ll ever have! Edited to say I just had their mushroom risotto and it is to die for! The truffle and Parmesan really compliment each other and shine through in this dish. An absolute flavor bomb, you will not be disappointed.

I was in San Francisco for multiple days and this was by far the best food and drink San Francisco had to offer all thanks to my bartender, Casey. He was funny, entertaining, and well experienced in his craft of making cocktails. I greatly appreciated the hospitality and kindness he showed to me while I was here. When I come back to San Francisco, I would love to see him again.

My partner and I came for a high tea date. The Beacon Grand has lovely 1920s architecture, and the presentation of the high tea was very nice. But while the food and tea tasted ok they were not amazing. For $105 per person (plus mandatory 20% gratuity, plus tax) they could have done better. The sandwiches had good ingredients but tasted like they had been prepared several hours in advance and were getting a little dry. And our server was skimpy on the loose leaf tea so the tea was weak. Plus the server wasn’t knowledgeable about the tea either (she brought us tea timers, but when I asked how long each of our tea varieties should steep for, she said it was just a matter of personal preference). I had a nice time since I don’t go out for experiences like this often, but I can’t say I’d recommend this high tea for the price.

An elegant restaurant in the iconic Union Square area of San Francisco. The ricotta pancakes were amazingly fluffy and light. The lobster Benedict was so delicious. Our server was attentive, polite, and professional. I definitely will be back!

This lounge restaurant was renamed to The Post Room recently from its former Beacon Lounge. The food is great but seems a little pricy for what you get. The service is however excellent, and service fee is included in the bill. The whole place has a classic antique look and feel to it. It's a quiet escape from the busy Powell Street that is easily accessible for classy and elegant dining experience.

Don’t miss this one! Incredible atmosphere and the food is incredible! We tried their chicken, brussel sprouts and topped it off with a strawberry basil cheesecake! AMAZING!

TLDR: friendly service and great food I absolutely loved the bread and the lamb shank. They were very accommodating and took care of us very well. The food was very good, and the prices are a little bit high though the quality is also high as well.

Very nice welcome by the Barman who made a delicious Lemon martini for me , great taste and everything was spectacular, this is a very warm bar/restaurant at the Beacon Grand . I also ordered some bar food , a cheese plate , what a nice selection of cheese and toast , just perfect with the drinks . Please try out the The Post Room you won't be disappointed.

The restaurant is inside the Beacon. Beautifully decorated. A very peaceful ambiance. When we got there they were just opening. I wanted to try it as I had 2 vouchers for drinks and saw they had an espresso martini (not available). I was disappointed the drinks were only good for the mimosa or Prosecco. The Prosecco was good. My friend ordered a chicken Caesar salad, without meat $18 with meat they added $12. I thought it was overpriced as it was a small appetizer salad. I ordered a medium cooked burger, this was close to $30. The burger was perfect to me. Flavorful, delish and a nice size. The fries were flavorful but could be a little more crunchy. Our bill was $73 total (no tip) it included a service charge of $12... The service was good. He was nice, not going out of his way to talk. The food came pretty quickly after we ordered.

Tessa our server was amazing and took great care of us. They have a nice menu selection and we didn't wait long to be seated. The food is good, and portions are not too small. The eggs Benedict were pretty good.

Had drinks at the bar on a Saturday night. There was live piano and a singer. The atmosphere was so lovely and elegant. The bartender was friendly, and the drinks were delicious. It's feels like you've gone back in time!

The reviews I read were really positive so we decided to give this place a try when we first arrived in San Francisco. This was my first meal in this city, so I don't want to be too harsh , but I must. The menu has good variety. We started with the 'famous house rolls'. $10 for 3 rolls and "honey butter'. Fine but not worth the cost of something that I think should be complimentary. I ordered mushroom risotto. It was tasty, but runny. Semi-unappealing. The burger and fries my husband ordered were fine. No complaints! So the food was okay. The service was very friendly , but slow. We sat for a food 20 minutes after the meal was cleared away and didn't see the server again. We had to flag her to get the check. Based on previous reviews I expected a speak- easy vibe. Not the case. It was so loud I had to keep asking my husband to repeat what he was saying because I couldn't hear him over the sound of a mediocre piano player/singer. I felt like I was sitting here in a gymnasium listening to a high school audition. On a positive note, the best thing about this place were the cocktails. They were well-crafted and tasty.

Great vibes! Fun piano music. Great craft cocktails. Excellent customer service! Relax in SF & unwind!

The food is well above average, but make a reservation in hopes you can be seated away from the large and loud bar area. The food here is certainly well prepared, the service is very good, but we came away feeling the prices are high for what you get. I don't think we would ever go back there.

They didn't insult us... so they don't get 1 star. But we were 1 of 2 tables on a Saturday... everything we ordered sucked (shaksukka, lobster Benedict, and Cobb salad). Somehow the one modification (over easy instead of sunny side up eggs) they didn't do. I would have sent it back but no one came over to check in on us. Plus that was the worse shakshukka dish I ever had, tasted like canned tomatoes.

It's new so I'll cut then slack by giving 4 stars. The service was fine but not great. The maple butter that came with the buns was scrumptious. I enjoyed the whole fish, well cooked and presented. But the pasta used in the cannelloni was so smooth and lovely, I could eat that pasta all day. The real treat is the space, we were in the big room just off the main room, and it's pretty cool.

I loved the ambience!! It is located within the Beacon hotel and has nice decor. The menu had some options. The mushroom risotto was spectacular in my opinion. Tessa, our server was very sweet and made me want to come back!

I am appalled at this restaurant. We chose this venue for dinner before a show because the pictures showed a beautiful ambiance. In reality the food was overcooked, or small, or overpriced. We started our meal ordering a bottle of sauv blanc. They didn't have the bottle on the menu so they brought out a Rodney strong ($10 bottle) but charged $72 (which we didn't know until we got the bill). We also ordered a bottle of cava sparkling wine. When opening the bottle, it overflowed all over the table. The server said he'd bring additional glasses to make up for the spilled wine but he never brought them--again, rediculous upsell on the booze. We ordered the branzino which came with so many bones it was inedible. We ordered the lobster ravioli which in the pictures had way more ravioli and way more lobster--it came out with 2 pieces of overcooked chewy lobster. We ordered the buratta which was too sweet. The highlight of the meal was the dinner roles which came out with 3 roles but were a party of 4. How many tables do you get with 3 guests?! Their was a mandatory 20% charge.

Ambiance: 5/5. Live music, dim lit room, and beautiful architecture. Really enjoyed dinner here Service: 2/5. This place is new, so things have to be ironed out. In my 2 hours at the restaurant I saw servers bring plates to the wrong table 4-6 times. I was there for over two hour because our order was probably forgotten and food came out almost 1.5 hrs after we ordered. After we said we would leave, they expedited the food Food: 1/5. Gf got food poisoning here. Fries were not great. The best dish was the roasted brussel sprouts.

Awful! STAY AWAY!! We went for high tea and what a joke! On the website it said it was $90 pp when we got there it was $105 then they charged us 20% mandatory " service fee" for AWFUL service and TERRIBLE food!! We have had " High tea" in England multiple times and this was nothing like it!! They cooked tiny pieces of tasteless bread. The deserts were not good and the little sandwiches were made with cheep wonder bread. I had to chase the waitress around because she left food off our shared plate because of some food only I did not like. The place seems run by an Asian couple who has never been to a high tea in their lives! Nearly $300 food bill for food that was cheep and poorly made! And a 20% service fee for horrible service. This is a JOKE and SO over priced I was not at all surprised to read it was new!! They will be out of business in no time!! Don't waste your money!!!!

The food was very good, the service excellent , and the ambience great. We had Bronzino , heirloom tomatoes ( truly delicious ), lobster ravioli , their famous rolls ( yes, there were 3 large slices that I easily cut into 6), and roasted chicken. Every dish was well made. We got bday dessert on the house. Recommend

I should have paid attention to the negative reviews here and on OpenTable. We arrived at 3:30 pm for our holiday tea reservation. The restaurant manager checked us in and casually told us that we have to wait for 30 minutes because they have an event. Why did they accept reservation and not holding a a table for guests? I don't think he understand how the reservation works. We told them we are going to another restaurant because we don't want to wait that long. His response was "Ok". Not even an apology. We were trying to support local business, but this one doesn't deserve any support from us.

Went here for lunch on Sunday. Had to wait 30 minutes for our reservation. When we were sat they gave us a table in the back corner next to a table full of kids. The food took forever and wasn't what was described on the menu. No lemon on the Ice-T. Way too expensive for what it is and the service is lacking in the details. Avoid this restaurant. I honestly would have had a better meal and time at the Cheesecake Factory.

We came here for Thanksgiving evening. The scenery, ambience, and service were good, but the food is overpriced and mediocre as other reviews have noted. If they improved the food, I think this place would be pretty awesome. The neighborhood needs improvement with less sketch bothering our city's visitors, but maybe our new mayor will help.

Food, dining room, and service fine. The 20% service charge outrageous. I understand services charges not be tips. I complained and they took it off (but await confirmation when my credit card bill arrives. I won't be back.

Attentive service, expertly prepared food, live music, upscale ambience.... What's not to love about this place?? I had my birthday event here and it was our first time. We loved all the food we ordered. Grill branzino was amazing. They kept the wine flowing. The servers did everything they could to ensure we have a good time. We will definitely be back.

The service was amazing and our server was fantastic! Super friendly, accommodating and helpful. The food was pretty disappointing for the prices. We got the Caesar salad and I do not recommend ordering it. It was VERY fishy to the point that I couldn't really tolerate- and I love oysters and pretty much all seafood, but this was concerning. I can't remember the last time I didn't finish something i ordered from a restaurant. I appreciated the ambiance- the seats were very comfortable and the room is beautiful.

My husband and I live in the neighborhood and we love to come here to share a burger and a nice glass of wine. And also the epic 7 Spice old-fashioned, in their sumptuous luxury hotel velveteen environment. We've been served multiple times by Soukaina, who is wonderful, and always adds a special luminescence and joy to the experience.

The chef, bartenders, and hostess were great, but the service is awful and slow. They have a mandatory 20% tip on top of their union wages and benefits--extortion.

I found this place when I was in town last week and came back again tonight because it was so good! The staff was wonderful, drinks were great, food was delicious and the ambiance is amazing!! Sounds like it is a new restaurant in the Beacon Grand Hotel and it is truly an excellent addition. I highly recommend and will definitely be back here the next time I'm staying in Union Square.

food was cooked very well. There was nothing we would have changed. The cost was comparable to the price of the hotel and the hotel/restaurant was beautiful, they did a good job of keeping and emphasizing the historic charm. Perfect dinner for the first night at the hotel.

Be careful, I got food poisoning after eating a $25 burger (lettuce wrap). It's a lovely setting but I think that the restaurant is under new management. The servers were very nice though.

The space is incredible. 5 stars! The food is good. 4 stars. Another reviewer pointed this out but why does the homemade bread come in 3 pieces regardless of how many people are at the table? Do they get a lot of 3 tops? We had a party of 7 and got two orders and got 6 pieces. For 7 of us. Just throw in a 7th piece! For a 4 top, throw in a 4th piece. 3 pieces is just a weird choice by the chef. The service was average. 3 stars. The waiter spilled the water each and every time he filled up each and every glass. It became a running joke at the table whenever he approached the table to refill the waters. "Will he spill the water again? $5 says he spills it on every glass. You're on!" Not bad overall. Amazing space. Some fine tuning is still needed.

Since the City has allowed our beautiful world class City to be ruined it is wonderful to see what was once old is now new again. A incredibly beautiful vintage hotel, live music, fantastic service by Tessa a truly beautiful hospitality professional and Zach a true manager that comes out to ensure Tessa is being supported to provide loving care for all the guest. We are coming back with friends!! Help support hospitality businesses thar care. Thank you!!!

Great food, comfortable atmosphere, and exceptional service! Every single staff member was attentive, genuinely friendly, and graciously welcoming. A special shoutout to Tessa!! Thank you for a wonderful experience and a great meal!

I and my friend were at this restaurant and really enjoyed the food that was provided by Soukina. She is really talented and professional waitress who satisfied our expectations:)))

Hoping for a fun New Year's Eve brunch and planning to support downtown SF I invited out of town family to the Post Room. The reservation was for 1:15. We were visited by the server who took drink orders (we were waiting for the last couple who were parking). At 1:30 the server informed us that the kitchen closed at 1:30 and we needed to put our orders in. Mind you, we would have already ordered if the server had checked back! Then we waited....and waited...drinks finally arrived after about 1/2 hour. More waiting....asked for bread at 2:15 and were informed the kitchen was closed so no bread. At 2:30 we asked another server about our food and were finally served a few minutes later. Meanwhile we were offered a bottle of cheap Prosecco as an apology. Totally unacceptable. Why the heck do they take a 1:15 reservation if they can't accommodate it? The space itself was lovely and the food pretty good. Hopefully if you came earlier the service would be better. However, this experience ruined our New Year's Eve.

The food was nice. It could be perked up a little but the renovated ambiance is quite beautiful. The service was quite good as it wasn't too busy on a Saturday Brunch but it's just after the holidays all the better for us lol. I'm looking forward to the food being as innovative as the ambiance soon!! My steak and eggs were as ordered and my birthday guest enjoyed the lobster eggs Benedict. A little something added to the plates might be nice to keep them appearing like most of the current restaurants in the city. We could use a special place in the City.

BEWARE: They charged each of us in our group a 20% "service charge" and then had the audacity to point out to us that the tip line on the bill was blank. Believing this meant no tip had been included (as the blank "tip" line was obviously meant to), I gave a further tip. Later when I got home and read the receipt more closely I realized: we paid two tips. How would you feel?

It was a wonderful experience at Post Room, their service is superb and their food is top-notch while the ambiance have never see it in any place

Highly recommend! Food was awesome. Service was amazing. We were pleasantly surprised. Last minute plans. Had the dozen oysters with bottle of champagne. Burger was cooked to perfection and moist. Fries were one of the best I had. Dessert was also yummy. Will be back. There was also live music. The venue itself was nice as well.

Visit this restaurant for history of the hotel and ambiance of the venue but not so much the food. The oysters were not fresh. The cannelloni was bland. The chicken was good though.

Really beautiful space and friendly service. The drinks and good were really good, we had the fried mushrooms and the Brussel sprouts on the side of the steak. All delicious and we will definitely return. The only reason for the 4 stars instead of 5 is that it took over 10 minutes for someone to come take our order and then another 10-15 minutes for our drinks to arrive. Not a deal breaker for us but definitely something to be aware of. Also, their fireplace isn't working which is such a shame because that's all I wanted to do, sit by the fire and have a lovely meal. Hopefully it's working soon!!

Benedith was amazing. She gave a wonderful service on our post thanksgiving day. Cudos to her service!

Great food, service and ambiance. Highlight of the night was the dinner rolls! It's a must try when dinning @ThePostRoom.
