Excellent Service and Amazing Mac and Cheese!
My experience at the restaurant was truly excellent. The service was outstanding, and the Mac and Cheese was the best I have ever had. The overall experience was highly positive, with top marks for food, service, and atmosphere.

Luxurious Experience with Delicious Food
My experience at this restaurant felt like a luxury experience. The waiter was very attentive, and the food was rich. I particularly enjoyed the crab dip and creamed spinach. Just a note, while they have onsite parking, our rental (Jeep Wagoneer XL) would not fit the clearance, and we had to street park.

Great Food, Payment Hassle
My experience at this restaurant was marked by great food. However, the main negative aspect was the difficulty with payment. They were super difficult when we wanted to pay with Apple Pay, so I recommend bringing a physical card.

Enjoyable Meal with a Few Minor Quibbles
My experience at Bobo's was largely positive. The restaurant has a unique Harlequin theme and offers a pleasant atmosphere with a bar on the first floor and three distinct dining rooms. I enjoyed a glass of Merlot, Emmolo by Caymus, Rutherford, 2016. For food, the Maui Onion Ring, beer-battered with sriracha aioli, was good. The Steak & Crab, a combination of 6 oz filet mignon and 1/2 crab, was also good and not too salty. To finish, the Chocolate Lava Cake with vanilla gelato was good, though I could have done without the whipped cream. The price per person was between $50–100.

Underrated Steakhouse with Great Food & Service
My experience at this restaurant was truly satisfying. We visited because my family and friends were craving steak, and we were all in the vicinity. Despite a bit of a line upon arrival, my patience paid off as we were eventually seated on the top floor. The interior offered a high-end fine dining experience with its dark ambiance and subtle ceiling lights. The menu is diverse, featuring small bites, salads, steaks (cooked medium-rare by default but adjustable), seafood, and more. The staff were welcoming, well-trained, and understanding, contributing significantly to my positive visit. From the food to the service, it was a great experience. They also offer convenient valet parking located under the restaurant, which is a huge plus in this usually packed area with limited parking. I highly recommend this place to steak enthusiasts, those looking to try something new, or anyone seeking a laid-back spot. I'm definitely planning a return visit to explore their other delicious offerings.

Mixed Experience with Steak and Price
My experience at this restaurant was a mix of highs and lows. I had a tomahawk steak that was cooked to perfection, which was a definite highlight. However, the person I was with had the filet mignon and unfortunately, it was overcooked. The restaurant is on the pricier side, so be prepared to spend at least $100 per person. The atmosphere was rated a 4 and the service was also rated a 4, indicating a generally pleasant dining environment and attentive staff.

Delicious Steak Dinner, Highly Recommended
My first dining experience here a couple of Fridays ago was a success! I thoroughly enjoyed my steak dinner, and the filet mignon was particularly super tasty. The accompanying sides were also delicious. I would definitely dine here again the next time I'm in SF.

Good food and service, but loud diner ruined atmosphere
My experience at the restaurant involved good steaks and attentive and polite service. However, the atmosphere for our table and two others was significantly disrupted by a woman at the next table, who was possibly drunk and spoke very loudly. It was impossible to hear anything over her shouting. Thankfully, the wait staff moved her table, allowing the rest of us to enjoy our meals, including singing 'Happy Birthday' to another party.
