Great Jazz, Good Food!
My experience at this restaurant was enjoyable, offering a great atmosphere for live jazz and a quick bite. I particularly enjoyed the grilled mushroom main, which was very good. The fried chicken strips were also a hit, coming with a good selection of sauces. The restaurant is vegetarian-friendly, with clearly labeled vegetarian dishes and a high recommendation for vegetarians. While the noise level was loud, it was still possible to hold a conversation.

Perfect Engagement Party Venue!
We had our engagement party at Curio last weekend, and Patricia and her team did an amazing job transforming the dining room into the perfect space for our event! The staff were incredibly attentive and accommodating. Everyone loved their drinks and had an absolute blast. I highly recommend having a private event at Curio!

SF Burger I'll Miss Most!
Having just moved away from SF, their burger is one of the things I think I will miss the most! Make sure you get it with the cheese katsu. The live music was also great.

Disappointing Experience, Overpriced Food
My experience at this restaurant was the definition of mid. I ordered two tiny quesabirria tacos, which were about as thin as my pinky finger, and they cost $18. The curly fries were rock solid. I could accept the prices if the food was actually decent; alas, it was not. The atmosphere was somewhat interesting, and the service was acceptable. However, I still wouldn’t come back.

Great food, music, and drinks!
My experience at the restaurant was fantastic! I had a really good burger and fries while enjoying some live music. The jazz reggae artist was great, and the cocktails were also well balanced and delish. The food was excellent, the atmosphere was lively, and the service was top-notch.

Best Neighborhood Bar with Great Music
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! The staff were incredibly helpful and sweet. They also played great music, which really added to the atmosphere. It's the best neighborhood bar with amazing tunes.

Terrible Brunch Experience
My experience at this restaurant was pretty terrible. We had a group of 10 for brunch, all opting for bottomless mimosas. Despite the restaurant being 75% empty, we only managed to get a mimosa refill every 20 minutes, and often not enough for the whole group. Our waitress was passive-aggressive throughout the meal. The breakfast burrito was described as gross, with skimped portions of eggs and meat. Additionally, they closed the overhead canopy on a beautiful day for no apparent reason. I have no idea why anyone would choose to come here when there are much better options in the area.

Top-notch food and live music brunches!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! I wish they were open for food service more often. The stuffed mushrooms, burger, and cocktails are all top notch. I've been there many times and love exploring the rest of the menu too. I especially love their live music brunches.
