    I had a great experience from the fixed menu restaurant wee My girlfriend enjoyed the caviar and octopus and I myself. The cheese plate and main course steak dinner. The portion of the steak was a bit, it's small butt. Overall, a really good food experience will definitely come again Also, the ahi tuna ceviche, the cocktail drink.My girlfriend also said your drinks are superb

    This is a two-part review: one for drinks, and one for food. Great date night spot, or meet up with friends and especially for people not from SF. If you are going for drinks, I definitely recommend RoR as they have a great selection, and their cocktails were really good. 4 out of 5 stars for drinks as I felt the prices were $2-3 overpriced, and the cocktails were a smidge light on the liquor. If you are thinking of going for the food, PASS. I give it a 2 out of 5 stars. - The tuna crudo was decent, but so very basic. - The hamachi crudo was close to inedible, and had a strong fishy smell with some tasteless, pasty white sauce. - The cous cous was interesting, but uneven in flavor profile and could have used some more creativity around it. Also very basic. - The fried chicken and biscuits were way overcooked and so dry. It looked like they were leftovers and re-cooked, and every table's looked that way. For a $240 dinner with drinks for two, I could have spent less and got way more at a number of joints around SF. But, the views—you are paying for them (and getting room-service grade food.) The outdoor area is really well done and stylish with quality furniture and fire pits and propane heaters throughout. High glass walls keep the wind to a minimum. Nice touch. Will go back for drinks and views, but not the food.
