Saison San Francisco Reviews from The Last Year
During my recent dining experience, I had the pleasure of
During my recent dining experience, I had the pleasure of tasting both the Black Cod and Grilled Duck Breast, and they were absolutely delicious. The Black Cod was perfectly cooked, with a tender, flaky texture and a subtle yet flavorful seasoning. The Grilled Duck Breast was equally impressive, juicy and rich with a perfectly crisp skin. The restaurant itself boasted a warm and inviting environment, making it a delightful place to enjoy a meal. The friendly staff were attentive and offered excellent food recommendations, enhancing the overall experience. With fair prices and high-quality dishes, this restaurant is a must-visit for food enthusiasts.
High quality food and service in a cozy spot that makes you
High quality food and service in a cozy spot that makes you forget the city. I went for their abridged tasting menu with an addition of their uni toast, and everything was impeccable. Everyone there was fun, friendly, and informative. Of course each dish was put together thoughtfully, but I really loved the addition of teas and beverages that came at points throughout the meal. Everything tasted fresh and you get such a lovely diversity of flavors and textures that progress throughout the meal without being overwhelming. These days I feel that many restaurants and tasting menus overdo it, but this is an example of doing just the right amount.
Food was good but it was in courses.
The service was awesome and everything was really fancy. The one problem again, was that it was in courses. It is a michilan so I'm pretty sorry for leaving review but yea. I didn't like it. Sorry guys
greeeeaaaaaaattt food love the drinks! service is so goos
greeeeaaaaaaattt food love the drinks! service is so goos they replace your napkins when you go to the bathroom and fold them up. they offer to hang your coat and give you a handy purse holder thats magnetic, it sticks to the table. they also scoot your chair in!! :)
This place was an absolute experience.
I came on short notice and I didn't realize it was such a fine dining restaurant I definitely was not dressed for nor had a reservation but they gave me a seat at the bar and were able to curate a last minute tasting menu just for me. I feel like a total ass tho cuz I can't do math and feel like I left a gross tip I would come back here again and again and next time leave way more im such a dunse I did t wanna pull my calculator out and look dumb now I just feel like a ass
When I came to this restaurant eight years ago, it was
When I came to this restaurant eight years ago, it was almost all men with long legs. Now it's almost half women. I'm glad to see that women are treated equally in the workplace It's very thoughtful that the restaurant has prepared celebratory cards signed by the entire staff to mark the anniversary with advance reservations Whether it is dish innovation is tableware collocation, taste online, it is true that it is the old rice 3, although it has fallen out of the star for many years now, but it is still stable for 8 years. It's just the front door is a little broken and I thought the store was closed... Dishes are still salty, I don't know if my taste is really too light As always, caviar is free, wine is good, recommended!
Had a nice recent experience at Saison - beautiful
Had a nice recent experience at Saison - beautiful restaurant, solid service team, a nice menu/meal. My menu was overall pretty good, but only 2-3 dishes really stood out as truly exceptional. love the open kitchen, I was seated nearby so had a great view of everything going on - it's run very well, super clean and quiet. Lots of good technique, highlighting very seasonal ingredients, nice textures and presentations throughout, just some of the dishes didn't feel very cohesive/finished (at least at the 2/3 star level). Favorite dishes - caviar, white asparagus and geoduck, the hokkaido uni toast, and the rabbit loan/leg with morel and bone sauce. Also enjoyed the sunchoke dessert and chanterelle stroopwafel.
Came here for a birthday dinner and I truly cannot express
Came here for a birthday dinner and I truly cannot express how much love I have for this restaurant. The food was absolutely amazing - it was a special collaboration dinner which was fun to watch with their open kitchen dining space. The small bites in the beginning (especially the play on the tea egg) were so good. Another favorite of course was the sea urchin (we've decided this will be my new love language). All the staff were also so attentive and sweet, and I loved the birthday cake they brought out at the end as well! Overall, could not say enough nice things about this place, and highly recommend!
Came here for our anniversary.
We have been wanting to dine at Saison for many years and we were very excited to finally book a table. Meal started out nice. We were sat at an amazing table and were secluded in a corner, fantastic. Excellent view of the kitchen and was just a nice place to sit and enjoy the meal. Although no amuse bouche, instead, tea. Which was good, but it was basically honey tea and something I can find from almost any top quality tea company if I'm being honest. Oyster with green strawberry and celery was balanced in flavor but underwhelming and not memorable as a starter, especially with no amuse bouche/small bites. My wife doesn't eat oyster so an incomparable substitute of celery and two thin slices of green strawberry was served. For this caliber of restaurant I don't understand this substitute, as it's inadequate to say the least. Also I didn't understand the main course - while I had antelope, which was cooked nicely but had overly sweet components (huckleberry) - she was served, a carrot. Which actually the carrot was incredible and delectable, and while I realize the amount of work and time that went into that carrot, it was certainly a humble comparison and a fraction of the cost to antelope. Her dish also included harissa, which was used twice in two separate courses. This shouldn't happen at a restaurant of this caliber. As a private chef for 25 years for very high end clients and with a vast knowledge of all cuisines and food in general, I found the servers descriptions extremely lacking in content. I want to know what's in the dish. The details. What have the kitchen and chefs been spending hours and days preparing. This does a disservice to the intensely hard work done by the kitchen team. I understand over wording can be too much, but even when I asked questions they were short as if they didn't know. What was interesting was with the wine pairing, long descriptions were given and even stories and history of the wineries, and it dragged on and on considerably far too long. I wish that detail was given to the food! Service was robotic and not genuine or sincere, as if they were going through the motions. At this level I would expect more personality and humility. The biggest disappointment of the evening was when the crab course came out. First of three parts was a "salad" and mine was delicious and I enjoyed it. However, my wife had a very long human hair in her course. It was not hers as this hair was a different color and was also layered into the lettuce - when I tried to pull it out, it was entwined into the lettuce. I don't understand how this is possible with so many eyes composing this dish? They were not very apologetic about it at the time, perhaps in shock it happened as I know this doesn't happen, but it did. I did not take pictures of this course because we were simply in a state of shock. We kept looking at each other in awe of what to do and how to react. Completely caught us off guard. When received the bill they did comp us the uni toast, but this certainly left us disappointed and questioning everything. Memorable dishes: Geoduck and caviar - amazing Ocean trout - new & excellent dish Uni toast - should of ordered two Sunchoke dessert - outstanding For over $950, we had many amazing moments, some sub par ones, and even horrific (the hair) for this level of dining. It was nice to try and check off my list - I likely will not return.
Well Saison sets the bar for service for sure.
The staff was incredibly attentive, kind and knowledgeable.I especially enjoyed the wine pairing with my food, the sommelier did a fantastic job and taught me some things about wine. The restaurant itself was beautiful and laid out well, the lighting and ambience was perfect and seating was incredibly comfortable. So much so that after a long day of walking I was trying not to fall asleep. Now to the food, there were some standout courses but overall it was just okay and I've had much better at the price point. The tea to start out was the best I've had in my life, the oyster course was phenomenal. Followed by the caviar and crab both of which missed the mark. The white asparagus with the caviar just had a weird consistency with not a great flavor combination. The trout, rabbit and antelope courses were also just fine, nothing really to write about. The Wagyu addon was possibly the best piece of steak i have had in my life. The desserts definitely missed the mark and the stroopwafel was way off. Overall it was a great experience and I enjoyed myself but it felt like the courses could have complemented each other more
They pulled a bait and switch pushed to bar seating yet
They pulled a bait and switch pushed to bar seating yet didn't offer abridged menu. Overpriced for pulling a fast one despite specific stating we do not want the full menu in the bar seating. Don't be the schmuck taking bar seating but pay the full menu price. Second time this occurred - wont return ever again. Over $1k before drinks for menu. Beware they are shady. You will have a better experience at many other places in the city Quince, Californios, and others.
My babe took me here before a game.
Brilliant and unique food. Non-pretentious and great soundtrack. Lighting is A1. And love the French styled kitchen. The service is very personal and friendly.
Remarkable! It is a experience you will not regret! It was
Remarkable! It is a experience you will not regret! It was a perfect blend of pure enjoyment and focused culinary excellence. Each dish brought a sense of joy and contentment, making the entire meal not just delicious but truly memorable. All staff members are friendly and approachable as well. Super attentive and throughly explained each dish. My husband I came here for our anniversary and it was a delightful 12 course meal with wine pairing journey that left us feeling genuinely happy. Highly recommend for a special dining experience!
Great date night!
We went last night for the abbreviated menu and it was delightful. Perfect service that was both professional and playful. The smell alone is worth another star. The food was sublime and the wine pairings were different but matched beautifully. The chef came by and visited with us and he was lovely. Beautiful room and a gorgeous kitchen.
This evening was a gift from our son.
. he arranged the entire weekend for us and was beyond excited for us to dine here. The experience exceeded our expectations Food, service and ambience were on point it was my first time trying Uni, oysters, rabbit and antelope.. all were excellent The service was amazing and we felt very pampered. If you are in the area, it's a must try for sure
(Part 2 of 2) After the wagyu (which was 105 out of 100 by
(Part 2 of 2) After the wagyu (which was 105 out of 100 by the way, rivaling how that same wagyu might have come out at a top notch restaurant in Tokyo), we were asked if we would like to tour the kitchen. We obliged - I suspected we were behind schedule because of that second uni serving, so the staff took the opportunity to transition us smoothly from our table to the bar - minimizing the awkwardness which I really appreciate. That was service done with grace. At the bar, we ended our meal with s'more on a little ember fire, chocolate cream with granola, and ice cream. Then there was good stroopwafel with hot tea. The s'more with something frozen inside and the ice cream were my favorite. We could have asked for more s'more but we were quite full by then and have used up our thick skin quota of the day (lol). The chocolate cream was as good as great chocolate should be but I am not a chocolate person so not much I could say. The biggest question I had (and still have now) is who brought us the uni? The person looked like Chef Lee himself and might I say, handsome (haha). Thank you, Chef! As we exited Saison and back to the SF stormy night, I started thinking about going back to Saison, one day.
0 stars if I could!!!! Stray away :( The only plus side
0 stars if I could!!!! Stray away :( The only plus side of this $1K meal (yes you see it correctly $1000+ meal) is our seating view into the kitchen. The serving of caviar was great but then each dish afterwards went downhill. Was served a bunch of overly sugar diabetes desserts as courses Disappointing. Monumental anniversary celebration at this scammy restaurant.
A delightful experience with an exceptional wine pairing

Splendid Saison
What a splendid meal at Saison. An innovative and tasty set menu with many standout dishes and presentation - lobster tartare, uni, white truffle pasta, duck etc. I would probably skip the wagyu supplement next time since i’m not a fan of wagyu generally Service top notch and friendly as well The kitchen tour was a plus 9.5/10
Exceptional all around
We went to visit our kids. Saison experience was beyond expectations. Staff game us exceptional service. Food and drinks were well presented and delicious.
Loved our experience at Saison.
From the first moment we went in, it felt like we were taken care of. We sat at the corner with a view of the entire kitchen. The food was paced to come out pretty soon after we finished each dish. With the wine pairing, I was absolutely stuffed by the end of the meal. Loved most of the food we tried and the wine pairing was excellent. They had fairly reasonable pours, I probably could split one in the future. caviar costal seaweeds - this dish comes with so much caviar and perfectly paired with champagne, definitely one of my favorites for the night. 5/5 spiny lobster & lamb broth of its shells - excellent option, really loved this dish as well. the broth was stellar. First time having lamb tartare. 5/5 black cod, pine mushroom, geoduck clam - also loved this. Paired well with the wine. 5/5 carrot harissa - carrot was too chewy for my liking brioche red miso butter - came as a side for the carrot, honestly liked this more. 3/5 sea urchin grilled sourdough - love uni, like that there was enough uni for the toast. 4/5 duck - heart & gizzard. duck sausage with nasturtium leaf Heart was the tastiest thing, duck was juicy. 4/5 wagyu - A5 supplement that was split. I liked it but it's not really done any differently than anywhere else. 4/5 s'mores - neat dish, definitely a huge novelty factor pine, chigory graham cracker. 5/5 lemon poppy seed cake - tasty treat for our anniversary stroopwafel - took this home as we were too full
Had the abridged menu for a special occasion And added Uni
Had the abridged menu for a special occasion And added Uni toast and risotto with truffle. Outstanding flavor, service , ambiance. Highly recommend and our favorite Michelin 2 star in the world so far !
This place gets all the accolades and it delivered for me.
My husband took me here for my birthday and boy did the staff at Saison make me feel special the whole time. Everyone said happy birthday to me, the hostess, the sommelier, every server. The place feels like a man cave meets a modern kitchen. Kind of masculine decor, but with pillows and fur on the banquets. The food was phenomenal. Every dish was so good. Standouts for me were the duck course, the uni toast, the raw fish course, and the wagyu. We did the wine pairing, but it might have been a little too much wine for me. And that's saying something. The wine list is like 300 pages and we got overwhelmed looking at it to choose a bottle. But I'm sure the sommelier would have made a recommendation. They even gave us a tour of the kitchen and let us take a picture with the chef and kitchen staff. It was a very memorable night, even with all that wine. Fancy, formal, but the staff wasn't pretentious. Very special experience.
Well Worth A Visit!
Didn’t know much about Saison other than it’s Michelin Star before entering the restaurant late last month. By the time I left Chef de Cuisine Richard Lee and his top-notch team of souls chefs, pastry chefs, sommelier and servers schooled me in the culinary art of fine dining al la San Francisco. A solo diner, I was seated with a view of the very active kitchen and it was a real treat to watch as my food was prepared. The food was fresh, creative and above all tasty. Favorites included the crab, sea urchin, melon with ginger, the duck and the berries. I guess the highest praise I can give the restaurant is that I will happily return during a future visit to SF. Excellent job Team Saison!

Great Service - amazing dinner!!
Read about the site in NYT and bought a reservation at Mother Wolf in LA 2 days later. Worked great and the food was amazing!!!
Worked perfectly!
Got the reservation (that I couldn't get anywhere else) and was able to entertain a group of friends at the infamous Bern's Steakhouse.
Got into Nobu Malibu
Wonderful! My parents are visiting and we have wanted to go to Nobu Malibu for years. I tried getting a reservation myself but it was next to impossible. So glad I was able to buy a reservation on appointment trader for a decent price!
Very easy
Was very hesitant going into this experience but am glad to say that it worked out very well ! will definitely use appointment trader in the future
Fabulous Lunch
I was veeeeeerry skeptical that this would work, particularly at a restaurant as hard to get into as Nobu Malibu, and it was perfect! We had lunch outside on the patio and it was fabulous!
Great reviewer team
Just wanted to take a second to shout out the reviewer team. Even though they probably review hundreds of listings and bids a day, they still take the time to leave great comments and respond relatively quickly. Thanks!
Incredible
I got a reservation to Don Angie, which I've been trying to book for weeks! I am very happy with this service.
Best platform out there!
Super simple, easy, and fast to secure reservations for hard-to-get restaurants and locations!
This app is life changing
This app has opened my world up to so many wonderful new experiences I would never have the chance to have without access to this awesome app! 10/10!
Worked perfectly
Was a little nervous at first but was pleased to see that the booking went through flawlessly.
Highly recommended.
Success on Short Notice
Was able to snag an indoor table at Don Angie through an absolutely seamless worry-free process.
Worked perfectly, thank you!
This is a crazy holiday season in NYC and I was very pleasantly surprised to see that AppointmentTrader works! Will be using again!
Worked flawlessly!
Worked so well! I was a bit nervous, but everything went very smoothly. purchased the reservation, and got into the restaurant seamlessly.
Love this app!
So glad I came across this app :)
Quick table in Miami
I didn’t have my hopes high as it was a party of 4. In 24 hours I had a carbone reservation available! I was very happy as my family really wanted to come here
Prime time, great meal
So easy and had a prime time which I can never seem to get on normal res apps. So worth it
Got impossible NYC res
instead of waiting weeks I got my 4 charles reservation instantly
Worked perfectly to get into Carbone. So delighted
perfect
Worked well, got me into a restaurant with no availability
I was skeptical, and I still don't really know how they managed to find this hard-to-find reservation, but it was a win-win from my point of view, and I'll use this service again.
Last minute reservation for Delilah Las Vegas
Got a last minute reservation, dinner for 2 at Delilah Las Vegas: super impressed! The process was simple, transaction seamless. We had an amazing time! Couldn’t be happier! 😍
It works!
Ok at this point I've attended a reservation purchased on AT by a friend and sold a reservation personally. Both worked pretty smoothly, nothing sketchy about it. A few areas for improvement including a way to more directly communicate between buyers and sellers, but the app always seems to be in development. AT customer support is really(!) responsive and helpful too if you have questions!
Money transfer
As a seller, I like the fact i have the ability now to transfer money out of my AT account and into a bank account. Makes getting the money much easier then the process before.
Love this app
Got to go to places otherwise unreachable
Easy Access
Very easy to get into one of the hardest restaurants to reserve in New York.
Payouts Blocked Because of Sell Through Rate
Does anyone know how AT plans to handle cases where a seller is quitting the platform but has a sell through rate <25%? The error message I got said to fill more bids or find other ways to increase the rate.
Is AT really going to block sellers from withdrawing their money? Especially revenue made before the sell through rate was introduced??
Tune into NBC News - Top Story Tonight 7:40p ET
Let’s go. Get more people placing bids!
I will give you 50% of ALL of my PROFITS if you teach me how to make profits?
LOL. Thank you The New Yorker.
Appointment
Transferring reservations is not supported in AT. Why not just use the name in the AT screenshot?
Buyers interested in Bern's Steakhouse: PLEASE READ
Same goes for 4 Charles and I Sodi
Prepaid Reservation Fee
Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.
Congrats on 3 mil

Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it?
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid?
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted.
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome
to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from?
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered?
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
