Restaurants near Davies Symphony Hall

We had a pre-theater dinner. Seated promptly at reservation time. Orange and beet salad was a perfect combo I wouldn't have thought of. Both mains were very good. The mushrooms on the risotto stood out. Tables are close, but this is a city after all.

Dining at Hayes Street Grill always feels like being with family! Everyone is so nice and the atmosphere is always so warm! I do have to add that after several years of dining there that they can update or tweak their menu a little bit.

One of the most consistent French restaurants in SF. The onion soup is outstanding and is that way every time you come here. In fact practically everything is consistent with each visit. OK, since there are rarely specials you might get bored after a few visits. That's the only downside. Otherwise, this is a great place all around. I prefer the side dining room as it's quieter and more restaurant line as bar side room that is far more energetic and, many times, more annoying. Any dish here is good but my favorite is Petrale Sole. Be aware that portion sizes are very generous. Ask your server if you can order a half-sized portion as many times they are available (you have to ask). Generally, you'll have a good time here.

We booked the reservation due to its close proximity to the Davies. The food was fantastic. Each of the 8 courses hit our palates wonderfully different from the previous course. Each tasty morsel provided a multitude of tastes that blended together splendidly.

Thank you for a perfect holiday date! It was my date’s first time and she loved it.
