We ordered two appetizers, dinner roles and crab/artichoke dip. The roles came out first, but not quickly. The dip came out with our entrees. It took nearly 40 minutes to get the dip. We asked a couple of times and were told it’s coming soon, then, when delivered I was told the dip “takes a long time to make”. Staff were cordial. Main courses ok. Good wines. Loved the decorations and seating setup. Overall, a middle of the road experience.

The customer service was great as soon as you walked in. The host Andrea was wonderful. She was also our server. We tried to make reservations for the steakhouse, and they were booked, but she let us know that we could go down and have dinner at the bar. So when it was time to order she gave us suggestions and we went for them, and it was great. I can't wait to go back, because everything was great. I love being places where they enjoy what they do, and the staff there were amazing.

Festively decorated and good service. Our whole party agreed that food tasted like airline food. And it was very expensive. I would only recommend for one festive drink.

Great brunch spot and wished I had been to The Vault Garden sooner! This hidden gem is located the San Francisco Financial District. My daughter treated me here for my birthday and despite the rainy weather, The Vault Garden provided a warm and welcoming ambiance, sprinkled in with beautiful holiday decor. We feasted on multiple shareable bites: crab artichoke dip, fresh baked pull-apart rolls and butter, roasted brussel sprouts, and mac and cheese. Because it was December, we were able to enjoy holiday-themed beverages as well. The service was amazing here and I will definitely be back to try more items on the menu.
