- LLatriceSan Francisco Bay Area •1 review5.0Dined 7 days agoOverall great experience, and I would definitely go back! I was initially a little hesitant because communication leading up to our reservation wasn’t the best, and I had some trouble getting confirmation. However, once we arrived, they had our reservation ready and seated us right away, which was a great start. Our server, Evie was phenomenal! Super friendly, attentive, and did an excellent job keeping the bottomless drinks flowing. The food was pretty good overall. I did notice that each additional round of food took a little longer to come out, but it didn’t take away from the overall experience. All in all, we had a really good time. Great service, good food, and a fun atmosphere. I’d definitely return!More infoRewind$$$$• American• Dupont Circle•4
