I made a resi for 6 people for a birthday dinner outside. We were assigned the area by the fireplace which was not suitable for dinner so worth calling them to reconfirm you'll be getting an actual table. The waiter was super nice and the food was good. I like their patio and there was a cute cat who visited from the roof which was such a delight. They charge $10 pp when you make a reservation which was meant to be applied to the bill total but it wasn't. It was in a different system and I had to ask about it which is not something anyone wants to deal with at a group dinner.

We sat in the back patio. It was windy and cold but the outdoor heaters did help a bit. The food was ok. Nothing special. Drinks were expensive. Service was good however.

we went there because we heard it was dog friendly, and they certainly were. Gave us a separate area to sit, gave our dog a bowl of water and some treats and were really good to him and us. WE had the steak frites. Best steak I've had for a while, and servers were super friendly.

We needed a restaurant that was dog friendly and decided to try The Patio. The carpaccio and short ribs were great. They had a good variety of cocktails on the menu. The mezcal cocktail was very good and refreshing. We dined on the inviting outdoor patio. All of the staff were very nice and friendly. They have a neighborhood cat who hangs out and doesn’t bother the diners or the dogs. We would definitely go again on another trip to San Francisco.
