Great high-end k bbq/ steakhouse SF needed. Quality of meat is uncompromising. Creative, and well-accompanying kitchen dishes should not be overlooked. The Chef is very handsome as well.

The staff took my food allergy very seriously. They knew on the menu what was not Gluten Free, rather than having to go ask the chief. Other than pasta, almost everything was already cooked GF, which was wonderful. Great atmosphere and service as well.
