    Our party of 8 had a great time this Thanksgiving. We had a 4pm reservation and were seated a bit early. Our server Danielle was superb, attentive, upbeat , and patient. The food was great, and we ordered across the menu including the featured turkey. In total, a very satisfying experience.

    Trestle is an exceptional dining experience, not just for the food but also for the incredible service! For $45, you get a beautifully curated 3-course meal, and we added the $12 supplement—worth every penny. We started with the persimmon toast with pâté and the butternut squash soup with Brussels sprouts and pomegranate seeds. Both dishes were hearty, flavorful, and a perfect way to kick off the meal. The clam pasta supplement was outstanding—rich, buttery, and zesty. Definitely a highlight! For entrees, we had the cod with celery root and the duck confit with blood orange. Both were perfectly cooked, with incredible attention to detail in flavor pairing. Dessert wasn’t my favorite, but that’s only because I was so full by the end! On top of the amazing food, the service was flawless. Everyone who served us was so friendly and pleasant, making the whole experience feel warm and welcoming. We also learned that the menu changes weekly to highlight seasonal ingredients, which makes me even more excited to return. Trestle is a must-visit for delicious food and fantastic service—highly recommend!

    My son and I had a great experience Saturday the 22nd. They have nice heat lamps outside. The view is amazing, our server was so fun gracious responsive. His name is Samuel. The view was stunning. We could have a nice meal and enjoy the view of San Francisco. Beautiful clear night. We were plenty warm and the margaritas were incredible. ! I highly recommend, sitting outside when it was a bit colder spectacular. A lot of the tables inside the restaurant are along the windows with a nice view. 50% of the inside, seeing all along the windows with the Waterview.
