Good food in a great space sums up Ernest, which has some really unique dishes. The halibut katsu sando with homemade tartar sauce was just awesome. Uni toast! Need a whole loaf of Uni toast! I forgot the picture of the soft serve ice cream too. Ever
Not friendly staff, our waitress working in the bar area
Not friendly staff, our waitress working in the bar area was cold/ talks fast and unwelcoming, could barely catch what she was saying bc she spoke so damn fast. very rushed throughout our meal and no information on to what to expect from the tasting
Had an amazing time celebrating my cousin's bday at Ernest.
We had the $99 tasting menu which was great value bc it was a tremendous amount of food (4 courses) that was delicious and beautifully presented. My partner is dairy free so they surprised him with dairy free versions of specific dishes including his

Amazing service and overall great value for their chef's tasting menu. My partner and I both left feeling full. The only critique I have is that the flavor profiles for some dishes weren't as balanced as I would have liked. Certain dishes w

Vegetarians should stay away! I knew my options were limited by looking at the menu and I was fine with that. Being a vegetarian for 30 years, I'm used to going to a restaurant and only seeing a couple items that I can eat. Imagine my shock wh

The food, service, and ambience was excellent! A lot of the dishes were inspired by the chefs travels to Japan. My favorite dish was the shishito peppers, it was an elevated dish compared to the standard. Cocktails were great too. I would definitely

I wanna start by saying we got the prefixed menu, I believe $140 each? I had booked the spot for a bachelorette dinner and they gave us the more private area without having to ask! We ended up getting damn near everything on the menu and the AMOUNT o

A very solid experience and meal here at Ernest! We had a reservation for 5:30pm on a Saturday and service was great the whole night. We chose the "Let the kitchen cook for you" $99 option as we were a party of 6 and were told to order 2-3
Just on OK experience
this bar has been around for many years, but the last time I went, last week, there was a very rude waitress who made our experience, most just for me but for the whole table, not that pleasant. The bar was pretty full and maybe she was stressed but
Very pleasant place for cocktails
It's a clean, comfortable, friendly place for a drink and they serve food, too. We just had drinks, and enjoyed ourselves immensely.
Great Restaurant
A very good Local Place to Hang out with your friends. Happy Hour is awesome to chill out. Its dog Friendly as they have an outdoor sitting too.. Servers are very nice. But Just advice them as they have only say one during my visit..She did great aft

Harry’s is my favourite neighbourhood ‘watering hole’. Always lively, friendly staff and great selection of drinks - beers, whiskey, bourbons and the wide range of white spirits - and great bar food plus steaks if that’s what excites you (tho

This place shouldn't offer prefix menu, most especially when an ONION RINGS is one of the dishes that chef includes in the prefix so they call Caviar Pre Fix, people who order prefix menu should be given more time to enjoy their dinner. We felt very
Amazing asian+californian fusion food.
Every single dish is interesting and creative but also reminds me of something from my childhood. The ingredients are high quality and fresh. The portions are decent but we still get to order a variety of dishes. Great ambience, the high ceiling an

Service.
Food. Ambiance. Exceptional. Our server Brittany was fantabulous. She genuinely made us smile. She gave us a breakdown of our courses as they came and saw little specks on our table as she cleared off each meal. She's a wonderful human who elevated
My wife took me to dinner at Ernest for my bday.
We had been excited to try and were greeted warmly by a cute note at our table. The flow of dinner seemed slow at first and then almost rushed to turn the table. The food was tasty. We decided against the tasting menu and opted to try all the things
It was good.
They sat us early (great host skills) upstairs in an acute corner so the rectangular table was a bit awkward but doable. The wood grain table color did not complement the lineup of jewel like first dishes... made the caviar look like some crock cou

A very unique dining experience that is well worth your money. We made a reservation for my birthday and chose the $99 set menu item. There were 4 courses with lots of plates during the courses. All the courses were made to be split amongst your part

Amazing meal! Everything we had was really good, although I think the Uni toast, poke and desserts were true stand outs. Service is excellent and our server was super attentive and provided great recommendations. Definitely wanna come back again
just wow.
one of the best dining experiences i've had in all of the bay area. four of us came for the "let the kitchen choose" option for $99. we got a couple of cocktails as well, which were each delicious and unique. the shiso one was the crowd fav
Very cool experience.
Tucked away on a corner of Bryant St in the industrial Mission/SoMa area, this modern michelin-y spot is definitely worth a try! I know what others may say but that $27 uni toast was divine and worth the splurge. Honestly, I slightly regret even ord
I don't take photos of my meals but I was tempted to.
Everything we ate was excellent. At $99 per person, the tasting menu is an amazing value for the huge amount of different food, a mix of Californian, Chinese and Japanese cuisine. My favorites were the Mala spice friend chicken wings and the fried r

Dined here a couple weeks ago and was so impressed by the food. Japanese influence in the flavors were perfect. We did the tasting menu and I'm so glad we did. Every course had something really special. My favorite was how they just live bomb you in
This place is incredible!! I went as a party of four.
We ordered the beef tartare with sushi rice, another appetizer, the fried rice, tonkatsu, and steak all split family style. Ordering 2 apps and 3 entrees for four was enough of food for us, with leftovers! The katsu was so crispy and the fried rice w
Fusion food.
Attentive Service, packed even during the week. Young, energetic ambiance. Enjoyed the salad the most: California Citrus - Stracciatella, Salsa Macha, Chicharron Also ordered: Uni Toast - Jidori Egg Yolk, Brioche Sushi Rice - Ikura, Raw Beef, Toa
Every bite was so full of flavor.
Highly enjoyable experience. Chef's tasting menu is the way to go.

Quality restaurant.
The menu was inspiring and delicious. Our server, Eric, was graceful and timely. The decor was a vibe. One of my favorite restaurants in the city.
Nice atmosphere with some good Happy Hour specials
We stayed at the Queen Anne Hotel and took a walk to Fillmore Street to pick out a place for dinner. I had the Burger sliders and my wife the Chicken Empanada with garlic fries. The food was tasty and had a good neighborhood bar atmosphere. They do H

If you plan to come here, I highly recommend booking a reservation around 3-4 weeks in advance if you want a weekend slot. On the weekday, if you plan to go the week of, you can get a spot at 5:00PM (right at opening) or around 9:00PM. Drinks wise: i
Reservation is so hard to get.
I snagged a 5pm Wednesday Resy for 2. But we were a party of 3. I emailed Ernest and they were able to accommodate us. There is $50 per person cancellation. We got lost looking for the entrance. It's right on corner Florida and Mariposa thru a black

I was a bit skeptical when I was invited to a birthday dinner which was previously a coffee shop, but was pleasantly surprised when I entered the restaurant. They managed to pull of the conversion from coffee shop to restaurant and make a minimalist
Was disappointed by my visit.
The place is not bad, good service, decent food, but not somewhere where we want to spend money again.Oysters and Poke were both very good, favorites of the night. Duck was too salty and poorly paired with some bland lettuce, fried rice bland, and g
Celebrated a very belated birthday w/ my friend here.
Parking is ok if you go early but beware of tents.They offer a tasting menu but we opted to order a la carte. All of the dishes were good except for the pork belly and octopus entree. We were under the impression that this would be a regular dish but

I had the 4 course tasting menu here for my birthday and enjoyed it for the most part. The serving sizes for each course was just right -- I was full but not overly stuffed. For the most part, I enjoyed everything I ate and had a great experience try
This restaurant has become one of my new favorites.
I feel like it lives up to the hype. It's so fresh and modern and it really embodies a San Francisco restaurant. We were very satisfied with our meal from the presentation to all the flavors. The restaurant is modern industrial, well kept. Server was

We had the tasting menu on Sunday.
None of us have been so blown away by a meal at a restaurant in a long time. At $97 it was a bargain. Service was excellent too. Can't say I like the space that well, but the food more than compensated.
Connect with users posting reservations for Ernest San Francisco
AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Ernest San Francisco. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Ernest San Francisco at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Ernest San Francisco page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* FluffyStar64, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* FluffyStar64 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to FluffyStar64 for any questions Peter may have as FluffyStar64 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* FluffyStar64 now uses their connections at Ernest San Francisco to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If FluffyStar64 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, FluffyStar64 receives the $200 reward which is credited to FluffyStar64's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Ernest San Francisco!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
