I phoned to make reservations for 6 on a Thursday night and was asked for credit card info. I wasn't entering into a transaction….so, I refused to give them my numbers and said forgeddit. Someone called to confirm the next day and when I told her why I wasn't going to be there, she offered to bend the rules. Bleh, change your policy! San Francisco has too many great restaurants to put up with that crappy practice. We went to Chapeau! and my credit card had a lovely time!
10/16 We got reservations for Saturday for 6:30
no question pertaining to credit card number was asked
but I probably could be heard saying "don't give them
any Credit Card numbers!"
Asking for a credit card for a party of six is hardly bad service. It's just a healthy reminder to call if you've changed your mind.
Just happened to be in the city and had some time to kill and remembered the name "Medjool" so we went for happy hour. I absolutely loved it. We ordered 4 items from the happy hour menu, 5 bucks a piece, and some wine and a beer. Everything was full of flavor, the place itself was weirdly comfortable and inviting. Spacious and cozy at the same time. I'm definitely coming back for dinner and I hope they don't ask for my credit card number for the reservation, as that would make their stock go down somehow.
