Lyrics Born: "All the ingredients are delicious, fresh, seasonal, mostly organic, and locally sourced."
Scott: "One thing GC can brag about: it serves Blue Bottle Coffee."
Emily: "Again, I was disappointed the eggs were hard poached as I much prefer a soft poach—so I would definitely specify which you desire if you order this dish and the polenta dish."
Allison: "We started with the Dungeness crab deviled eggs with chipotle aioli; probably some of the best deviled eggs around."
Eric: "Beautiful Location, cool atmosphere with high quality ingredients served with imaginative Latin flair."
Herman: "I loved the vibe and location of Bocanova. It’s like you are having dinner in a massive loft."
Mark: "Consider ordering your first dish with just 1-2, then taste it and place your other orders based on that experience."
Meyeon: "The food is traditional Lao cuisine with familiar Thai food options prepared by a friendly Lao family."
Beth: "Another recommended dish was the spicy wings. They arrived “three bears style”– not too hot, not too bland, just right."
Mac: "And dessert — their caramel pudding is justly famous: a white dish filled with velvety caramel and topped with sea salt crystals."
Kristine: "The Burger ($16), which was grass-fed and house ground, was juicy and had that charcoal, backyard barbecue splendor."
Brad: "'Carter Beats the Devils' is the Flora version of the margarita. The combination of Tequila, Mescal and the chili made for a smooth drink with a bit of a kick."
Andrea: "The meatloaf was delicious — crunchy on the outside and moist on the inside and covered in a light, ham gravy."
Raj: "The cocktails are a must. Hand crafted and creative. We tried the Hot for Teacher (tequila based) and Don’t Stop Believing (gin based)."
Thuy: "One of my favorite things about this restaurant is the cozy feel."
Bill: "addictive happy hours in the bar offer stellar sunsets and feature some of the best British fish and chips as well as one of the best American hamburgers in the Bay Area!"
Michael: "Most people seem to be there for the views as the food is clearly secondary."
Taylor: "The food is standard but absolutely can’t compare to some of the better Italian restaurants in San Francisco or the East Bay."
Andrew: "The Beef Bone Marrow is just melt-in-your mouth goodness…"
Lee: "The music was loud but did not seem to interfere when we first sat down; however, as the evening progressed, it became more difficult to converse."
Michael: "The calamari was “a tad bland,” but I liked the cornmeal crust and cost. The carpaccio was outstanding."
Nicolette: "My favorite is the unbelievably delicious mushroom soup."
Eric: "it did not stand out in anyway with the exception of the gelato."
Roger: "It was surprisingly good for café fare. I had the chicken panini, which was very tasty."
