Harris' is really good 8/11/2004

I just had a great dinner at Harris'. I am not usually a big steakhouse fan but Harris' may be my new favorite place. I ordered a New York steak that was cooked exactly as ordered, my friend ad the prime rib and it was quite tasty. They also make very good martinis. The wine list is really large but the wine buyer from the restaurant came by and helped us to pick a bottle that we really enjoyed. We also had some good appetizers, smoked salmon and oysters. The restaurant as large and comfy booths. I could have stayed all night. It is a little expensive but worth the splurge now and then. Pros: great steaks, good service, comfortable more

Good for special occasion 6/23/2004

We had the Harris' steak and prime rib. Both were good though the prime rib at House is better (of course). We also had oysters which were ok but were a little fishy. Service was fine though I saw one waiter rub something off a glass before bringing it to a customer. We would go again but only for special occasions and cause it is pricey. We were in the smaller room so it was more romantic and quieter than the main room. They definitely need more valets. We went there on a Saturday night and there were only 2 valets. There were several of us waiting for our cars in the cold. Plus when they brought our car around, there was some traffic congestion and the valet "parked" our car in the street and we had to rush to get in as our car was blocking traffic. Pros: Steak, Atmosphere more

Fabulous! 4/4/2004

Finally, a great steak in San Francisco. Ive eaten in most of the steakhouses in the city, and have to say I've been disappointed until I finally found Harris'. Nice plush booths- rather than small cramped tables. Attentive staff, excellent service. It is on the pricey side, but with all the perks, well worth it. The food and service is consistently excellent, Ive been back three times. Great place for a special occasion or for business dinners. Pros: Excellent steak, great service, ambiance more

Best in S.F. 3/20/2004

The best atmosphere for a Steakhouse. My top 3 places in San Francisco. Sometimes the food isn't up to par and usually the bussers are better than the waitstaff but what decor! The Bartenders make up for all the failures in the dining room. Pros: Atmosphere, Service Cons: inconcisity, service more

Overrated, Snotty Service 3/7/2004

Go here if you don't know steak, and don't mind snotty waitpersons, ignorant bartenders, and a whopper of a check. Harris SF is a rip-off for those who dine out only for show, or maybe to impress a business client from the east coast on the company expense account. If you know your steak, try the Buckeye in Marin instead. Pros: Ambience Cons: , WAY overpriced, Lousy Bar more

Okay 4/14/2003

The service was pretty good and the dining room - especially the library room, was awesome. They have a nice bar. Unfortunately, the steaks just didn't meet our expectations. I am not a fan of chain restaurants (I don't like Ruth Chris) but I had a much better "steak" experience at Morton's. Pros: service, dining room more
