We enjoyed brunch here. The biscuits and gravy were delicious, super rich. But both the deviled eggs and the “baked eggs a la vodka” were overwhelmed by the generous use of chili powder. Didn’t expect that. The French toast sticks were however absolutely genius.
We didn't have the best experience our first visit but the waitstaff was kind, the drinks were good and the food was ok. It's super close to our house so and has good accessibility for disabled folks so we thought we'd try again. I have a very good friend who is wheelchair dependent who was coming up for a visit, since it was her birthday I made reservations about 2 month in advance as we had some pretty standard but extra needs to accommodate her. I made these needs known in my reservation. So today rolls around and it turns out they are having a drag brunch. Fabulous! The show was outside and we had requested indoor seating in our reservation notes. From the point we checked in we were treated like an inconvenience. We arrived at 1025 for our 1030 reservation and were told to wait. No problem- then they began seating everyone else who had showed up after us until I asked to be seated again. 5 of us were seated at a 4 top despite the indoor area being entirely empty. When we asked if our friend could park her motorized chair and have a regular chair, not one person in this place attempted to help her find a place to park the wheelchair. I didn't say anything at the time because I thought that perhaps they would have other reservations coming in and we would not want to infringe upon space that was promised to somebody else. As it turned out though not one single other party came to join the inside dining area. The server was clearly irritated by our presence and cold to us. It seems like perhaps we booked this reservation before they planned the drag brunch and no one bothered to read the notes on our reservation. We became some kind of inconvenience to them as they realized that they were going to have to serve us in the dining room. Honestly somebody probably should've read the notes on the reservation before hand and given us a call. After seeing that this is just one more place in San Francisco that has a bad attitude toward the disabled, we couldn't return.
The Sunday brunch is unique and delicious. Cocktails are well thought out and consistently made with fresh juices. Love this place.
Great service, comfort food, great drinks, friendly staff.
Super friendly and helpful staff. Great bartending program as we had a nicely balanced Manhattan at a reasonable price. Wait staff attentive and friendly. Overall a great place to get a low key dinner. We'll be back.
Service was not quite as attentive as it normally is at Mr. Digby's. We were sitting outside, as were many others, but after promptly taking our order, the service began to languish. It took a surprisingly long time to receive our starters. Our server never checked to see if we'd been received our starters. After we'd waited about 15 minutes for (we ordered a salad and a soup), we asked our server as she was passing us to check on our order. She was very apologetic about the delay, and returned in a moment to assure us we'd soon receive those. Once served, we each enjoyed our first courses (the kale salad and the broccoli soup). They were each well prepared,; the soup was outstanding. Our mains - pork schintzel and beef Wellington - arrived shortly after we finished our first courses. The schnitzel had cheese in it, a slightly different preparation than we are used to and, TBH, one we didn't care for. The meat, however, was flavorful and to the chef's credit, the schnitzel's crust was crisp. The vegetables were good as well. We do miss the pork chop, though (it's why we chose the restaurant for dinner), and hope it will return to Mr. Digby's menu soon. The beef Wellington was, for a "neighborhood" restaurant (vs. a fine dining or steakhouse restaurant) was quite good; its puff pastry shell was perfect. My only disappointment with this dish was that it was not served with a green vegetable, which would have provided a nice counterbalance to the beef's richness. Our server never checked on us after we had received our mains, though. We've never really felt ignored when at Mr. Digby's as we did during this visit. Again, we had to seek our server to request our check. When we did, she was very possessive about the payment device. Rather than placing it on the table, as I've previously experienced, she clutched it as if to keep me from running off with the device.
Great brunch classics with flavorful twists, and excellent service. Price isn't cheap but is fare for the quality.
Great food and cocktails! We liked everything we ordered and loved the vibe.
The cocktails are amazing! The food is good but didn’t blow me away. The service was good but not great. We sat outside which was a little noisy. There’s a bus stop right by there which led to some vehicle noise.
Had a friend in town. It’s the perfect blend of swanky cocktail bar and restaurant, while still being relatively casual. A go-to.
