Cheryl (bartender) was outstanding. Engaging, helped us select the right food, cocktails, and delivered a great experience. As I mentioned to Eduardo (bar manager), please have blue cheese olives available for the best Martinis. That was a miss.

Was really excited to try the wayfare finally; however we were very disappointed with the food overall. We ordered the 24oz ribeye for two which was over salted and contained way too much fat and gristle. For a high end restaurant it was extremely disappointing for the below average food quality.
I knew we were off to a rough evening when our server Matt removed our forks after taking our order. Now why would you do that?! Service was horrendous. Server Matt had issues keeping himself organized and ensuring all of his tables had what they needed. Even the food runner was frustrated at him. Every course he dropped at tables,there was no flatware present. He said, “He’s new”. He so looked frustrated. Poor guy. Management looked stressed and mainly stood around with stoic looks on their face. Not a warm friendly vibe. Very pretentious. We overheard a conversation by management saying- “The kitchen is F’ing up, Servers are F’ing up. This whole place is F’ed up”. This really made you feel good to be dining here- NOT. We waited to order (15) min, waited for dessert menus (25 min) and waited for our check (25) min. 2.5 hours for a dinner for 2 is too long. Matt even had the audacity to make an excuse to us on why our check took so long. “Oh I printed your check and forgot about it”. No Sh$! He even had the nerve to say, please ask for Matt on your next visit. How about let’s NOT ask for Matt? Although one of our SF favorite with the best fried chicken and donuts, we will not be returning.
Amazing like always. When we’re in town we make a point of eating at Wayfarer Tavern.
Mothers Day. The staff was extremely busy as every seat was filled. We , we’re Sat immediately, drink and appetizers followed quickly. Our reservation was at 3:15. Right between Mother’s Day brunch and dinner turnover. Our entrees took quite a while because of the kitchen turnover. It was fine as we were talking. After we finished our meal our kind waitress told us our entrees had been taken care of because of the wait. I thought that an extremely kind gesture, especially because we did not ask for this. Even thought the entrees were late the food was delicious and service was excellent as always. Wayfare is still one of the best restaurants in town.
After three previous dinings at Wayfare Tavern on the second floor, we were able to snag seating for two at the counter on the first floor where much of the ordered food is prepared and dispatched, and one then see the activity going on first hand. As usual, the food was outstanding, the service from James S. equally outstanding and friendly, and the visit from the Manager a real treat given that my wife has been in the white table restaurant business for a number of years.
Fried chicken that is real written best in the city was real disappointing, dry and lacked flavor.
The staff’s service has been exceptional. The fried chicken i ordered was missing one piece, however, it was still delicious. The prime rib for 2 was a little bit salty but the sauce really complimented it. It is still on the expensive side and not worth the 150 dollars. The 40 dollar add on lobster was really fresh but nothing too exciting. The steak tartar was surprisingly well prepared and it was above and beyond expectations. The food was a 4.5/5
Great lunch date place. Service was a little slow but we love the food.
went for brunch and had a fantastic time! great ambiance, beautiful of restaurant just beautiful. Friendly staff. Pop-overs to die for, burger was amazing, salmon cooked just right, eggs benedict delicious. Can't wait to go back!
