The Palm Court at RH San Francisco

“Great atmosphere from start to finish, everything feels intentional and elevated, with a refined, luxury setting that really stands out in SF. Food is consistently strong, and the caviar avocado is a must, rich, balanced, and one of those standout bites you remember long after. The interior design is beautiful and cohesive, with that signature RH aesthetic that makes the space feel more like a curated gallery than a typical restaurant. And the rooftop lounge is the real highlight, open, airy, and relaxed but still polished, perfect for lingering over drinks or dinner with a view. The bay view adds something special to the experience too, calm, expansive, and quietly grounding in a way that makes everything feel slower and more effortless. Overall, it’s a place where the setting, food, and atmosphere come together seamlessly.”

“My family and I came to this restaurant to celebrate a sad event in our lives. And you know, the atmosphere is both sublime, pleasant, and a little antique, conducive to reflection (the statues and the noise of the fountain contribute). If it were not for such a sad moment in my life, I would come back here again. The service is excellent, the waiters are tactful and beautiful, the manager of the hall instantly changed the salad of the lady at the next table at her request, and having caught my sad look, a couple of minutes later came to our table and poured soda into our glasses - that is, everything is kept under control in the hall. Very precise work of the staff. The dishes are served quickly, elegantly. Very tasty avocado with caviar, sandwiches with lobsters. very tender and airy everything. Black caviar of excellent quality. The wine list is excellent. But there is no French vodka, which I needed in small quantities in accordance with my state of mind at that moment - here wine as an elegant drink did not suit me. If you want a fairy tale, romance, peace - this is the place for you, to this beautiful and pompous restaurant.”

“I came here for my birthday lunch and wow—what an unforgettable experience. I ordered the Fried Chicken Sandwich with Sweet Potato Fries, and I’m not exaggerating when I say it was one of the best fried chicken sandwiches I’ve ever had. Perfectly crispy on the outside, juicy and flavorful on the inside, with fresh, high-quality ingredients that made every bite worth savoring. The sweet potato fries? Equally amazing—crispy, warm, and just the right amount of seasoning. Yes, it’s on the pricier side (about $40 for the sandwich and fries), but honestly, you’re paying for more than just the food. The entire space is stunning. The decor is absolutely gorgeous elegant, serene, and stylish without being over the top. After lunch, I explored the rooftop on the fourth floor and was completely blown away. Beautifully designed seating areas, sculpted greenery, and views that make you want to stay all day. Whether you’re celebrating something special or just want to treat yourself, The Palm Court delivers. Worth every penny.”

“Having visited the Napa and Toronto locations, I was excited for my first time at RH San Francisco. The ambiance, as expected, was stunning. What truly stood out was the exceptional service. From the doorman to the manager, everyone was incredibly friendly. Not only was our server attentive, but other staff members greeted us and offered to take photos—a rare display of teamwork in a restaurant, where servers typically focus solely on their own tables. Despite the busy Saturday night, the staff remained outstanding. The food was excellent; I highly recommend the steak. The space is beautiful yet unpretentious, with guests freely exploring the showroom, enjoying drinks, and creating a lively vibe. Unfortunately, the patio was closed by the time we wanted to visit. I look forward to trying the patio and brunch on a future visit. Given its popularity, extending weekend hours would be a great addition. A big thank you to the staff and manager for an unforgettable experience.”

“Not a fan. The building is beautiful, but it's very one note inside. The restaurant is very loud - it's the acoustics from the cavernous interior. The food was mediocre, overpriced, and unoriginal. The server was oversolicitous - honestly, why interrupt guests every 5 minutes to ask if they are enjoying everything? We might be enjoying our uninterrupted conversation... One last hypercritical thing: why have a dress code if no one follows it? The rooftop has a nice view and comfy seats.”
