Such an enjoyable experience at one of the newest Michelin starred restaurants in SF… Such interesting drinks, food and flavors, and pairings (we did the sake pairings and we had so many different styles) even for this jaded trio who’s tried everything.

Wow. We were very much looking forward to coming back here once they opened. Definitely the most expensive meal I’ve ever prepaid (tasting menu plus wine pairings of course) though.

When first arriving at the restaurant (on Mission between 7th and 6th) from my Lyft, I was greeted by some homeless folks and the air was redolent of urine, but once…

Atelier Crenn
Easily one of the best meal/experiences we’ve had, in our top 3 for sure. Very seafood/localvore menu. Preparation, flavors, wine pairings were sublime. Definitely earned all of its Michelin stars. We’d happily go back again.

We don’t need much of an excuse to try out another Michelin started restaurant although I did finally take my CISSP certification test (yes I passed).
