Rise Over Run - San Francisco

We loved Rise and Run! The mezcal cocktail I tried was so well-balanced and unique, plus all of the shareable bites were very enjoyable. Service was great too. Excited to come back!

The view is good, but that’s about it. I hated my food, my boyfriend though liked his meal. The DJ was bad and way too loud- they were basically kids yelling into a mic.

We were there for new years’ eve. Ambience, service and drinks are good. The food was special NY eve menu. It was a disappointment. The main course was served in paper basket like a fast food. Reminded me of KFC take out. The sauces were in take out containers as well. Very very disappointing. They could have just served it in real plates. The pre fix menu was highly overpriced when compared with ala cart menu that was an option also. Since ala crate did not have any good vegetarian selection, we ended up paying for overpriced pre fix menu, as it had to be same menu for everyone on table. Not sure why!

Ambiance is great especially if you want views of the SF skyline. The staff were nice however the service was painfully slow and some of the servers were not familiar with the menu. We went of NYE pre fixe menu and there were only 2 options for mains and we opted for the bossam with 3 diff fillings. My family and I expected a rather decently sized amount of fillings and sauces with a few baos for each person. What came was literally a slice of each type of meet person and only 3 baos to share amongst 3 people. I was down right flabbergasted. So it seems like what we paid for was just 1 bao per person and 3 slice of meats/ mushroom. I had never expected this from an Asian inspired menu and never experienced this little of food even from the Michelin starred restaurants. My family did not have a great meal to end the night and ring in the new year unfortunately.

Great cocktails and decent appetizers. the food is definitely expensive, $10 for fries that weren’t a huge order at all and $18 for about 4oz of octopus but that’s expected. i would definitely go back for the drinks and views!
