Classic Waterfront Seafood & Grill A San Francisco landmark within the square, this restaurant specializes in fresh Pacific seafood and premium steaks. The multi-level dining room is designed to maximize its panoramic views, offering guests a direct look at Alcatraz, the Golden Gate Bridge, and the harbor while they dine on regional favorites like Dungeness crab and clam chowder.

Palette Tea House

Modern Dim Sum & Seafood A vibrant and artistic take on traditional Chinese dining, Palette Tea House is renowned for its colorful, handcrafted dim sum and live seafood. The menu blends authentic Cantonese flavors with contemporary presentation, featuring signature items like Iberico pork long bao and charcoal-grilled skewers in a bright, gallery-inspired space.

San Francisco Brewing Co.

Craft Brewery & Social Gastropub This innovative venue functions as a full-scale craft brewery, restaurant, and outdoor beer garden. It offers a lively, communal atmosphere where guests can enjoy small-batch handcrafted beers alongside elevated pub fare. The space is a local favorite for its interactive games, outdoor fire pits, and industrial-chic design.

Honest review

What could be better

  • The hotel must address significant early-morning disruptions by soundproofing units near the communal loading docks and coordinating with the square's vendors to restrict loud glass disposal and garbage collection to more reasonable hours.
  • Management should prioritize replacing worn furniture, such as peeling faux-leather sofas and frayed linens, while ensuring that kitchens are fully stocked with basic essentials like coffee, dish towels, and extra blankets.
  • The property needs to ensure that confirmed room assignments and linked bookings are strictly honored for families, while training front-of-house staff to provide warm, professional service that matches the hotel's luxury price point.
