Americano, San Francisco, California, American Restaurant Details

Food:

Elegant dining room. Delicious, well-spiced house-ground burger. Crispy brussel sprouts & artichoke hearts were amazing.

Food:

This place is okay. Epic Roasthouse, across the street, has better drinks and food and I would recommend that place instead of Americano.

Most people who come to Americano on Friday afternoons are Googlers as the Google office is above the restaurant. The happy hour deals are okay but the drinks are not good. The views are also iffy - it just depends.

Epic Roasthouse has better views and tends to be warmer (if you sit outside).

Food:

It's been awhile since I've been here. Good for happy hour esp on the big patio if it's sunny. Crowd can get a bit douchy at times. Forgot how yummy the bar bites are: chile lime cashews with a hint of smoked paprika, roasted Brussel sprouts with aioli sauce is the bomb, and a calamari and fava bean dish in a tomato sauce.

Food:

The outdoor patio is a great happy hour venue for a good-size group. Make sure to get there a bit earlier though if you want to all sit down. Brussel sprouts were fried to crisp and the pizza was pretty good too. Go here on a nice day so you can sit outside, enjoy the view, and people watch.

Food:

Went here for happy hour. Amazing patio and a lot of pretty people. The service, however was so slow and the staff so unpleasant that I'l never come back. Evidently this is a well known fact. Sad, cause it really is a great outdoor spot.

Food:

Right on the Embarcadero with a "spectacular view" of the Bay Bridge, this "upscale" farm-to-table Italian inside the Hotel Vitale earns kudos for "creative", "consistent" dishes served by a staff that displays "exactly the right amount of charm"; look for a "vibrant happy-hour scene" when "well-dressed" law, financial and consulting types mingle on the "lovely" heated patio.
