Description

A subtly illuminated, luxuriously appointed temple to the four Nob Hill robber barons who built the first transcontinental railroad across the United States. The menu is as robustly American as the restaurant's Gilded Age ambiance. The food isn't as ethereal as the stratospheric prices might indicate, however. Cocktail piano sparkles in the intimate hearthside bar, a fine place to contemplate the establishment's many historical artifacts. Standard but comprehensive wine list.

    The Big 4

    By Matthew Stafford | Wed, July 04, 2001

    By its narrowest definition Independence Day celebrates our decolonization from the British Empire, but in a broader, happier sense the Fourth of July is nothing less than one big national birthday party. At a birthday party we contemplate the... More »
