Fodor's Review:
San Francisco cuisine is the star at Michael Mina's handsome, understated brasserie with clean lines and polished-wood floors. The menu's emphasis is on seasonal regional favorites such as a duet of sturgeon (caviar as well as the smoked fish, served with poached quince and vanilla oil), lobster potpie (containing a huge 2-pound Maine lobster and swimming in rich brandy cream), and steak with seared foie gras and a pinot noir reduction. There are no weak spots in Mina's repertoire. A selection of five flavors of mashed potatoes, such as lobster, curry, or basil, is included with dinner, and you can bet the sourdough bread's the real deal.
