We have been here twice with friends and really like it. The food is excellent and the service good. Delivery of the food seemed a bit slow last night, but that was a kitchen problem not the wait staff. If you like a bit of space around you, this is the place to go, too. A very open plan There was a saxophone playing last night, which became a bit loud. But it was a very good saxophonist!!!

6 for a fabulous dinner & cocktails followed by a wonderful sold out sax /Grover Washington tribute - unbelievable performance!! Seats were best in the house - both that was cozy comfortable in front & center of the stage! Could not ask for more ore or better! We’ll definitely be back for this group- Grover Washington Tribute is the bomb!!! Thank you Trina from Yoshi’s ❤️

Incredible casual/elegant ambiance on the patio under the twinkle lights. Street side patio evoke Parisian cafe culture on this fairly quite side street just off Shattuck (next to the library). Food was delicious and top notch, as well as fairly priced. Got a wine recommendation from the owner and it was outstanding. We had a wonderful bite to each and drink before the theater. Recommended.

Bix is like stepping into a film noir set! Outstanding service, food and ambience. Details like the martini glasses on ice, waiting for an order. Hot rolls with dinner. Attentive service. It's all so fantastic and a special treat. Great to see San Francisco enjoying Bix!
