We were very late for our reservation on a busy Saturday night - we called to let them know and they told us to still come and they would fit us in. Despite the crowds, we were seated in 10 minutes and the hostesses were so nice, which is rare in such a great and popular restaurant! The atmosphere is just perfect - cozy, romantic and with such a great energy. The steak tartare and lobster spaghetti were fabulous as was the seabass. We topped it all off with the bananas foster, which was delicious. The whole evening was just perfect and I look forward to going back again! Pros: Food, Cozy Atmosphere, Great Hostesses Cons: Pricey

My husband & I dropped in via the quaint alley for a refreshing beer break during some holiday shopping. We shared the complimentary seasoned bar mix treats and then tried the Oysters - delish! We were only in for about 20 minutes, and it was quite early so people were just arriving for dinner. The room is gorgeous and dimly lit - very romantic. A gem.

The place is pitch black inside. The waiters emergence almost made me choke a couple of times because you can't see him/her until they're right next to you. Strangely, they could see me. The meat dishes are better than the others.

Dinner was nice, the wine great. But as our table of five was finishing dessert and coffee, the manager rudely interrupted us and asked to get us a cab. We were shocked...it was a business dinner and we had spent a lot of money on food and one bottle of wine. Apparently we were taking up precious space. It was a very sour end to an otherwise nice evening. Probably won't go there again. Cons: Manager very rude

Been to Bix many times on business and pleasure. The entrance is along an enchanting cobblestone alley. It's always great. Can be loud if you sit right next to the bar, but everywhere else is quiet enough to carry on a relaxed conversation without yelling. Sometimes a pianist provides nice background music. The wine selection is truly outstanding. Dinner reservations a must. Food is good. Pros: Classy, Wine Selection

This place is full of the rudest staff I have ever run into. The food was decent, but the overall experience ruined our evening out. I will never go here again! Cons: Rude jerks

Had lunch at Bix this afternoon as part of the SF DineAboutTown prix fixe special. This dark little supper-club has quite a few art-deco touches and is quietly tucked away down an alley on Gold street. The appetizer was an eggplant-pepper soup, it was quite delicate with a little pepper bite. Entree was three chicken hash croquettes, very tasty. Dessert was a large creme brulee, quite soft and smooth but the top was a bit burnt. Good food, great decor and the service was solid. A great place to bring a date, will have to check out the beautiful bar next time! Pros: Art-Deco decor, Cute location Cons: Dimly lit
