The food here is excellent. I recommend the ahi tuna starter. The wild mushroom bisque they offered before the meal and the pastry tray they offered after the meal were excellent too. I ate at One Market on the same trip and while the food there was very good, Gary Danko was much better. I think it deserves more than one Michelin star.
Pros: Excellent food

i've been going to hairplay since i was in high school. even when i went to santa barbara for college i still made regular trips back every six weeks to see my stylist. a few years ago she moved out of state and i've been floating around from salon to salon aimlessly ever since. after moving back into the neighborhood i decided to give hairplay another try. and i'm so happy i did. i saw ashley and she created the perfect golden blonde highlights that i was looking for. as i was paying for my service i complimented the woman in front of me on her gorgeous long thick hair. she said her stylist was damian sargent and to my surprise she said they we're extensions. i could not believe it, they looked so natural. so being the impulsive shopper that i am, i immediately set up an appointment with damian to get my own set. at the consultation he set my mind at ease and now a week later, i am a brand new person! with gorgeous color and fabulous extensions that look so natural i couldn't be happier. damian even called the next day to check in on me and my new hair. so sweet. i've never gotten so many compliments (by girls and guys) in my life. and since the extensions last for four months the price is totally worth it. thank you hairplay! thank you ashley! thank you damian!
Pros: relaxed atmosphere with talented sylists and great customer service
Cons: parking

I am a hairstylists worst nightmare. I am a blonde and very very fussy. I have been going to see Katie now for about a year and she has changed my brassy locks into healthy beautiful shiny hair. She tells me exactly how it is and I have great respect for her opinion and expertise. If you are struggling to find a colorist...I highly recommend you go see Katie at Posh salon!!! Might i add-She also works early morning and late nights.

I have incredibly difficult hair, and it's been butchered by even very competent stylists. But then I met Marty at Hair Play.
I am a very poor grad student, but save my pennies to spend a few hours in Marty's chair. My hair looks rockstar fabulous for weeks and months on end, and evokes tons of compliments. And even though my hair takes a long time to color and cut to get right, he is so dedicated to his art that rather than rush me through, he'll stay even well after closing time to do it right.
And ladies with frustrating curly hair - he specializes in it! All the stylists there rock, but I will only ever go to Marty.
Downside? Hair Play is a bit pricey, but not moreso than other good salons in the city, and it's so totally worth it. You won't be disappointed!

GD is, hands down, the best haute cuisine restaurant in Northern CA. (And yes, I've been to all of them.) The staff is fabulous, professional, knowledgeable and totally down to earth - not snooty at all - and seem genuinely happy to be part of your dining experience. The food is to die for, especially the fois gras (sorry if you're anti, but it's amazing), lobster anything, and the duck. You'll also notice that you and your guest(s) can have conversations at a normal speaking level, which is sometimes unusual for a 5-star restaurant (where you usually feel like you're talking in a library). In true SF color, the patrons that come to GD are welcomed from all different walks of life - wearing everything from suits down to jeans, older folks to 20-somethings - and we're all brought together in our mutual love and appreciation for impeccably tasting and prepared food. You MUST have the cheese course; the waitstaff is super knowledgeable about each cheese and they are eager to share their knowledge with you. The sommelier is genuine and even complimented us with a wine selection that was lower priced on the list, saying it was a great choice and one he often recommends; there was no looking down on us for choosing a lower priced wine and we really appreciated that! I'd say this is truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience, but actually, you'll want to go again and again. (And you know, you actually could, because GD is a great value for what you get, unlike such places that will insult you, like Michael Mina and The French Laundry.)

Some say they left their heart in San Francisco - well that is half true for me as I left my stylist there and miss his wicked skills, charm, and professional attitude. I have NEVER had a bad cut or color and wish I could have taken some of this magic to go. This salon is top notch!! Now please open a Portland location :) You people rock and I miss you!!

Pros: Friendly staff that knows what I like!

Pros: Great on a hot summer night.
