Came here for my wife's birthday after hearing tons of amazing things about it. I have to say, it did not disappoint. Ambiance: We were told that it was supposed to give a 1960s dinner party vibe mixed the chef's experience in the scouts.

Lazy Bear is truly one of a kind! The whole dining experience feels special from start to finish. My favorite part of the menu was the tasting menu's signature grilled squab perfectly cooked, tender, and full of flavor. Every course is creative
A truly great dining experience
Dining at Lazy Bear was one of the best culinary experiences we’ve had in San Francisco. From start to finish, the pacing was perfect as the courses flowed naturally without ever feeling rushed or drawn out, which made the evening feel effortless a

Honestly, our experience at Lazy Bear was a crushing disappointment, and this is not something I say lightly for such a fine establishment. I first went to Lazy Bear when it was a popup 11 years ago, before it became a restaurant, and I absolutely lo

We went here to celebrate our engagement and were really excited to try another Michelin star restaurant. Let's keep the review simple and straightforward. Food was just ok, nothing really stood out. Presentation was nice. The dessert section
Man this place is special.
Every course wowed me and the staff had beautiful stories to pair with each one. The notebook and pencil is a nice touch and I was ecstatic the next morning when I remembered I had banana bread and cold brew from their goodie bag at the end of the ni
Amazing experience, beautiful ambience and delicious food.
Each dish told a story and the staff was extremely knowledgeable about the food that was being served. Upstairs seating felt romantic and intimate and the table overlooking the restaurant from above was beautiful. The experience felt interactive, as

We went to my boyfriend's favorite restaurant and after going, I can definitely see why! We did the wine pairing alongside the tasting menu, and it felt well-curated without being showy. Out of all the dishes what really stood out for us was th
Had a pretty great time at Lazy Bear.
Each course was well described by the staff and the wait between each course wasn't too long. To start, they brought out basically a sort of tea, described as and infusion of Wild Blossoms, Herbs and Conifers, Honey. The presentation was really

Lazy Bear was on my list for a while, so when I heard that they were finally reopening after the remodel and in celebration of their 10th Anniversary, I made sure to stay up to date with when the reservation release would be! I managed to get reserva
Little confused on this one to be honest.
Food was good but service seemed like the staff was new and trying really hard to figure it out. A lot of pine flavors and I mean A LOT OF PINE especially with the dessert courses. Will never give a restaurant a bad review because I understand how
Absolute favorite restaurant in SF.
You'll leave full and happy. The drink pairing is phenomenal and the dishes are creative and yummy! I've been 4 times and can't wait to come back after their remodel. Thanks Lazy Bear and staff! Always a 10/10 experience.
I've been meaning to write this for a couple years.
I've been to LB three times for private dinners, and while the food was obviously incredible, I was super unimpressed with David Barzelay's attitude. We secured a New Year's Eve dinner reservation (my date spent a small fortune for this) and David ad

We come back the second time and sure lazy bear did not disappoint us. Every dish was meticulously executed with presentation, taste, and aroma. The staff was very attentive to make sure you're taken care of. We were taken upstairs to enjoy the desse
Exceptional food, great service, lovely place.
Knocking down 2 stars because: - dishonest fee tack on. Automatic tips (for small groups at least) should be part of the advertised price. Fees in SF are wildly out of control. - very expensive meal as-is. It was a nice experience, but you can get n
The food here is absolutely amazing.
Four stars because reservations are hard to get and the meals are very expensive. But it is truly a special event to go to this restaurant

Why is this place getting good reviews??? Mediocre service, they cannot coordinate timing of food, can't keep the choices of drinks straight for the members of the party. They kept on making mistakes serving them. Very disorganized, inattentive wait
This is a must-try place.
Incredible food/presentation, great ambiance and an experience never to be forgotten. Service was top notch and Chef David himself came over and spoke with us about a few dishes. I'd visit just for his vibes - super happy, kind, down to earth &

I made reservations for Lazy Bear immediately when they opened up every month on the 15th and I highly recommend you to do so if you intend on dining here. The reservations fill up fast and it's first come first serve, and for 2 good reasons also: pr

I was so excited to visit this restaurant because of its Michelin status. Unfortunately, it was a less than enjoyable experience to Lazy Bear. The restaurant was freezing when we got there and we were seated right under a giant fan. When we inquired

Such a great overall experience! I've waited to come here for 2 years and finally gotten a reservation on a Tuesday night! The staff here are all so sweet and professional from the start to the end. I was so impressed with the first course and mos
We were able to dine at Lazy Bear on our last trip to SF.
Overall, it was a very pleasant experience but I wish there was more of a wow factor with the food. Overall a 4.5 stars experience for me... not quite 5 stars. Dont get me wrong, the food was good. But for the price & it being a 2 michelin star
- our tea got spilled.
Twice. - didn't get our wine pairing for the first two courses and the waiter offered to "catch us up". That is not how pairings work. - half of the staff looked like they were on drugs. - food was ok, and it was nice to see the kitchen
Food was excellent as expected.
Well executed with really creative flavors and combinations. Deducting 1 star for service and the drink program. Service downstairs was excellent. Service upstairs with the dessert is best described as snarky and rushed. I really did not apprecia
Awesome experience and definitely worth the money.
We did the Valentine's menu and I got the wine pairing and my wife got the non-alcoholic pairing. The food was all very tasty and interesting with a wide range of flavors and (mostly local) ingredients. There were quite a few throwback/comfort food t
Absolutely outstanding restaurant.
My husband and I are foodies and have been to many highly rated restaurants and those with Michelin stars and this is the best by far. Every dish well thought out and composed and beautiful. The service was stellar as well. We will definitely be back
Amazing presentation, Kat and Paul were great and
Amazing presentation, Kat and Paul were great and definitely gave amazing service. Food was delicious, and having a dessert pairing was a fun experience. Can't wait to go back

This place is communal but came with large group so we took up most of the table. We started off with the foraged tea made of herbs and plants that was collected around San Francisco! It was a cool concept and the taste definitely very interesting -

My partner and I went to Lazy Bear for our second year anniversary. The moment we came in, we were greeted by the host. She promptly took us to our seats, which was right next to the kitchen. She also brought a stool to put my purse on, which I thou
Not what they were
Third, and last, visit. They are just coasting with little passion or innovation. Servers rushed with scripted descriptions and limited interactions. Flat champagne, replaced on request. Mediocre pairings especially reserve. Den dessert overloaded wi
Amazing and delightful splurge! Get reservations in advance!
One of the best meals of my life. The food is amazing and delightful! It's such a fun experience and every bite was delectable. The chef came out and explained every dish so you know exactly what you're eating and waht makes it special. Can't wa
An amazing experience, worth every penny
Lazy Bear nailed it from the moment you step inside. The food and presentation was phenomenal, as was the service and overall experience. So good I'm going back with family this month :)
Great food, great ambience and the price is right.
Have been here a few times and still amazing. Drinks were good and service was outstanding. Will be back again !!
Unlike some other Michelin star restaurants, Lazy Bear
Unlike some other Michelin star restaurants, Lazy Bear feels intimate and unpretentious. It's clear they put a lot of thought into the ambiance and my friend and I loved the experience. Our favorites were the whipped scrambled eggs and california ric

Fiance brought me for my birthday and it was an amazing surprise. Ever since COVID, it seems like they've changed up the seating arrangement to be a bit more private than it used to be. I personally prefer this as it's more intimate and better for ce
The service was incredibly efficient, very well run place.
The menu we had was fairly fish and seafood focused but no complaints, the salmon was incredible and melted in your mouth. The dessert experience upstairs with the pairings was also very unique.
One of the most delicious and interesting dining
One of the most delicious and interesting dining experiences I've ever had. Everything was delicious in its on own way. Some of my favorites were the strawberry soda, the bread and butter, and the wagyu. My group also really enjoyed the tartare and p
A great food and service.
However, I was disappointed that they didn't do anything for our bday party. They asked multiple times if it was for a bday party but they didn't do anything. Next time going somewhere else for our celebration.
Lazy bear has done it again.
Went years ago and they have def changed it up. It's def in line with the more "fine dining" experience but I did miss their OG way of Dining last time. The parties were separated, not a communal setting like last time. Def more intimate se
OMG the entire course was amazing.
I would def wanna come back for that california rice, winter roots, and pork chop. Service is amazing too and they make sure you learn where the ingredients are coming from. I do think the wine pairing can be a bit improved as it didn't really elevat

We had a blast during our dinner reservation, service was impeccable and food was top notch. It really was worth the $250/per person. They surprised us with a BTS tour of the kitchen and ended with a custom cocktail. Thank you for the best date night

Truly outstanding experience! The food was delicious, the service was warm and friendly, but what stood out to me the most was that the food was unique. It definitely pushed the boundaries of what I am used to. It was really awesome to see my 13-year
7 months late in writing this review.
It was a very special day in our household. A very special day calls for a very special date. I thought dinner was going to be at Alexander's, but little did I know that my husband planned a surprise dinner at Lazy Bear, a place I've been talking abo

An amazing dining experience, fantastic food and wine, with a beautiful team
I consider it a priviliege to have had a private dining event at Lazy Bear. From the moment we sat down at the communal table, with the open kitchen next to us, and had the introduction of the story of the restaurant, we knew we in for an amazing jou

Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience

Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Lazy Bear San Francisco at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Lazy Bear San Francisco page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* DistinguishedTree58, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* DistinguishedTree58 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to DistinguishedTree58 for any questions Peter may have as DistinguishedTree58 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* DistinguishedTree58 now uses their connections at Lazy Bear San Francisco to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If DistinguishedTree58 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, DistinguishedTree58 receives the $200 reward which is credited to DistinguishedTree58's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Lazy Bear San Francisco!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
