Yes, it's great and the room is beautiful. Regardless of what you order I'm sure you'll have a great meal. Enjoy!

Anyone been to Benu in SFO? Is it worth the $$$$?

I've been there and see no reason to go back. I ordered a la carte, maybe I should have done a tasting menu, but I struggled to find something on the menu that was appealing, and I just thought the place was blah. I was excited to try it as I'd been to the French Laundry several times when Corey Lee was chef de cuisine, but I was disappointed. There are lots of other options in SF.

Thanks. Was thinking possibly Gary danko or one of Michael Mina's places but I'm a sucker for French cuisine

You can't go wrong with GD or MM, but Fleur de Lys is great.

One of the best meals I've ever had in my life was at Gary Danko - I highly recommend it. Expensive but the service and food was totally outstanding! Well worth it

We did Gary Danko - I got the 5 course meal, and GF got 3 course meal - so we shared the last 2 (cheese and dessert) - pricey but well worth it. If special occasion let them know (it was our anniversary). Follow that w Top of the Mark for drinks and the view and that's a great night! Enjoy...
