Bix

56 Gold Street
San Francisco, California 94133 ph: 415.433.6300


Perfect for a clandestine martini or a celebratory glass of Perrier-Jouet, Bix may be the sexiest restaurant in the city. The lights are low, the walls display moody Art Deco paintings, and piano music plays softly in the background. Best of all, the food has made great strides in the past year. The menu changes daily, but on a recent visit, heirloom tomato salad with arugula showcased Bix`s use of California`s freshest produce. Game is expertly prepared: when available, try seared duck breast with chanterelles, or roasted rack of lamb. This fine dining facility prepares and serves an American menu where people frequently get seafood. Expect the average entrée to cost $20 to $30, and you`ll be fine if dressed casual.

Atmosphere: The establishment has an elegant décor The restaurant is spacious with high ceilings. It has a romantic atmosphere and patroned by all kinds of people. Table talk is easy - this restaurant is quiet and subdued.

More Reasons to Go: The live jazz is a great part of your dining experience at this restaurant. Bix is appropriate (if not ideal) for anniversaries and other romantic evenings.

Eating & Drinking: Open for lunch and dinner.A full selection of alcoholic beverages are served, and you`ll find that there is an excellent wine list.

Notable Mention: One of San Francisco`s better restaurants.
