Guang Shi Review of Atelier Crenn
This restaurant is by far my favorite in San Franc...
This restaurant is by far my favorite in San Francisco. I went there with my family to celebrate graduating college and it was the perfect choice. If you want to impress a date (someone who appreciates food, of course), THIS is the place. It's not like any other restaurant I've ever been to. Open minds are necessary for this experience, to fully enjoy it and take it for what it is: A culinary journey that delights both your eyes and taste buds.
The food was so good that I had to eat slow in order to take in all the different flavor pairings.
This restaurant is pushing boundaries that too many restaurants are afraid to in this city. If you want tomato soup with croutons, mac and cheese or steak and fries- this is not your place! I'm so sick of all the new 'popular' hot spots in this city that do nothing but imitate each other by pairing fresh seasonal ingredients in a conventional way. Finally a place that can surprise and make a good impression!
The atmosphere is understated and quiet. It makes the food be the centerpiece. I can't wait to go back. Every foodie in the bay area NEEDS to try this spot, I promise you won't be disappointed :)
Possible negatives: This is by no means comfort food, it's culinary art at it's finest. It's pricey. It's not a quick in and out dining experience. But, I swear it's all worth it! :)
