Eight Tables By George Chen

I went here for my birthday, and it was a great experience! It's a tasting menu, so there's not much to think about besides whether you want a drink pairing. I think it's nice they have a non-alcoholic pairing, but we chose the wine pairing. The nine flavors first course is just amazing; what a way to begin a meal! I hope to come back again some day.

Worth the $200/person minimum price tag. Love the variety of dishes and flavors, plus a few fun surprises sprinkled throughout the meal. Very small and intimate restaurant with a high class feel to the decor. Service is impeccable. My favorite bites were the salty of the 8 essential flavors (top middle, fried taro ball) and the fish, which was such a fun mix of flavors and textures.

This was such a fun experience! The mixed reviews made me nervous but my partner and I had a really amazing time. Tucked away in an unassuming alley, with a door code and elevator, it created great ambiance and the restaurant itself continues the atmosphere. The waiters were incredibly attentive and polite, the food was great, and they put a candle in the dessert when they found out it was my birthday! Very pricy but definitely worth the experience in my opinion!

Amazing expirence and well worth the price. A must visit if you are in San Francisco. The staff is extremely attentive and friendly without being intrusive or overly talkative. The food was one wild ride after another. Show up hungry because there is plenty of food. Looking forward to returning for the chef tasting expirence

Absolutely magical and unforgettable experience! We came for my birthday (and turned into an engagement💍😃) expecting to sit in the dining room but as a surprise they sat us at the chefs table. The food was delicious, perfectly prepared, with wonderful wine pairing. Chef Chen came by and explained many of the dishes too! We even got to take a picture with the skilled staff! Truly amazing service as well!! Highly recommend

This was the best dinner of my life! My two girls and I are so lucky to have enjoyed an amazingly fantastic meal here. And as fortunate as we are to have one of the few tables at Eight Tables by George Chen, we were even more blessed to be able to eat inside the kitchen at this incredible restaurant. The food is beyond comparison and the Chef’s Table gave us front row seats to the stage where the magic happens. We also received a history lesson about Chinese culture as well as an education in wine that was shared with passion and enthusiasm. I don’t think any of us will forget this night. Here are photos of the food.

Eight Tables is one of our favorite fine dining experiences! I love the decore and each dishes. I was hesitant at first because I never tried fine dining Chinese. It's always been fast take outs or family style dining. Eight tables did not disappoint! In fact, they far exceeded our expectations, so much that we can't wait to come back when the menu changes.
