Reviews for Pearl 6101 in San Francisco, CA
Food: 3/5 Service: 4/5 Ambiance: 4/5 Overall: The food was standard fare in my opinion. Food: Seared Tuna Crudo - 3/5 - Pretty... standard fare in terms of taste. The fish tasted fresh. Stead Tartare - 3/5 - Similar to the tuna the taste was standardfare. Duck Leg - 3.5 - This was a little different with the crispiness which was a nicer touch. This did dry out the duck alittle bit though. Spiced Pear Upside Down Cake - 3/5 - I really couldn't taste the pear that much. The good thing is that thecake was moist. Chocolate Creme Caramel - 3/5 - A very rich and dense chocolate creme for sure. A nice take on the standardcreme caramel and by far more decadent. Service: 4/5 - Very friendly and attentive staff. Ambiance: 4/5 - A cute ambianceinside along with good outdoor seating. Read more
We had the famous handkerchief pasta and the shrimp spaghetti. Both pastas had great texture--noodles were fresh and properly... cooked. The sauces left more to be desired though. Both were super rich and mostly tasted like butter. There was no spice to thehandkerchief pasta sauce and it would have benefitted from some. The spaghetti also had just a buttery, herbacious sauce, butthankfully had some spice. Bread/butter, olives, and deserts were tasty. Friendly and fast service.

I’d give this 4.5 ?? s if I could. Great neighborhood atmosphere with homemade pasta dishes and fresh ingredients ?????????... The Cesar ???? was a bit overdressed but the croutons were a home run ?? The cauli was a pleasant surprise and the ???? pastawas worth the average service (to be fair it was crowded and we were sitting outside). I’ll be back to try the steak anddessert ???? Read more
Amazing experience at Pearl 6101! Our whole party enjoyed it!! Highlights were the roasted cauliflower app and crab gemelli... pasta main. Americano coffee was also good! Grapefruit mocktail was amazing. ?? But really, we loved everything. Beautifulambiance, nicely paced meal, chef came by to check in. Everything was fabulous. Get an early reservation to enjoy the meal. Wegot a 5:30 reservation and it was perfect. We want to come back soon, as they have a seasonal rotating menu! ???? Read more
Solid food with nice service. Crudo was tasty, beef tartare was on point and fresh. The pork belly was tasty as well. The only... underwhelming thing for me was the pasta. The noodles were a bit over cooked and chewy while the flavor wasn’t much to writehome about. All in all, I would definitely come back and try some more items! Read more
Had an 815 dinner reservation with my wife. They have beautiful outdoor seating and heaters, but we prefer to sit inside to... avoid getting too cold. The handkerchief pasta (customized to be gluten free) continues to be our favorite dish and thecocktails never disappoint. Most of the menu can be done gluten free which is nice. I'd recommend trying to get an earlierreservation if possible as we felt quite rushed / worse service than when we'd done an earlier time prior. Read more
Service and food was out of this world. My only complaint is for the restaurant to be marked better. Our only clue was the stack... of menus on the host stand. The tile outside the restaurant has a different restaurant name. It was cute, but confusing. Thename wasn’t marked anywhere on the door or on exterior signage. Our waitress had good suggestions for the menu. When readingthe menu I wasn’t sure about the mushrooms in the Mafaldine, but it was phenomenal. Everyone talks about theHandlerchief—get it. Loved the outdoor vibes and heaters. Would go again! Read more
A rock solid neighborhood restaurant with top quality ingredients. Especially memorable was the chocolate almond tart, which... was the lightest, most pleasant chocolate dessert. It's not sweet (for a dessert), which makes it delicate and super refreshing.It's for someone who wants a light, interesting, yet deeply satisfying finish to a meal. Read more
