(From November 2011)

Fusion cuisine makes a splash here, where tastes of the Orient (especially Vietnam) blend with French techniques and traditions. A seafood broth, dark, mysterious, and herbal, made an excellent starter, as did a cold seafood platter of lobster, crab, shrimp, smoked salmon, and oysters with caviar. Sea bass, baked with artichoke hearts and shiitake mushrooms, is a winning main course; another is the oft-available lobster, cooked in a variety of ways (bathed in a cognac beurre blanc on our visit). Our only quibble was that the service in this dignified dining room was a bit off the mark; the waiters seemed detached and ill-informed. Bar.

(From May 2012)

The atmosphere is less formal than that of its Alamo Heights sibling (especially if you eat in “Freddy’s Bar”), but you’ll still find the excellent, French-accented Asian and European dishes that owner Frederick Costa is known for. Looking for something healthy? Mahimahi (or another fresh catch) comes in a light saffron broth, along with a veritable alphabet soup of vegetables, from artichoke to zucchini. Crisp-fried, rice-paper-wrapped spring rolls, served with fresh mint, cilantro, and a spicy dipping sauce, are a treat any time of day. Pizzas, too, with imaginative combinations: the duck, shiitake mushroom, and creamy leek is a favorite. Bar.
