What People Are Saying About Greens Restaurant

The Scene – Greens has long offered a classic San Francisco experience, mixing spectacular bay views with a casual mix of seasoned Marin socialites, tourists and green-minded locals, all dining on an upscale vegetarian menu of pan-global delights. Come for lunch or sit down before the sun sets to soak up the full beauty of the bay-and-headlands view. – – The Food – It's worth braving the old waterfront warehouse to experience the fifth dimension of flavor that Executive Chef Annie Somerville coaxes from a braised tofu cube alone. Velvety yellow-squash risotto and taste…

I am so glad that I was not the one paying for dinner, because I would have refused to. We got 2 appetizers, the squash blossoms and the spring rolls. The blossoms were obviously frozen and chewy. These were something you would get at Applebees , they were basically bland jalapeno poppers. The spring rolls were paired with the wrong garnishments. One of my friends paid $17 dollars for a ten inch pizza with nothing special about it. The veggetables were not fresh, and the cheeses were nothing special.
My other friends got the green curry, which had good flavor but was not spicey, as they requested. And it was cold. Worst of all by far was my "fettucini" the sauce was runny, there were only tomoatoes and flakes of basil and EGG NOODLES. Like cheap, sticky egg noodles that come in the giant bag at the grocery store. I will never eat here again, and I will tell all my friends not to waste their time and money.
- Pros: good wine, good attmosphere
- Cons: way too expensive for what you get, bad food
Best vegetarian food in the country!
by relentless7 at Citysearch
Greens is my favorite restaurant hands down (I've eaten at a lot of great places too). It's very Californian and 100% vegetarian. The atmosphere is great too. The recipes are seemingly simple, but usually has quite a lot of flavor. And the execution is always great.
I wouldn't recommend Greens for brunch. But it might be the best vegetarian meal you sit down to.
A lot of dishes are very rich. But it's a nice treat on occasion. A guaranteed spot to please in San Francisco.
- Pros: Excellent food
- Cons: Pricey
When pleasure meets with food quality

Very pleasant and unusual place. Wood all over the restaurant, view on the Marina (not the tourist one, the one in West North Beach).
It is a vegetarian restaurant and it is definitively a trip in the "Taste world".
We were 4 and shared all the dishes (yes, the swine flue fear is gone for now) so we all got to test 4 very different styles.
All the 4 dishes were good to very good and all were original in their presentation and taste.
Highly recommended if you like the mix of good View, Good food, good service and original atmosphere.
- Pros: Gorgeous view, excellent service, creative and organic food
- Cons: Closes at 9 PM, not the cheapest in town

A Restaurant Coasting on Past Success
by GWK at Citysearch
I remember Green's when it was unique, interesting, and there were always items on the menu that were fresh and exciting. That was then. I still go back periodically, but have been disappointed every time. It seems that Green's is coasting along, still bringing in customers, but not producing anything resembling cutting-edge dining. It's a shame. Without it's location, I'm guessing the restaurant wouldn't survive. Today, I found the menu to be dull, the food lackluster and bland, the service friendly but very spotty (I waited a long time for our server to check in after presenting entrees, which never happened, and finally flagged her down to ask her to add items listed for my entree on the menu but missing from the plate). Not particularly acceptable, especially given the prices.
This mediocre experience was capped off by having a staff member ask us to vacate our table at 1 hour and 45 minutes, as we were preparing to leave anyway (notably there were a number of empty tables and there were only a few people waiting - the request was a mystery).
Overall, my 3-star rating feels like a bit of a gift. Green's has done, and can do, much better.
