The Scene – The name of this trendy restaurant aims to lightheartedly elevate the reputation of the underappreciated dining utensil and give a nod to KFC, the space's previous inhabitant. The décor is reminiscent of an old-fashioned diner with clever details such as water poured from clear plastic coffee pots. Vinyl booths and pop art are warmed by candlelit tables and a lively Mission crowd clearly out to have a good time. – – The Food – An inventive menu features modern takes on classic comfort-food dishes. Appetizers steal the show with bright, sparkling…

Memorable and Tasty Comfort Food
by r3r
I honestly had trouble deciding what to order, because almost everything on the menu was talking to me. Don't go looking for a light healthy meal - instead go for a night off from the diet, and enjoy the food. I had the server help me decide on nearly everything - and she made some good recommendations. The only thing I wasn't too fond of was the dessert - the strawberry crisp a la mode. The strawberries didn't taste as fresh as I had hoped. Everything else, though...very good.
- Pros: Delicious; Interesting Decor
- Cons: I ate too much

Hold the salt please
by sweetfe2
I checked this place out with a few friends. We ordered 8 to 10 different dishes. The menu was interesting. The ingredients fresh. Presentation was very good. The interior in trendy - funky in a good way. The service was excellent. Everyone was friendly and helpful. Unfortunately they have a heavy hand when it comes to salt. I tend to be sensitive to that, but after the meal I asked the other less salt sensitive co-diners and they all agreed everything was way too salty. If they could curb the salt this place would be a keeper.
- Pros: friendly staff, interesting menu
- Cons: the food is way too salty

Spork is Great.
by utastelikebbq
I have been to Spork twice now. First time I ordered every appetizer on the menu. That's just how I roll. I suggest anything with cheese. The goat cheese in particular was perfection. Next time, I got this delicious noodlely thing. The waiters were great and the food was great. Great and great.
- Pros: great cheese, great service
- Cons: kind of expensive for the portion size
