Editorial Review for Urban Tavern – by Patrick Heig
A long, white-marble bar with metal saddle stools and a green window banquette and tables make up the bar area, while a big communal table, a prize window booth and bistro-style seating--not to mention a horse sculpture welded together from old car parts--furnish the casual dining area. The lower level in back, with high-backed booths and white table linens, feels more like fine dining. The prices rival those of the city's top restaurants, but those expecting an Aqua- (one of C&L partners' other restaurants) grade experience may be left high and dry. However, the close proximity to Geary and late hours makes it a good pre- or post-theater option, and the variety of spaces and ambiances allow it to serve as both a casual place to grab a drink and a spot for a more formal dinner.

Insider Tips
ParkingThe restaurant will validate your valet parking ticket if you park in the Hilton's garage, which'll cost you $12 for three hours--about what you'd pay at a normal Union Square lot but a lot closer, and you'll feel more posh.
The ExtrasThe private dining room at Urban Tavern is bigger than many whole restaurants in SF, making it perfect for larger parties or corporate events.

Urban Tavern is a very elegant, beautiful space and the food is good. I had the goat cheese salad and the gnocchi and both were excellent. We had a bottle of this Spanish wine, that I can't recall the name and that the manager suggested and it, too, was delicious. I would definitely go again and I would go with a large group of friends, next time. They have a great communal table that looks like it woul be fun to have dinner at.
