In Short
With a menu inspired by the overlapping culinary traditions of Chef Larry Tse's heritage, this frequently packed restaurant puts an innovative twist on the fusion concept. In a dining room with blond wood tables, a slate floor and moss-colored walls punctuated by unobtrusive modern art prints, patrons delight in the carefully assembled wine list and sup on entrees like flatiron steak atop warm wasabi noodles and chicken breast with roasted Portobello mushrooms drizzled in white truffle oil sauce.

The place is really nice, comfortable, clean. The people were friendly and service was really good. Never had to ask twice for anything and they always made sure we didn't need anything. The seafood was great. I loved the appetizers. Prices are reasonable. Parking is not so great though. I would still go again.

Whenever I've got guests in town I take them to The House and we all leave feeling well fed and happy with the relatively low cost. Great fish dishes with lots of imaginative pairings, wonderful salads, to-die-for-sandwiches at lunch, and satisfying desserts. The only drawbacks are: too small a space for the number of guests (but everyone's so happy that it still a good experience) and the meal is kind of rushed -- they actually get 4-5 seatings for dinner each night! But The House is still one of my favorite restaurants in The City. Cab-it as the North Beach parking is as bad as it gets. Also, be prepared for encounters with drunks spilling out onto the street from the next-door historic bar.

Ask the server what they recommend and just go with that, they always know what the best dishes are that day. it's a small restaurant but service is professional and quick. just don't show up without a res you have a snowball's chance in hell of getting in.
