Trestle, San Francisco-4/9/2022

Dinner with friends on Restaurant Week

 I was able to have a table for 6 tonight and it also just happened to be Spring Restaurant week in San Francisco.  Usually for one week restaurants across the city will offer multi course meal at a fixed and discounted rate.

The entrance of the restaurant.  You have to wait outside until your table is ready.

The menu tonight is a 4 course dinner at $45 which is a very good deal.

Trestle only have 1 able right at the entrance that can seat 7 people.

The atmosphere at Trestle is cozy and as soon as you seat down it is really relaxing.

Trung, Hoa, and Tuan.

Maily, Me, and Ha.

Our waitress taking the order.

Since there are two choices per course, we make it easy and order 1 on each per couple so we can taste everything on the menu.

We are drinking a Chianti and Far Niente white

Jason is the general manager and he is really friendly and so nice to us.

Cheers!
