I would give a full 5 stars for the burger and fries. The rooftop views were also impressive, but we had to pay more for cocktails! It's incredibly expensive, considering the stunning views and fire pit at San Francisco Bay. Highly recommended!
Considering that trying to contact the management is unsuccessful, I'll take this post as a last-minute solution. My husband and I have been in contact with Charmaine's management before regarding an incident that occurred on 5/4. After our wedding at city hall, we were informed that all drinks and food would be covered by the server.
It's surprising that I hadn't made it to this place until two years after law school, even though we didn'nt have a reservation. We were taken straight to the restaurant and given tables by the waitress who checked our ID before taking the elevator up to what I believe is an empty room.
In San Francisco, it's always nice to have a rooftop destination that offers sweeping city views and ambiance. The atmosphere is comfortable and you can easily walk up to the Proper Hotel via McAllister or vice versa.
We went to Charmaine's for a friend' birthday celebration, and although it appeared to be fun, the actual cooking was not as impressive as expected. The fire pit seating arrangement, which seemed cramped, left us with no place to drink from and snacks scattered around the table; we also found that we were having drinks on charcuterie boards and couldn't put our drinks down on the small tables because they were too hot outside.
