by Yuriko Burno on I've never eaten in the upstairs restaurant but frequented the downstairs market / take-out counter often. A great place for locals. Such a great space (warm and rustic) with a bakery and areas to meet friends for a coffee. Downstairs is also where you'll find a lot of classes or gatherings/presentations. Outside seating too. Ingredients are always fresh and the menu items are creative and delicious. Level of quality is consistently high which is as to be expected considering that the kitchen is shared between the market and restaurant. While I now call San Francisco home, I often find myself wishing that there was a Parish Market - type establishment down the street from my current residence. Certainly, I find myself missing the atmosphere and charm of Parish Market but it very well may be that it's just Inman Park that I miss.
by Ruthe Sohre on Going to start a rateclubs needs a half star facebook group. I'm giving Hardena 3 1/2. Things I love about it: small, friendly, family and locally owned, one of the cooks shares her first name with me, price, convenience to the broad street line, and byo. After reading about Hardena on rateclubs for the past few weeks, and talking with a friend of mine about it repeatedly as we have an overobsession with reading rateclubs reviews, we decided to venture there last night. I chose lamb, fish, and veggies as my toppings for rice. Don't get me wrong, I completely devoured everything on the plate . . . but this often says more about my eating habits than it does about my enjoyment of the meal. Everything was "a-ok." I enjoyed the meal; just not five star enjoyment.
by Dee M. on Where should I start? With the $20 cover for a place with no caché, no line, nothing. The ridiculously arrogant and rude door staff who stood there looking pretentious, vain and dumb and let at least 15 of their coked-out train wreck party friends with bad over-brushed Barbie hair extensions in ahead of us because they all knew the secret handshake? (And I only say coked-out because I actually saw them rubbing their noses and making snorting sounds before they teetered up to the bouncers in their 5-inch stilettos). I think that's enough, right? I leave this overrated spot to the party girls and the bridge and tunnel.
