First time visiting Sens Restaurant and wow — what an incredible experience! The ambiance is elegant with beautiful Mediterranean décor that immediately sets the tone. The service was outstanding. Our server was gracious, attentive, and took the time to clearly explain the menu, which we really appreciated. The food completely exceeded our expectations. I had the Spanish paella and it was unforgettable — rich, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. My wife ordered the Branzino filet with crispy skin and a tender, juicy center. We shared both plates and every bite was exceptional. For dessert, we enjoyed the mascarpone cream orange glaze cake — decadent and absolutely delicious. Highly recommend Sens if you’re looking for refined Mediterranean cuisine and a memorable dining experience. We’re already planning our return!

Fantastic restaurant with a world class view! I had the Mediterranean appetizer (hummus etc.) and the steak. Both were delicious. Seated at the window with a nice view of the Embarcadero and Ferry Building. Wine was great. Service was perfect. The Hyatt next door has a bridge connecting to the restaurant entrance.

Delicious Paella and wonderfully aged beef with broccolini were the perfect choices for us to share!

I had a wonderful experience at this restaurant while attending an office party. Everything was absolutely delightful from start to finish. The food was delicious, the service was exceptional, and the atmosphere made the evening truly special. The stunning view and prime location added an extra touch. I would highly recommend this place.

What a great mashup of Mexican and Italian flavors. We went on a very busy night but the staff was still highly attentive and the food was amazing. Try the aranici appetizers or the fresh bruschetta. For dinner the birria lasagna was so good and unique. Will visit here next time I am in downtown SF.

Cool spot for a happy hour. Drinks are pretty affordable, the food has some unique offerings (octopus which ended up being really soft, tasty)! Pizza is also solid, nice undercarriage and char. Service, though the restaurant was quite busy was still timely and friendly. Was able to get a table with some ease still. Nice to sit out on the patio. Fun vibes on an after-work evening!

Paella and a salad is perfect amount for two. Get the arugula salad! Staff and food were amazing. Tons of seating. Loved sitting by the window and watching people outside play Padel. There’s also an outdoor seating area with many fireplaces.

This restaurant was an absolute find. Conveniently located next to the Hyatt hotel and the Ferry building, it’s a great stop for a delightful dinner. The menu has some delicious finds and the atmosphere is warm and cozy. This is a very romantic place for date night or a nice place to have dinner with some friends

Lovely spot. Sat outdoors on the patio facing the Embarcadero and loved the view. Great spot to catch up with a friend(s), go on a date, meet up with colleagues, etc. Good atmosphere both indoors and outdoors. Had the paella and chicken bucket and both were very good. As a native Marylander, their crab dip was underwhelming and small in size. Highly recommend this spot.

Went on Fried Chicken Fridays and the fried chicken was excellent. The hot sauce was spicy but also flavorful, the rosemary honey was a great compliment to their great tasting (but slightly on the hard side) biscuits, and their shoestring fries were wonderfully seasoned and crispy. Beautiful ambiance with views of the Bay Bridge from the table and a sleek bar design.

David, our server, provided an amazing experience with menu explanation to food and drink suggestions. He and his team kept our drinks full and the food coming. The atmosphere is super lively with refreshing decor. Love the beautiful blue mosaic and stone walls. We (table for 2) were sat at the same time as three larger parties (6-10). David made us feel as though we were his only table tho, he managed all of us at the same time... maybe superman's cousin? We enjoyed 'Ready 4 Anything', Brussel Sprouts, Butterleaf Salad, Charcuterie, Duck Confitt, Flan and their signature Espresso Gelato. Lucky us, resturant week! Would recommend this location found on the third floor above the Embarcadero and conveniently located to the Hyatt Regency. Go and Enjoy!!

Been here multiple times for lunch/brunch. Always a pleasant experience. Cool venue, great selection. The Mediterranean spread is a great shareable appetizer. Lamb burger was good. Blueberry lavender drink is a bit of a unique taste: kinda sour aftertaste.

Went to company Xmas party. Can 25 people in the group. Food was delicious, but only one vegetarian main. Service was attentive, but had a tendency to push beverages on the group. It's a roomy place with great views, but acoustics are challenging.

Good food and so-so service. Pretty loud in the outside covered areas. The cod was good and the pork was also very good.

This restaurant truly impresses with its gorgeous views of the bay bridge and a beautiful, stone-inspired interior that effortlessly creates a Spanish ambiance. There are multiple rooms and plenty of space, including an event space, making it versatile for any occasion. Mediterranean Spreads (4/5): All three sauces/dips were incredibly rich and creamy, a delightful start. However, the price felt a bit steep at $21 given the portion size. Arancini (4/5): These corn and mozzarella-stuffed bites were nicely crisp on the outside with a decent, though not particularly special, flavor on the inside. With only three to a plate, they didn't quite justify the cost. Tomato and Lemon Cucumber Salad (3/5): This salad was tasty but nothing remarkable. I'd suggest skipping it for something more unique. Lamb Skewers (3/5): Unfortunately, the lamb was overcooked and chewy, which was quite disappointing. Chicken Slider (4/5): A standard fried chicken with coleslaw, it tasted good but was pretty much what you'd expect to find at any basic shop. Not worth ordering here for a special experience. Paella (4.5/5): Highly recommend this one! The shrimp and chicken were really tasty, and the presentation was great. While it looks big, it's a very shallow dish, so it's enough for perhaps two people to share. For a group, you'd definitely need to order multiple. The items on the menu are a bit costly, and they have a small, curated selection. It would be nice to have a few more options. A big plus was our waitress, who was kind enough to let us order a few items from the happy hour menu even though we weren't seated by the bar.

Food: 4-5/5 Service: 5/5 Ambiance: Formal casual Depending on the dish, it’s a 4-5. I thought the Mediterranean spreads were very tasty and flavorful (5/5). The Brussels sprouts and crab dip are a 5 for me. I personally really enjoyed the paella since I enjoy my paella with meats, but flavor wise, it wasn’t one of the top tier paella I’ve had. Pork chop and lamb were nice (4) and flavorful but not the top dishes for me. A ton of business clients and folks go for happy hour.

My family and I had a late dinner during our visit to SFO, and the ambience of the restaurant was incredibly welcoming. It had a rustic Spanish style with a view overlooking the Bay Bridge along Embarcadero Street. The food was amazing, from the delicious starters and salads to the mouthwatering main entree. However, it was a bit disappointing that they didn't offer a side starch option for the red snapper. Despite that, I would've given them five stars for the overall experience. I particularly enjoyed the roasted cauliflower; it was delicious! The friendly servers also added points to the excellent customer service

Google classified this place as a "rooftop" restaurant but it turned out to be more like an indoor restaurant with terrace seating on the 3rd floor of a building surrounded by big clear windows. Interior decor is modern Mediterranean and service was good. We didn't have to wait long for our food to show up and most of the dishes we had were tasty. Would recommend the Mediterranean Spread as appetizer but wish they also serve pita bread to go with this dish. Too much spread too little focaccia. Don't be shy to ask for a second when you are out.

5 stars for atmosphere and clearly a well-loved spot for after work crowd. Paella was not the worst I’ve had but I was surprised by the addition of broccoli and the omission of butter beans. Service was rushed, my plate was nearly taken as I was taking a bite and my beverage was removed before I was finished too. We had desserts and they were also okay. I would’ve loved an espresso but that’s not on the menu, FYI

Popular after work destination for coworkers to have team dinners. That’s the vibe but also loud. There are nice views of the ferry building though. Overall the food was very average. The appies were better than the mains. Steak was under seasoned, fish a little dry. Verdict: will not return unless forced to by work.

We ate at the bar, our drunks were made incorrectly, the courses arrived within minutes of each other, the bottle of white wines was room temperature. Oh yeah, the steak had a sauce that wasn’t on the menu. $220 for an inedible meal with bad service.
