The Progress

We came here for our wedding dinner and loved siting upstairs! Everything we had was amazing and they were so accommodating of our guests with dietary restrictions. Definitely recommend the cocktails !

Every dish is visually entertaining. Using lots of Japanese ingredients and flavors to make each dish unique and flavorful. You would specially enjoy that with Maitake one in each bite.

The dining format at this newly placed restaurant is sort of dinner party-esque. Each group pays a set price based on the number of dishes they want. Expect creative and unusual ingredients. Read more

Incredible food. Incredible staff . It's the most perfect California foodie place to be. Sustainable, fresh, innovative, relaxed and excellent. I have come here every trip to SF since moving away. 100%

Fantastic Asian leaning new American from the State Bird team, now with a Michelin star but still low key . Loved the lamb tartare , rabbit cavatelli , squid ink pasta , and clams . Really, everything.

The food is inspired by cuisines from all over, including dishes like a sunchoke roti with black truffle or lamb merguez with octopus and crispy squid . Read more

The food, the ambiance, the service were all lovely. I reserved the mezzanine for a family style dinner and the food was a great adventure all evening. Cocktails ????????. Attention to detail throughout.

Basically come here for the amazing but gout inducing food. The foie gras , caviar , bone marrow dumplings , and octopus are stellar. Cocktail program is amazing -wines are very pricey . Decor ????

All hype aside, this is a big, splashy, well conceived restaurant into which a lot of imagination and care has been put. You'll find dishes like seared beef with oyster sauce or fried pigs ears . Read more

Beautiful space, food, and service. Make reservations . Try a number of dishes and end with a shot of peanut milk .

The food here is as good as State Bird. Try the dates in crema and the pig ears . Both are awesome.

I think the food, service, and atmosphere are better than at sister restaurant State Bird next door.

The smoked lamb pastrami is what dreams are made of. Black pepper cavatelli was hot and delicious as well . Really can’t go wrong with anything!

Awesome restaurant by the State Bird people. Loved my Sunny Jin cocktail and a few of my fave dishes were the pig fries (with cauliflower salad ), buttered clams , and mushroom kale salad .

The "choose your own adventure" menu is BS. it's just a prix fixe . I was expecting a maze of choices much like a CYOA novel . by their definition, any menu with choices is a "choose your own adventure"

Comfortable ambience with a focus on amazing food and top-notch service!! Loved EVERY SINGLE bite including the lamb merguez , pig fries & OMG the black butter balsamic roasted figs !!!

Everything was superb, especially the pig fries . The crunch of the raw cauliflower and fried pig ear are balanced by plenty of herbs and a fish sauce vinaigrette that's as addicting as crack.

Fun family style menu, with a selection of seasonal additions to also consider. Great cocktails , and excellent service to boot.

Each portion is not that big so you can order and experience many different dishes. Merguez was extremely good among others.

Best dinner I’ve had in SF. The duck is fantastic. But TBH everything is. The ordering system is excellent.

My favorite restaurant in SF. Incredible service, food, atmosphere. Cannot wait to go back. The duck is sublime ????

Heavily Asian inspired family sharing menu. Their crab 'stir fry ' is great (crab stock reduced for three days), but state bird is still a much more enjoyable culinary experience.

Unlike their sister restaurant next door (State Bird Provisions ), The Progress has a full bar . You can also order most of the dishes at the bar if you can't get a reservation/table.

Fantastic cocktails , all the food we had was great, adored the curried peas dish. Amazing design. Big thumbs up

The pig fries , lamb merguez , and kiwi salad are perfect dishes. Also you must get the cheese cake ice cream .

Recommend ~6 small dishes & one large dish to share between 4 people. Everything is SO good.

Amazing food and cocktails , relaxed ambiance . Menu let’s you try lots of dishes and share with a group. Don’t miss the Pity the Fool ????

Must try the pig fries with shaved cauliflower . A well thought out dish with amazing flavors and textures.

Phenomenal service and incredible eats. Best octopus dish I've ever had (saying a lot!) -- my new favorite SF restaurant !! Go here!!! Go here!!!

Everything! Anything with the anchovy is delightful and the croquettes with corn , tomatoes and herbs is fresh and comforting all at once. Scrumptious.

Great food and attentive service ... but portions are skimpy for the steep price you pay and the family-style format leaves you no way to adjust.

If you can't get a reservation sit at the bar and order a la cart. Pair with a wonderful cocktail and enjoy the magical experience.

Everything was amazing. Favorites: pig fries , roti , black bass, lamb merguez .

This space used to be a theater . The wood-plank wall is Original! The tables and the benches are made from 2 fallen trees in the Presidio!

Try Sunny Jim if you like gin . Everything is tasty, especially enjoyed the raw halibut and octopus .

If you are coming with a group, try to reserve the round table upstairs. The table is secluded and is awesome for a dozen or so people.

They take great care of vegetarians and will make you special veggie plates for most items on the menu. ????

Choose 5 additions to share and a platter ( duck !) with an Austrian white wine

The roti is fantastic and fun to eat, and don’t miss the lamb tartare !

There won't be a name at the door. This is how the front door looks. Amazing drinks and creative food served here!

Hang at the bar for a more laid back experience. It's delicious and the service is great - it's definitely NOT better than State Bird though.

One of the best restaurants in San Francisco!

Walk in and sit at the bar and order a la carte. Better value than prix fixe and you don't need a reservation !

The entire meal was amazing. Don't think you can go wrong with any option on the menu.

The squid ink pasta , lentil salad with foie gras and rib eye were excellent.

Very nice place. Sister restaurant to State Bird. Highly recommend

Great atmosphere, lots of plants! Food is great and there’s an extensive wine list .

Service was great, especially the bartenders . The pig ears and rote were outstanding. Double thumbs up.

Order everything on the menu. Do not feel ashamed about this. (Btw the bar has full food service)

Same people as State Bird Provisions - hard to get a reservation but you can also walk into the bar area
