Long over due review. Been coming here for a few years and more regularly recently. Strong drinks. ( Carlos and Kristoff) Amazing fast attentive staff. Unique wall decor. Marble floors, old world bar and a vibe. Don’t wonder- just come and explore. Flavorful steaks, classic fish a chips, deviled eggs are tasty and dive into the refreshing salads. Did I mention the cocktails & service ? See you there.

We came to the Cavalier for Christmas brunch. We’ve been to the mall so many times and always missed this place and Christmas felt like a good time to try it out. We had reservations but they were not needed as the place was fairly empty for the holiday. Our prix fixe menu was exceptionally good. I’m not usually a fan of turkey but the herb marinated turkey breast was delicious. The service was also excellent and they had a great doggy menu as well - all in all, they took great care of us (and our dog!). Definitely plan to come by again for some of their more standard fare.

This is a hidden gem that makes you want to return again and again. Tonight’s meal was very sincere, with rich flavors that weren't overwhelming; the chef has clearly worked hard on the recipes. The ambiance is stylish yet warm. Service-wise, it was textbook—attentive and quick. The portions are very large, ensuring you leave completely full. It’s great to see the quality getting better and better. Whether for the taste or the environment, it’s worth a special trip. Highly recommended!

Exceptional experience all around for our party of four. Start with the Smoke Deviled Eggs, they are incomparable; just make sure you get everything with a bite for the full experience. The Brussels Sprout Chips remind me of the former Longbranch Saloon in Berkeley. Delicious, a little difficult to eat with a fork. I had the Marlowe Burger, and it was excellent all around. (A shareable burger is also on the menu.) The Pork Tenderloin is exceptional. The Fries are unparalleled. Service is warm and friendly, matching the warm interior. Give yourself 90 minutes to enjoy the experience. We’ll be back.

We hosted our wedding reception at The Cavalier and Marianne’s, and it’s hard to put into words just how exceptional the experience was. From start to finish, everything exceeded our expectations — and our friends and family are still raving about it. We were longtime fans of The Cavalier before ever getting engaged, so when it came time to choose a reception venue, it was truly a no-brainer. Incredible food and drinks, exceptional service, and a warm, vibrant atmosphere were at the top of our list — and The Cavalier delivered on every front. The dinner reception was intimate, elevated, and absolutely delicious. The team set up the space beautifully, striking the perfect balance between classic elegance and cozy charm. We also had our cocktail hour and post-dinner celebration at Marianne’s, which was the coolest vibe. It felt like the perfect transition from dinner to dancing — effortlessly stylish, a little bit moody, and just so much fun. It was the kind of space that made everyone want to stay all night (and we basically did). A special shoutout to Hope, the events coordinator, who was incredible throughout the planning process. She worked closely with us and our wedding coordinator to make sure every detail was nailed down — from timeline and layout to menu selections and flow. Her communication and warmth made everything feel smooth and stress-free. If you’re looking for a unique, elevated, and genuinely memorable venue in San Francisco with standout food, great cocktails, and impeccable service, we can’t recommend The Cavalier and Marianne’s highly enough. Hosting our wedding here was one of the best decisions we made, and we’ll always be grateful for the experience.
