The food here is decent, the burger is the best in the area imo, but the service is severely lacking. Multiple servers have failed to check in on us, the food is really slow to come out, and it takes a long time to get the bill especially when it's hard to get their attention

Good food with great guest service. Parking is an issue but worth the frustration.

Can’t hear recently for dinner with friends during restaurant week. We all ordered from the price fixe menu - Dungeness crab dumplings, pork chop and salted caramel pot de creme. Got there before the rest of the party but didn’t get anything except water til we were all seated. Had I known that, then I would have sat at the bar to order a drink.

Came here a year ago with a large group. We arrived early then too but they suggested that we sit at the bar if we wanted to order drinks before the back patio was at up for us.

Warning: Do NOT schedule a reservation less than TWO hours before closing. They WILL run out of their GOOD menu items and will only tell you once you’ve had your appetizers, making it impossible to get out.

Went last Saturday at 9, for SF Restaurant week. The plan was to have their 3 course dinner with Bavette Steak, a prime attraction (see menu attached). After placing the order and AFTER having the appetizer, we were informed the kitchen had run out of the steak!! Reluctantly, we both chose the Tuna instead. Minutes later, we were told that they had ONE Tuna left, so I HAD to take the Pork chop. The server did offer an extra dish on the house, but there literally isn’t anything else we wanted - just went with some Crab dumplings (very small, do not recommend) to get on with it.

The pork chop was not something I’d ever have again.

The ONLY good thing about it all was the appetizer (in hindsight should have had it as the extra dish) - the chicken liver pate was exquisite!

It’s VERY poor form to inform the guests AFTER serving them the appetizer that you’ve run out of the entree!

Food is good but service is often rushed

A bit loud and cramped, but otherwise a fun, energetic place. We enjoyed the butter lettuce salad, pizza, and spaghetti. I’d like to go back and try some of the other small plates, they all looked good. Don’t get the hominy fritters, they are too salty. The crab & burrata dumplings were also a bit salty, but there was a nice amount of crabmeat. Good service, although all of our dishes arrived at roughly the same time, so our tiny table felt quite crowded.

Decent food and good cocktails, but way more expensive than it should be, and our bill had 2 items that we didn't order added to our bill.

Delightful little niche at Castro. Nice and quiet with great atmosphere. Great food selection at affordable prices.

I ate here this morning for the first time the meal was nice but it could've been a larger portion of nachos and salad ????. 3/17/24.

Great food, drinks, and location! Service was horrible. We couldn't get water after asking twice and struggled to get the bill. We got the chorizo pizza and white bean app and was great. Outside patio super cute and great vibes but service made this a challenging experience.

Disappointing burger, wine served too cold and without offering a taste. Nice patio.

We ate dinner on Valentine's eve before we went to a show nearby. Food was delicious. Especially outstanding were the butternut squash dumplings (we ordered it a second time, they were so good - the pepitas and brown butter sauce was amazing), crispy fried brussels sprouts (I order these in a lot of restaurants and these are now at the top of my list), Thai spiced pork sausages, and the puree of carrot soup (the addition of the curry creme fraiche and pomegranate seeds made this soup special). The staff was very friendly and we enjoyed our drinks.

Nice atmosphere but waiter seemed inexperienced or uninterested and two of our three entrees were either undercooked (we sent the pork back for more time in the oven) or bland. On the plus side, the salad entree was delicious. Not our first visit but probably our last; San Francisco has a lot of restaurants from which to choose.

Loved sitting out on the back porch. Cocktails and burgers for lunch.

Glad to get a table around 6pm on Friday.
I ordered a burger, but a bit disappointed. It was dry, wasn’t juicy and overcooked. Steak wasn’t really good as expected.
Prices are reasonable.
Service was good, it was a main reason I gave 4 stars. Overall experience was ok. Will come back again if I go to Castro neighborhood.

The hominy fritters were the most memorable part of the meal - the lemon aioli was super tangy and delish. My husband had the chorizo pizza with sunnyside up eggs. For me, the pizza was too floppy, but I'm just not a fan of needing to fold my slice.

I went for the fresh spaghetti with Starbelly bacon: the noodles were extra thick and fun to eat, but I do prefer my bacon crispier than their half-bacon, half-pork belly approach. Good sauce, good cheese.

We finished it off with lillet-soaked cherries in an arborio rice pudding. Did the cherries make any sense with the pudding? No! But I'm always going to be happy shoveling rice pudding in my mouth.

Would go again!

I've been going to Starbelly consistently since they opened in 2009, averaging 1 - 2 times a month. Over the course of the last year or so, the quality of the food and the service, which used to be consistent, has gone downhill. I don't know if it was a management change or all the new folks on staff? Either way, my experience on Sunday was unacceptable. The service was horrendous, the food was rushed and not timed properly based on our order of appetizers, mains and sides, it all came out at once - before the drink order no less. Multiple failed attempts to deliver the right cocktails, no apologies, no excuses, just bad, bad service. I never did see that server again after he took our order. I had to walk up to the front of the restaurant to ask for our check. What a shame, Starbelly used to be on my recommendation list for visitors, I won't be going back until some serious changes happen.

Consistently good, California small plates perfect for sharing. Clean and refreshing tastes served in smart surroundings at a reasonable rate. Perfect for a first date or catch up with friends. Dog-friendly either in front or in back patio.

Somewhat disappointed :( Butternut squash pizza left much to be desired, more of a flatbread with not much cheese. Burger was undercooked and wait to order was fairly long. Seating was good (for group of 6) and server was nice :)

The burger was not worth to eat.
The patty was overcooked outside, there is no souse at all in the burger so it was dry. Tomato was tasteless. French fries was also overcooked. Do not recommend.
