Myth Restaurant

This is what comes to mind when you think of a world-class dining experience.

I went here for drinks and dessert the other night and everything was fantastic. It's certainly a 'culinary experience'. The food is highly conceptual and experimental but executed well. By conceptual, I mean lots of foams, textures, presentation, and interesting flavor combinations (think basil sorbet).

The space blends industrial features with a streamlined 50's-inspired aesthetic. Prices are moderate to high but totally worth it. This place is pretty classy but not intimidating or rude as some fine dining can be. Our waitress was extremely nice and helpful even though we were just having dessert.

Definitely worth checking out!

They also have a cafe that's open during the day next door. It's kind of equidistant from Embarcadero and Montgomery BART stations.
