   We had a delicious meal at La Bande last night! We had a 5:30 reservation prior to a 7:30 show at the Orpheum. We ate on their beautiful patio and the heaters kept it comfortable. My husband and I both got the chef's tasting menu but they made several substitutions to accommodate my pregnancy. Everything was great and we especially enjoyed: The minuet triple cream brie, both of the house-made jams, the merguez sausage, the avocado toast, and the almond cake. The service was great and the timing was perfect for the show. We'll definitely dine at La Bande again when we go to the theater.

   The hidden gem of SF. I’m so glad I found this place. It checked all of my boxes. From the beginning to the end. We were running late and I called to let them know and they saved our table. Our waiter Alfredo( I hope I remembered his name) was delightful. Pleasant fun and very attentive. I can’t eat to go back and try something new. Thank you for making my evening wonderful

   Service was extremely slow, which can be a problem if you are on a time crunch like seeing a show nearby. We waited over 45 minutes and still hadn't received our drinks.

   Waited 15 mins for drinks, 40 for half the food we ordered. Then we had to leave for theater. Server did not take all undelivered food off the bill as promised. Food we got was great, waiter was somewhat apologetic but not communicative enough about problems kitchen was having

   La Bande offers both indoors and outdoors seating and we opted for dining inside the restaurant. We were curious about whether a meal of tapas would be sufficiently filling before our show at the nearby Orpheum. We can attest that it was! La Bande’s menu includes a variety of Spanish tapas, which you can buy by the plate. We decided to try the prix fixe “Chef’s Choice” at $49 per person. The chef is willing to make substitutions for those with dietary concerns. On the day we dined at La Bande, the weather was unusually hot by San Francisco standards, so I ordered a refreshing Saison Dupont Belgian ale on tap and my dining companion liked the Aval cider rose he ordered, also available on tap by the glass. The drink menu is extensive with many items available by the glass. They even had a special cocktail to honor Pride Month on the day we were there. Our waiter indicated that he is a resident of the Tenderloin neighborhood adjacent to which the restaurant is located. He did a great job serving our table, and we applaud the management for hiring locally! The very nice restaurant manager, Pedro, who told us that he is from the north of Spain, stopped by our table to make sure that his restaurant was running smoothly. Compared to the cost of dinner at the more formal adjacent restaurant, Villon, also part of the Proper Hotel, where we have dined several times in the past, we felt that La Bande was reasonably priced. We recommend La Bande as an excellent option for dining when attending events in the neighborhood, e.g., shows at the Orpheum, or if you happen to be in the Civic Center – Mid Market neighborhood for any reason.

    This restaurant featured a contemporary and comfortable vibe. We were greeted with warmth and charm by our server Josh who suggested the perfect wine to start. Then the chef offered a creative amuse-bouche that was fresh and delicious. Following that was a meal of delightful bites that we thoroughly enjoyed. We would not hesitate to return for another meal at this establishment. There was a team effort to accommodate the customers, and Josh stood out as a fun and amusing server making our meal even more enjoyable.

    Extraordinary dining adventure! We chose the Chef's Choice menu with a liter of the house wine, and we couldn't have be more thrilled with the selections! Guillermo, our waiter, is from Spain was especially helpful to guiding us for an authentic experience. Tremendous value and lots of fun. We thanked the kitchen staff on our way out and they were appreciative.

    Service was excellent, Arnando took great care of us. We were excited to try this as we enjoy going to Chramaine for cocktails and thought it would be fun to have a new dinner spot. Food was fine, nothing that would bring us back. The best items were the potatoes. The salted cod was extremely lacking. The garlic shrimp were oily and not garlicy. That said, their homemade hotsauce was excellent and made everything better. This is a great little spot to grab a quick couple nibbles either before or after a show, it is good enough to put some food in your belly, but its not stand out. Again the service was great and the ambience was lovely.

    One of the best dining experiences I can remember in the past few years. Restaurant is not only one of the most beautiful regarding the interior, the service was friendly, prompt, personal and the food was excellent. The tapas were delicious. We ordered the chef's tasting menu and it was a parade of food and a culinary adventure which made my birthday dinner very special. We had plenty of food to eat which was not the case at other tapas places I've been to. Highly recommend.

    Great outdoor dining experience. Server Josh made it a great experience. the food is solid, spanish warm and cold tapas with the interesting option of tinned fish. highlights included the beet tartlet and the sunchokes and pumpkin cold appetizer. We were celebrating my 50th birthday so the free glass of wine and appetizer were appreciated. good spot for pre-theater dining.

    La Bande is our go-to place for pre-theater dining. First, as someone who is gluten intolerant I appreciate that the chef has made some simple prep choices that create a menu of items nearly all GF. GF bread is available upon request and liberally provided as if the norm. I appreciate the wait staff who are universally friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. The variety of menu choices is fun and interesting. The food is flavorful and nicely presented. The new outdoor enclosure keeps the rain away and provides a quiet ambiance for easy conversation. The service is timely making it excellent for a theater date.

    A little tricky to find if you're coming from the Orpheum Theater (No large sign). Look for the building with the covered patio dining, and go to the far end. This was a fun experience for a birthday dinner before a show. We were seated and taken care of very quickly. Note - the tables are small. We ordered a lot of the small plates and they call came very quickly, so our table was crowded. I learned something - at a tapas place, it's OK to order one item each, and when they arrive, order another. Wish we'd done it that way! Food was always delivered very quickly. The food was excellent. We ordered 6 different plates (for 3 people) and were just hungry enough for dessert after. We had the Almond cake and the chocolate dish; both were incredible. Decaf coffee was OK, but tasted like Sanka... Oh - in true European style, you must request your bill. Otherwise you will wait. And wait.

    The food and service were excellent when we were there on Friday night before a show at the Golden Gate Theatre. I especially liked the White Beans & Pork Shoulder, and the Garlic Shrimp. They kept refilling our bread, which was warm and delicious, with garlic sauce and red pepper sauce provided. Or server was quite attentive, but didn't rush us at all. My one compliant is that the wine was all rather expensive ($16 for the least expensive glass, many bottles over $100, almost all bottles over $60). Overall, a very pleasant dinner with lots of variety in small plates.

    Tapas were outstanding, particularly the squid conservas, halibut cheek planchas, crispy cauliflower. We sat inside, in the glassed triangle, which was quiet and nice to see outside. The service timing was a little spotty, not surprising as they've only recently reopened. This was a great option for dining before a show.
