(Lindsay, Me, and Pete) Lindsay and I work together at Applebee's, and Pete is a regular at our job. A couple weeks ago, Pete took us out to dinner in San Francisco at a restaurant called Sutro's in the Cliff House. We had reservations for 7:30, and we were sat as soon as we checked in at the host stand. The restaurant was beautiful. There were large elevated windows towering over you that over looks the ocean and jazz music playing in the background. I enjoyed the ambiance because it created a peaceful environment to appreicate the company I was with.
We were introduced by a young man as our waiter that took care of us all night. He made recomendations of what was most popular on the menu, what wines would work well with our dish, and replenished our drinks as soon as they were empty.
For dinner, Lindsay ordered Wild Mushroom "Farrotto." Originally she wanted the duck but they were fresh out. Pete ordered the Grilled Natural Beef 12 oz. New York Strip Steak with a side of gratin potatoes. I had the Line-Caught Pacific Swordfish that was topped with dungeness crab. I was very pleased with my dish, the fish was incredibly soft and melted in my mouth. All the dishes were presented very nicely in different plates that had garnishes for decoration.
Later in the evening we had three different dishes of dessert. By this time, we were all stuffed and already felt a food coma approaching. We had to cut the night short because we had work and school the next day. After dinner, we waited for the Escalade to pick us up as we were all on our way back to the south bay.
