"I am a native of California, born in San Francisco, and my Dad and I ate at John's Grill as often as we could. My Dad was partial to the Martini's and I always got the **** Bridget without the alcohol. The food has gotten better overtime or perhaps my tastes have changed. I have taken my son there on many occasions, mostly birthdays, he loves it and we both have the Sam Spade special, which is delicious. The atmosphere is perfect and can be appreciated on many levels. On one special occasion, my 16th birthday, my Dad and I not only had a special dinner, but the staff treated me as if I were a princess. We then walked up the street to the Geary Theater and came back to John's for late coffee. I love this place!"
