Stylish Burmese-fusion spot with standout tea leaf salad, creative cocktails, and solid gluten-free/vegetarian options, but portions run small and pricing plus service inconsistency can frustrate; best before shows if you book.
Teakwood delivers solid neighborhood dining with exceptional setting appeal and creative cocktails that justify its Hayes Valley location near the arts corridor. However, inconsistent food execution—ranging from vibrant tea leaf salad to occasionally flat or overseasoned mains—combined with variable service pacing and small portions relative to premium pricing prevent a higher grade. Best suited for pre-show cocktails and adventurous diners comfortable with occasional unevenness.
One caveat: Service can be slow or forgetful; plan extra time before performances
