Abacus - San Francisco

Tucked into a cozy nook of upper Hayes St., this romantic Asian-inspired gem captures old world tradition, California modernity and European sophistication in its cuisine, presentation and decor. Gorgeous freshly-cut flower arrangements, subtle comic hero inspired oil paintings, and an aromatic parade of perfectly appointed plates immediately introduce you to Abacus's uniquely elegant yet unassuming style. Choose from savory favorites such as mushroom & pine-nut stuffed wontons, the familiar yet extraordinary Mongolian Beef, or the delicately seared Sea Bass resting on a bed of pea shoots and ginger broth. Each carefully prepared dish lavishes flavorful gifts upon the palate, from joyful first bite until wistful last. As final testament to the quality, elegance and playful character which has won the hearts of locals, Abacus pairs its exquisite menu with an eclectic wine list suitable for every humor, taste and wallet.
