Stats:
  • 44 dishes entered by diners at Luella
Tips:
  • On a sunny day, reserve an outside table. Groups of around six will be most comfortable reserving the restaurant's lone booth.
  • Finding a street spot in this 'hood is next to impossible. Go with $10 valet parking in front of the Old Alhambra Theatre (on Polk, between Green and Union streets). Staff will even drive you to Luella's front door.
  • Sip a reasonably priced wine from southern Europe or California. Beer lovers will enjoy Belgian Chimay.

From OpenTable: 

luella is a sophisticated and charming neighborhood restaurant in beautiful Russian Hill. Acclaimed as a top newcomer to San Francisco's exciting food scene, luella's warm and inviting dining room provides the perfect backdrop for celebrated chef Ben de Vries' fresh and creative Mediterranean inspired cuisine.

This is my favorite restaurant (of the moment) in the Hyde/Polk area. It’s a good place to drop by for casual fine dining every couple of weeks. I really like the look and feel of the place, the food is good and the service is always great. Cool wine list too. The dishes that I have tried and like are: Shaved fennel with crispy parmesan wafer, ahi tuna tartare tacos, coca-cola braised pork shoulder.

Great ambiance; disappointing food. The wine, on the other hand, was truly excellent.
1. Lamb Chops. These were fine, but uninspired.
2. Ahi Tacos. The mango/fruit topping completely overwhelmed the taste of the Tuna.
3. Romaine Salad. eh…
Try the Kenneth Volk Mourvedre 2005 if available.

Dress nicely

Luella has a special kids' night on Sunday eve. with a more extensive children's menu than on other nights. It's more upscale than I expected so we were underdressed. My meal was satisfactory, but because it's a nice place they use…
