Tad’s Steak House

Come by for a drink!! Bar area with friendly staff and TVs to watch the game. If you don't drink, they have fancy expressos too!! We've had a surprise party in the private back room. Great place to come when in the city. Take a break from shopping or a meal before a show.

I've been to the fancy steakhouses in this area; I wasn't expecting a steakhouse with a cafeteria vibe.You line up with other customers and place your order and pay at the counter. They give you a tray with your silverware, drink, and salad (plain lettuce-plus with your choice of dressing) and you go and find a table. A couple minutes after you've finished eating your salad, they come with your steak. This comes with garlic bread (very bland) and starch: they offer rice as well as various forms of potato, which I appreciate: the rice is plain yellow rice, hardly seasoned, with a few bits of onion.The steak is a bit better than that. The basic "famous steak" appears to be a New York cut, but at least cooked medium rare it's a lot juicier than I'm used to having, and with even a little gristle and fat, along with a bit of bone. I thought it was a good tasty steak, juicy and crusty, and it arrived and was finished with (you don't have to wait for anything when you're done) really quickly, which is great if time is short.

I'd give this place a 4.5. My friend and I decided to make a mental note to try this place out after we got lost for a bit. After finding our way, we grabbed our other friend and took a Lyft over to check the place out. You basically get in line, order your meal, they give you a number and you seat yourself.While my friends ordered a rib eye and country fried steak, my eyes battled with my stomach and had to make a compromise. My eyes wanted steak and my gut won with the tuna melt and fries...and a paloma.My food was great, I took half the tuna melt home for a midnight snack. I'm taking an educated guess that due to the lack of conversation in the beginning part of our meals, my friends enjoyed their food as well.If you're looking for a casual diner like atmosphere with friends, choose this place. Staff is friendly.

Ok I haven't been to tads steakhouse in ages; I think it's under new ownership. But always loved their steaks; so when I decided to stop by for a quick bite I had high hopes. They seemed to have moved to new location, that now has a bar inside that's nice touch. You no longer have your food made In front of you and tell chef how you want your steak like old times; you place your order at counter.Prices for food have definitely increased; I opted for Tads Steak and it was 30 dollars bit on pricey side. After placing my order I was given a buzzer and a number; sat that the bar where I was given my glass of wine. When my food came I was excited to dig in; but I wasn't impressed with the steak. It didn't have that smoky chargrilled taste that I remembered all the steaks having; it tasted like any steak I could make at home solid 6 in my opinion. The salad was decent so was the baked potato; the garlic bread didn't have the garlic taste I remember the bread having. It just tasted like grilled bread with butter added; again not bad but not what I once remembered it to taste like. Overall, I thought the food was solid 7 and a bit on the pricey side.

11.03.2024 - Dinner with friends.Every Sunday, I'm in downtown SF doing volunteer work and I would always pass by Tad's.Thinking this place is just another tourist trap spot, I've ignored it. Until one day, my girl friend told me about their wings. I could never pass up the chance to try some good chicken wings. So, I've put my personal thoughts aside and decided to try their wings. Sure enough, they didn't disappoint! Super crunchy, well seasoned and adding jalapeños on top was truly the icing on the cake. I love and only eat spicy food. Tad's wing hit the spot! The wings are a tad bit (no pun intended heh heh heh) on the pricey side, but it's totally worth it!I've also tried their ribeye (forgot to take a pictures) and it was pretty good too. They know how to season their meat and it was served a perfect medium. Since my volunteer work is from 2-8pm every Sunday, now I have a go-to spot for my dinner.

Recently came here over the Cambodia weekend. Me and my girlfriend stopped by for dinner. We ordered the two country fried steaks with baked potato French fries and salad . The food here is on point.Ambiance was very crowded and busy especially for a Saturday night crowd. The he only thing that disappointed me I tried ordering a water for this guy that fell and had a panic attack and I really wanted to check up on him and make sure he was okay.

Been going to Tad's for years back when it was on Powell Street. Although ownership has changed over the years, one thing never changes here and that is the steaks are always cooked with the same consistency and flavor every time and are moderately priced, especially during inflationary conditions that we are living in. The current owners and staff are always friendly and work hard and will give you some extras when you ask i.e. a little extra garlic butter or some sour cream. Tad's is so much better than your average steakhouse and look forward to coming back for years to come.

I'll be short. For $30 bucks in the city, it was just an ok steak, baked potato, salad and two slices of bread. No frills just meat, potatoes and bread. Steak is definitely on the thin side. They did cook it to my likings (medium).If you want to compare this place to somewhere you have been? This steak reminds me of good ol Cal Neva in Reno, Nevada. Cheap eats to fill the tank. That's it. The wife did enjoy her chicken club. Would I return? Yeah for a burger since this would be considered more of a diner.

I have been coming to Tads for a while now. All the food they provide has been consistently great for many years. The drinks menu is very reasonable price. The food is also great price. Their steak is always great. Customers service is good. Great place to come for sit down menu have a couple of drinks or take to go orders like I did. To go orders and sit down order are the same consistently quality of food.

It's not expensive, but it tastes worse than I thought. But considering the price, I think this is reasonable
