They get 2 stars.

2/5 by Nadav G. on 03/24/2022

One for each of the hairs found in our food...We went for early dinner on March 12.Ordered the scallops starter which were super salty. We did not eat them.Roasted chicken thighs were on the menu that day. We enjoyed them, until my wife found a thick Black hair (with follicle) on the piece she just picked up from the serving plate. OK, happens. We called the server and brought it to his attention. He picked up the hair and examined it, and once established that it was indeed a curly black hair that could only come from a beard or... (you know where else) offered to re-make our dish. By that point, we were more than halfway done with it so we declined.The dessert cheese plate came next, where on one of the cheese pieces we found... You guessed it; Another hair! Gross!!!We called the server again and brought it up to his attention.He was being kind of defensive and said things like "This has never happened before" and "That's a weird coincidence to find two hairs in two dishes" almost making us feel like assholes that "plant" hairs in their food.My wife who has worked in high end restaurant kitchens in the past told the waiter that they should really check what's going on in the back, and if someone has a beard they should wear beard guards as per health department regulations.The server assured us that there is no one with a beard in the back, and if there is someone with a beard they do wear beard guards.We ordered coffee (which was super bitter) and dessert and asked for the check.The server was "kind" enough to comp us the horrible coffee and also took off the chicken liver toast we ordered as a supplement starter.Our car happened to be parked in the back, right in front of the back door which has a big window that allows you to look straight into the kitchen.As we were getting into the car, we counted not one, not two, not three... but FIVE guys with beards working in the kitchen, including the guy expediting the dishes who had a thick long beard.Mind you, the server just assured us a few minutes prior that NO ONE in the back has a beard, and if they do they all wear beard guard. Total lie obviously!Bottom line, don't make your customers feel like assholes when you are at fault.Also, when something is wrong with a dish, and you want to take something off the bill, you take off THAT dish, not a cheaper alternative...Will not be returning to this place.

did they run out of butter?

This was my 3rd visit for Ad Hoc and prob 20th visit to a Keller establishment, to say I am familiar and obsessed with everything he has ever made is an understatement.
He has made me fall in love with ingredients that I refuse to try like salmon, leeks, green tea, cloudy mash potatoes...list goes on

this trip very diff.
Salad - We had a Meyer Lemon Salad the night before so this was the 2nd Meyer lemon salad for The Weeknd. Ad hoc version was overdressed to the point that our teeth were cringing. We had to send it back and even then it wasn't remarkable, strike 1
Main Course - Crispy Chicken skin thighs <- very crispy and dry and w fennels which were just blahhh. nothing to rem. My husband literally asked me to eat his share. I wish they took a note from their fried chicken recipe
Cheese Course - Honey, Brie and Almonds. things I prob can pull out of my fridge this min. Last trip we had a thoughtful collection of diff cheeses, fruits and crackers things I wouldn't have access in a 1000 yr in whole foods. this was super off the shelf.
FINALLY chocolate cake <- Thats it. we both ate half and with our disappointment so far in the meal just walked away. I rem a yummy dessert w bon bon on our last visit. but this was something I prob could have to-go from Bouchon or Paris baguette, prob something more decadent.

I dont know what happened but it kinda ruined our anniversary dinner.
service was 5STARS and they really took care of us like always..
But something was up with the kitchen and we both have been pushing the leftover on to the other & yeah def didnt get the add on because from the getgo we were so taken back.

😍

Absolutely spectacular food at no frills atmosphere.

5/5 by Albert S. on 03/09/2022

The service was solid throughout. Our bartender, Vincent, was helpful with the menu (add on options) and drink choices! The most famous signature fried chicken was the best, and the pork was just so-so.The cheese plate was disappointingly shabby. Their bread was nice to say they came from Bouchon Bakery, a famous Napa bakery. We were absolutely stuffed when we left. Will be back next time we visit Napa!!!

🤢

We were there on Saturday.

2/5 by L W. on 03/06/2022

The entrees (braised beef) and chicken were excellent. One star for each entree... unfortunately the salad was not impressive, the sheep cheese was difficult to eat since it was so salty without a toast or cracker. Although the grape was good. The dessert was sad and disappointing...It tasted like dry leftover Christmas fruit cake. This was my second time at Ad Hoc and wished it was a better experience.

😍

We came here for lunch before we started wine tasting.

5/5 by Mary H. on 03/05/2022

What a great start for our day! Meals were served family style so we weren't really sure what portions would be like for 2 of us. *Minestrone soup (starter) it's a big bowl of soup, tasty. It could be a meal of its own. *Grilled tri-tip just melts in your mouth. Seasoned well and so tender. *Garlic polenta (side) delicious, but I love polenta. So if your a fan you will love it. My husband doesn't eat polenta :/*Broccolini (side) was good we both finished it*Fried chicken (add on) we weren't sure to get it... too much food but we're so happy we did! It was delicious. It was moist inside and crisp on the outside. My husband said the breast was a little dry compared to the dark meat. *lemon ricotta cake slice, the perfect amount of sweet to end our meal.We had great attentive service and the food was delicious. We would definitely return.

5/5 by Karen r. on 03/04/2022

LOVE this place! Yes, it's crazy difficult to get a reservation (according to someone else who is not me who made the reservation) but so worth it!! It's a set menu but fortunately everything is phenomenal. We had a salad, teriyaki chicken, got the walnut shrimp supplement, and yum dessert. Definitely come with an appetite!!

I cannot describe the wonderful time we had last night at

5/5 by blanca g. on 03/04/2022

I cannot describe the wonderful time we had last night at Ad Hoc. Our first time here, we arrived with two small children in tow, and everyone was so kind to us. We had the additions, including the caviar. A delicious green salad with smoked chicken, the truffle Mac and cheese, fresh veggies, and to die for pork chops. Leftovers were just as good the next day

🙂

We made reservations like a month prior.

4/5 by Alejandra D. on 03/02/2022

I'm so glad I'd made them for indoors because this night was chilly for sure. They did have heaters outside though.It is a pre-set 4 course menu, family style. I was incredibly disappointed that we could not add-on the famous fried chicken I'd heard so much about. Our waitress was kind and let me down gently. She let us know that they only serve it during lunch time on Mon & Fri. sad. The QR scanner for drinks did not work for my husband and I so we couldn't see their drink menu. I asked if they had a hardcopy menu but waitress said no. I told her about the QR not working for us and she pulled it up on her phone but also, I don't know if she just wanted to keep a distance but she was suggesting stuff off the menu to me and asking what I liked. It just seemed complicated so I just ordered 2 iced teas. 1st- course was a Garden kale salad with 2 croutons. lol. The parmesan salad dressing was delicious, and I found a new love for kale. 2nd-course, Santa Maria grilled Tri-tip, potato darphin, and roasted brussels sprouts. The darphin was like a potato patty shaped into a mini Rubik's cube. Our tri-tip came out and looked delicious but it was at room temp :( and I hesitated about sending it back but I did. Our waitress apologized and took it away. While we were waiting, a gentleman in a suit came up to our table (I think the manager) and he said they'd be bringing out a new one for us. He asked if we were celebrating anything and I said, my husband's birthday. he could get us anything, we said no thanks. We just wanted our food. Then this guy came over to us, almost running with this new tray of tri-tip. The portions looked a LOT bigger than the last one we had and it was much better. They also brought us another serving of the potato darphin AND more brussel sprouts. I was shocked. That to me, is a sign of really great service and they care about their customers. 3rd course, Estero Gold Cheese! it came with a rhubarb sauce and toasted marcona almonds. The cheese reminded me of a parmesan. The sauce was sweet and complimented the cheese and the almonds well. SO GOOD! 4th course. Chocolate tart with chocolate sauce, pistachio mousse, and pistachio crumbl. I'm not a big chocolate person but this was absolutely divine and so happy that we each got one, and didn't have to share :) I'm still dreaming about this chocolate tart and hope we meet again. The table next to us a few feet over was ahead of us in the dinner and were celebrating a birthday, per the candle on their chocolate tart. Our waitress was also their waitress and she brought them some packaged cookies. The couple had a surprised reaction, followed by happiness so that told me that it was likely a gift for the birthday person.At the end of our dinner, I asked her if the cookies were part of the dinner. She said no. I then told her "Oh, because it's also my husband's birthday and I noticed you brought them cookies" I should've said to her at the beginning that we were celebrating a birthday but she also didn't ask us if we were celebrating anything. She brought us some cookies though for both of us. She apologized and said had she known it was my husband's birthday, she would've brought a candle for him too. I said, Oh well I told the manager guy when he came over and I just thought he would've told you.Lesson learned, never assume. Overall, I would come back again and hope to try their fried chicken and maybe a cocktail, if the QR works for me.

Come hungry! We ordered for two and had enough food to feed

5/5 by Katie D. on 03/01/2022

Come hungry! We ordered for two and had enough food to feed an entire family. The menu is prix fixe with the chicken as an add-on on the Sunday we went. Delicious food, the chicken is spicy and the ribs fall off the bone. Yum! The butterscotch's sauce for the sundae was amazing!

🤮

The food was horrible - beef stew was salty and looked like

1/5 by Wendelyn W. on 03/01/2022

The food was horrible - beef stew was salty and looked like dog food. Very overpriced and NO selections. No ambiance sterile and the waiter sucked and they were cleaning up as we were eating. Totally in unprofessional - wish I could get my money back.

This restaurant NEVER picks up their phone, whether it's to ask a question or change an online pick up order. I have no idea what their food tastes like because their customer service is already terrible!

Despite a strong start, with the caviar add-on and roasted

2/5 by Hip M. on 02/26/2022

Despite a strong start, with the caviar add-on and roasted chicken, the meal torpedoed from there with a dry lamb, inedible plastic-like cheese course and a overthought cheesecake drowning in a piña colada jam. In addition, the bartender couldn't create a worse cocktail than the grapefruit mezcal paloma which was so terrible we didn't have more than one sip and the service was so lackluster that the waiter didn't even notice that it was untouched. The entourage of waitstaff was unable to pace the meal properly, leaving us feeling forgotten between most courses and then rudely rushed as the check was delivered with the dessert. All in all, a less than mediocre meal for what is expected to be at least a serviceable standby.

Working on your bid?

Question from DemurePain59 (10/01/2021 1:24 pm)

Best Answer Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.

Process after bid is accepted.

Question from EvocativeFold67 (09/17/2021 8:11 pm)

Best Answer Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.

Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from?

Question from ColorfulRod45 (07/13/2021 3:55 pm)

Best Answer Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.

What happens if my bid expires unanswered?

Question from FluffyStar64 (07/08/2021 5:55 pm)

Best Answer Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.

A couple concerns about how this platform works

Question from DeliberateMinute61 (01/20/2022 3:47 pm)

It's fine if the sellers are just individuals that can't use the reservation. But just curious: 1. What's preventing people from creating lots of email accounts and write a script to book all the reservations FOR FREE then resale it here? 2. Since restaurants can be partners, can they benefit from the bidding? If so wouldn't this just be ridiculous? So a restaurant can sell reservations just like selling a ticket? And customers not only need to pay for the reservation also need to pay for the meal?

Question from PrecociousSociety12 (12/19/2021 6:10 am)

Best Answer Thanks for the question! Yes it is completely normal! Once you place your bid, all sellers with a connection to the venue will start to work on fulfilling your desired time and date of the reservation. This process can be instant or may take a few days as most locations are either fully booked or hard to get! Stay tuned!

Transfer funds to payment method

Question from HolisticQuestion30 (10/21/2021 7:44 pm)

Best Answer Hey @HolisticQuestion30, whenever a bid expires, can't be filled or is cancelled by you, your funds are deposited in your AppointmentTrader Main Account in real time so you can use them for another bid instantly and don't have to carry multiple authorizations on your credit card for a number of days. You can access the funds with the credit card number that is shown next to your main account (labeled 'Show Card Number'). The real-time access is also true for any funds you earn from selling or reselling a reservation. You can use this card-number at any place online that accepts credit cards. (Currently limited to USD, multi currency support is planned.) AT is currently working on implementing a push-to-debit function, if you would like funds sent to your bank account before this feature is live, please email support [AT] appointmenttrader.com The team is usually very responsive and happy to assist with bridging any tech gap with their service :-)
