Nonesuch

We go about once a year and another $50 a person isn't going to stop us.... It's a special occasion meal for us and we don't limit the price tag on our special occasions.

for sure, Sons and Daughters in SF will put a dent in your wallet especially if you have wine with dinner

We went last year, were planning on going this year and probably a couple of times in the year after that, all special occasions, but we eat at a lot of places that are sort of expensive anyway (spent $140 for both of us at Social Deck + Dining for our 28th anniversary this weekend), and there are plenty of other special occasion restaurants we need to try, so we've been once, and are just moving on...

YOu're catching an unusual amount of flak for just saying it's out of your range. It's not that big of a deal.

Yeah I've never even been because the price is too much for me, personally. Nothing wrong with it, I just would rather spend that kind of money on other things at the moment. Maybe some day it'll hold more appeal to me. I still enjoy hearing about the experience, though.

Press release:

NONESUCH

We are proud to announce new ownership at Nonesuch.

Under the guidance of Kelly Whitaker’s Id Est, the most decorated group for restaurant and sustainability awards in the United States, we will increase our focus on environmental impact while continuing to deliver a stellar dining experience led by General Manager and Partner Chad Luman and Chef Garrett Hare. Id Est is known for Michelin-starred restaurants in Denver, their James Beard Foundation Award Nomination for Outstanding Restaurateur, and their boundary-pushing team.



Starting in June, Nonesuch will offer two distinct experiences:

Nonesuch Chef’s Counter: an intimate 22-seat chef's tasting menu experience inspired by fields, farmers, and Oklahoma terroir. The menu is based on hyper-local sourcing, in-house grain milling, and vast fermentation practices.

The Den: an experimental, abbreviated six-seat experience inviting guests to be part of the research and development process. The menu will showcase dishes in the works by the Nonesuch culinary team. The Den also welcomes walk-in guests for bar snacks and cocktails, as well as visitors before or after their Nonesuch Chef’s Counter tasting menu experience.

I feel like this is the best thing of Nonesuch, Id Est is a fantastic group that has multiple Michelin Stars, they know this type of restaurant and will do a great job with them.

I saw the girls at Living Kitchen Farm drop a hint after their collab with nonesuch.... Which by the way the collab sold out in 4 seconds after seats went live.

[TheTravellers]

Interesting that the price per person is now $135-150, and the Den per person price is $85. Guess $175 per person wasn't sustainable...

I went two weeks ago after years of wanting and wishing to go, had a friend visit and that was enough to get me to book.

Blew my mind. Probably the best meal I have ever had. Literally every dish was astounding. The wine pairings were excellent, and the service was warm and efficient, literally no notes.

Highly recommend for at least one visit. Immediately top of the list on local dining for me.

We went to Nonesuch for our 25th anniversary, going to Grey Sweater tomorrow for our 30th, will try to remember to post. Had the non-alcoholic shrub pairing at Nonesuch, will have the craft cocktail pairing at Grey Sweater, so GS will be a bit better out of the gate.

So it pretty much boils down to Grey Sweater having a way better ambiance and atmosphere, but Nonesuch has better food. The cocktails at GS were pretty amazing, bartender asked us about our likes/dislikes/allergies, we had a pre- and post-dinner cocktail each, plus 5 that were paired to 2 courses each throughout the 10-course meal.

Nonesuch's timed seating (not sure if they do it that way any longer, we were there 3 years ago for wife's birthday, not our 25th anniversary) and high stools around the counter, with very little space between people just wasn't that great, compared to the standard table seating at GS (they do have about 20 counter seats with high chairs). We did have some amazing dishes at GS, but not consistently at the level that Nonesuch reached.

[Mantison]

I have not. Either will have to wait till my friend visits again, or find some better grade local friends willing to go try fine dining with me.

It appears the new owners of Nonesuch just won the James Beard Award for Best Restaurateur. That's a hell of an accomplishment and shows the kind of leadership we are getting.

[OkieinGeorgia]

The seating at Nonesuch is part of what makes it such an awesome experience. It's not a normal restaurant and the way the seating is you are in the middle of the experience. One of the best restaurant experiences I've ever had. Interested to see what the new ownership will mean for them.
