Not sure why the low stars! Thank god I didn’t rely on it I went to virgin first since that was my goto for many years - realized Virgin started charging for drinks, coffee, any hot food minus a simple pasta. Used my wife’s priority pass to go to golden gate on 4th floor - food was solid, fruit options, one salad option, self pour wine and beer, hot water coffeee tea, soda. As a quick meal, clean tidy, comfy chairs, well lit - this is going to be my go to lounge going forward for a meal - drink stop

Surprisingly great lounge! Given the low Google rating, I was a bit skeptical, but it turned out to be a wonderful experience. The space is relatively small, but it wasn't crowded at all — when I arrived, I had the entire place to myself. They offer hot food that actually tastes good. I had the pasta with meatballs, and it was honestly just as delicious as what you'd get at a local SF cafe. Another big plus is the drink selection. Free spirits are rare in US airport lounges, but here you can actually pour yourself Jim Beam or vodka. They also have good French wine from Bordeaux and decent beer. Overall, a very solid lounge. I’ll definitely come back next time I’m flying through SFO!

I don’t think the low score was fair for this lounge. Eva Airlines use this lounge for their Gold card member. I’m very happy with the staff and the food and beverage options. Those staffs are friendly and polite, also very efficient. Hot food is hot and cold food and drinks are always nice and cold. They also replenish the buffet quickly! Only thing that I can think of for improvement is the chairs. Bit more comfortable sofa would be nice.

I don’t know what others are saying. They may have gotten here when things are busy. We were able to get in with PPs (4 of us). Decent food, not loud, I’m not sure what I can ask more

This is a very good lounge on the international terminal of SFO: atmosphere is inviting, food and drinks offerings are quite good with an option for live counter hot food and drinks are self service and good selection. Staff have a polite and service attitude which is quite in contrast to Virgin club just a floor up! Worth a visit! I wish they could add more vegetarian offerings!
