Relationship evidence

Identity revision 1, last changed

  • a declared affiliated site is a relationship the publisher states, not common ownership
  • a declared provider account (gift cards, hiring, ordering) is a service relationship, not an affiliation
  • a register party at the business's premises is a candidate operator until the Place and legal resolvers bind it
  • a licensed operator of the business's premises operates those locations; it is not thereby the brand's owner
  • an employer a job board names on the openings posts them; it is not thereby the owner or the operator
  • an app's store seller or developer publishes the app; neither is thereby the restaurant's owner
  • a menu that names a producer names it; it is not a supply contract, a volume or an exclusivity
  • a mail or DMARC service domain in DNS is a technical service relationship, not an affiliation
  • a group the site says it is part of is a public affiliation; the equity chain and buying rights are separate questions
  • an organization that posts the openings, sells the app or holds a program account shares services with the business; that is not affiliation or ownership

Stephen Mallory{- Beverage Director -}
  • As printed A Bay Area native, Stephen Mallory was first introduced to the restaurant industry at the age of 16 working the expo at the eponymous Black Angus.

Frequently Asked Questions Hours of Operation We are open Wednesday-Monday from 5pm to 11pm. Our kitchen is serving until 10pm with last call for food at 9:45pm, and our bar does last call at 10:30pm. We are closed on Tuesdays. Our "Golden Hour" is Sunday, Monday, Wednesday and Thursday from 5pm - 6:30pm at the bar only. Parking As we are located in the historic Golden Hill among residential housing, it is all street parking in our area. Guests are suggested to park on Broadway, 24th, 25th, and E street for easiest access to our restaurant. Please do not park in the nearby business lots surrounding us, as those businesses will call to tow. If you're having difficulty finding parking and are running late for your reservation, please feel free to give us a call at (619) 432-1014. Reservations How far in advanced can I book? We accept reservations up to 30 days in advance for parties of up to 10 guests. We accept inquiries for larger parties further in advance on a case by case basis. Reservations Deposits What is the purpose of the deposit and where does it go? We require a $10-$20 deposit per person for booking reservations. This is merely to hold your seat, and the full deposit, along with any fees, will be fully refunded to you upon checking in for your reservation. Also, if you cancel within at least 12 hours in advance, it will be automatically refunded to you as well. Upon refunded your deposit, you should receive a confirmation from Tock, and the refund will be reflected on your bank or credit card statement within 5-7 business days. 20% Service Fee and Where it goes A 20% service fee is applied to all checks. This service fee goes to both the front of house and back of house and is split amongst all staff who have served, cooked, and prepared your meal that evening. Tipping at the end is optional based on your experience and goes directly to your server or bartender. Lasty, this service fee is taxed according to CA law. Walk-Ins We accept walk-ins on a nightly basis on a first-come first-served basis. Walk-ins are most frequently seated at our beautiful 23-stool bar, where guests are able to enjoy dining from our full food and beverage menu. While our tables are typically booked with reservations, walk-ins may be seated at a table upon request if one is available. Wait-List (Online vs. Day Of) Guests are welcome to add themselves to the Online Waitlist through Tock if reservations are not available for the desired date/time/party size. Our team regularly checks this list several days ahead, and will reach out if a reservation becomes available. Our nightly waitlist is a separate list that walk-in guests can add themselves to in-person only, on a first-come first-serve basis, in the case that all of our walk-in seats have been filled for the evening. Once we get your information, our hosts will send you a text once your seats are ready. We will hold your seats for approximately 10 minutes before moving on to the next party. Large Parties (10+) & Private Events To book a reservation for a party of 11-18 guests, or to inquire about booking out a private party, please email hello@kingfishersd.com with details regarding possible dates/times, and estimated guest count, and our team will get back to you as soon as possible. Kid-Friendly? We understand that many children have just as elevated palates as their parents today, so we love hosting them! Please know, however, that we do not offer a children’s dinner menu, nor do we have high chairs and booster seats. If you are bringing the little ones, we suggest noting so on your reservation so we can make sure you are seated at a table that will be best suited for the entire family. Pet Policy Yes, we allow dogs on our patio and service dogs in both the dining room and patio. Corkage Policy Guests may bring up to two (2) 750ml bottles of wine when dining with us, and will be charged a $30/bottle corkage fee. Take-Out options? We unfortunately do not accept take-out orders, as our menu offerings are designed for dine-in only. Have additional questions? If you have additional questions, please email us at hello@kingfishersd.com
