Our family friend recommended this restaurant to us. Located on Powell street where the cable car starts and runs through those famous steep roads. It is a bistro so the price was average but the food but totally worth it for this price.
Bruschetta: fava pesto, duck prosciutto, pecorino, mint, pine nuts
The first time I tried duck prosciutto. It was not too thin. It was chewy and had a very strong duck flavor. The pesto and pine nut gave the bruschetta a nutty twist. It was a great combination.
Moules Frites:PEI mussels, leeks, pastis
Seafood is always a good choice when you are near the bay area. The mussels were big and juicy. The pastis added tons of flavor and the soup was addictive. This also comes with pomme frites. It was skinny and freshly made fries that was crispy and not oily at all. A new twist of combination which was delicious
Once again, you will never be wrong by picking the pasta with seafood. The clams tasted fresh from the sea and the chilies spiced it up. This was a simple dish but each aspect of it was perfectly done. The pasta was al dente, the clams were fresh and the white wine brought out that freshness.
Delicious.
Potato Gnocchi: field mushrooms, tuscan kale, spring onions, garrotxa cheese
I am a fan of gnocchi and mushrooms therefore this dish is perfect for me. These gnocchi are big and the smell of mushrooms rushed in all your pores when it arrived. Kale is also the healthiest vegetables, low calaries and highly nutritional. It was a little heavy but nothing could stop me from cleaning this plate.
This restaurant is always packed so definitely make a reservation beforehand. It is a perfect restaurant for a date or just a nice dinner with your family. Everyone was nice and the food was worth it for this price. Highly recommended.
