Hana NaOctober 10, 2012Only 3.5 stars on yelp?! Their savory roasted chicken is crisp and tender... Prob because it's roasted w/ bacon. YUM :) Skip the calamari! Must enjoy their unique 24-layer crepe and pain perdu. Nom :)
The flatiron steak with red wine butter and fries is perfect. The peppercorn sauce is a nice addition too. Make sure to check in to get a free brownie for dessert!
Kris Vera-PhillipsMay 26, 2013Try the Steak Frites - #kvpinmybelly : Yummy French bistro classic! Steak cooked medium rare. Crispy fries. The salad makes me feel healthy. Add wine.
Gilt CityMay 20, 2011Fan of scotch? Access to an extinct vintage is a rarity, but at Cafe des Amis, Gilt City members will have what may be the last chance to experience one of Glenrothes’s finest. Cheers!
AskMenJuly 26, 2010Sporting custom chandeliers, gas lamps & a zinc bar flown in from France, the interior is dressed to impress. Expect wine to flow freely in this ode to Paris & brasserie faves like steak and fries.
Earl WilliamsSeptember 28, 2014Must get the chocolate bouchons. The sole with lobster is a delightful dish.
Tavo BeltranMarch 19, 2014A very "parissienne" look in a trendy Street of San Francisco. Nice and hip, excellent wine selection
Tetyana SwanApril 29, 2014Forget everything else on the dessert menu, you want the Chocolate Bouchons, (mini brownie), it's *amazing*
Fiona SApril 30, 2011Check in for a free bouchon! What I got: perfect little warm dark chocolate cake slightly crusted on the edges, topped with cool chocolate expresso sauce.
Blair HelsingJanuary 10, 2011My wife and I had a fantastic New Year's Eve dinner here in the back room by the fireplace. Food, service, ambiance all tops.
Tasting TableJune 22, 2012Try the classic French veal stew, blanquette de veau, as a Sunday special: Read more
Ray YApril 21, 2013Happy Hour: 3–6pm, $1 oysters, $2.50 beers, charcuterie and cheese tastings. Marina.
Benjy WeinbergerJuly 31, 2011The roast chicken is delicious, and the Rossini burger is a contender for best burger in SF.
Loic LeMeurMarch 6, 2011Try the plateau de fruits de mer but tell them in France you don't but it in front of you but in the middle of the table.
Sarah BuhrJuly 28, 2013Check in and you might just get a special brownie. No, not that kind of a "special brownie".
Ryan RussellJuly 10, 2011The free brownie Bouchon ("cork" in French- which it's about equal to in size) was KILLER!
SFConciergeApril 16, 2011Happy Hour $1 oysters and great wine selection. Ask for Ted,EXCELLENT service.
DailyCandyDecember 9, 2010The blood-red back room at the bustling brasserie is perfect for a rendezvous over steak tartare. Read more- Gilt CityDecember 23, 2010The menu may reflect Parisian cuisine, but it’s driven by the seasonal local markets. The best of both worlds.
- Hey, Happy Hour is great! $1 Oysters, $5 Moscow Mules & $5 Pinot Blanc
robin eusebioSeptember 16, 2010omg, the 24 layer crepe cake. it wasn't my first choice, but our server said such good things about it...and he was right!!
- Loic LeMeurMarch 6, 2011Don't take the espresso it's awful. Tell them espresso is much better in France. Or get a nespresso machine!
ThaoLinhAugust 19, 2012Not only are they slow... after dinner when we asked to make change for the meter, they said they didn't have any. Really.
