Fois Gras

1. Chapeau!

Neighborhood: Outer Richmond

course selections would constitute an additional charge of up to $8, such as the seared fois gras on toasted brioche, paired with an aperitif, a rich and buttery way to start the meal. The spirit...

2. Gary Danko

Neighborhood: Fisherman's Wharf

definitely overhyped and extremely inconsistent.  some dishes were exellent--the seared fois gras appetizer was one of the best i've had except that they didn't properly clean or remove the stringy...

3. La Folie

Neighborhood: Russian Hill

even. The foi gras (a serving the size of a deck of cards) course was tasty, but honestly you could probably saute foi gras in Night Train with a burlap garnish and it would turn out well. The other...

4. Fleur De Lys

Neighborhood: Nob Hill

For the appetizer, I ordered the duo of fois gras but there was barely any fois gras. I felt cheated. For the main entree, my seabass was  extremely dry. I've never had such overdone seabass in my...

5. Isa

Neighborhood: Marina/Cow Hollow

Escargot

1. Restaurant…

Neighborhood: Inner Richmond

the escargot appetizer was extremely chewy and overcooked. The taste was there, but the escargot itself lacked the tenderness one usually enjoys.  The soup was delicious! I enjoyed tomato bisque with a crab cake...

2. Chouchou

Yes, the busboy was a standout that night.   Now on to the food.  The appetizers were excellent.  The escargot and mussels met all of our expectations stemmed from all the raves on Yelp...

3. Le Charm French…

Neighborhood: SOMA

(to die for) and escargot (they give you a decent amount, but I'd prefer mine with pesto sauce).  I normally get the filet mignon with caramelized onions covered in that brown sauce (don't remember...

4. La Bergerie…

Neighborhood: Inner Richmond

allow you to swap it.   I would recommend the veal, filet mignon, or rack of lamb. Escargot (for appetizers) was not bad too. The sauce that comes with the escargot is excellent with the free bread...

5. Jeanty At Jacks

Neighborhood: Financial District

My experience here was pleasant, though a touch stiff.  My girlfriend and I had the tomato soup, escargots, sweetbreads and bone marrow. We also had a 1/2 bottle of the Frederic Magnien Marsannay...
