Chapeau in San Francisco

The bread was fresh and with a good crunch. Escargot was hot with lots of garlic and basil - great for bread dipping. The salmon trio looked cute but nothing special. The pork tenderloin was moist and tender. The charred cauliflower was tasty but the risotto was soft but the flavor was just ok. The French toast with caramel ice cream parred well and the chocolate lava cake with vanilla oozed out. Excellent service. The cook greeted us and the workers filled out hot water cups and wine. $35 for wine corkage fee.

It is our first time here. We were looking for some place near us to have dinner together for our anniversary. I have lots to say about this place!AppetizerThey are both great! We ordered Escargot and Salmon Trio for our appetizer and they both are so good! For me, personally, the escargot is a little too salty but when it paired with the bread, it was really good! And the bus boy recommended us to pair them and they taste so good together! Thank to him :)) For Salmon Trio, my husband and I agreed on that it tastes okay but not so incredibly good.EntreeHalibut was soooooo good! It is the only one dish I would come back for. Fillet Mignon is somewhat salty but I don’t eat beef, so I can’t really comment on this but my husband is a meat eater and he said it wasn’t a wow for him but it was fine :)DessertCrème brûlée is good but maybe slightly too sweet for me but I think most people would like this one :)French toast is so good!!! The toast was soft inside and crispy on the outside and it was topped with salted caramel ice cream which is so rich in cream and so tasty!Here is what I was expecting; The serviceOur server last night, 11/04, was not really good and we were quite disappointed. He asked the tables around us how everything was doing but he skipped our table every time, every single time. He kinda looked down on us a little too. So, it is very unpleasant and sad to see such good restaurant in our neighborhood being not as friendly as it should be like this. The hostess is great! The moment we stepped into the restaurant, we were impressed by him. He was so friendly and warm welcoming us. I forgot to take his name but he was awesome! The bus boy was actually our 5 stars last night, his name is Carlos, he is great and super awesome!!!! He was the one who recommended us to try the bread with the escargot sauce while our server didn’t really care about us. I used to work in food and beverage industry for many years and still working in customer service industry, I think Carlos should actually be our server not the other. And we decided to give good tips where we really want our tips to be for Carlos and the hostess who gave us such a great service. I just don’t think our server deserved our tips at all.So, two stars off from the service point for what I expected from our server and really came out disappointed. Those good stars were for service indeed that we received from Carlos and the hostess. Thank to both for making our night last night so great 🤗🙏🏻

A family atmosphere with exquisite customer service. The food was extraordinary. The first restaurant I have been to with alcohol-free cocktails.French food and the host Phillipe, oh la la. The man knows how to make patrons feel like family. If you are in San Francisco, you need to visit Chapeau!We give them an A. Phillipe coup De Chapeau!

Chapeau provides a marvelous dining experience. From the excellent service to the pleasant atmosphere (no loud music) to the fabulous food - I cant wait to return. It is worth every penny.

This French restaurant is a true culinary haven. The service was impeccable, with a knowledgeable and friendly staff who made us feel right at home. The food was a gastronomic delight - from escargot to crème brûlée, each dish was a masterpiece. The ambiance exuded a charming, old-world French charm, and the wine selection was outstanding. I left with a full belly and a happy heart.

Came to celebrate our anniversary here on a Sunday night. The waitstaff was super friendly and attentive, I can’t say enough good things about how great the staff was. Unfortunately the food was just ok. We order oysters and the 3 course meal. The escargot and the salmon trio were good, though nothing stood out as amazing. The fresh bread was great. The crust was so crunchy and the inside was steamy and fluffy.We paid extra for the filet, which was cooked perfectly medium rare. Unfortunately the duck confer cassoulet was dry and not very flavorful. Desserts were good but you can’t really go wrong with crème brûlée.For $65, the 3 course was definitely worth it. I would come back here again if I’m ever in the mood for French food.

Delicious Dinner, fantastic service and wonderful wine. Order the special of its available, we had the Ribeye for two and it was incredible!

We had a lovely experience in this beautiful and quaint french restaurant. We had the 3 course dinner with wine. The food was excellent. We had onion soup, fresh beet salad, mushroom risotto, duck confit, salmon and an array of delicious desserts. The duck came on a bed of cannelloni beans and it was delicious. Everything was well prepared and delicious. The main chef also met us at the end of the evening. We loved this cosy restaurant and are looking forward to going back again. The only downside was finding parking which took more time than expected.

One of my favourite restaurants in San Francisco! The owner always greets every guest with a warm welcome. The food is beautifully presented and delicious! We had the trio of salmon, escargots, roared duck breast, bacon wrapped pork tenderloin, basil Napoleon, and profiteroles...all were amazing! They also have a great wine list and friendly service.

Food is out of this world, every dish was unique and perfectly cooked. I wish they would gave some options for kids as well. Too dark, interior needs some updates. But for foodies this place is a paradise!
