I highly recommend Chapeau! to anyone who is in San Francisco and loves food.
We headed down to the city from Napa Valley right after Thanksgiving and met 3 friends for dinner at Chapeau! (the exclamation point is in the name...not my expression).
If you are not familiar with SF, mapquest the location first as it won't be on your rental car agency map (it was not on ours). Plan to leave a little time to park in this residential, but crowded area.
The meal was delicious from "soup to nuts" and foie gras was in many dishes I started with the duck salad...only to be disappointed that I didn't order the warm brie on potato. Don't get me wrong, I loved the duck, but I really wanted my friend's brie. Big winners were filet mignon, pork and warm chocolate cakes to end the evening.
Meals can be ordered in 3 or 4 courses or a la carte if you have a dieter with you (not recommended as you will want to taste many things on the menu!).
