"While the Cole Valley French-inspired restaurant is always swarmed for brunch, dinner is a calmer affair with a much shorter wait. If they can swing it, try to get a seat in the parklet or on the patio and order the french onion soup that comes with a thick bubbly layer of cheese and the country pork chop as an entree—the side of thyme potato gratin alone makes the dish worthwhile. As a bonus, there’s a kid-friendly portion of the menu with mac and cheese and mashed potatoes." - julia chen 1, lani conway, ricky rodriguez, patrick wong
