Love Chic's
I've been here many times. They have THE best Bloody Mary ever made. They're great both spicy and regular. They make a decent steak, and the flavors of all the dishes I've tried are perfectly melded together.
The fresh market crab is great as long as it's not overcooked. This is the downside to this restaurant; they have the tendency to overcook the shellfish. From crabs, to mussels & clams, to prawns and shrimp, the shellfish are often overdone and a bit rubbery. If they could just get that part down, I'd give them more than 4 stars.
I will continue to visit this place with each return to San Francisco, but I will also continue to find a place that can cook their shellfish just right AND blend their flavors perfectly.
The view is spectacular as it overlooks the bay and you'll always see seagulls flying around and you can hear the live music spilling in from outside.
The bartender is usually pretty well versed in his tasks of mixing a good drink. They have top shelf liquor; rare finds like Johnny Walker Blue Label and Patron Gran. It's a good place to eat.
