Description

This small chain has parlayed a simple and admirable formula - interesting, seasonal, eclectic food, well-prepared and affordable - into four busy, useful restaurants. The original location is always hopping, and attracts a young crowd.

    Bouncer Takes Refuge From Baseball Hordes at Chow

    The bar at Chow is my own private Idaho. It also offers many escape hatches from my little fiefdom in the form of the F, the J, various buses, and the underground Muni station at Church. Just like gangsters never sit with their back to the door,... More »

    Simple Comfort Food Satisfies at Chow Brunch

    Tattoo You

    It might just be me, but it seemed everyone was saying "Obama" when I walked past them on the street this week. The day after the election, I swear that anyone I overheard on a cellphone, no matter the language — Spanish, Vietnamese, Greek —... More »

Chow, a friendly diner-hangout renowned for its farm-freshvictuals, serves an outstanding example of the genre ($7.50 small,$13.25 large). Filets of... More »

  • 2006 | Best Homey Desserts

    The great American dessert has its definitive rendition at Chow, a place that takes the fine art of pie-making seriously. To wit: thick, yielding chunks of apple touched with just the right amount of cinnamon; a top and bottom crust of buttery pastry barely enclosing the cornucopia of luscious fruit; a healthy dollop of cool whipped cream with a drizzle of thick, warm, golden caramel for textural and gustatory contrast. In a word -- perfection. Chow, a friendly old-mahogany spot with a... More »
