Chez Maman East - San Francisco

I have a group of former colleagues that I consider a 2nd family and we try to go out and celebrate birthdays and special events together when we can. Chez Maman is always our go-to place and for good reason. The whole area is residential so parking isn't bad at all until you get later into the evening. It's super easy to get to right off Hwy 280. We've literally never had a bad meal or bad service there. The staff are always sincere and super nice. They don't take reservations which is the only thing I can complain about, but that's it. I love this place and the memories I've made there with my work fam will always be priceless to me.

Visited Chez Maman for a friend's birthday last weekend. I thought the food was fantastic! Requested my steak medium, and it was perfectly done. The food came out hot, and all the dipping sauces were delicious. The crème brûlée was incredible, probably the best I've ever had. Our server was attentive and knowledgeable. I would absolutely come back to this restaurant!

Cozy neighborhood french restaurant with some of the best french onion soup I've had. Definitely recommend the soups, tartare, and duck. The wait can be a bit long at times, but it's definitely worth it. The pork chop was my main dish, it had a delicious rich flavor without being too heavy.Food: 5/5

Second time here in a couple months. First time for brunch, this time for dinner. Seating is on a first come, first serve basis and they fill up quickly after opening. We were seated outside as our guest was running late. But the heaters outside are very powerful, so we were fine outside. The hostess Mary is the Bomb! Very attentive to our needs and even provided chairs for us to sit in while we waited for our guest. She did her best to hold a table for us inside, but the line dictated she had to give the table up. It was cool though. Service is steady and thoughtful. Always checking on us, but not overly so. Decent wine choices, my how the bottle price has gone through the roof $50. But it was a lovely choice. I may start returning to bringing my own if they allow it. Two guests shared the Beef Tartare which they loved. Those same guests had the muscles and sadly they were not impressed. We brought it to the attention of our waiter, and graciously they removed it from our bill. The fries that came with the muscles were only barely warm and not served with any sauces : I had the pork chop, which was cooked perfectly but the brussel sprouts were almost raw and hard to cut and chew. All this being said, we all do like this little gem and I will return. The chicken looked amazing, that will be my next order. Brunch is quite good. At the end our server brought us all a little after dinner port at no extra charge. They really do care about their guests and make every effort for you to have a good meal and a nice time.

A delightful, casual spot for a French dinner. Service was friendly, and our waiter was especially attentive. Both my wife and I settled for two identical appetizers--the French onion soup and escargot. Both lived up to our expectations and were ample for a meal. We skipped the entrees, although they looked delicious, and ordered chocolate mousse and berries crepe for dessert. Exceptional! We highly recommend it.
