Reviews for The San Franciscan
We only show the 3 most relevant reviews to save you time.
Food: great. Server: wonderful. Hostess: needs less attitude Ambiance: it's an older place, but for what it lacks in flashiness and keeping with trends.. you have a place with genuinely good food without the frills. A place you can come with friends or family to have drinks, eat and watch the game on the television.
My first time at the San Franciscan on sepulveda near Crenshaw no reservations just walk-ins at the front desk at the rear entrance parking is kind of a problem. But the food is really great and worth it they have outdoor seating too they have a lounge bar inside and they are pretty pretty busy I think it's also a meat ???? market to meet people???? I hear the prime rib is really great that's what my wife and I got they say the prime rib is like butter it melts in your mouth. First they bring you some sourdough bread to the table then they ask you if you want soup or salad. Then they bring you that delicious entree of food the waiters and waitress were very polite.... My wife got the prime rib medium rare And I got mine rare or raw!! It comes with two kinds of horseradish creamy or regular it'll open up your nose lol. It's a family ran business next time I go I'll have to check out the menu for the other delicious wonderful food they offer so if you're really hungry and want to mee
I've been to this restaurant many times over the years. If you want the best Prime Rib, this is your to go place! I've had their other steaks which were simply the best. The Franciscan staff are great, never had any bad experiences there. This place is a combination of a bar and restaurant and a little dated, but I'm there for the prime rib. The price and value is pretty good. Parking: Parking is adjacent to the restaurant but fills up quickly.
