Chez Maman East - San Francisco

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

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.

Amazingly delicious!!! We want you on the Peninsula. Please!!!! A fantastic French neighborhood diner. The food reminds us of dining in the French countryside. We stared with a warm goat cheese salad; mildly peppery and the subtle crunchy creaminess of the fried goat cheese. I had the chicken and subbed Brussel sprouts for the mashed potatoes. The chicken was fall apart tender and juicy and the Brussel sprouts were crispy and tender inside. The Apple tart was a puff pastry with chunks of apple; I would have liked razor thin slices of apple but the chunks were more substantial. My molten chocolate cake was very molten and chocolaty.I want to try the mussels and duck next time. There is too much on the menu to try. I wish they also had a cassoulet.Mountain View would be perfect for your next restaurant.

This place is really small – it has about 8 bar stools, 2 tables indoors, and a few outdoor seats if the weather is nice. However, if you're lucky enough to snag a seat, the food is delicious and reasonably priced. The bar seating is especially enjoyable because you can watch the kitchen as they prepare your meal. I highly recommend the arugula salad with baked goat cheese; it was especially tasty!

I'm really disappointed that I don't live near Chez Maman anymore. They serve the most indulgent hamburger I've ever tasted.
