We wanted to eat at an old San Francisco style restaurant. This one was featured in The Maltese Falcon as I understand it. We ate on the first floor near the bar. Our booth was somewhat small but we didn’t mind. We got in it! Our waiter was attentive and helpful with making our choices. We had the specialty lamb chops and the filet mignon, both cooked to perfection. It was noisy - jazz music playing and people laughing and talking - which was just what we wanted. We felt like locals! Loved every minute of it!
