A couple enjoying each others company tucked into a banquette late in the evening…a group of girlfriends people-watching from the sidewalk tables over brunch…two neighbors stopping by to grab lunch at the bar. These people all have one thing in common as they enjoy a meal here on Fillmore Street in Pacific Heights- Chouquet's. Whether inside our dining room or outside under the heated protection of our large awning, diners come to Chouquet’s to enjoy fresh, seasonal French bistro fare in a casual yet refined environment. Join us for lunch, brunch, or dinner and let us satisfy you with signature dishes such as our boeuf bourguignon, duck confit, onion soup or with bistro classics such as steak frites, moules marinière, and our famous crème brûlée for dessert.

    Service was professional and staff was friendly including the cooks. I ordered the red snapper in spicy tomato sauce which was fresh and tender and also a generous portion. However. I would’ve preferred a smaller portion with 2 different sides to choose from. My husband ordered the tortellini and it was delicious. It was baked in the oven and the plate was hot. It was a great neighborhood dining experience. Will go back.

    I rarely feel compelled to write a review, but I came in with my 4-month-old daughter and Mark went above and beyond to make us feel welcomed. The food was also amazing, but we will come back for the service alone!

    Florio is a fabulous neighborhood restaurant. Great food,great service, and atmosphere that doesn’t stop, all in a very nice, casual setting. Felipe was a wonderful waiter, and the bartender knows how to make the perfect drink. You cannot go wrong here. You will drink well, dine well, and end up having conversations that bring you into the fold of the neighborhood. Really, we keep going back again and again.
