I have been to The San Franciscan twice now. The first visit at lunch for a quick burger fix, and I enjoyed the Bleu Burger, mid-rare temp, juicy & touched with excellent fries and homemade slaw on the side. Squigged down about three ice teas, and then bounced back out into the Walnut Creek sunshine. The next visit (for dinner) I took some time to enjoy the ambiance, and I ordered the NY Steak I previously spotted on the menu. For appetizer I ordered the Ahi Tuna Poki, which as a native Nebraskan, I have come to love as part of my left coast lifestyle. The only thing that could have made the Poki more Authentic tasting would have been a beachfront view of Maui from my table. Next my steak, which again was cooked at a perfect medium rare (pink in the middle temp) and instead of rice or baked potato, I jumped on the steak fries with a side of ranch for dipping. I left The San Franciscan that night thinking about how much my Dad & Grandfather (were he still alive) would have loved this place, the owner, and the general vibe. For you steak lovers!!! Don't miss an opporrtunity to eat at my new favorite place in WC!
Pros: Outdoor patio, cute servers, GREAT DRINKS!
Cons: I live in Oakland
