Maverick - San Francisco

This place opened up quite some time ago to some excellent reviews and I finally got a chance to check it out this past weekend. All in all, it was very solid. The atmopshere is basically the same as any of those small San Francisco restaurants: a little cramped, trendy type of look, large windows to let you see outside…not bad. Service was very solid, I had no complaints. I’d read reviews where some people didn’t like how they wasted time priming the wine glasses, but I thought it was neat. The appetizers in general were good, and the desserts were solid as well. However, nothing was overly exceptional. What’s more remarkable are their entrees. Several people in my group got the red snapper which was very good. I also tried the flat iron steak, which was very solid, and I had a pork chop with peppers which was superb. The entrees were definitely the highlight of the meal. All in all, I would definitely recommend going.
