Jardiniere
Address: 300 Grove Street, San Francisco, CA 94102 (Map)
Jardiniere exudes the sultry decadence of a 1920’s era speakeasy. Pat Kuleto’s décor is the height of opulence, with marble and mahogany accents illuminated by warm, amber lighting and cloaked in lush velvet drapes that seem to seclude the restaurant’s revelry from the outside world. With an inverted champagne glass dome, and champagne buckets adorning the Art Deco-style balcony railings, Jardiniere drips with bubbly excess. Chef and co-owner Traci Des Jardins’s French and California-inspired menu is as improvisational and lavish as the Jazz-era décor, changing regularly according to the season and the chef’s own culinary whims. Nightly live jazz completes the stylish ambiance, adding to an atmosphere that is both nostalgically classic and unfailingly hip.
