Acme Chophouse
$$$$, Steak, SoMa
Fodor's Review:
Dine here and you'll agree that cows shouldn't eat corn. Grass-fed beef, served up as a filet mignon and tartare, is the specialty at this old-style chophouse next door to the Giants baseball park. The kitchen stocks only naturally-raised local meats and poultry, including a 22-ounce rib eye and a double-cut pork chop that's sized to satisfy a sumo wrestler. All the familiar chophouse sides -- creamed spinach, onion rings, scalloped potatoes -- will keep traditionalists smiling. The setting is suitably casual, with lots of wood; TV monitors in the bar area mean no inning is missed. The lunch menu is more casual, with burgers, a crab salad, and a pastrami on rye in addition to the signature steaks.

I only went here once and will never again. On the very bottom of the steak food chain. Not quite sizzler but... would expect a lot more!A Chop House With No Baked Potato???

We had a reservation for 6 of us on a Sunday night at 8 p.m. We brought in our own wine - one being a bottle of Champaign that needed to be chilled along with a Chardonnay. We were seated and waited 10 minutes for anyone acknowledged us. We requested wine buckets and had to wait 10 minutes before anyone came around again. We again requested wine buckets. They finally arrived after we had been seated at least 15 minutes. The food was decent - not exceptional; they were out of 3 items on the menu. I must say this is the first chop house I've been to that doesn't offer a baked potato. Our waitress really didn't want to be at work that night obviously. Her service and attitude was so bad I had a hard time leaving a 15% tip, and I normally leave at LEAST 20%. Won't go there again. It may be a great place for the ballpark crowd but certainly not for when there isn't a game.
