San Francisco Restaurants

One Market

One Market Review

A giant among American chefs, Bradley Ogden runs an upscale mini-restaurant chain that stretches from Marin County to San Diego. This large space with a bay view and a grown-up ambience is his well-known San Francisco outpost. (He also boasts a steak house in the downtown Westfield Centre.) The two-tier dining room seats 170—many of them suits brokering deals—and serves a seasonal, wonderfully homey yet refined menu that might include tender bacon-wrapped pork tenderloin with dandelion greens, olive oil-poached black cod, and roasted Liberty Farms duck breast and leg confit. Folks who want only a small sweet to finish can choose from a half dozen mini-desserts, such as chocolate toffee almond cake, a mint chip ice-cream bar, or butterscotch pudding. The wine list includes the best California labels, many by the glass. Hearty appetites will appreciate the three-course market menu for just $39. Business types on a budget can opt for the two-course lunch for $22.50.

    Eating at the Chef's Table in the kitchen of One Market was one of the best dining adventures we have ever had. We were treated like royalty in the kitchen corner table. Able to watch everything that went on and have the chef of each course of our meal sit for a few minutes to explain his particular cooking style. We were then invited to put on our chef's coats and help prepare the final entree. A real treat for any foody. Requires 6 diners to reserve the Chef's Table. Absolutely worth organizing a small group.

    food was enjoyable but not at san francisco's best; service was uneven with a forgetful waiter.
