BTW, we really like the Delancey Street Restaurant's dining room. Large, relaxed, comfy. With enough carpeting and open space to make conversation easy. > Bistro Clovis Good food. Very quiet. Few patrons. Should have more business. Try Metro Cafe on Divisadero (great atmosphere, excellent food a cut or two above bistro cooking, and great prices especially the prix fixe), or Hyde Street Bistro, or Baker Street Bistro (way outside the corridor). > Cafe de la Presse (dining room) More of a cafe. The dining room is usually crowded. Limited menu but does have bistro food. > Helmand Wonderful. Always liked it. Place we go to for special celebrations such as birthdays. > House Noisy, tight space. Hard to get into. Excellent fusion cooking if you like that sort of thing. We do prefer it to the House on 9th Avenue. > Le Charm Wonderful. Reasonable prices. Reserve ahead. A special place for dates.
