Sure, the chic, industrial décor is cool; the young, hip crowd is cool; the Mission-Potrero location is cool. But the rustic menu of contemporary American standbys and the attentive, informed staff do more than their part to warm up the place. Since its opening before the boom, Slow Club has maintained a devoted following for both dinner and weekend brunch, never wavering from delivering a well-done meal at an amazingly wallet-friendly price, despite a change in ownership and its share of chef changes. As the menu changes daily the kitchen's renditions of stand-bys may tweak slightly, such as an alluringly topped, grilled flatbread; earthy pastas; grilled salmon with Meyer lemon aioli; and parmesan-crusted pork roast. No reservations are accepted, so order up one of the special cocktail to sip while perusing the menu and don't forget to leave room for one of the casual, comfort-inspired desserts. |
