Bobo's

The number of Venetian jester-themed steakhouses in SF is, um, one. But aside from the somewhat-kitschy, somewhat-charming allure of masks on the walls, jesters on the plates, and the life-sized clown doll hanging by the front, the steak and crab at this Marina spot also happens to be pretty good. Once you slide into your cushioned booth, the move is to go in on a ton of sides—the mac and cheese, “bacon slab,” and bread service are highlights, and you can skip the runny mashed potatoes—and then pick the beef plate of your choosing. If you’re too distracted tallying jesters to decide (we lost count at 25), go with the filet mignon, which is crisp-edged and tender. And in case you’re driving, get excited for the dedicated (and free) Bobo’s parking lot.
