I think they are all taxis in SF, Steve.

This was actually quite fun.

Is that the Mexican Restaurant next to the grocery store at Broderick/Fell?
― Alex in SF, Friday, 6 February 2009 16:54 (fifteen years ago) link
Yup. Went there last night.

"Yup. Went there last night."
Is it good? My dog got tied out in front there enough.

so I'm not so new to the bay area but I'm new to actually living in the city.
question: good indian food near upper haight?
― iatee, Friday, 6 February 2009 19:33 (fifteen years ago) link
also: cheap
― iatee, Friday, 6 February 2009 19:34 (fifteen years ago) link
Naan & Chutney on Haight/Fillmore is cheap. It's debatable how good it is.
― Alex in SF, Friday, 6 February 2009 19:39 (fifteen years ago) link
yeah I keep walking past that place and considering going in.
cheap is more important than good right now actually.
― iatee, Friday, 6 February 2009 19:41 (fifteen years ago) link
this place's deco is not much to look at, but it's tasty, cheap, the veggie options are good and the waiters take friendliness to levels of surrealism (they're good people). if that was my neighborhood I'd eat there a lot.

if you want cheap indian, go to the tenderloin.
it will def be better and cheaper than anything in the haight (nb: i do like n&c for what it is).
― (*゚ー゚)θ L(。・_・) °~ヾ(・ε・ *) (Steve Shasta), Friday, 6 February 2009 19:56 (fifteen years ago) link
what's good in the tenderloin? I usually pass through on my walk home anyway
― iatee, Friday, 6 February 2009 19:57 (fifteen years ago) link
there's a trio of restaurants around jones/o'farrell that i think are all great:
shalimarlahore karahichutney

awesome thanks
― iatee, Friday, 6 February 2009 20:02 (fifteen years ago) link
I've only been to Shalimar of those three and it's good, but not worth going out of your way for.
Steve, on a slightly higher end Indian tip, have you eaten at Dosa?

i like dosa but it's $$$. if you get out of the city, specifically the south bay (fremont esp.) you can get much better south indian.
― (*゚ー゚)θ L(。・_・) °~ヾ(・ε・ *) (Steve Shasta), Friday, 6 February 2009 20:05 (fifteen years ago) link
for $-$$
Dosa r0xxors but yeah not cheap. and no question there is better indian food outside of SF than within it. There's a chaat house in Berkeley that is amazing A+++ authentic stuff
― Courtney Love's Jew Loan Officer (Shakey Mo Collier), Friday, 6 February 2009 20:07 (fifteen years ago) link
I've never been to Fremont, but considering every Indian I've ever worked with has lived there I would assume the food is much better there.
― Alex in SF, Friday, 6 February 2009 20:09 (fifteen years ago) link
something to do after an A's game in 2012 I guess
― iatee, Friday, 6 February 2009 20:18 (fifteen years ago) link
Hahaha, there's that and every Indian restaurant I went to I was the only non-Indian there as well.
Speaking of outside SF... there was (is?) a KILLLLLLLLER buffet place in sunnyvale that i went to about 5-7 years ago.... they had SIX different rices for example. The buffet was about 50 yards long no kidding.
I always wanted to go back, they had mango lassi froyo... sigh...
― (*゚ー゚)θ L(。・_・) °~ヾ(・ε・ *) (Steve Shasta), Friday, 6 February 2009 20:19 (fifteen years ago) link
$8.95 for lunch. unbelievable deal.
okay, my coworker says it's called Sneha... but that it changed owners and isn't as good as it used to be.

if Mets win NL East this year Steve Shasta drives me to outlying eateries on my next visit
― Dr Morbius, Friday, 6 February 2009 20:22 (fifteen years ago) link
Hehe, if Phillies win, Morbsies takes me to Connecticut.
― (*゚ー゚)θ L(。・_・) °~ヾ(・ε・ *) (Steve Shasta), Friday, 6 February 2009 20:23 (fifteen years ago) link
Haha well you could take BART to Fremont. Not sure it's worth it to save a couple of bucks on a slightly better Indian meal though.
― Alex in SF, Friday, 6 February 2009 20:24 (fifteen years ago) link
I don't drive!
― Dr Morbius, Friday, 6 February 2009 20:24 (fifteen years ago) link
Shasta wants to be mailed to Connecticut, Waldo Jeffers-stylee.
― Alex in SF, Friday, 6 February 2009 20:27 (fifteen years ago) link
where do you want to go in CT, Steve?
― double bird strike (gabbneb), Friday, 6 February 2009 20:28 (fifteen years ago) link
yeah, i think it's a cuisine thing too...
SF is populated with TONS of West Indian/North Indian/Pakistani eateries...
People who prefer South Indian have less options and Fremont is like a haven for those palates.

okay new, more pressing question: I work on california and montgomery and need to get lunch right now! 10 bucks or under. not big on chinese.
― iatee, Friday, 6 February 2009 20:32 (fifteen years ago) link
do you like japanese curry?

call your order in because it can get pacccccccked with walk-ins.
― (*゚ー゚)θ L(。・_・) °~ヾ(・ε・ *) (Steve Shasta), Friday, 6 February 2009 20:35 (fifteen years ago) link
not really in the mood, but I will keep that place in mind for next week
― iatee, Friday, 6 February 2009 20:38 (fifteen years ago) link
iatee, there's one of those buffet style lunch places at teh corner of Pine and Montgomery that I rather quite like. It's called Julie's, right next to Jamba Juice.

i'm going to sf next weekend with my gf and we are going to the magnolia pub for starters. also: chez panisse.
― John Hyman (misspelled intentionally) (omar little), Friday, 6 February 2009 20:39 (fifteen years ago) link
They have a smattering of edible (by downtown standards) sushi, a good deal of Chinese stuff including char siu, usually some kind of steamed fish, potstickers, but they also have simple western things like potroast, roast turkey, brussels sprouts, asparagus, green beans, and also a nice salad bar.

omar, Magnolia is actually pretty decent these days. Find out what day they have their fried chicken special.
Oops, I guess it's only on Thursdays.

if you like decent fried chicken... farmer brown's has a sunday gospel brunch with AYCE fried chicken plus breakfast stuff (eggs, ham, bacon, grits, greens, beans, black eye peas) for $15. bottomless mimosas for $15 as well... *burp*

i'm going there for the beers on cask but will have some food as well. the menu looks interesting, at least.
― John Hyman (misspelled intentionally) (omar little), Friday, 6 February 2009 20:49 (fifteen years ago) link
I really liked Farmer Brown's.
― It is not enough to love mankind – you must be able to stand (Michael White), Friday, 6 February 2009 20:51 (fifteen years ago) link
Yeah. Not so special that I will eschew Little Chihuahua as my day-to-day local Mexican eatery but I'll definitely go back.
