SoMa, San Francisco · restaurant
Plush banquettes, dark wood, and dim lighting give Marlowe the feel of a proper neighborhood bistro, the kind that has taken the burger seriously since 2010. The Marlowe Burger is the draw that keeps the room full, but the steak tartare crowned with a quail egg arrives as the sharper argument for staying longer. Deviled eggs, gougères, and brussels sprout chips keep the table from getting impatient between rounds.
Warm deviled egg with aged provolone, pickled jalapeño, and bacon.
Crispy shaved Brussels sprouts, a shareable starter and perennial crowd favorite
Hand-cut steak tartare topped with a quail egg, a sharp counterpoint to the menu
