Mijoté - SF Mission

sign

Mijoté is in the old Sasaki space. They didn’t change the bar much if at all though they added more seats. They also added tables all around so maybe three or four times as many covers.

wine_list

Note the whiteboard for tracking which parties have been served what. I’ve never seen that before. Makes sense given the prix-fixe model.

amuse

Amuse: cold carrot soup. The photo makes it look bigger than the actual little ramekin with just a few sips.

bread

Josey Baker bread

oysters

Never had anything like that before: garlic cream and rhubarb. Delicious.

tartare

Delicate as steak tartare goes. Knife-cut, not ground.

sole

Chanterelles with the sole was a great touch. Lovely sauce. The plate was clean when I was done.

Note the fancy 9.47 knife. Didn’t need anything so sharp, the octopus was tender as can be, but it has a very nice balance…

plating

They brought smoking pans out from the kitchen and put the plates together in a bit of assembly-line style. Fast and efficient for prix-fixe.

check

Great meal. If I’d known how much food there would be I would have skipped the octopus. Note that the total was $287.44 since I pre-paid $82 for the prix-fixe.

I’ll be back soon.
