Marlowe's is a great neighborhood spot with delicious burgers & a wide beer selection . But one treat they are known for are Brussels sprout chips—they'll turn any veggie hater into a veggie lover! Read more
Excellent brunch choice - sat at the bar and enjoyed the classic bloody called the Butcher with the Mushroom Arugula on Polenta with shaved parmesan - highly recommend. Exceptional service.
Marlowe's new home features cocktails with fun names like The Bull and The Sow, not to mention The Grindr, which we're sure will inspire a few awkward hookups when consumed in large enough quantities. Read more
Puccio's mix of beef with a bit of ground lamb in the patty, and the combination of cheddar cheese , bacon , and a horseradish aioli make the Marlowe Burger a damn fine burger . Read more
Have been a couple times so not dying to go back, but this is a really nice spot (with a delicious burger ) right near Caltrain -- convenient for weeknight dinners with those coming up from South Bay .
This burger has become a legend in it's own time. Your mouth will begin to water as you read about what goes into this beast so don't miss out. Read more
Start with the toasted pistachios , crispy Brussels sprouts chips and don't forget to try the Marlowe Burguer - caramelized onions , cheddar & bacon followed by the best fries in the world!
The back terrace is small (2 tables of 6) & awkwardly through a few back doors but much quieter than the main room. Get the poppers, burrata , & any dessert ! Fish tends to be OK. Great wine list .
Be sure to check out the newly relocated Marlowe restaurant in SoMa, which opened yesterday. Only have time for a drink? The new patio has full liquor license, which allows for cocktails . Read more
Deviled eggs , Brussel sprout chips , burrata , and poulet verde were all amazing. Great wine list and creative cocktails . Small place and it was packed - make a reservation in advance.
Ignore the abbreviated bar menu and order from the full menu, even at the bar seats . Don't fret. The "Poulet Vert " ($21) or steak frites ($29) are available to all. Read more
This place is fantastic. The brussels sprout chips , the drinks, the burgers - perfection. There’s a reason why many restaurants in town serve a “Marlowe Burger ”!
The perfect place to take your on-the-trendy-side boss or parents : great cocktails and flavorful meals. I loved the chicken .

There's a little lamb added to the beef blend in the Marlowe Burger , lending a note of gamey funk; caramelized onions , sharp cheddar , bacon , and horseradish aioli take it to the next level. Read more
Very good food but I felt the portions could have been bigger. Paying $15 for a burger & fries and there's barely any fries on the plate & the burger is delicious but small, idk if I'd return for that

The Marlowe Burger is amazing. The fries that go with it and the Bone Marrow are amazing sides! Enjoy the cool decor and nice interior!
You can't go wrong with anything on the menu, but my eyes roll back eating the grilled Niman pork chop sitting on sugar pie pumpkin mash , broccolis , harissa & mint .
A burger whose quality is worthy I its reputation! And fabulous cocktails .
The restaurant is small so opentable attempts 1-2 weeks before your desired visit are oftentimes fruitless, but if your party is small, try the bar . And the deviled eggs , b. sprout chips and burger !
Warm deviled eggs - seriously. So very cute and surprisingly tasty. Bone marrow and steak tartare are delicious. Pretty damn good hamburger . Nothing has really disappointed.
Fantastic bar tending and kitchen. Mix mellow vibe with splash of old school, garnish with a sprig of hip San Francisco - stir - and enjoy.
Burger was amazing as usual and the beef tartare has a nice spicy kick to it. Their mixed drinks on the menu lean on the sweeter side. Not bad or anything, just a heads up.
The crab and shrimp egg Benedict was probably the best I've had in my life. Great service too!
Good, but so loud ! Cute vibe but I wish it was easier to have a conversation, the sound level was just super high. Gets packed. All the desserts were awesome.
Deviled eggs , crispy brussels sprout and steak tartare are amazing! A must in SF for those who love fine dining !
Warm deviled egg , marlowe burger , and anson mills polenta . Swoon. Although, it's way too loud inside and you'll have to raise your voice.
Spotted: Daniel Boulud. Recommend: baked oysters ; burrata ; their famous burger . Brussels sprouts chips a must if you haven't tried before.
The steak tartar and the Marlowe burger are great. It's heavy so you can share it. The dessert is mediocre.
Get the baker cocktail ! The brussel sprout chips , burger , and fries were all great, too.
Cozy setting, good food and great service. Try the Brussels sprout chips and the fried chicken sandwich !
Brunch : the Kale & Brussels Sprout caesar; the french toast soldiers (you dip them like Dunkaroos as a kid- but taste waayyyyyy better)
LOVE the cauliflower cheddar cheese side menu+ marlowe burger ! Tastes just like regular mac and cheese , but with cauliflowers !
Do not skip the brussel sprout chips (I hate brussel sprouts and love these!) Or deviled eggs . My favorite mains are the burger and the scallops .
Please order something other than just sprouts and a burger . Everything is exceptional and they do the hard things, like marrow or grilled prawns , so well .
The food and service is great. Suggest to make a booking otherwise you will generally wait for a table or seats at the bar .
Poulet Vert is the best roasted chicken I've had in San Francisco.
Try the deviled egg , but be warned: you won't be able to just have one. Also champagne and, of course, a burger .
Ok, the burger is fantastic. But you know what? So is the goddamned polenta .
Angus Ribeye is AH-maxing! As well as Anson Mills Polenta ! Many compliments to the chef !
Grab the bone marrow !! And pair with a nice and spicy Blood Mary ;)
Burger and brussel sprout chips were awesome. Interesting spin on a negroni as well .
Deviled eggs are epic, Poulet Vert was quite tasty - but the staff are what make this place truly awesome. Will be back!
