The Restaurant

Bobo’s is a stylish twist on the traditional steakhouse. Chef Andrea Froncillo has created a delectable menu that blends steak, crab, Asian-Italian fusion and comfort food. You’ll find classics like:

  • Twice-baked potatoes stuffed with zucchini, chives & fontina cheese
  • Baked yam with brown sugar-butter
  • Sautéed Portobello mushrooms
  • Ahi tuna carpaccio with crunchy cucumber ponzu & sesame oil mist

The stars of the menu are "the steak" and "the crab." Iron skillet-roasted mussels, shrimp and crab are the co-stars. The stage is set for a perfect evening of entertainment and feasting with friends.

Conveniently located on 1450 Lombard Street near Van Ness. Open seven days a week. Complimentary Valet Parking.

 

The Partners

Bobo’s began with the dream of a succulent steaks and crab with a warm, relaxed environment to enjoy them in. Jerry Dal Bozzo, Dante Serafini and Andrea Froncillo— the trio of North Beach-based restaurateurs who operate five unique eateries in California – wanted to open up a boutique restaurant that felt as intimate as dining at home.

In preparation for their venture, they tasted every well-regarded steak from New York to California. They discovered that there were no restaurants on the West Coast that offered steak dry-aged for more than twenty-one days. Believing that the extra time and attention creates a steak that is truly superior, they formed a partnership with one of the few meat purveyors whose facilities and quality control offer a steak dry-aged four to six weeks. Today, "the steak" on Bobo’s menu is the only steak of its kind on the west coast.

The interior of the restaurant was just as carefully assembled as the menu. Jerry Dal Bozzo spent hours sourcing one-of-a-kind items, including Bobo’s namesake, a hand-painted marionette that perches over the door to the kitchen. The result is nothing short of magical; Bobo's looks like a jewel box, with a curved mahogany bar, sexy red walls, striped tablecloths and plush leather booths.
