Asqew Grill - Haight Ashbury, San Francisco




I loved it here. After a day of walking around Haight Ashbury, doing a little shopping and taking in the very similar vibe of Camden in London we stopped at Asqew Grill. 

It had a very bohemian feeling, very laid back. However Haight Ashbury is the epitome of laid back, so it stands to reason.

It was unpretentious, welcoming and most importantly the food was good. I had the Cilantro (Coriander to us Brits) Chicken Skewers with Coconut Cilantro Jasmine Rice ($7.89 for one skewer, $10.79 for 2). It was sour from the lime, hot from the chilli and the rice was good and creamy.

They had a variety of things on the menu such as Tuna Skewers, side salads with Grilled Pear and a Gorganzola dressing ($3.99), BBQ, Burgers etc... 

What I liked the most about Asqew was that you could choose your own sides. So with each main you chose you had the option to add either Roasted Garlic Mash, Coconut Rice, Citrus Cous Cous, or Grilled Mascapone Polenta.

I'd certainly go again if I find myself in San Francisco. I hope it's still there.
