    If you are handicapped, don't go here. They'll tell you on the phone that they are accessible, but when you get there, you'll find that they can't get the handicapped elevator to work. Then they will blame the city for it. Luckily my step-father is not wheelchair-bound yet or we would have had no Thanksgiving dinner that night because he wouldn't have been able to navigate the stairs. Although he was able to get down, it was very painful for him. What's worse is that he had to go up and down an extra time to use the bathroom because there is no bathroom on the dining level. My mother said they were apologetic, but they didn't do anything to make up for it, like comp a drink, let alone a meal. They might have also tried to offer us a spot at Beach Chalet, which does have a working elevator. Pretty unprofessional.

    Wish we would've gone to the Beach Chalet. Park Chalet Restaurant is nice, but it was loud with tons of soccer kids with families. Food was bland. service good. Beer was better. Would be a better lunch place. Drinks at Beach Chalet at sunset saved the evening...

    The Park Chalet is a pretty nice place to enjoy a parents date night meal. They have a nice selection of beers for different palates and the food was mostly good. The noise level was not too loud and the view into the park was nice. Also having a glass room helps to let in lots of natural sunlight and make things brighter. My wife and I started with the poke which was very well seasoned and marinated. She also had the fish tacos which she enjoyed very much. I had the fish and chips for dinner. The important thing is to eat it while it was hot. After the fish cools down a bit, the batter was no longer crispy and became a bit heavy and soggy. For dessert, we had the cheesecake in a jar. Very nicely done and the cheesecake part was not heavy at all. It could have used more fruit other than the 4 blueberries and 1 cut strawberry though. For those with a shellfish allergies, I wish the kitchen had more than one fryer. My wife wanted to have the fish and chips also, but because the same fryer is used for all the fried items, including shellfish, she had to skip that as she did not want to have an allergic reaction. Overall, it is a nice place to hang out and enjoy a meal and enjoy a parents date night while the kids are at home with the grandparents!

    We arrive for our 8:30 reservation and we were told that we had 10 minutes to order or else the kitchen would be closed. It was clear that we were the last patrons ordering and our food seemed like the last food they had in the kitchen quickly pushed together and sent out. It was not a great experience.

    I thought my fish tacos were excellent as was the dessert. Nice wine list. Great people watching right at the edge of Golden Gate Park. Love the ambience at Park Chalet: casual, laid-back and pretty good dining right across from Ocean Beach. AND there's free parking! :-)
