Restaurant Review: Boxing Room

I haven't done one of these reviews in a while, so here it goes! 

When I go out to eat, I want it to be worth it. Meaning, I want the food to be knock my socks off amazing and delicious! My friend Kate and I went to a dinner spot in Hayes Valley this past weekend called Boxing Room and were delightedly surprised! 

The service was great, and the food was unlike anything I have tried before! This Louisiana style food in a finer dining restaurant is the perfect mix between hipster and chic. 

The menu had quite a variety, and we were hungry girls ready to treat ourselves after an uber hard week of double days in the gym.

We ordered the Sep Sauvignon Blanc to start. This wine was DELICIOUS and I HIGHLY recommend it! We also ordered starters
Boiled Cajun peanuts (delicious) &
Fried green tomatoes with shrimp marmalade. Wowza were these delicious! 

I ordered the trout which came with turnips, artichoke, a carrot purée, and an olive tapenade. 

Kate got the steak which was dressed in a jalapeño mint chutney (sort of thing).

We were so pleased we couldn't help but  immediately write a positive yelp review! 

If you are looking for something a bit different, and something for a night off of eating too clean.. Try this!
