ITALIAN For a taste of old San Francisco, head to this ne w joint on the corner of Washington Park. Although it opened its doors in 2006, DiMaggio s will transport you back a half-century. The polished decor includes deep rich mahogany walls, gener ously siz ed plush leather booths, stunning Ar t D eco chandeliers, and, best of all, hundr eds of black-and-white photographs of old S an Francisco. You ll see photos of Joe and Marilyn (circa 1954) here, snapshots of besuited locals in fedora hats there, pictures of old baseball games around the corner. The dim lighting and stately bar make D iMaggio s feel quite adult, but the space accommodates all sor ts of diners; the booths can easily fit a family of four and then some. I ve seen other kids here who clearly enjoyed images of the capitol building the experience. In keeping with the old-time theme, por tion sizes are definitely not nouv elle. While the menu contains enough new influences to keep it interesting, the servings are so generous I recommend sharing. The pork chop is large enough to feed two, and the potato gratin images of the capitol building accompanying it measur ed a good 5 inches acr oss. Salads like the tomato salad with shaved fennel and fried goat cheese are well executed, but not exactly a light start to a meal. The gnocchi and smoked chicken in cr eam sauce is as rich as y ou d expect it to be, and twice as big. Nonetheless, desserts like the dreamy Frangelico cheesecake with a rich hazelnut cream are good enough to make r oom for.
