Company

Karen Hoffmann and Jason Poindexter, who worked together at the Four Seasons, have joined together to run the kitchen at this casual Mission restaurant, which occupies the former Tao Cafe space. Not all of their food succeeds, but the grilled squid with roasted Brussels sprouts, crisp pancetta and salsa verde has an autumnal appeal, and the burger–ground Angus chuck smothered in sautéed mushrooms and triple-cream brie–is as rich as it sounds.
