"We use Park Chalet mainly as a day drinking spot with Ocean Beach views. But this well-lit American restaurant (it has a massive atrium backing into Golden Gate Park) also has a Thanksgiving menu if you’re looking to eat a traditional turkey dinner by the beach or next to a fireplace. Their three-course dinner includes your choice of a soup or salad, and for your entrée, a roasted turkey, pan-seared sea bass, or farro risotto. And there’s pumpkin pie or warm apple crisp for dessert. Reservations are available here. " - ricky rodriguez
