And it looks not half bad! Bernalwood was able to sneak a peek:
Though from the outside it looks pretty much the same as it has since it closed in 2009, there’s lots happening behind the sheets of brown paper that cover the windows of the venerable Palace Steak House at the corner of Mission and Cesar Chavez. Four decades worth of accumulated kitch and grunge have been removed, and based on these exclusive photographs captured by the Bernalwood Spybot, it seems the interior of the Palace Steak House has been throughly remodeled to look retro-shabby-chic.
Read on for more reportage and more photos and the Palace Family Steakhouse theme song.
people here eat steak?
Fuck yeah!
Awesome new hipster hangout! See you there!
Y’think? It was never a “hipster hangout” in the previous 40 years of its existence, why do you think it will be, now?
Hipsters don’t eat steak, unless it comes in a taco.
If they ate steak they wouldn’t be able to wear girls jeans.
Oh god, steak is second only to bacon in the genre of stupid hipster meatstuffs. Ironic 60s Mad Men posering FTW.
wrong
gg: I can only assume you’re joking. Or else have never had a good steak.
I’m not sure I can overstate just how excited I am that Palace Family Steak House is apparently coming back. I pass it every day on my way to/from work and it is a constant reminder of loss.
El Pito used to eat at the Palace in the late 80′s. Truly is a loss, just like the old Carrozzi Burgers on South Van Ness…..
This is best news today.
holy fuck!!! sooooo stoked. been bummed ever since they closed. they had some of the best burgers. been having to hit up geneva steak house since they’ve closed, but palace is still better. “thank you”
I talked to the new owners recently… they also own a Moroccan food/hookah joint somewhere in the Richmond.
Said they were going for a 50′s diner feel and it was going to be renamed to something I can’t remember.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Renaming this place would be a mistake.
It is called “Mission Gastroclub” according to Facebook Places.
Oh jesus, this just gets worse and worse.
Hey guys! Just posted this on Bernalwood.
Palace Steak House is open!! Definitely kept the same name.
I’m one of the servers. This week we’re doing a soft open, once things get going we will be open from 11am – 3am (hopefully by end of next week or the week after…we don’t have enough staff to handle all of those hours just yet!)
The steaks are under $16, plus we’ve added pizza and some Mediterranean dishes as well. The response has been really good. Things might not be perfect this week, we’re trying to figure out exactly how much we need, adding more things we need, etc. But the food is awesome! Come visit me, I’ll be back there again on Sunday
