Dining Guide Boxing Room

On the bustling corner of Gough and Grove Streets in San Francisco’s Hayes Valley neighborhood, a new restaurant will open mid-June 2011. The latest project from The Absinthe Group is Boxing Room, on the former site of Citizen Cake. It offers traditional Cajun and Creole dishes of New Orleans and coastal Louisiana from Chef Justin Simoneaux, in a welcoming space to dine, socialize, and relax throughout the day and night. The name is taken from the original use of the room in the 19th-century former Standard Shirts Factory.
