Ernie's

Scottie first sees Madeleine across the red dining room at Ernie's, which was a real restaurant at this Jackson Square address and, unusually for a location Hitchcock liked, was rebuilt on a studio soundstage rather than shot in place. He knew the room well enough to have it copied. The restaurant closed in the mid-1990s, so the address is all that is left to stand in front of. A note on the map pin: open map data offered a close but not exact match for this place, so the marker may sit slightly off. If it looks wrong, please flag this entry so it can be checked.
