You MUST get the crab cioppino. The service is outstanding as well.
Food-wise, if you venture beyond the plates of thinly sliced hog & fresh molluscs, the ham & cheddar fritters & fish & chips are both extraordinary. Try the aged tequila and oatmeal stout combo. 자세히 보기
Get a meat cone, select some quality salumi. Buy the Nduja and get some bread next door at ACME. Find a sunny spot and bath in piggie bliss.
Impossible to find. No sign. No address. Look for "Anti-Saloon League". "Books" will get you into the secret library bar in the back. Otherwise, you have to have reservations.
The meat that the restaurant does well is self-explanatory. Have a martini - well worth it. Sides were a bit meh.
Remember how great Nick's Crispy Tacos on Polk used to be? The awesome namesake dish is here, now. Get the Elote con Queso - whole grilled cob of corn coated with cotija cheese.
The best cup of coffee I have ever had! Phil roasts and grinds on site with passion and zeal. He adds spices like cardamom to the grounds so the coffee has this incredible aroma and flavor. -Gail Simm
Russian sauna, Finnish sauna, Turkish sauna, freezing pool, chilled pool, jacuzzi, veniki, and a restaurant with a BYOB policy.
Be prepared to wait for a table and then consume some of the freshest oysters around. Watching the pros shucking oysters is something magical.
Quite possibly my favorite restaurant in the country. Humble family recipes from Vietnamese Chef Charles Phan, made exceptional with locally-sourced ingredients, all overlooking the San Francisco Bay.
Fried chicken, hush puppies, boudin balls = YES. Boucherie (pork chop) = undercooked and underwhelming
Get multiple sides of green salsa! They blend avocado in it and it's basically the best thing ever.
This spot near Union Square is the brainchild of three gents from a small town in Florida who wanted to bring sophisticated Southeastern cuisine to Fog City. 자세히 보기
Try the dry fried chicken wings. Fast service once you get a table, but expect a line. I love the kimchi they bring you when you sit down. -Laurine Wickett, Top Chef
The menu, with a large oyster selection for appetizers & main-dish favorites like the smoky masala pork chop, never disappoints. Foreign films are screened in the courtyard of the chic space. 자세히 보기
Movies in the park, tamale lady, acro-yoga and dogs on the loose. Chill with good friends and enjoy the view.
Get the #5 (five spice chicken, kebabs, imperial roll, rice with meat sauce) and be prepared for leftovers. Cash only!
Gigantic Cuban tortas with pounded and breaded fried beef, chorizo, chicken, hot dog, egg, ham, bacon, avocado, tomato, mayo, guacamole, and cotija cheese. It's big. Really big.
12 taps of beer are available at Speakeasy's taproom. Check the website for hours before visiting.
Get the Secret Breakfast with the Vietnamese Coffee from Blue Bottle. Perfect combo!
Always order more than you need so you can take some home and enjoy it again! The Deep Dish Pizzas are like having a yummy lasagna with pizza crust!!! Fantastic!
Take a run at the French Trail. It will make your heart pump and your legs sore.
Old fashioned and charcuterie! They have a range of cognac and Armagnac from France. The decoration and the building are great!
The new benchmark for fish tacos. Enrique at the bar took great care of us. Also - they cook the Maine lobster in pork fat 😱
Great Burmese food. Standouts: platha and coconut chicken curry dip, shrimp Burmese curry with coconut rice, and of course the tea leaf salad.
I would order the fried chicken ($20). Every. Single. Time. Fried in rice flour, the exterior is ethereally light, crisp, and well seasoned, and it’s damn juicy too. And gluten-free! 자세히 보기
Order the Chicken Pho, it's the best in the Bay area with a broth as delicious as it gets. If your up for a challenge add Pho Ga Long to your broth mixing chicken giblets to the mix. 자세히 보기
Get the champa sampler! Perfect amount of Lao sausage and fried rice ball salad. Kao poon noodle soup is delish and filling.
This small restaurant has been luring diners with its interesting blend of Thai, Laotian, Lue and California cuisine. Try pungent dishes like fried rice ball salad w/ preserved pork or other specials. 자세히 보기
Order an old school cocktail (i.e. no mojitos) while you wait for crab cakes topped with a tangy marinara sauce and a steaming bowl of the original San Francisco treat: Cioppino. 자세히 보기
The end of the world. Great place for hiking, (sorta) trail running and of course photography.
Try the garbage bread (pizza dough, proofed overnight and rolled into a burrito-Stromboli mash-up stuffed with either pepperoni and sausage, herbs and ricotta).
Get the fried chicken skillet. The chicken is fantastic & comes with a pretty spicy hot sauce. Also greens and potato salad. The cornmeal fritters are also a sweet and delicious way to start your meal
Sure, it's a tourist obsession, but the Buena Vista does make a damn good Irish coffee. Also, it combines coffee and alcohol and dark wooden bars, three things San Francisco adores. 자세히 보기
The omakase here is insane. Maybe best sushi I've had in the USA. Be sure to ask to try all the diff types of uni & eat something that's been blowtorched. (pic = wagyu, btw)
Order as much as you can off the specials board (each is 2 pieces btw). Do not miss the White Tuna Toro if it's on the board!
Hot and Spicy authentic Sichuan dishes in Chinatown. Often a line but worth the wait. It is even Michelin recommended.
Vegetarian food can be super exciting. Voted one of the Top 5 new restaurants in America by Bon Appetite in 2016 I believe. They always look full but you can get a table around 9PM pretty easily.
It's known as a dive, & has a dive crowd (mostly) with divey prices, but with white tablecloths, low mood lighting, & candles. It kind of looks like a cozy Italian joint. 자세히 보기
Fantastic dim sum, albeit a bit pricier. Top dishes: shrimp rice noodles, pork soup dumplings, baked BBQ pork buns, and pork and shrimp shui mai.
Cioppino, clam chowder. Service is fantastic and has an old school Italian feel
Dirty horchata: delicious cinnamon rice milk with a layer of espresso on top. It tastes better if you don't mix it, so the coffee flavor seeps in slowly.
The fried chicken wings,seafood pancake and kimchi fried rice are awesome especially washed down with pineapple soju. God bless this place being open late,2am close time,every night.
The most authentic Korean BBQ restaurant in SF (with the prices to match). It's not a bad deal if you go with a large group with all of the sides and free add-ons ("service"). Get the galbi!
Thirty-nine beers on tap, a grill out back on the outdoor patio and plenty of viewing room inside all contribute to Valley Tavern's elevated status as a comfortable neighborhood sports bar. 자세히 보기
Hue rolls are unique and really tasty, great presentation. Bun Rieu and Bun Bo Hue take the cake for soups!
Must haves: scallion pancakes, dirty rice, and dumplings! Cocktail of choice: pixie and Luna!
Great ambiance - always seems to have a great record playing. They limit the seating so it’s never too crowded. Love the cocktails.
Amazing Omakase experience. Respecting tradition yet innovative. The rice is like Sukiyabashi Jiro but less vinegary. Gotta do the supplement menu.
The dried porcini doughnuts and miso risotto with black truffle were life changing. We also had the roasted squash dumpling, burrata tostada, and bread. Would highly recommend them all.
An SF gem with lovely service and great bistro staples. I always get the steak au poivre or the filet mignon, but you can't go wrong with the cassoulet which has been cooking since the day it opened.
