San Franciscans don't have to wait in the food truck line for their popular "burgers" and kamikaze fries. The restaurant also has rice bowls, tacos, and a secret menu you'll have to ask about.
Very solid food. Best Spanish cuisine I've had in awhile. The stuffed peppers were the jam. The churros lived up to the hype.
This place is an SF classic. Amazing burritos obviously but make sure you have cash
This floating restaurant at Pier 39 makes an ideal quirky event destination. Features a working lighthouse, a tiki bar and dining area with port holes looking out into the bay!
Great place for some legit Indian food! Dahi Puri was excellent! Also, get the chicken biryani!

Epic breakfast sandwiches, much quicker than waiting for a table at a sit down brunch spot. Grab a coffee from Farley's and sit on the sidewalk patio.
They have 4 pancakes to choose from, and they take about 40 min to make. Be prepared to wait a long time! It is totally worth it. We've tried original and tuna; both fantastic.
Beef roll, beef hand pulled noodles (soup), salt & pepper deep fried fish, potstickers, dumplings to name a few and pretty much everything we've tried. The food is consistently good.

Shanghai-style pork soup dumplings, pan-fried potstickers, and the garlic bok choy are all yummy. And the hot chili oil makes everything better.
The most epic buffet (if you can actually call it that) I have ever experienced. Sushi to omelets to dim sum to beautiful salads to you name it. You may never need to eat again after coming here.
We’ve never met a sandwich at this pocket-sized SOMA cafe that we haven’t liked. What’s so good? The ingredients are top notch, the flavors perfectly balanced, and, oh yeah, they’re stacked. 자세히 보기
Excellent wine selection and the pizza was fantastic. Fermented chili added a lightly spicy perfection. The portions are on the small side, so you may want an appetizer.
If a hipster went to Munich, Radhaus would be the result. Light airy space with views of the bay, standard Bavarian food and beer options. Forest toast, potato salad and (huge) half chicken were great
Can’t go wrong with boozy shaved ice and Hawaiian brunch. We got the Spam Beni and the veggie loco moco, both super yummy. Also, loved the decor and overall vibe. Will definitely be going back!
Omakase. Honestly, if you think this is anything other than sublime sushi you should just stick to the Whole Foods sushi counter.
I love the mystery of seeing what sushi comes floating around this small sushi boat bar. You never know what's coming next, but nearly all of it is very fresh and totally delicious. WinstonWanders.com

Great spot for a casual but romantic date night. Top quality food with great vegetarian options.
By far the best meal I’ve ever had in SF - some of the best meatballs and cauliflower I’ve ever had period. The kale tagliatelle, garganelli, macaroncelli all incredible!!
The Omakse may seem pricy, but $92 gets you very generous amounts of some of the best, most inventive food I've ever had.
Trio of dips; the delicacy of vegetable-based mezes: cauliflower and zucchini cakes (mucver) must have; amazing chicken and lamb skewers, conclude with a baklava! They have an amazing team!
very pleasing decor w/ green interior tiles & gold accents, creating a pretty corner in the tenderloin. Counter order: fresh salads/sandos + counter culture coffee. Def the spot to stop this way.
Super fresh, great quality seafood with reasonable prices; don't be fooled by the hole-in-the-wall aesthetic. The sushi is on point and the salmon burger is incredibly tasty as well

"Owner/chef Isabel Caudillo born and raised in Mexico City, makes authentic meals from scratch using organic masa and hand-rolled enchiladas, including less knowns like a pasta dish coditos con crema"
I dream of Gordo's super chicken burritos. They steam the cheese on the tortilla before filling the burrito, making it melty and gooey and perfect. Chicken, rice, and beans are perfectly seasoned. YUM
Get the guava marg. The chips and salsa are great, and the queso fundito is a great addition to dip chips in.
70 outdoor seats and a spacious indoor tasting bar, lounge and event space. View of the Bay Bridge lights. Great food
Dogpatch gem. Don’t believe the crummy tips. I go for an everything with cream cheese, which tastes amazing and unlike others. Can’t beat the freshness of this bakery, creamery, and Red Bay coffee.
Bakery-cafe by morning, dinner spot by night! Well-designed neighborhood gem with a fun attitude.
This has got to be my favorite Indian/Nepali restaurant of all time. The Thali combo for 2$ is a steal and is how you would normally eat at home.
Outdoor patio. Seafood-rich Mexican restaurant, Aguachile verde is signature dish. Also hot stone molcajetes, bubbling spectacles similar to Korean dolsots filled with seafood, salsa and avocado
Oh my everything we had here was amazing (and I’m not into exaggerating) no photos since we indulged. But shrimp ceviche, tuna taco, shrimp taco in jicama. Just wow. Come and try yourself!
Lobster Ha Gow. That comes with a lobster butter filled dropper. That you inject into each one. What else do you need to know?!?
Awesome donut shop. Get there quick; they sell out quickly. My faves are turkey & jalapeño croissant, blueberry buttermilk bar, apple fritter and a glazed old fashioned. So good!
The salmon roe toast is amazing. The cold brew brunch cocktail is particularly great.
“Shanghainese spot has tons of boiled, steamed, and pan-fried dumplings, plus bigger dishes like dan dan noodles and stir-fried rice cakes. lunch specials on weekends.”
The momos are outstanding and th pork dish was also lovely. I love the big windows and the general ambience too.
Hooray for a business who takes care of its workers. Everything here is delicious, and the mezze is always a crowd pleaser. Don't forget to snag a bag of their sourdough pita, too!

Beautiful looking new space that saves the best of the old with a good bit of new. Try the Platha!
Everything we had was amazing! Hands down the toast was the group favorite followed by the cabbage 🤩
Food is absolutely delicious. Highly recommend the Pho Hanoi. The service is also incredibly excellent. Seats are up to you. Ask to sit at the bar, or in a booth, or at a hightop.
Easily the best Eritrean restaurant and one of the best African restaurants in SF!
Love the Orange foam coffee. I combine kalbijim croissant and injeolmi croissant to stack the rice cake and the kalbi like a magical croissant sandwich.
The best Chinese food I’ve ever had. The shrimp dumplings, shiu mai, chive dumplings, sticky rice in lotus leaf, steamed BBQ pork bun, and sesame ball, were phenomenal.

Atelier Crenn (holds 3 Michelin stars) alums started this “Asian American” bakery serving delightful goodies: kaya toast (coconut jam on milk bread) + their version of an ube tart (w/ CA sweet potato)
Cinnamon rolls (on weekends only) are fantastic. The Pistachio Apricot Bostock is wonderful
Chinese baked good utopia. Cash only. Sponge cakes, egg tarts, pineapple buns, pork buns, etc. And never really a line.
Big fan of the OG location. Different, more modern vibe here, and the backyard looks very promising. Breakfast sandwich was pretty good but the cinnamon roll was insane. 10/10
Very authentic Italian experience. Warm bread and has a home/family feel to it. The tortellini is amazing with white cream sauce or the aurora pink sauce. You can't go wrong. Highly recommend it!
“Slow-cooked stew mastery is on full display at this Bayview spot. The gumbos are revelatory—they’re creamy, rich, and buttery all at once, and will send you into a dream state.”
Great go-to spot for sandwiches to take to Ocean Beach. I’ve had the pastrami and smoked salmon and will be going back when the cravings strike!
