Fivethirtyeight burrito bracket put this #1, and they were right. The carnitas are good, but the carne asada is better. Crispy style is a must, though not on the menu.
The Ruprecht is a Reuben on a heavy dose of steroids. Pastrami + corned beef, swiss, great cole slaw, pickled onion, and a 1000 island sauce make this the best sandwich in SF.
The salsa lives up to the hype. Mix it with the guacamole to start. Go off menu and get the super chicken adobo burrito.
The perfect egg breakfast sandwich with slabs of bacon on top. This is the quintessential SF brunch spot.
The best Chinese food hands down. Get everything so spicy you can't feel your lips. Thrice cooked bacon, Kung pao pastrami, ma pao tofu makes a perfect meal for two.
Great Burmese food. Standouts: platha and coconut chicken curry dip, shrimp Burmese curry with coconut rice, and of course the tea leaf salad.
Unreal Italian sandwiches packed with even more meat than Deli Board. Better than Ike's. The Salumi is piled high with salamis, served on a perfectly crunchy hero.
The iced mint mojito is what iced coffee dreams are made of. Is it weird I have those dreams occasionally?
Some of the best espresso and iced single origin coffee in the city. Cappuccino is a bit sour in the best way. Great breakfast pastries, too.
The best espresso and cappuccinos in SF. Perfectly sour. Get a seat to watch and smell the beans roasting.
This may be the best espresso / cappuccino in the city. As smooth as Blue Bottle, but much richer flavor.
The bourbon and branch team brings you another perfect date spot with an ambitious cocktail menu inspired by the gold rush.
The best authentic and ambitious Thai food in SF. It reeks of fish sauce from around the corner in the best way. Standouts: mushroom hor mok (curry terrine) and khao soi (chicken curry noodles).
If the main room is too crowded/loud/pretentious, head down the stairs and make a u-turn to the left to find the tasting room devoted to sours. Much quieter, and you can still get food!
Great rooftop cocktail bar with views of downtown SF. Huge and good for groups. The pisco cocktail was perfect.
Put down the menu. Look up at the daily specials. Tell your waiter your life is in her hands. But, demand the toro.
The California steak Zapata will put you into a blissful burrito coma. Great craft beers on tap, too.
The best value sandwich in SF. $10 for the Molinari Special with half a dozen delicious Italian meats layered high enough two people could split one.
The Mission Mecca of chocolate. Free samples abound. Frozen hot chocolate was somehow refreshing.
Eat everything. Morning buns, croissants, and breeding pudding of course, but the sandwiches and savory pastries with ham and cheese, too.
#1 brunch, hands down. Custard French toast is gooey perfection. Savory egg dishes, like with sausage, rock. Sit upstairs for optimal people watching.
The burritos are good, but the carne asada quesadilla super suiza is the real star.
One of my favorite bars in America. Amazing tiki drinks that aren't overly sweet. The puka puka served in a huge goblet is always great. Perfect for a date or a group of friends.
Lives up to hype. Affordable, bougie "dim sum" carts + hip vibes. Standouts: guinea hen dumpling, lamb tartare w/ kimchi/nori crackers, chanterelle-yuba ‘all’amatriciana’ w/ guanciale, liver mouse.
Banana town flavors and super delicious. Salted caramel ribbons plus weird seasonal flavors FTW.
Best iced single origin coffee I've ever had (as absurd as that sounds). Fantastic, light filled vibes.
What a steal - great way to try the cocktails, mushrooms and more from Lazy Bear at great prices & lovely ambience
Our rec? Tell your server what kind of meal you're in the mood for and what price you'd like to pay, and just put yourself into the hands of those experienced chefs. Leggi tutto.
Fantastic and very filling Lebanese food. Mezze platter (hummus and Muhammara) and chicken kebab plate all delicious.
Fantastic dim sum: baked pork buns, pan fried shrimp and chive dumpling, and har gow all great. Not bad wait Sunday, with spacious tables.
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.
Super tasty dumplings: seafood gyoza and Tom yum goong soup dumplings (XLB) were our winners.
The Rebel from Within lives up to the hype and is the perfect savory daytime snack
Fantastic Asian leaning new American from the State Bird team, now with a Michelin star but still low key. Loved the lamb tartare, rabbit cavatelli, squid ink pasta, and clams. Really, everything.
