Serving classic Chinese recipes and some of Chef Danny’s own creations. As recommended by Travel Channel host, Anthony Bourdain.
Awesome veggie burger - I get it (usually with the special of the week) and I'm not even vegetarian. Also the fried chicken sandwich and milkshakes are bomb.
Hidden inside Wes Burger, this is a small intimate setting to grab a drink. Standing room only in a quirky spot.
enjoy the ambience of a coffee shop that loves coffee, rather than a makeshift internet café. Unplug, unwind, enjoy their music and a damn good latte.
Grab a coffee and a magazine or your laptop, sit in the loft overlook, and judge silently.
Great beer bar with pool tables (which aren't hard to get on weekdays). Especially good for sours - they usually have multiple Almanacs and other types on tap.
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.
Standard beef pho is solid. Bun bo hue is great if you like sour and spicy. Hu tieu (chicken-garlic broth) is perfect for a cold day.
Sit at the bar if you have a small group (there is always a wait). My usual order is an aperitivo (cocktail), trippa alla romana and a half order of carbonara.
Dog friendly patio with an eclectic crowd and live music. Reasonably priced. Also free wifi, if you must work.
Awesome new cocktail and small plates space from the owner of Hideout and an all star team of bar folk. I am fucking thrilled this exists.
Great patio in the back! Staff is super super friendly and unpretenscious, wait how do you spell unpretensious? ...
Idea: if here with one other person, order a single BBQ meal platter (comes with 2 sides) and one or two appetizers
Fantastic California cuisine, but you need to make reservations weeks in advance to get a spot!
One of my favorite restaurants in sf. Equally good for eating around at the bar, or going family style with a big group. The drunken noodles are a must if they're on the menu!
Mikkeller Bar just opened a secret private beer room in the basement (use these not-at-all-scary stairs) devoted entirely to sours. Mehr erfahren.
The outdoor space out back is pleasant and has couches and headlamps. A rare find and not obvious.
One of the most overlooked/underrated patios in all of SF, this Hayes Valley eat spot's back end is shaded by trees and lush green plants. Perfect for enjoying an iced tea. Or beer. Mehr erfahren.
Good for cheese plates and wine, just beware the laptop table-hoggers when you want to get your wine time going on a Sunday night. -Josh K.
They have a ton of wine kegs on tap. Grab a jug to split with friends or a flight to try out more of their selection.
Tiny & quiet with a highly unusual wine selection. They do bottles to go & will let you taste a few things before you buy.
Artisan cocktails, lodge-like interior, pool table, Buck Hunter. What more could you ask for? Mehr erfahren.
The music here makes me wanna shake my booty and get some work done. Get the rosé.
Don't miss out on the dry-fried chicken wings...they're #36 on 7x7's Big Eat SF 2010. Mehr erfahren.
Good no-frills, homestyle Korean food. The actual restaurant is tiny and always packed, but you can get takeout or delivery (through Postmates). I like the soft tofu soup and cold noodles (naengmyeon)
Serving "elegant mouth watering dishes," Z & Y serves up spicy favorites such as Chicken with Explosive Chili Pepper and Spicy Fish with Flaming Chili Oil. Pretty self explanatory.
A historic landmark? The first version of Instagram was built here over the course of 4 weekends.
Wine / liquor store with a great selection - but also a small bar with food and drink options!
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)
Get the classic Neapolitan-style Margherita made with minimal but super tasty ingredients, like Berkeley-based Belfiore mozzarella— it's packed with flavor! Sometimes simplicity really is perfection. Mehr erfahren.
Given that Giordano's specializes in all-in-one Pittsburgh-style sandwiches, it's no surprise that Steelers fans congregate at both its locations. Happy football season. Mehr erfahren.
Different drinks, but delicious and the tapas was to die for. Can't beat the view and service either.
unpretentious and pretty close to perfect: stumptown coffee, dynamo donuts, anthony's cookies, patio, wifi, bazillions of sandwiches under $10, reasonable hours, live music, beer, magazines, etc...
Excellent espresso and delicious bread! Head next door to gawk at Heath after to complete your bougie Saturday.
The soup dumplings are to die for...they're # 13 on 7x7's Big Eat SF 2010. Mehr erfahren.
The portions are perfect! Not huge American ones that leave you stuffed with tons of leftovers; but Japanese portions that leave you satisfied and still able to move. Everything is delicious!
My new favorite ramen place in SF. Super delicious thick broth. Get here early to avoid the line.
Arguably one of the best beer selections in the Bay Area. They update their menu daily, so there's always a new beer to try.
The Shake Shack of Greek food. Superb sandwiches, wine and frozen yogurt. Sidewalk seating, too – a rare thing in SF.
Surprisingly well priced for the location and ambience. The pastas are good. Several vegetarian options.
$10 happy hour special every day (chicken karaage sandwich + draft beer + chips) and $5 wings special during Warriors games. Great drinks, food, and lots of TVs for sports!
Sure Lers Ros is the only authentic Thai restaurant with rabbit, frog and venison on its regular menu, but even the pad Thai rivals the best you'll find anywhere in Thailand. [Eater 38 Member] Mehr erfahren.
If you're a hipster, try to get here before it becomes popular. Oh too late it's already popular.
No longer a secret since Michael Bauer blessed it with three stars, this Inner Richmond spot isn't the cheapest in a hood filled with dim sum, but it's one of the best. Mehr erfahren.
