Canela
Not sure if you want to go classy or sassy? Savor a Spanish influenced main course or just stop in for a Tapa. Your choice.
Frances
With a menu that changes daily, you won’t know what to expect at this traditional American style restaurant. But there are a few constants: high class, high flavor, high price.
Kitchen Story
An Asian Fusion family-owned restaurant great for brunch or dinner. Don’t worry about the wait. You’ll get your mascarpone stuffed deep fried french toast and be glad you stuck around.
Fable
Service and food so good you’ll think it’s fictional. American style with meat for the meatheads and veggies for the veggies. Keep an eye out for your Prince Charming.
Yank Sing
This is one of the more famous nice dim sum places in the city. A warning for beginners: all those tasty morsels quickly add to your waist and your bill.
Tu Lan
It’s in about the worst possible location, but this Vietnamese restaurant rewards the brave and the thrifty. It’s an adventure; the prissy need not apply.
Tartine Bakery
This very popular bakery cooks in the French style–with loads of butter. Waifs beware! Everyone else, get in line for croissants and croque monsieurs.
Taqueria Guadalajara
If you want the real taqueria experience, with burritos a little too big to finish and Mexican TV blaring, make your way down into the Mission for this place.
Tacolicious
Horribly named, the new “it” taco place serves up fresh ingredients and unique cocktails. If taquerias are too downscale for you, go here (and prepare to wait).
Suppenküche
German food, great atmosphere, beer by the bootful. This place gets crowded like a beer garden in October, so make reservation or prepare to wait.
