Gabriela Camara (of legendary Contramar in CDMX) comes to SF with some remarkable seafood up her sleeve. I feel transported to Mexico City every time I walk in the door. Notable mezcal and wine selections. Delicious tacos via the back alley on weekday afternoons too.

Great place for a light meal. Wine list is fun and playful. Their oyster selection and seafood dishes are lovely

Saint Frank Coffee's new roastery and café in SoMa. Highly recommend!

Great date night vibe
Delicious rotisserie chicken and cauliflower, but also get the charred cabbage

Delicious Indian, more complexity and depth of flavor than you'd expect from such a casual outfit.
Want to go.
Cuban sandwiches and snacks with a cute bright interior and nice vibe

A great blend of bistro and American classic. Made a name with their burger (which is also also available at Park Tavern and their latest spot, Marlowe Burger) - ask for it with brussels sprout chips!
Want to go.
Awesome selection of beer in a cavernous setting
Want to go.
Legit pie. Good dive bar next door. Grab pie and bring it over.
A German classic, revitalized. Want to go for the pretzels, mustard, and beer.
Great happy hour spot near FiDi! Pretzels and Schnitzels are geschmekt
A faithful historic renovation of Fort Baker into a resort that doesn't stop at the original military buildings; it builds on it with modern lofts overlooking the Golden Gate Bridge and a remarkable spa that complement the earlier compound rather than competing with it. Highly recommended.
I've only done drinks. Would love to grab brunch-- or try the spa.
A Film About Coffee Location
Solid.
A San Francisco classic. The roast chicken is legendary for good reason. On a warm day, the open air tables transport me to the south of France.
Delicious brunch!
Hand-rolled bagels made twice daily! And other Eastern European / retro fare. Closed Mondays (as of March 2014).
Want to go.
Nice neighborhood brunch spot on the west side of Nob Hill - Blue Bottle french press and fresh squeezed orange juice. Thanks to Nic for introducing me!

SF's biggest backyard dive bar.

Really good gluten free fried chicken! (They have regular too.) Get with a cup of bone broth, and you have a great meal.

Hip attachment to the Hayes Valley "urban park," this is an outdoor ice cream stand using local ingredients in small-batch ice creams crafted using liquid nitrogen. I go classic chocolate. Pick your own. YUM!

Russian Hill - amazing coffee + forward design 👍
Delicious and unique pastries, with a cult-like following for their cruffins and caramelized banana donuts. Sad to hear their lead baker, Ry Stephen, left the company today!
Try the cronut... In fact, try anything. My buddy Ry's treats will spoil you.
Best happy hour. Delicious sampling of their menu. Good drinks. Can't find a more affordable happy hour in SF.
Incredible drinks. Tasty sliders. Great spot to meet-up with friends for conversation.
Tea leaf salad. Lamb curry. Ahhhh... So much good stuff.
Salted caramel. The "afternoon snack." Whatever you get, take it to go and walk the park.
Old school soda jerks, homemade ice cream cones, delicious ice cream. Fun dessert stop in Cole Valley.
Love this place. Boutique bowling & crazy good casual food.
A perennial favorite of many friends. Has a courtyard inside where they project old films onto the wall, a nice stylistic touch. Brunch is an institution.
Want to go. (I hear they have homemade pop tarts here too!)
Great neighborhood to spend a day. This small urban fortress has it all: coffee, retail options, delicious food and great drink.
A SF classic spot. And the only restaurant I'd go order the spaghetti without thinking twice. It's that good.
If you're craving a burger, this is what you want. 100% grass fed, high quality meats... My go-to is the Tejano... Shakes are delicious too!
BFC all day! (Delicious fried chicken)
Great place in West Marin to take in the sunset.
Gorgeous sunset views... Lots of trails nearby.
Tropical flavors!
Grasshopper. Top 3 ice cream spot in entire city. Yum.
Neighborhood cafe. Serves Stumptown, chia bowls, egg sliders and delicious toast combinations!
Beer and brats. The duck and fig and andouille are decent. Outdoor patio seating.
Beer & Brats. Tornado next door.

Most heralded taco in SF. Always delivers.
Authentic Berlin-esque german bites w/out the Kitsch. I've ordered it all and never disappoints. Homemade pretzels too are delicious. The wiener schnitzel is still my favorite.
Amazing brunch. Well-executed food and for the wait there's Trouble Coffee next door and General Store to check out.
Fantastic romantic Italian restaurant on Hyde Street. A Russian Hill gem. Fresh made pastas daily. Great Italian wine selection and the service is top-notch.
Want to go.
A kinda hidden spot for coffee surrounded by plants. Much quieter than other Ritual Coffee Roasters. Visit here with your fav book and enjoy a sunny part of the city.
Want to go.
Avocado toast with a fried egg on top and Four Barrel brews. The only good coffee in the Castro.
Want to go.
Want to go. Via Tablehopper.

My favorite Mexican restaurant within walking distance of where we live. Fun and loud neighborhood joint in North Beach. Everything on the menu is awesome!
Love this place! Mexican specialty dishes... An sign-less gem in North Beach. Pisto's, their taqueria is nearby too!
Ignore the decor, this family owned and operated middle eastern restaurant makes the best kebabs, schwarma and garlic dip in SF.
Want to go.
A go-to spot. Brunch or dinner.
