The Alembic 1725 Haight : San Francisco, CA 94117 : 415-666-0822
The Alembic is not to everyone's tastes: too loud/too hipster/too much of a bar/too fancy/ew, bone marrow? But in addition to stellar cocktails (one favorite, the Southern Exposure, contains gin, mint, and celery juice), the kitchen puts out some of the most unabashedly creative food in this... More >>

Angkor Borei 3471 Mission : San Francisco, CA 94110 : 415-550-8417
This family-run, Outer Mission/Bernal Heights favorite is worth the trip from anywhere in the city for its charming service and unique food.

Aperto Restaurant 1434 18th St. : San Francisco, CA 94107 : 415-252-1625
In a city with distinctive neighborhood restaurants, this is one of the best (and therefore worth a trip out of yours).

Arlequin Food To Go 384 Hayes : San Francisco, CA 94102 : 415-626-1211

Aziza 5800 Geary : San Francisco, CA 94121 : 415-752-2222
Over Aziza's lifespan, the restaurant has undergone a quasi-mystical metamorphosis: What started out as San Francisco's best Moroccan restaurant, serving refined versions of classic salads and tajines, has turned into one of the city's best restaurants, period. Chef-owner Mourad Lahlou has... More >>

Baker and Banker 1701 Octavia : San Francisco, CA 94109 : 415-351-2500

Banker prefers to call his seasonal, local food... More >>

Bar Jules 609 Hayes : San Francisco, CA 94102 : 415-621-5482
A lovely small restaurant in Hayes Valley that changes its entire menu virtually every day (check the blackboard on the Web site to find out what's cooking), in response to what's fresh and local and the whim of owner-chef Jessica Boncutter. The menu is tightly focused: usually there's a soup,... More >>

Bar Tartine 561 Valencia : San Francisco, CA 94110 : 415-487-1600

Opened just two doors down from Perbacco on California Street, Umberto Gibin and Staffan Terje's spinoff wine bar and casual restaurant is all about the filigree that surrounds Perbacco's renowned Northern Italian food: the wine list, the housemade salumi, the scrupulously curated cheeses, and...

Benu 22 Hawthorne : San Francisco, CA 94105 : 415-685-4860
At Benu, former French Laundry chef de cuisine Corey Lee is developing a distinct language, both visual and culinary, within the conventions of haute cuisine. The luxury the room cultivates - stark, serene - is the feel of a shopping spree at Roche Bobois rather than a San Francisco Opera... More >>

Bix Restaurant 56 Gold : San Francisco, CA 94102 : 415-433-6300

The Blue Plate 3218 Mission : San Francisco, CA 94110 : 415-282-6777
Blue Plate has long been a new American diner full of surprises.

Bocadillos 710 Montgomery : San Francisco, CA 94111 : 415-982-2622
The ambitions of this small, stylish spot are much more modest than at owner Gerald Hirigoyen's Piperade, but the food is as big in flavor. The lunch menu is mostly bocadillos, small but hearty sandwiches you order two at a time from a list of a dozen; at night, the menu is mostly tapas.... More >>

Boxing Room 399 Grove : San Francisco, CA 94102 : 415-430-6590
There may be zydeco on the soundtrack and "Let the bons temps rouler" on the menu at this Hayes Valley restaurant, but otherwise, the stylish Boxing Room largely avoids Cajun and Creole cliches. Louisiana-born chef Justin Simoneaux sticks to the Southern palate he grew up with, but plays down... More >>

Broken Record 1166 Geneva : San Francisco, CA 94112 : 415-963-1713
The Broken Record balances itself nicely along the fence between low-brow and highbrow cultures: tattooed bartenders, indie/alt-rock on the stereo, and cheap Pabst keep things unpretentious, while the wall of fine whiskeys and delicious homemade food attract those whose palates wouldn't be...

Bund Shanghai 640 Jackson : San Francisco, CA 94133 : 415-982-0618
Bund Shanghai, opened at the beginning of 2009, is that rare find: a superb Chinese restaurant in Chinatown.

Burma Superstar 309 Clement : San Francisco, CA 94118 : 415-387-2147

Cafe Jacqueline 1454 Grant : San Francisco, CA 94133 : 415-981-5565
The reason that this quirky little French restaurant still shows up in most-romantic-restaurant lists isn't the fact that Jacqueline Margulis makes each of the savory and sweet soufflés on her short menu for two people. It's that diners are there for the evening, spending a few hours splitting... More >>
