Restaurants in San Francisco, California

The foggy city of San Francisco is the perfect excuse to explore the restaurants and bars that line the streets of the city. Almost all the cities in California have come up with fine dining restaurants that mix and match cuisines to appeal to its hetero-cultural consumers. But San Francisco takes the game a notch higher and serves a wider palate. For one, the vegetarian menus here are as varied and experimental as their non vegetarian counterparts. Most restaurants source food locally, but the inspiration for the dish is global. Oriental food is Americanized with Chinese restaurants serving dishes like beer brined sichuan pickles, and Italian and French recipes are prepared to perfection with homegrown products. San Francisco offers everything from modern Vietnamese to contemporary Amercian, and even African and Moroccan specialties. With so many great eateries coming up in the area, restaurants have started differentiating themselves based on décor, innovative menus, incredible dishes like caviar, veal and chocolate cremeux. You name an edible item and some restaurant here in San Francisco will have it- be it salmon, cod, duckbreast, lamb or the famous meaty Dungeness crab. There are restaurants here serving the best wines of Napa valley, and cuisines from Campania.

As you move about this picturesque city in the beautiful cable cars making trips to the Aquarium of the Bay, the Exploratorium, and of course the Golden Gate Park, the Ocean Beach, San Francisco’s Chinatown, and Alamo Square Park, here is a list of restaurants that will complete the experience.
