San Francisco has no shortage of restaurants. Whatever your food preferences are, this diverse city caters to your every need with every type of cuisine you can imagine. It doesn’t matter if you are in the mood for Italian, French, Chinese, Mexican, good old American food, or any other, dining in San Francisco is sure to be a dining experience you will never forget. You might only spend a few dollars for the meal of your choice, or the price may amount to a small fortune, depending on where you choose to dine.
Many restaurants, especially those that are high end require a reservation, sometimes even months ahead of time. Getting a reservation at restaurants such as Masa’s in Nob Hill and Gary Danko, a restaurant located between North Beach and Fisherman’s Wharf borders on the impossible so if you manage to obtain one, make sure it doesn’t go to waste. Gary Danko is a restaurant established by an award winning chef of the same name and at approximately $100 per person for a full meal, it is still something you don’t want to miss.
Locally grown fresh produce and organic ingredients are widely used in restaurants, as much attention is paid to preparing healthy dishes. San Francisco’s restaurants are well prepared to satisfy the needs of vegans and vegetarians with over 30 vegan and 90 vegetarian restaurants. Sushi is extremely popular and although you can find it almost anywhere the best places are in the Richmond district. The restaurant Ebisu is praised for it’s sushi. Dim sum along with other Chinese dishes is also easily found due to SF’s Chinatown, the largest in North America. While in Chinatown and in the mood for Chinese food you might want to visit Sam Wo where the service is terrible but the food is great, or if you are in the mood for American food make it BurgerMeister, where they have the best burgers at reasonable prices. Italian restaurants are mostly located in North Beach. In the Mission district Latin American and Mexican cuisine is the most prominent, and restaurants such as Mariachis and Puerto Alegre lead the pack. For seafood, it is best to head out to the Fisherman’s Wharf district where it is served deliciously in restaurants such as Pier Market and McCormik and Kuleto’s. On the pricy side is Castagnola’s which was voted the No.1 Seafood and Family Restaurant in 1998.
It is hard to name all the good places to eat in San Francisco, there are just too many!
