Try the beets, fromage blanc, pumpernickel, watercress, sorrel, smoked hay oil - Enjoyed the tasting menu at Commonwealth. Highly recommended!
Outstanding - each dish is packed with distinct flavors. Get the squid and pork belly, the scallops, and the risotto.
Chef Jason Fox harmonizes a dizzying array of int'l ingredients - including sea urchin w/ sweet potato tempura, chrysanthemum leaf, shiso, scallion, & yuzu kosho. Also try the squid & pork belly! Read more.
Grits are super indulgent and delicious. French toast on pumpernickel is a great decision too. Love this place!
Fried, fried, fried deliciousness. The cauliflower is a must! Share the donut burger. Skip the cotton candy cocktail.
Everything gives you a taste of diabetes!
ham-stuffed chicken was amazing. get the grapefruit beer!
I am German; I was born and raised there. This is the best German food I have had in the US! The potato pancakes (Kartoffelpuffer) are better than the ones my mom used to make!
Gotta try their potato pancakes! They are crispy on the outside, creamy on the outside, and come with chive sour cream and applesauce.
grab a loaf, go next door for a wheel of Mt. Tam cheese at Cowgirl Creamery, and find a secluded/scenic spot for a picnic ... one of my favorite meals/experiences in the city!
All that you could ask for in a bread bakery. Each loaf is given special care. The pan de mie are soft and slightly sweet. The walnut levain has a dense, malty crumb inlaid with chopped walnuts. Read more.
Asparagus foccacia is a must, if you like either.
Toasted pumpernickel with whitefish spread or number 4 with sausage on everything. Good coffee. It's pretty warm inside, like a gluten sauna.
Great selection of cream cheeses! Chive and lox spread are my favorite.
The dill cucumber or the pesto garlic are killer on an everything bagel. Don't forget to put a tomato on top!
Pumpernickel bread. Wasabi Trio. Really. Really. Good.
Try the Gyros Breakfast Wrap. Great flavor at a great price.
Yummy hot pastrami! Their whole wheat roll is fresh and soft. Mmmmm :)
Try the Pizza Of The Day - Mushroom, bell peppers, smoked Gouda, parsley, garlic oil. Awesome.
On weekends, there is coffee cake. This coffee cake can probably solve most of the world's problems. You should eat this coffee cake.
Choices like Provolone-Olive bread, Sesame-Sunflower bread, and Corn-Cheddar bread are sold by the pound. If you stop by on a Sunday, make sure to try the Chocolate Cherry Sourdough. Read more.
Best to-go breakfast order in SF: Breakfast sandwich, bacon, cheddar, eggs over hard on an everything bagel.
Try the Pastrami Sandwich
try the Rueben
This place is awesome. They have a lot of organic vegetables and meats and a lot of "ethnic" ingredients. Even some niche stuff (coconut butter, ghee, pumpernickel). Prices are unbelievably low.
Shop and snack: At Duc Loi's new deli, and we recommend the loaded banh mi, fresh shrimp rolls, and sweet sticky rice. Read more.
Surprisingly great selection of veggies and fruits. Don't let the pile of old veggies outside fool you.
Best coffee on chestnut. Best quiche in San Francisco.
Portland comes to you! They serve the awesome Stumptown Coffee here!!!
Really chaotic and disorganized cafe; terrible service, and very dismissive staff. Pastries are really good but overall there are better places.
The New Yorker lox + cream cheese style satisfies that deli style craving. Super friendly too.
Though not a bad place, it's really not made of bagels. AT ALL. It's just normal drywall and such.
Good bagels, slow service -- old guy in line (before storming out): "I was a young man when I came in!" (Made me feel like I was back in NYC.)
Lovingly made in NYC, CHI, SEA & LA
