Rank 3. Aziza
Moroccan
Chef Mourad Lahlou returns with pale interiors and a restless menu that folds California ingredients into Moroccan spices—the phyllo-wrapped basteeya with chicken and almonds proves some dishes need no reinvention. Bone-in chicken thigh arrives with crisp potato and house curry, a dish that tastes like a chef remembering what he does best.

Rank 4. Tommy’s
Mexican
Tommy's is a no-frills Mexican restaurant on Geary that's been around forever, and the red pleather booths and complimentary shredded-lettuce salad will make you feel like you time-traveled. The real draw is the bar, where Julio runs one of the most serious tequila collections in the country and will happily school you on agave until you forget what you came in for. Regulars and converts fill the room in equal measure.

Rank 5. Outerlands
American
At the edge of the city, in a weathered wood room, Outerlands bakes sourdough that draws pilgrims from across San Francisco—mahogany-dark, thickly sliced, served with house-cultured butter. The seasonal kitchen keeps things simple: roasted chicken with market vegetables, ragu Bolognese with tagliatelle, weekend pastries—each dish a vehicle for ingredient quality rather than technique.

Vietnamese
Thanh Long is the Vietnamese restaurant that basically invented the garlic noodle, and people have been making the trek out to the Outer Sunset for decades to prove it. Everyone gets a bib, nobody complains. The move is roast Dungeness crab drowned in butter and garlic, with those noodles on the side, non-negotiable. It's a full-contact dinner, and the room is full of people who knew exactly what they were signing up for.

A lively neighborhood spot housed in a vintage drugstore, Pearl 6101 pairs an airy dining room and warm service with a sharp Italian wine list and Cal-Italian cooking. Handkerchief pastas swim in creamy Bolognese, caramelle burst with crescenza, and roasted sweet potato arrives dressed in miso tahini—each plate feels both rustic and considered.

Burrata arrives with fried butter beans and strawberries; seaweed noodles swim in brown butter and dashi. The Liberty Farms duck, crowned with crispy peanut fried rice, is a showstopper designed to turn heads.

Italian
Suzette Gresham's A-frame dining room has sheltered ambitious Italian cooking since 1989, where handmade pastas and pristine seafood arrive with equal finesse and daring.

Burmese
Mandalay has been around forever and still carries itself like it knows something the newer spots don't. This is a casual neighborhood Burmese restaurant on the Inner Richmond, the kind of place regulars treat like a second kitchen. The tea leaf salad is the real reason to go, built closer to what you'd actually find in Myanmar than anywhere else in the Bay Area. Bring someone curious and order widely.

The crowd is a warm mix of regulars who know exactly what they want and newcomers slowing down to read the case. Save room for cake.

Mediterranean
In the Presidio's leafy quiet, Laura and Sayat Ozyilmaz have built something unmissable: a restaurant where Istanbul's flavors—borek, short rib kebabs with sweetbreads, a rolling spread of olives and pickles—arrive at tables meant for sharing. The pita, baked to order in the hearth, arrives pillowy and toasty, a small daily miracle that sets the tone for everything that follows.

South Indian
Chef Srijith Gopinathan channels Kerala's coastal traditions in a lush Fillmore Street dining room designed for lingering. A shell-on Konkan crab curry glistens with tamarind and dried chiles; fried chicken carries the perfume of street-food memory. The food wears its nostalgia unselfconsciously, indifferent to the room's contemporary gloss.

Steakhouse
A classic SF steakhouse that's been around forever and shows zero interest in changing. The drill is simple: a salad spun tableside in an icy metal bowl, then a carving cart rolls up and someone in a white coat slices you a serious slab of roast beef with potato and gravy. The room is dark, the martinis are cold, and everyone is dressed like they're celebrating something, even if they're not.

The cozy intimacy here feels earned rather than affected.

The Gold Mirror is a classic red-sauce Italian that's been around forever on Taraval, and it recently came back from a big remodel looking genuinely elegant, all oxblood marble and moody merlot walls. The regulars who never opened the menu are still in their usual seats, which tells you something. The kitchen will make veal saltimbocca even though it's not listed, but you have to ask nicely, so now you know.

A place that has earned its reputation through constancy rather than pretense.

Tiny counter-diner on California Street that's been around forever and runs almost entirely on one woman's cooking.

The combo plates feed you properly for next to nothing, and the imperial rolls are the crunchiest thing you'll eat all week. Twelve seats total, so don't be precious about sharing space with strangers.
