Golden Boy Pizza
A gold rush
"Golden Boy Pizza" is far and away the best pizza place in San Francisco. I know this is a bold claim, but everything about it is perfection...

Godzilla Sushi
Small but mighty
"Godzilla Sushi" San Francisco is my favorite sushi place, because it is a refreshing break from the trend. It's very cheap. And the wine is even cheaper!

Front Porch
Stay for the bourbon
The "Front Porch" is my favorite place in San Francisco for Southern cuisine. And... bourbon! They offer at least 5 different brands of bourbon at a time.

Frances
Table wine is a must
"Frances" San Francisco is my go-to restaurant for out of town guests or a nice night out in Castro. Great locally-sourced food & wine, and affordable too!

Roosevelt Sip N Eat
Back in the game
"Roosevelt Sip N Eat" San Francisco has two things going for it: the tamales and the charm. Roosevelt's has been a staple in the Mission for over 80 years.

El Metate
Authentic and simple
"El Metate" San Francisco is my favorite place for tacos. And as local as it gets. I take tacos very seriously. Some may say too seriously...
