"Opened by Croatian immigrants in 1849, San Francisco’s Tadich Grill ranks as the oldest continuously operating restaurant in California (save for a pandemic pause). For decades this Financial District institution has been one of the best places to try cioppino, a tomato-wine stew brimming with clams, mussels, shrimp, whitefish, and Dungeness crab. The recipe dates back at least 60 years, and decades of experience mean the restaurant’s cioppino is delicious." - Serena Renner
