"Prelude, located inside the Jay hotel, offers a fine dining experience that blends Southern grandma fare with California agriculture. Chef Celtin Hendrickson-Jones draws from family recipes and his experiences at prestigious venues like Niku Steakhouse and Morimoto. The decor, led by Sergio Mondragon of AvroKO, is inspired by the eucalyptus groves of the Presidio, featuring eucalyptus wood and custom-designed elements. Prelude stands out in San Francisco's dining scene with its elevated and unique approach." - Dianne de Guzman
