The Best New Restaurants in San Francisco, July 2025 | Eater SF

"If movies have taught us anything, it’s that a redemption arc can feel satisfying. And so it goes when one of San Francisco’s most beloved pho spots, Turtle Tower, was able to mount a comeback with the original team after being closed for a little over a year. It seemed like a minor miracle. It may feel tempting to compare it to past experiences at the Tenderloin and SoMa locations, but just enjoy the chicken-based pho ga for what it is, now at its spiffier new location on California Street. Spring for the chicken wings if they’re not sold out, and prepare yourself for its newly installed later hours (now closing at 9 p.m. Thursday through Sunday) and upcoming liquor license." - Paolo Bicchieri
