25 Essential Peninsula Restaurants

"Terún was born 10 years ago from a mission to make the best Neopolitan pizza in California. Though the name of the restaurant insinuates a more pejorative term toward people of Southern Italy, the founders wanted to redefine that word — paying homage to their hometown with a classic Italian menu of pasta, steak, fish, cocktails, and a great selection of wines. The wood-fired pizzas are the stars of the show, as they feature imported salsiccia, mozzarella, and tomato sauce, along with the high-quality Farina Petra flour. Customers also frequently order the gnocchi in taleggio cheese sauce, brussel sprouts, rigatoni bolognese, and short rib ravioli." - Cathy Park
