Fifty Vara

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

"The former Sunset Reservoir building is now revived as Fifty Vara, which is part brewery, part restaurant. Diners can order one of the beers made onsite, such as the house lager, but the bar is also ready with higher-proof cocktails and no-proof drinks if that’s what you’re after. Food-wise, the menu has a sizable amount of small bites perfect for groups gathering for a meal, such as crab fritters and crudo, but heftier items include a pork chop and a burger that is decidedly tavern-style, and not of the smashed style." - Paolo Bicchieri
