"Pizza and natural wine spots in SF are as common as Teslas with customized license plates—and among the best of them is Woods Lowside. This is the Lower Haight’s group hang spot, thanks to comfortable booths, a back patio that’s no stranger to orange wine-soaked birthday parties, and food by Joyride Pizza. Their Detroit-style pies on focaccia crusts are fantastic, as are snacks like garlic knots, brussels sprouts, and bright salads. Throw some beer and funky wine into the equation, and the odds are high that you’ll find yourself here until closing." - ricky rodriguez, lani conway, julia chen 1
