"The four-course dinner at this spot where Chinatown, North Beach, and FiDi meet won’t blow your mind, but it doesn’t have to—it’s $45 per person, and the most bang-for-your-buck tasting menu in the area. The cozy American restaurant changes the menu often, but you’re still likely to see crowd-pleasers like butternut squash soup and cider-brined pork loin, plus a pasta course." - julia chen 1, patrick wong
