"Backyard barbecues are as synonymous with summer as painful coming-of-age romcoms. But thanks to San Francisco, your landlord doesn’t allow you to grill on your roof, even though it seems totally sane on your end. That’s when we head to 4505. They make some of our favorite BBQ in the city, and if going in on a few pounds of brisket isn’t your idea of fun, they also make an excellent burger. Pair that with their only-outdoor seating and the only thing missing from this ideal “backyard” party is a slip ’n slide." - will kamensky
