Where To Eat When You're Visiting San Francisco
"It’s hard to explain the food at Liholiho Yacht Club in one sentence, so we’ll use this one instead: Get here, now. Hawaiian, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean influences color the punchy, in-your-face dishes at this Lower Nob Hill spot—silky shaved pig’s head slices are served with a zippy frisee and asian pear salad, and ribeye is charred and topped with a nose-clearing mustard and black sesame sauce. Digging into a spread while surrounded by a buzzing open kitchen, a massive mural of the chef’s mom, and desserts with birthday sparklers is always a good time. If you can’t get a reservation here, we also love their more casual sister restaurant, Good Good Culture Club, which has equally exciting dishes and a colorful rooftop patio." - julia chen 1, lani conway, ricky rodriguez
