The Progress

Get A Table At The Hottest Restaurants In San Francisco With Chase Sapphire Reserve - San Francisco - The Infatuation

"We’d hike the Crosstown Trail—and endure the resulting blisters—to get our hands on the duck from The Progress. The smoky slices and peanut fried rice are last-meal-in-the-city worthy. The seasonal restaurant is right next to their sister spot, State Bird Provisions, with more space and a fancier vibe. Their high-ceilinged, airy dining room with teak wood detailing feels like a coastal getaway, ideal for digging into a spread of porcini toasts, anchovy sambal clams, and caviar potato clouds." - team infatuation

Here Are All the Michelin Starred Restaurants in the San Francisco Bay Area | Eater SF

"Just next door to sister restaurant State Bird, the Progress has another star in its own right, and the big duck platter and peanut milk aren’t to be missed. (1 star)" - Eater Staff

"Located around the corner from the epoch-making Fillmore Theater, this sunny NorCal-meets-Nordic destination is as disarming as it is ambitious. The space is two stories of wood, stone and tile with greenery and skylights throughout, and an eager crowd flocks here for all occasions. Colorful, vibrant dishes designed for sharing rise to the formidable task of tasting as good as they look, so order with abandon. Original, boldly seasoned plates, like burrata with fried butter beans and Yerena Farms strawberries, or seaweed noodles with brown butter and dashi, are promising starts. Somebody has to order the Liberty Farms duck, a show-stopping feast complete with a mountain of crispy, peanut fried rice that draws eyes as it moves through the dining room." - Michelin Inspector
