UNION SQUARE. Arguably San Francisco's most expensive restaurant, Masa's is also one of its most celebrated. Its interior is a study of chocolate-brown and ivory, accented with red silk, toile and contemporary artwork. Tasting menus, for which the restaurant is known, display a similar eclecticism, featuring a warm beet salad alongside Key West hogfish or yellowfin sashimi with milkfed capon. You'll also find discreet professional service and plenty of options in the 4-, 6- and 9-course menus, which include dessert and allow for vegetarian preferences. |

Description:
UNION SQUARE. An undersea fantasy world reigns at Farallon, one of undulating curves, glimmering details, and sea-creature accents. It's home to perhaps San Francisco's most famous seafood restaurant, led by chef Mark Franz and specializing in "coastal cuisine." Fresh shellfish starts the meal, followed by grilled Pacific ono, sauteed skate wing, Maine lobster, and prosciutto-wrapped branzino. The popular "seafood pyramid" piles together shrimp, scallops, lobster, julienned leeks, and salmon caviar. Poultry, beef, and veal are also available, along with a decadent dessert list and artisanal cheeses. Menu changes daily. |
