Campton Place Restaurant |
|
(Restaurants - Breakfast) |

|
|
Distance:
~0.29 mi * |
|
|
 |
| |
Description:
UNION SQUARE. Peaceful, romantic Campton Place sits within a European-style luxury hotel, a fact not unnoticed in the restaurant's Continental cuisine. Swiss-born chef Daniel Humm places a premium on simple, high-quality ingredients, and his affinity for Provençal dishes is evident in glazed Barberie duck with lavender honey and herb-roasted squab with spring onion tarte tatin. Seafood is also a treat in Humm's confident hands, whether it be butter-poached Maine lobster or salt-crusted Mediterannean branzino with Meyer lemon confit. Great service ramps up the desirability, and the experience is more than worth the expense. |

It's served upstairs in the bar until 11:30pm. |

Description:
UNION SQUARE. A bird's-eye view of the Bay and the city greets diners at this elegant, 46th-floor restaurant. Windows stretch 14 feet high to encompass the sights, and when night falls, the scenery is especially spectacular. Although hard-pressed to compete with the views, the California cuisine holds its own admirably. Steaks and seafood are prominent, along with duck and lamb, and after-dinner dancing is reason to linger into the night. Sunday's champagne brunch buffet also finds much favor with patrons in the know, and it provides a terrific chance to see the skyline by day. |

Description:
THE TENDERLOIN. A little homey, a little kitschy and a lot of good. If you crave homemade breakfast foods and substantial portions, Dottie's is definitely the place to go. In the morning, wonderful pancakes, French toast, frittatas and baked goods bring satisfied grins to hungry, appreciative patrons. As noontime rolls around, sandwiches, salads and hamburgers take center stage. Although Dottie's isn't in San Francisco's best neighborhood, fans don't seem to mind. The charming diner is one you won't want to miss. |

Description:
NORTH BEACH. In the 1950s, this original North Beach location was the first on the West Coast to offer espresso, fast becoming a "beatnik" hot spot. The beans were roasted and prepared by Italian immigrant Giovanni Giotta, who's still at the helm, along with his wife and kids. Coffee lovers find great cappuccino, along with muffins, sandwiches, salads, and pizzas. In keeping with tradition, there's live music every Saturday. A classy, relaxed café equally suited for idle afternoons. |
