Description:
SOMA. Take organic ingredients, superb wines, a chef's sure hand, and a sleek, romantic dining room. Then impart everything with the cachet that comes from affiliation with Mayor Gavin Newsom, and you've got a hint of what Jack Falstaff is all about. The menu is rustic but sophisticated, composed of offerings like quince-glazed Arctic char, five-spice duck breast, slow-roasted pork and seared sea scallops. Artisan cheeses and decadent, organic desserts like lavender crème brûlée and bananas Foster bread pudding also make a satisfying appearance. Great wines are priced just above retail. |

Description:
EMBARCADERO. Warmed by wood detailing and golden-hued lighting, Piperade is as inviting as a friend's home, and its sociability is just as great. Impeccable cuisine is also of enormous appeal. The chef often comes out to chat with guests and share information about food and wine, and his expertise is justified by dishes like braised rabbit, tuna and potato soup, and veal sweetbreads. Marinated lamb chops and steamed snapper are among the large plate offerings; small plates include artisan foie gras and squid, Dungeness crab salad, and garlic soup with rock shrimp and bacon. Desserts are crafted with just as sure a hand, and wines embrace the Basque region, France, Spain and California. |

Description:
UNION SQUARE. This downtown restaurant, the brainchild of celebrity chef Wolfgang Puck, specializes in wonderfully flavorful cuisine.

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

Description:
HAYES VALLEY. This much-loved mainstay has evolved into one of San Fran's favorite restaurants. The interior features Southwestern accents, but the food takes cues from California, France, Italy, and the Mediterranean. Fresh oysters at the bar make a good introduction, and the Caesar salad is famous far and wide. Other menu staples include duck breast and the signature roasted chicken (prepared to order). You'll also want to try house-cured anchovies and sourdough bread with the rest of the hip clientele. |

Description:
HAYES VALLEY. Absinthe recalls the days of Dorothy Parker and her circle of witty, sardonic critics. Along with dicing celebrities, they took great pleasure in good food and drink. Plenty of both can be found here, and weekend brunch is especially delightful. Champagne and wines balance the cuisine, which includes cold seafood platters, imported French cheeses, and coq au vin. A tasty caesar salad and a risotto with fava beans, basil, and parmesan are also great options. To sum up – absolutely faultless! |
