Description:
MISSION DISTRICT. Charanga adds a Latin twist to San Francisco's melting pot of restaurants. Reasonably priced dishes are a great find and include patatas à la brava (fried potatoes with tomato dipping sauce) and grilled pork chops with potatoes and green beans (which gain kick with a passion-fruit jerk sauce). In fact, many dishes pair meats, seafood, and rustic bases with a sweet-tinged accompaniment, creating a terrific combination of flavors. |

Description:
SOMA. Burnished walls and chunky wood furniture hint at Maya's Mexican heritage, but the inspiration absolutely bursts forth in the Nuevo Latino cuisine. Earthy flavors and the chef's sure hand distinguish the wonderful dishes, which include lamb sirloin with adobo red wine sauce, pan-roasted red snapper, and lobster and shrimp marinated in achiote paste and served with roasted corn puree. Three-course prix fixe menus, available at lunch and dinner, make for affordable dining, and complimentary appetizers served during happy hour promise savory nibbling. |

Description:
EMBARCADERO. This friendly restaurant, located at the Embarcadero, is just two blocks from the "New" Giants Stadium and offers great bay views. Brunch is a near-perfect experience, according to regulars. Baskets of home-baked breads, smoked mozzarella frittata, crab cakes, and oatmeal pancakes studded with nuts and fruit are constant favorites. Although the wait can be long (other folks know about Town's End's appeal too!), brunch is well worth the delay. |
