This San Francisco institution specializes in contemporary comfort food, where seasonal California produce meets classic diner techniques. The Dungeness crab benedict is a standout, featuring succulent meat poached to a delicate translucence and draped in a velvety, citrus-forward hollandaise that cuts through the richness.

The kitchen’s reliance on local sourcing ensures that even simple dishes, like the avocado toast with radish and sprouts, possess a vibrant freshness. Each plate is presented with an unpretentious elegance, emphasizing the natural textures and clean flavors of the Bay Area’s exceptional agricultural heritage.
