- OTOpenTable DinerSan Francisco Bay Area •1 review5.0Dined 2 days agoMy friends and I were able to get a reservation on the 1st of October and it was one of the best experiences we’ve had. We had a 9pm reservation but they were able to let us dine around 8:30pm. Staff were very kind, ambiance was great, and food was amazing. Hector cut our meat and he was very amiable and really funny! Overall, the experience was 10/10. Worth the wait!More infoHouse of Prime RibPrice: Very Expensive• Steak• Civic Center / Hayes Valley / Van Ness•4.8

- DDawnSan Francisco Bay Area •5 reviews4.0Dined on Sep 22, 2024Loved the music they were playing, but I literally had to yell to talk to my friends, and missed much of what was being said at the table. Service was friendly, but felt only mildly attentive and it seemed messages weren't communicated across staff (I'd called earlier regarding seating, was told I'd be seated at one particular table, but when I arrived, was told that information wasn't shared, so was sat at another less desirable table). Food was delicious, and right within our budget.More infoBeretta DivisaderoPrice: Moderate• Italian• North Panhandle / USF•4.5

Discover NOPA
The area “north of the Panhandle” is one of the hippest hotbeds in SF, with a food scene that’s as eclectic as the color combinations on the nearby Painted Ladies. Focused mostly around Divisadero Street, NOPA is known for cafes that churn out thick-cut toast slathered with artisanal toppings, and more savory options—from BBQ to farm-to-table dining that helped put the neighborhood on the map. Dive bars, oyster houses, and local mainstays add to the energy of this central San Francisco hub, reflecting the different flavors of the city as longtime institutions mixed with new favorites that pop up faster each day. After getting a bite, be sure to explore Alamo Square for postcard perfect views of downtown—and 90’s pop culture appeal.
