San Francisco is a huge city in the United States, with a developed infrastructure and an incredible number of entertainment centers. Of course, restaurants and cafes there are a lot, almost 5000! It is impossible to tell everyone, so, a little about some.
To start, Dear elegant restaurants:
SAISON (178 Townsend St.)
To go to this restaurant, it is no longer visited in a very cool art space built on the site of an old brick warehouse. The magnificent interior, a huge area of the room is a solid pleasure. Absolutely unique design hall-wooden beams, Scandinavian style chairs, a chef's table in the guests of guests of the hall. Friendly waiters will tell me what is better to eat and as it is, in fact. The restaurant menu is a large selection of dishes from all over the world, and the dishes here come across completely fantastic - up to edible colors. We try to cod with coconut sauce, banana chips with Thai spices, and even stuffed with mushrooms of pigeons. Desserts are also unforgettable. In this restaurant you can dine from Tuesday to Saturday. And also, do not forget to grab more money - everything is very expensive here. This, by the way, a restaurant, awarded star Michelin.
"LUCE" (888 Howard St.)
The restaurant is located on the first floor of the InterContinental Hotel, so that you can expect only the highest marks from the restaurant. The decor of the elegant, stylish-sinking inlaid floors and windows are a continuation of the marble lobby, plus modern touches of pole and white lamps, translucent silvery curtains, and calla in black vases on each table. The restaurant serves guests living in the hotel, as well as guests from the street. The best time to visit is the evening when the restaurant begins to truly shine the assortment of modern American cooking. We try to ravioli with ricotta and minced meat from ducky with truffles. Do not pass by fried ceskens and home sausages with potato mashed potatoes and green. Each element of each dish isamo. For dessert, be sure to try cake-meringue with fresh fruits and blueberries, called "Pavlov", and ice cream with cedar nuts. In general, everything is unrealistic and tasty. And expensive, of course. The restaurant is also awarded the star Michelin.
"STATE BIRD PROVISIONS" (1529 Fillmore St.)
This is an expensive restaurant of modern kitchen under the guidance of a couple. Do not say that the restaurant's room is so clean. No, pretty simple. But the range of dishes is an exploratory, striking variety of ingredients and cooking methods. Everything is tasty here, from juicy pickled curry scallops with mashed potatoes to tasty and simple paste with cheese of Burrrat and garlic bread. The menu offers more options, such as grilled quail or fried pork breast with an unusual combination of citrus, herbs and spices. Plus, in this restaurant you can taste great wines. In general, the restaurant is really worth visiting. He has numerous awards, they constantly write about him in the press, and sometimes there are long queues, so, book a table in advance. The restaurant is open from Monday to Saturday. By the way, the prices there are slightly lower than in the two previous restaurants.
"Acquerello" (1722 Sacramento St.)
Not bad Italian restaurant in the beautiful area of the city. I do not say that the restaurant is located in the old chapel. However, as soon as you find yourself inside and you see these vaulted ceilings and golden walls, you understand that it was not right. Designed in an old classic style, the cafe is suitable for real fans of high-quality food and luxury. Everything in this restaurant is like from the last century. Impressive wine list. A comprehensive lunch may be quite familiar, classic, but seasonal dishes are absolutely amazing and unique. Starting from soup with octopus, young potatoes with chickpeas and basil and paprika, nickees fried to caramel, which are simply melted in the mouth, and which are served with gentle meat with mushroom filling. Do not forget about snacks, for example, Kuzi cheese with mushrooms and honey-chestnut meringues, and desserts (we try the vanilla panna-cott). Leave a place in the stomach for exquisite cookies, chocolate and caramel. In general, the perfect place for a romantic meeting! The restaurant works from Tuesday to Saturday. Prices there are high enough.
And here is another couple of interesting places:
"CIGAR BAR & Grill" (850 Montgomery Street)
A great place where you can go to smoke, eat and listen to the melodies of hot jazz. Pretty modest outside and pleasant bar from the inside in Spanish style. Those who want to intercept a cocktail or have a drink that is stronger, you can move the bar counter. There is a billiard room with a raspberry billion table, as well as from Thursday to Saturday, there are parties of salsa and latin. The room is quite large and calmly accommodates the crowds of guests. It is clear from the name that you can buy and smoke a cigar, but in general, you can always bring our cigars. And yet, the place is clearly not for those who do not tolerate tobacco smoke. As for the menu, then the dishes of American and Latin cuisine are preparing, so, we try the fried ribs, Cesadille and steaks. Happy watches from Monday to Friday from 4 to 7 pm. The entrance fee begins at 9:30 pm on Friday and Saturday - $ 7 and $ 10, respectively. Snacks here are $ 6 - $ 10, dishes $ 12 - $ 22,

It is located on the fashionable Hayes Street, the "Art Street", which lovers of classical music and ballet lovers so love.
