More Eat Local in San Francisco

Heirloom Café Californian restaurant
Heirloom Café was founded with two concurrent ambitions: to offer a wide variety of aged wines from a carefully managed cellar, and to serve simple, very well-prepared food at reasonable prices.
Zuni Café Californian restaurant
Bustling, bi-level bistro serving famous roast chicken & other seasonal wood-fired eats.
The Anchovy Bar Californian restaurant
The Anchovy Bar is a wine and seafood bar that specializes in West Coast oysters, small fish and sustainably raised shellfish. We work with small producers that favor traditional and antique processes with origin stories that matter and inspire, such as anchovies from Cantabria and L'Escala, Spain and the Amalfi Coast in Italy...sea salts from centuries old salt beds in Sicily...soy and fish sauces produced in the old-world style...essentially ingredients with a strong sense of place, including those from our own 'backyard'. Our pastry kitchen is hard at work baking the breads, crackers and composing beautiful desserts.
ATWater Tavern Californian restaurant
Within earshot of the roar of the Giants crowd and the horns of the tugboats setting out for the bay, you can't get more San Francisco than our new Mission Rock spot, ATwater Tavern. Everything from our menu to our name is a nod to classic San Francisco, and you're sure to hear a few jams from the Haight hay day playing through our speakers. Enjoy locally-sourced dishes and our one-of-a-kind cocktails created by the very people who mix 'em. In addition to brunch and happy hour, we'd be honored to host a private party or event for you and your co-workers!
TRACE Californian restaurant
From boozy brunch to power lunch, TRACE elevates the downtown San Francisco restaurant scene. Serving breakfast, lunch, dinner and weekend brunch, the fab restaurant boasts curated cocktails and seasonal menus crafted with local, sustainable ingredients.
The Fly Trap Californian restaurant
Experience a slice of San Francisco’s history at The Fly Trap, an iconic restaurant since 1883. Nestled in the vibrant Yerba Buena Garden District and just a stone’s throw from the Moscone Center and the Modern Museum of Art, The Fly Trap has been a gastronomic landmark since the late 1800’s. Its distinctive moniker harks back to a time when horse-drawn carriages filled the streets, and the original owner creatively used fly traps to protect food displays. Over 140 years later, The Fly Trap continues to celebrate San Francisco’s rich heritage. Join us and be a part of our enduring legacy!
