When you live in San Francisco, you know good food, and so too do the fine folks over at the Michelin guide. The standard for fine dining excellence has looked at our city's restaurants and it has found us winning. San Fran has not one but three three-star eateries, all of which take a contemporary look at traditionally fantastic flavors.
We're on the cutting edge of California cuisine. In fact, 10 of the restaurants to earn Michelin stars of the total 34 boast Californian as their style. Being a multi-cultural hub, our top chefs also offer fresh takes on French, Indian, Thai, Mexican, Middle Eastern, Moroccan and Japanese influences.
Whether you're looking to be wow-ed by technique or get cozy with some comfort food, San Francisco's Michelin-starred restaurants will not disappoint. Hit the streets and give each menu a try.
