On average, our SF team visits over 75 restaurants per month. Whether we’re checking out openings (and adding the highlights to the Hit List) or hitting up classics that have been around since before BART broke ground, we do a lot of eating. These are the dishes that stand out from the rest—the ones where we’d spend our own money on our off nights, and that you should go get for yourself, immediately.
