Best Restaurants in San Francisco 2025: Michelin Stars, Taquerias & Bay Views

San Francisco's restaurant scene is one of America's finest — the birthplace of Alice Waters' California cuisine and the farm-to-table movement, home to more Michelin stars per capita than almost any American city, and blessed with proximity to extraordinary produce from the Bay Area's farms, dairies, and Pacific fishing fleet. From the legendary carne asada tacos of the Mission to the exceptional Japanese omakase of SoMa and the three-Michelin-star tasting menus of Benu and The French Laundry in nearby Yountville, SF eating is exceptional.
