About this listen
San Francisco’s restaurant landscape in 2025 is every bit as effervescent and unpredictable as the fog rolling off the Bay. Chefs are reimagining comfort food, diners are flocking to the city’s latest culinary playgrounds, and global influences mingle with local harvests in dazzling displays of flavor. If you’re hungry for innovation, this city remains California’s tastiest proving ground.
One of the year’s most buzzworthy newcomers is Bones Bagels, now rooted in Noe Valley after a cult-followed journey that began in an apartment kitchen. Their naturally fermented sourdough bagels come in flavors like salted rosemary or asiago black pepper, but the true scene-stealers are the bagel sandwiches, brimming with smoked fish, locally grown produce, and housemade cream cheese in playful flavors such as chile oil and blueberry. This is old-school craft with a fresh San Francisco kick, where tradition meets West Coast bounty.
Meanwhile, the Ferry Building is having a renaissance as a launchpad for tastemakers. The team behind Michelin-starred Sorrel has just debuted Parachute Bakery, a destination for both classic and experimental pastries built on the back of seasonal, regional ingredients. Expect to see their counters groaning under the weight of gorgeously laminated pastries and inventive nut spreads—a morning-to-afternoon haven for sweet tooths and early commuters alike.
Market Street’s Saluhall is where food hall flavor meets local star power. There, Smish Smash is causing a stir with its Cheeseboiga—a smash burger stuffed with American cheese and secret sauce, best chased with tallow-fried curly fries. Tacos El Último Baile, an Oakland favorite reborn in San Francisco, is serving up brisket tacos with a signature smoky “al carbon” technique, drawing crowds for their authentic devotion and punchy, unfiltered taste.
Dining in San Francisco isn’t just about eating—it’s about spectacle and immersion. Merchant Roots leads an experiential dining revolution with quarterly theme-driven transformations, where the menu, plateware, and even décor change completely, ensuring each visit is a brand new adventure. These meals aren’t just dinners; they’re sensory events you’ll be talking about for months.
New collaborations like Hyphy Burger, born of Oakland roots, and culinary hits like Señor Sisig’s loaded fusion burritos show how the region’s multicultural energy literally spills onto the plate. At the same time, stalwarts such as SPQR and Violet’s are doubling down on local ingredients, hand-pulled pasta, and globally inspired seafood stews, keeping San Francisco’s commitment to culinary excellence alive.
San Francisco’s flavor is unmistakable—a mix of relentless creativity, regional pride, and a readiness to welcome the world to its tables. For food lovers, the city is an endless festival of ideas and experiences, proof that innovation and tradition can hold hands—and sometimes, share a bagel..
