"Michael and Lindsay Tusk reopened their French-style wine bar just north of the Transamerica Pyramid in November 2024, and the response has been ecstatic. Those who remembered the bar’s opening in January 2019 had just a little over a year to enjoy the space before it shut down during the pandemic, but this go-around maintains the aspects of the bar that most enjoyed (read: natural wine, candlelight, the marquee board menu, and the popular Boursin omelet). That doesn’t mean Verjus hasn’t changed at all; the space has shifted back from pandemic-era grocery store back to a sit-down side room, a new DJ booth has been installed, and now there are cocktails from Thad Vogler of Bar Agricole." - Dianne de Guzman
