"Flour + Water has crossed over from being a great restaurant to being a city-defining one. Whenever you eat pasta in SF, you’ll be mentally comparing it to your last experience here. The restaurant itself is easygoing, but still feels like somewhere you’d go for a special occasion—and some corn cappelletti or garganelli with braised rabbit. If you’re serious about pasta, the pasta tasting menu is $139 per person, but there’s nothing wrong with a la carte. Or if you’d rather take home their fresh pasta and sauces and cook it all at home yourself, hit up Flour + Water Pasta Shop (also in the Mission) to stock up on provisions." - julia chen 1, lani conway, ricky rodriguez
