"Your Order: Spicy Tuna (but, really, choose your own adventure) This counter-service spot in Russian Hill feels like a deli in the middle of Wine Country. It’s the answer if lunch is quickly approaching and you think, “I really need a great salad and I really want a bunch of options.” Have a Choose Your Own Adventure-style salad and add on a bunch of extras, or go with a set combo from the menu, like the standout spicy tuna tartare with crispy soba, mangos, edamame, and miso-ginger vinaigrette. The bowls are all sizable and they don’t skimp on the ingredients—which certainly helps to justify the $20-ish per salad you’ll end up spending. " - julia chen 1, lani conway, ricky rodriguez
