"Pearl 6101 is our favorite spot in the Richmond for a glass of wine and a cute evening meet-up, even if you have to cross six neighborhoods to get there. The bar and restaurant keeps its lights at a constant romantic dim, and the space is usually filled with dates splitting white bolognese or solo diners becoming friends at the bar. Get the crispy prosciutto-filled caesar, a salad MVP." - julia chen 1, lani conway, ricky rodriguez, patrick wong
