The 18 Best Restaurants In The Castro - San Francisco - The Infatuation

"As far as local, seasonal new American restaurants go, there aren't many in the city worth fussing about. Except for Frances. This white-walled spot isn’t serving anything radical, but everything is done exceedingly well, from a fennel soup that warms you up on a foggy day to the housemade sourdough that's one of the most pillowy breads we’ve had in recent memory. The reginette is simple but takes care of your pasta needs, and the black cod is wonderfully cooked alongside crisp asparagus." - lani conway, julia chen 1, ricky rodriguez
