Justine Sun Dela Cruz presents bioplastic lamps made from turmeric, matcha, and cornstarch across both floors this Halloween weekend. Hanging and standing lamps from collaborating artists let light pass through the handmade material to reveal its bubbles and rippled surfaces.
A converted shoe store on Mission Street with 20-foot ceilings, original 1920s wood joists, and kokedamas hanging from steel scaffolding, the room earns its "Greenhouse" nickname before the first plate hits the table. The California-seasonal menu weaves in Iranian flavors through dishes like roasted delicata squash with chermoula, spicy potatoes with dilly labneh, and lamb flatbreads with harissa, all backed by a rotating natural wine list. Live music, DJs, and pop-ups are a regular occurrence, so it's worth checking the calendar before you go.
