SoMa, San Francisco ยท restaurant
Dark walls, colorful artwork, and a garden patio that stays festive rather than hushed. Unusual for a two-Michelin-star room. The cuisine is called California Mexican: seasonal tasting menu courses that pull from regional Mexican traditions and dress them in Bay Area ingredients, like the chilapita (a tiny masa chip from Guerrero) arriving under a swirl of sturgeon cream and caviar.
