SoMa, San Francisco · bar
A counter-service Mexican bar with industrial-garage bones and a crowd that shows up for the pint first and the food second — though both earn the loyalty. The Drive-In Cheeseburger — griddled bun, American cheese, pickles, house sauce — has quietly become one of the best in the city, and the Zapato, Garaje’s own pressed steak-and-guac creation with a crunchy corn tortilla shell, makes a case for staying another round.
