A San Francisco standby that has held the same line for years. The part I care about is the artichoke: in season, the grilled artichoke leaves are worth trying. It belongs to a chain but doesn't feel like one — brisk service, comfortable tables. It isn't cheap, which is worth knowing before you go.

A San Francisco standby, best in artichoke season
Good to know
- Grilled artichokes are seasonal; when they're off the menu, the spinach-artichoke dip is always there.
- Evenings can fill up, so a reservation makes things easier.
