The Bay Area

The Map

Food is the beating heart of the Bay Area. From trendy newcomers to hole-in-the-wall institutions, to eat here is to experience a place in constant transition. Beyond cioppino and crusty sourdough, Mission burritos and Michelin stars, you’ll find soul warming pho, million ingredient mole, funky tea leaf salad, hand-pulled noodles, handmade pasta and way way more. After close to a decade of calling this magical place home, I’ve collected my favorite spots on one map, which you can explore by cuisine, price range, vibe and craveability score. Click each pin for my $0.02 on why each spot is so very special (plus some other helpful planning info). Updated regularly!
