Going on vacation at the end of July and was looking for some good restaurant recommendations. Can be casual or upscale (Both would be great) I know the F&D will through. TIA

What kind of food are you into? There is such a wide variety that it's really hard to narrow down.

Sushi- Zushi Puzzle on Lombard is awesome .

Italian- Caffe Sport is local, old school and very good.

Chinese-House on Nanking. Walk in and tell them to feed you, then supplement from the menu at the end, if needed. The shrimp app is great. Wonderful little family run joint.

Slanted Door. Vietnamese, I liked the old location better, new one is too big, but food is still great.

Una Pizza Napoletana. Outstanding pizza, but not for everyone. LINK

I went a couple of weeks ago for the first time for work. EPIC was a great place to eat. Delfina pizza was awesome as well.

I've only been once, but I'll share my experience. keep in mind, I'm very, very limited as a food "critic". all the prices include a 20ish% tip and plenty of alcohol.

tadich grill (seafood) is a must. just a few blocks down nob hill. extremely cool place to be in. it has the neatest bar and table arrangements. we started with oysters Rockefeller that made me need to switch my pants. the new england chowder was one of the two best I've had in my life. I got the Chilean sea bass and it was massive and delicious. two of us - around $100

scoma's (seafood) right off the wharf is a landmark. the decor is like an old marina and it's very cramped. we had lunch there and I got a Caesar salad that was your standard, solid salad and the chowder that was the best I've ever had. my memory isn't good enough to describe it in detail, but I do remember wanting to take my pants off and run around the restaurant after tasting it. two of us - around $140

we had brunch one morning at olea a couple blocks from the top of nob hill. tiny, tiny place, but one of the, for lack of a better word, neatest places I've eaten at. there were 3 people in there, 2 servers and a cook, plus it was packed, but no one in the place had to look around and wait for a waiter. they were on top of everything. oh, and the breakfast was good: decent, organic egg breakfast, but the cappuccino made the walk uphill back to the hotel far more than worth it. two of us - about $50

also went to Gary danko, which was just your standard, fancy arse michelin rated place. expensive everything, 3, 4, and 5 course meals, all of them delicious and beautifully presented. the cheese course is where it's at though. I think I got to pick 5 and each was amazing, although I do love every single cheese there is. two of us - about $280

I had a nice goat dish at an Ethiopian restaurant on or near Haight and Ashbury.

That's about all I got.

I ate at this place last Monday night. I put it in the top 5, maybe even top 3, best restaurant experiences I've had.

Enjoy.

If you want to try some really good Vietnamese try out Crustacean. I went to the one in Beverly Hills, but I think the San Francisco one is the same.

Rosted crab and garlic noodles were mind blowing
