Dalida
Steven invited me to lunch (and we had some work things to talk through). I threw him some options and he picked Dalida. The only other time I went here was almost 2 years ago, so I was glad to revisit. We ordered a la carte (there is a prix fixe lunch that looked pretty…

Californios
Booked this right after the announcements for their 3rd star. This is Andrea’s favorite restaurant so this was our 8th visit together (9th visit for me) going back to 2019 when they were still in the Mission. I hadn’t realized we hadn’t been here since last May (I was here in November) until I looked…

JP Morgan Club at Chase Center
Our neighbors have season tickets courtside this year for the Valkyries. Stanford invited me to a game. Their tickets give them access to the JP Morgan Club which is also fairly close to our seats. It was fairly crowded pre-game with almost no available seats. Food is just buffet, but included a carving station station.…

Niku Butcher Shop
Larry reached out to for something and so we realized we need to catch over lunch. I suggested we try the burgers at Niku Butcher Shop which I’ve been meaning to try for awhile now. You have to wait out front until they call you so that they only have one group in the shop…

Polaris Lounge SFO
Polaris Lounge was packed. We just went straight to the restaurant and were seated for breakfast (lunch menu didn’t start until 11:30am). There was a couple already seated at the table next to us who had finished breakfast, but who were arguing with the hostess that they had wanted to stay through so they could…

Maria Isabel
Dinner at Maria Isabel. Tasting menu is reasonably priced ($90) for SF although we did add the two supplemental courses. Generally decent layered flavors on most dishes. Salad was very nice with all of the herbs and a sorbet with a bit of heat. Sea Urchin Tamalito was nice with a pillowy tamale and some…
