Boulevard

In a town known as a foodie heaven, it's rather difficult to stand out. Even more of a challenge is to remain relevant once you reach the top, yet Chef Nancy Oakes has kept Boulevard at the top of Bay Area dining lists since 1993. Game birds and seafood are the highlights on this American menu.

Boulevard is located in a historical building and sits right on the famous San Francisco Embarcadero, offering sweeping views of boats sailing under the Bay Bridge. This also happens to be one of the best places in the city for a weekend brunch.
