One of America's very first vegetarian restaurants. In 1979, a young Zen Buddhist decided to create a restaurant dedicated to fresh vegetables. Today, chef and author Annie Somerville is at the helm of Greens, offering refined, subtle cuisine inspired by Italy and India. You'll appreciate the beautiful view of the Golden Gate Bridge through the large picture windows. Even non-vegetarians will be delighted by the experience. Reservations are recommended, as this address has been celebrated by the New York Times.

I'm delighted to say that this food is stellar, the atmosphere is chill, and the service is on point. For me it was one of those experiences where the food is so well composed, thoughtful, and balanced that it just made everyone at the table happy. Every dish was unique and tasty. We found ourselves ordering multiple courses just because we wanted to taste everything on their brunch menu.
A few standouts were the smoked cheddar biscuits, creamy polenta, strawberry sourdough pancakes, english pea pupusas, and the roasted potato pizza. These dishes make me eager to go back!
I do wish restaurants would stop using the term "ladies" - no one wants to be misgendered, and in any case many women don't like being addressed as "lady," which makes sense to anyone with a sense of the history of the term.
