At the top of a new month, it’s time to revisit that long list of restaurants you’ve been meaning to try across the city. For longtime staples to check off, you’ll want this map of classic San Francisco restaurants or perhaps the Eater San Francisco 38, a guide to some of the city’s best destinations for pizza, oysters, and top-notch dim sum. This list, however — the Eater SF Heatmap — highlights recently opened spots or ones we’re particularly excited about for one reason or another.
In short, it’s the answer to that ever-burning question: Where should I be eating right now?
After six months on the list, we’re removing Bella, Equal Parts, the Green Heron, Hamburguesa Bar, and Restaurant Naides. In their place, welcome Casa Sofia, Maggie & Mac’s,
Saltwater Bakeshop, and Tur.
