Californios

Top choice in The Mission, Dogpatch & Potrero Hill


Parades – from Carnaval to Día de los Muertos – are a Mission specialty, and the parade of Latin-inspired flavors nightly at Californios does justice to the neighborhood's roots and unbridled creativity. Chef Val Cantu collaborates with local farms and artisan producers to reinvent staples with the seasons: imagine sourdough tortillas, foie-gras tamales, Dungeness crab ceviche and wild-strawberry flan. Reserve ahead.
