The Mission, Dogpatch & Potrero Hill


Wildly imaginative farm-to-table dining in a converted cinder-block Mission dive. Chef Jason Fox serves adventurous compositions like uni (sea urchin) and bone-marrow cream with nasturtium flowers, and lamb with beets and seaweed on a redwood plank. Dishes are dainty but pack wallops of earthy flavor. Savor the six-course tasting menu ($95; $160 with wine pairings); a portion benefits local charities.
