    Savor offers healthy, vegetarian, and modern Arabic food in the charming inner Sunset neighborhood. Stop by and try the many plant-based dishes that are creative and delicious. After owning Saha in San Francisco and Berkeley for 17 years, Chef Mohamed is excited to bring his newest spin on Arabic-fusion cuisine but this time offering a vegetarian-only menu. Savor offers an experience that has been described as "food that you find at a fine-dining restaurant but served in a casual environment with reasonable prices". One day, Savor may offer alcoholic beverages but in the meantime, guests are invited to bring their favorite bottle from home.

    As pioneers of farming Sturgeon for caviar, our mission is to provide a quality caviar that rivals the traditional imported varieties. By offering an alternative to the caviar harvested from wild Sturgeon, we can alleviate the demand for imported caviar, thereby ensuring an abundant and consistent supply of caviar from around the world for generations to come. Equally important for us, and for the survival of wild Sturgeon, is to educate our consumers on the importance of choosing sustainable caviar.
    We have seen top chefs and gourmet aficionados switch their loyalty from Caspian caviar to California farmed Sturgeon caviar, thus embracing and supporting this crucial movement. The more successful we are in educating our consumers, the more we can help change the paradigm for how America's professional and amateur chefs perceive and eat caviar.

    food was amazing and came fast! the ambience was great, a lot of gorgeous decoration to look at. I ordered the ricotta pancakes, my partner had fried french toast. Everything was so pretty i almost didn’t know how to eat it nor did i want to mess it up. The entrance is a bit tight spaced when its busy, but having a reservation makes it easier to be seated. 10/10 recommend! Ps the cocktails are also amazing.

    EXCEPTIONAL!!!  Came for dinner and drinks with two girlfriends and  had a beautiful experience. Our server was amazing, knowledgeable and attentive. The food was divine! We loved the nigiri and the miso cod so much, and the ceviche and amberjack were delicious. Sake selection is on point too! This place is a hidden gem and I want to come back for omakase soon..

Discover San Francisco

Farm-to-table is everywhere now, but it was here first. Just north of San Francisco, the values-forward counties of Marin and Sonoma offer an abundance of sustainably sourced produce. Of course, there’s more to eat in the Bay than leafy greens alone though—don’t miss the mainstays like Cioppino (a seafood stew best eaten with thick-cut garlic bread), Mission-style burritos, local oysters and Neapolitan pizza where pizzerias around town war for the ultimate version. The city has long been home to distinct international flavors, so for authentic dim sum, Chinatown tops the charts. The Mission is ablaze with longstanding taquerias, steakhouses and a new wave of artisanal bakeries and coffee houses. And the Fisherman’s Wharf, while touristy, is the spot for Bay caught seafood. From there, we recommend walking to Crissy Field for Golden Gate Bridge gazing and sparkling sunshine.
