Moroccan Restaurant · SoMa · 84 tips and reviews
PureWow: Check out flavorful dishes such as salmon with fennel, Marcona almonds and zhug (a Middle Eastern hot sauce), and chicken brined in green olives with preserved lemons and brown-butter couscous. Read more.
herm pugay: A new upscale Moroccan restaurant similar to Aziza. Try the duck liver with pistachio, cocoa, turnip and satsuma or the basteeya with duck, almond and golden raisin. $$$$
Henna Abbas Merchant: The tasting menu was amazing. If you're in the mood for something a little lighter I recommend the cod. Loved the drink menu and wine selection!

Adam K.: Best "Detroit style" pizza I've had in SF so far!
Anerica: Came back and had the buffalo wings - amazing! It is a tough call about which of the wings to choose to order; both are so delicious!
Andrew Hirsh: This is the best pizza that I’ve had in San Francisco. I can’t stop thinking about the buffalo chicken pie!! The burger looks great too, but I’m going to need a bigger stomach.

Daniel Boulud: Chef Michael Chiarello serves some of the best Spanish tapas in the country. I especially enjoy the house cured meats and any of their pintxos with a chilled beer from Barcelona.

Jack Krawczyk: The paella is worth the hype. Perfectly done. Pan de chocolat is a great sweet bite to finish.
