The Scene
Greens has long offered a classic San Francisco experience, mixing spectacular bay views with a casual mix of seasoned Marin socialites, tourists and green-minded locals, all dining on an upscale vegetarian menu of pan-global delights. Come for lunch or sit down before the sun sets to soak up the full beauty of the bay-and-headlands view.

The Food
It's worth braving the old waterfront warehouse to experience the fifth dimension of flavor that Executive Chef Annie Somerville coaxes from a braised tofu cube alone. Velvety yellow-squash risotto and taste bud-tingling yellow curry practically leap from their plates with flavor, and the spicy rattlesnake bean soup is a must. Signature dishes like eggplant lasagna, linguine with hot peppers and char-grilled veggie brochettes are popular. A changing seasonal menu guarantees even more succulent successes.
