The Michelin Red Guide for San Francisco is a great resource for both locals and visitors looking for the perfect spot.

All establishments covered in the guide are recommended by Michelin’s expert inspectors, so you can book reservations to any listing with confidence; you don’t have to wade through confusing or mediocre reviews to try to determine which place is worth your time and money. Michelin employs full-time local professional inspectors that work anonymously so they are treated the same as other diners. Michelin inspectors check back on previously reviewed establishments and the guide’s content is updated accordingly. Starred restaurants are inspected several times a year.

The guide describes ambience and cuisine for all entries, while restaurants that merit a Michelin star rating will also have a menu selection and color photos. For those with less than a three-star budget, a Bib Gourmand category includes 55 of the inspectors’ favorite places to eat for under $25.
