James Beard Restaurants in San Francisco

Quince, Benu, and Atelier Crenn each run Three Star kitchens and wear a Beard Winner badge on top of it. State Bird Provisions and Mister Jiu's picked up wins of their own, and the finalist and semifinalist ranks go deep — Saison, Sons & Daughters, and Lazy Bear among them. Recognition isn't our rating, though. Plenty of these land at Delicious or Damn Good on our scale regardless of what's on the wall.
