Za Pizza
In case you weren't aware, 'za' is short for 'pizza' and pizza is exactly what this place does best. Located on Hyde Street in Russian Hill, Za's patrons can feast on thin and crispy slices while watching the bustle of neighborhood dog walkers and listening to the thump and chime of San Francisco's famed Cable Cars. The pies here are strictly New York style and regulars will attest that Za does it right. Three tables and a handful of stools at the counter make the place cozy, but mean you may have to wait a bit on a busy Friday night. See website for menu.
This place has good food at reasonable prices. The tasteful interiors have art on the walls and gray carpeting, and the obligatory aquarium is full of goldfish, the display of which is said to ward off bad luck. The menu offers standard Chinese restaurant fare, but the food is prepared with unequivocally fresh ingredients and seasonings that are in order. The Shrimp with Black Bean Sauce and the Pepper Steak are good options to choose. Conveniently located near the cinemas on Van Ness Avenue, the place offers bar service, equipped as it is with a full bar.

Tai Chi
A popular debate among locals is where to find the best pot stickers in SF. Tai Chi Restaurant is a good candidate that attracts a cross section of pot sticker lovers from all over. These dumplings are a little spicier than most, in keeping with the fiery cuisine of the regional dishes served here. These are served with a generous pork-based filling and a wrapper that is neither too doughy or too crispy. For a main dish to follow, the noodle dishes, also spicy and tossed with meat, fish, or vegetables make a rib sticking meal. One word of warning, when a menu item is listed as spicy hot, believe it. If in doubt, the courteous wait staff can help you out with what may be too intense for your palate.

The atmosphere at this casual spot could be described as comfortable funky and the service as indifferent, but then again it is not exactly the Four Seasons. It is a pizza joint. Garlic is the topping of choice here and one North Beach knows how to work into a slice or whole pizza to delight a garlic lover. The Coit Tower and the North Beach are both great specialty pizzas which use garlic to great effect. Opens daily 9am.
