A charming and residential San Francisco neighborhood, Pacific Heights dining keeps to the upscale, yet relaxed charm of its environs. The main street of the Pacific Heights neighborhood, Fillmore Street, is lined with small boutiques and eclectic restaurants. Small bistros, trattorias and sushi restaurants populate the Pacific Heights dining scene and cater to local residents and couples taking a night out or entertaining guests from out of town (or other San Francisco neighborhoods). A standout Pacific Heights restaurant, Annie's Bistro is a small, unassuming San Francisco restaurant with a deep wine list and a sophisticated menu.

1915 Fillmore Street, San Francisco, CA 94115
From the owners of Market Bar at Ferry Plaza and Bix, the eminent downtown supper club, Florio restaurant provides a good meal on happening Fillmore Street. Even though the location designates a Pacific Heights location, Florio would be at home in any neighborhood. Part French bistro, and part Italian trattoria, Florio keeps it simple serving up classic dishes like chicken liver pate, steak frites, roast chicken, spaghetti bolognese and house made gelato. This is just the type of place Fillmore Street—and the rest of San Francisco—needs.
