Food Scene

Very good Vietnamese food that won't break the bank. My favorite is the Braised Pork rice plate. The Banh Xeo is my favorite appetizer.

Not really a sit down restaurant. You can order food and take it into the bar next door. Great for late night eats.

This place is beautiful. They roast coffee in the shop and you can watch the process. It's a bit expensive and they don't have wifi but I still recommend it.

Very good chinese dumplings. Almost as good as the ones that my parents make ;). This place is tiny, but I highly recommend it if you like chinese dumplings. Their soupy dumplings (xiao long bao) are not very good though.

All you can eat Korean BBQ. Every table has a grill in the middle. You order cuts of raw/marinated meat which you cook to your desired doneness on the grill. I always leave feeling satisfied.

Entertainment & Activities

My favorite climbing gym in the US. This gym is bouldering only, but it's a giant playground if you like bouldering.

Parks & Nature

The greatest park in the Mission. Grab some beers/wine and set up a picnic blanket and just enjoy the day. If you like cannabis, buy some truffles from the truffle man, you won't be disappointed.
