The Dining Room at The Ritz-Carlton: The Best Eats in San Francisco

In a city of superb restaurants, The Dining Room at Ritz-Carlton still manages to stand out. Some of San Francisco's most exciting food is being served at one of its swankiest addresses (The Ritz-Carlton is the city's only Mobil Five-Star, AAA Five Diamond hotel). Chef Ron Siegel cooks up modern French cuisine with Japanese accents; he's into food, not fad. Zagat explains, "Not just TV fans cheer on "Iron Chef" Ron Siegel-- class act patrons jest he should be knighted for his dazzling sublime prix fixe menus." Just blocks from beloved city landmarks like Union Square, The Dining Room at The Ritz-Carlton stands proud atop of Nob Hill. One of only two restaurants in Cali to earn Mobil's Five-Star Award for 2007, the restaurant also boasts one of the largest collections of rare vintage wines and single malt scotch collections in the U.S.
