38 Essential San Francisco Restaurants
From the training ground for greatness behind their bar to the always delicious seasonal menu and friendly service, Range is one of the most consistent restaurants in town. It's a grown-up place, good for date nights, dinners with the parents, and anything else that requires some peace, quiet, and space.
Bay Area Top 100
Maybe it was the seven-year itch, but last year Range fell from the Top 100 because the focus seemed to blur. Now it's back on top. Cameron and Phil West pioneered a new area of the Mission when they opened in 2005, creating a stylish oasis with items from nearby secondhand shops.

As I watched the pierced, tattooed couple spreading creamy chicken liver mousse on crisp croutons at Range, I was jealous. Not because of their cool look, but because I coveted that mousse ($10). It's been my favorite version ever since I tasted it when the restaurant opened in 2005.
