The best restaurant in San Francisco and a perennial top finisher among the best restaurants in the world can be found in the idyllic town of Yountville in the Napa Valley Wine Country. The endless waiting list into the restaurant promises a customer experience that ensures the standard to remain high and unachievable for 99.9% of the restaurants in the world.
Napa Valley French Laundry Executive Chef Thomas Keller and his team not only transformed an old French steam laundry shop but also transformed the entire restaurant scene with its focus on high quality California ingredients from drivable distance sources, multi-step complex French techniques, stylistic presentations, unwavering service, understated dining room and a to-die-for wine list. The degustation menus from the best restaurant in San Francisco constitute a journey of disbelief that more than deserves the celebrated three stars from Michelin, and single-handedly put Yountville on the culinary world map.
