Info

call it "The Tandoori-loin". At Jones & O'Farrell Streets there are three Indian/Pakistani restaurants. Around the corner, at 398 Eddy Street (at Leavenworth), is Naan N Curry, considered by the San Francisco Chronicle and many locals (including cab drivers and cops) to be the best of the bunch (thanks to the affable gray-haired manager named "Arif" and several of his family members) as well as extremely affordable (one person can often have quite a decent meal for less than $10, and the sweetened "Chai" tea is free with meals). Fans of these small places all have a favorite, and Shalimar at Jones & O'Farrell is another good choice. Chutney, which is across the street from Shalimar is the newest of the group and is quite popular since Naan n Curry moved around the corner. Naan n Curry has become so popular, it has spawned at least two other locations in San Francisco (on Irving near 7th close to UCSF Med Center and on Jackson at Columbus near the Transamerica Pyramid) and one across the bay in Berkeley. Many Thai restaurants can be found in the neighborhood, including Thai House Express at Geary & Larkin and OSHA Thai Noodle at Geary & Leavenworth. An Asian vegetarian restaurant Golden Era can be found on O'Farrell Street near Jones Street. On weekend mornings you will find a large line winding outside of Dottie's True Blue Cafe, a popular breakfast place. They make their own bread and have huge egg scrambles. A local, hipster crowd mixes with tourists. Night life Bars & Lounges Many Tenderloin bars have withstood the test of time with their 1920s character and there is a mix of new bars and lounges. Bambudda Lounge at 601 Eddy St. & Larkin is a very popular lounge at the Phoenix Hotel. There is a 20 foot reclining Buddha on the roof. Asian food and DJ Music. They have poolside bar and indoor / outdoor fireplace. Olive Bar is at 743 Larkin and O'Farrell, an upscale bar for the neighborhood, known for their martinis and great food. They serve complimentary olives. The Nite Cap at Hyde and O'Farrell is a dive bar with lively character and a young clientele in the evening. The Owl Tree at Post and Taylor is an ancient dark English style tavern with an owl theme and a resident terrier. Edinburgh Castle on Geary at Polk is a Scottish-themed pub with a variety of beers. It is well known for literary events. They serve authentic fish & chips wrapped in newspaper from the stand down the block.
Ha Ra is a small, quiet bar with a boxing theme. There are posters of Rocky Marciano and other old time boxers on the walls. This bar is noted in the book "Dive Bars of San Francisco". Whiskey Thieves at Geary & Hyde is one of the few bars in San Francisco that can legally permit smoking. They have a pool table, big screen tv on game nights and young crowd.
