Myth was recently named one of the Best Restaurants in the United States by Esquire Magazine and one of the Top Ten restaurants in San Francisco, if not The top new restaurant in The City by The San Francisco Chronicle. At Myth, Restaurateur Tom Duffy and Executive Chef Sean O’Brien, former sous chef at Gary Danko’s, delight San Francisco and its visitors with a most tantalizing and eclectic California/French menu. Everyone raves about the scallops dusted with black trumpet mushrooms served on a pommes puree. The best-sellers are seared lamb chops with navy beans, chorizo, arugula and Madeira sauce as well as the grilled New York steak with blue cheese butter, red wine sauce and French fries. Desserts are seasonal. I recommend the quince and pear strudel slathered with a cider reduction and gingered Cognac ice cream. Absolutely delicious! This one left me wanting more.
The warm wood, glass and fabric atmosphere at Myth, created by specialists Michael Guthrie & Company, is a paradox: comfortable and casual, yet elegant. The team at Myth is extraordinary. General Manager John Flanagan and his staff provide friendly and attentive service. Wine Director Alex Fox has chosen an accessible list of California, French, Italian and Spanish boutique wines and champagnes to accompany both your small and large plates. Make no “mythstake” about it, Myth is one of my favorites and I’m sure it will be one of yours too!
Myth is located at 470 Pacific between Sansome & Montgomery. Valet Parking is available.
