You have probably heard by now that San Francisco, California, has one of the best food scenes in the US. A major part of that reputation comes from amazing street food that you can find all around the city. So next time you are in San Francisco, make sure to hit the following food joints and give it a try.
Phill’s Phire Foods
If you are ready to taste some of the best “phire phood” in the Bay Area, then this is the spot. Offering a fusion of Latin Caribbean and Puerto Rican flavors, this food truck can be found at San Francisco’s Off the Grid Markets most of the time. It serves all sorts of delicious food, but one dish you shouldn’t miss out on is its take on Puerto Rican casserole called pastelon.
The Chairman
Many consider The Chairman to be the best street food spot in San Francisco, at least when it comes to Asian food. The highlight of their menu is steamed and baked buns that are packed with fresh ingredients and spicy and unique flavors. Their street food has a hint of classy thanks to The Chairman’s “culinary mastermind” chef Hiroo Nagahara, who previously worked as an executive chef at Las Vegas’ Bar Charlie.
Curry Up Now
And for a dash of India on your plate, head to Curry Up Now. This popular food joint serves traditional Indian staples reimagined as street food. We recommend you try their burritos, bowls, or thali platters, which are highly customizable depending on your preference and how much spiciness you can handle.
