The Best Restaurant in The Bay Area, California

Background Illustration for Restaurants

The Bay Area is home to popular, innovative restaurants such as Chez Panisse in Berkeley and Commis in Oakland—for which reservations must be made well in advance. Expect an emphasis on locally grown produce, hormone-free meats, and California wines. Many Marin cafés don't serve dinner, and dinner service ends on the early side. (No 10 pm reservations in that neck of the woods.)

Arawan Thai Cuisine

$$

Tucked along the restaurant row of Caledonia Street, Arawan Thai is a noteworthy destination for some of the tastiest Thai dishes in Marin County. The elegant and cozy interior lends an intimate quality to this wonderful locals' favorite known for its generous variety of  soups, salads, and grilled specialties, along with shareable dishes, such as spicy angel wings (stuffed chicken wings) and prawn and cream cheese puffs. There's a wide selection of local and regional wines, and traditional beverages like Thai iced tea and iced coffee are not to be missed.
