North Bay

Caffe DiVino ($$)
37 Caledonia St (Sausalito) | Phone: 415-331-9355
Recommended Dish: Tiramisu
Comment: This restaurant serves both Italian food and dessert. My favorite turns out to be the dessert--blame it on the sweet tooth. But the desserts here are deliciously unique. Their Italian dishes do not disappoint either--it is a family owned, local establishment that is deserving of all its awards. It is not one of the standard, tourist-ridden restaurants in Sausalito but every bit as good, if not better than all the ritzy restaurants without the sticker shock.

Peninsula

Angelica's Bistro ($$)
863 Main St (Redwood City) | Phone: 650-365-3226

San Francisco

Acquerello ($$$$)
1722 Sacramento St (Nob Hill) | Phone: 415-567-5432
Recommended Dish: Warm Chocolate Cake with Espresso Mascarpone Gelato
Comment: This restaurant is not for the faint of heart. The food is delicious, the atmosphere is divine, and the service is impeccable. Unfortunately or maybe even deservingly, the price tag on a meal here is on the high side but the entire experience is worth it.

Bocce Cafe ($-$$)
478 Green Street (North Beach/Telegraph Hill) | Phone: 415-981-2044
Recommended Dish: Combination for Two
Comment: Make sure to make reservations. If you do that, you're set. The food is delicious, the venue is well designed, and the prices are very reasonable for the amount of food served. Delicious.
