- TThebehm5vipKansas City / Kansas •16 reviews5.0Dined 7 days agoWe were warmly welcomed and taken to our table. Wine and craft cocktails do not disappoint. The Sage and their Fall pumpkin drinks were great. The Ahi Tuna Tartar was tasteful and refreshing, although get an extra chip with it. Moving onto dinner the menu has something for everyone! Seafood Linguine and Scallops with octopus were exceptional, although octopus and scallops need some seasoning. Desert was another hit! Paris Brest was sweet and savory. Roasted hazelnuts and Gelato really brings out the flavor. Will definitely be back. Service was 5 star!More infoCeron KitchenPrice: Very Expensive• American• Alameda•4.6

Discover San Francisco
Farm-to-table is everywhere now, but it was here first. Just north of San Francisco, the values-forward counties of Marin and Sonoma offer an abundance of sustainably sourced produce. Of course, there’s more to eat in the Bay than leafy greens alone—don’t miss the mainstays like Cioppino (a seafood stew best eaten with thick-cut garlic bread), Mission-style burritos, local oysters and Neapolitan pizza where pizzerias around town war for the ultimate version. The city has long been home to distinct international flavors, so for authentic dim sum, Chinatown tops the charts. The Mission is ablaze with longstanding taquerias, steakhouses and a new wave of artisanal bakeries and coffee houses. And the Fisherman’s Wharf, while touristy, is the spot for Bay caught seafood. From there, we recommend walking to Crissy Field for Golden Gate Bridge gazing and sparkling sunshine.
