How is Taylor's Refresher, REALLY?
Absolutely not! The burgers are awful-- dry and flavorless.
Foreign Cinema or Delfina?
Which is better for a girls night out for two women in their 30's from NYC? Want good food, good wine/cocktails and a fun, lively atmosphere.
Thanks!
sweet craving in Mission area
Mission Pie has incredible banana cream pie-- best I've had.
Plus, they are just a great local business to support. They do great work with Mission High School students and have an innovative collaboration with a local non-profit , Pie Ranch, focused food sustainability and education.

Please advise NY Chowhound visiting SF for three nights...
What restaurants should not be missed? I already have reservations at Quince. Where else should i go? (Can't afford French Laundry and the like.) I'm also looking for great places that are not fine dining-- great mexican, great japanese and great california-style cuisine.
Any guidance would be much appreciated.
Thanks!

Authentic Mexican at El Huipil
I went there for the first time today and have to say that I was extremely underwhelmed by the pozole soup special. I thought even with the add-ins it was pretty flavorless. However, if your a mole fan, theirs is great. Also, the sopes appetizer was great.
I'm going to give Prune a try for brunch tomorrow, but...
if the wait is too long I'd like a good back up. (It's a special occasion). Any ideas for brunch near the east village that will be great without the wait? Also, how long is the wait typically around 12:30 on a Sunday?
Thanks!
