Description

This charming restaurant is on a corner just a few blocks from the beach in the Outer Sunset. Outerlands' simple wood tables and chairs, open kitchen, and service - you order at a counter and collect your own silverware - imply casual fare, but that isn't the case. The American cooking is sophisticated, even when it's a soup-and-sandwich lunch. Wonderful levain bread is baked fresh daily, as are the desserts. Choose from about a dozen frequently changing offerings at dinner, including fresh and inventive salads, baked macaroni and cheese, and cassouletlike bean dishes. The brief wine list is mostly organic and Biodynamic. Sunday brunch features baked eggs and a savory, puffy Dutch pancake served with bacon, and is deservedly popular.

    Trek to the Sunset's Outerlands for inventive New American fare

    There aren't many reasons for foodies to travel to the outermost reaches of what's already termed the Outer Sunset, especially those last few blocks before the Great Highway that grow increasingly bleak, windswept, and foggy at times. But early... More »

  • 2010 | Best Restaurant Soundtrack

    Sure, food is important in selecting where you want to eat, but ambience is up there, too. Outerlands gets high marks on both accounts. The cozy Outer Sunset restaurant puts care into everything it presents -- the driftwood counters and walls; the fresh bread, soups, and salads; and the soundtrack drifting out from the speakers. If you're an indie-rock fan with Pitchfork tastes, the owners always have the best selections playing at a volume that won't upset your dinner conversations.... More »
