I adore exclusive dining, which hardly appears in the regular guides. I have visited several restaurants reviewed by the Avantguide and I had a blast.
Helpful July 13, 2003 When I last arrived to San Francisco it was pretty late and I had trouble finding a place where I could eat. Avantguide's section on Late Night Dining saved me this time. It contains the right info, especially when you are starving.

This book has information I did not find in any other guidebook. It's got underground stuff as well as the best of what you need to do. This book made my trip to San Francisco.
