Hayes Valley staple and one of my favorite jobs. Seriously delicious German food and a wide selection of beer served at communal tables. Get the schnitzel, the meatloaf, the spätzle, or whatever special they have that night. Brunch is also delicious. They have the best currywurst, hands down. Share the boot, you'll regret drinking it alone, and then ask your server to do an Underberg with you. It's like a secret handshake.
