Coco Time

< Cocoa colored COCO500 entrance >

The other evening I had the pleasure of joining some delightful friends for a tasty dinner at COCO500 in San Francisco.  The restaurant was just the right size for the city, and the decor was modern yet warm and inviting.  500 is in the name, and 500 is the street number of this eatery's location!  The food was incredibly delicious (COCO500 is now my favorite restaurant in the bay) and the service was impeccable.  The simplistic presentation of the food that had such healthy, homemade taste was so enticing, and I definitely had my fill of food that night.  If you are living in San Francisco or have plans to visit there, I would definitely advise you to make a dining reservation at COCO500.
