First Bite: Ironside Docks In South Beach

(blog)

If Ironside was a girlfriend, she'd be the kind that you really like a lot, that you enjoy spending time with, but who you aren't sure you are going to marry. Ironside is a good-time girl, and sometimes a good-time girl is exactly what you need. The month-old restaurant, opened by the owners of District around the corner, have created a place that speaks to these times. It's casual, it's affordable, it doesn't take itself too seriously, and the eclectic menu has a more refined version of the something-for-everything ethos.

When you're done feasting your eyes at the city's museums, feast for real at these nearby restaurants.
Museum-going can rev up an appetite along the scale of the Roman Coliseum. When you get your fill of eye candy, why not treat your taste buds to a glass of wine and good eats? Not only do these seven spots serve up exhibit-worthy plates of food, they also offer contemporary design and cool lighting concepts to rival any museum experience.

District’s wine and cheese director, Caterina Mirabelli, may be a newcomer to SF, but she’s already got some favorite spots.Perhaps the biggest draw at District (216 Townsend St., 415-896-2120), South Beach’s latest wine-bar-cum-restaurant, is the 30-year-old Rome-born wunderkind Caterina Mirabelli. The irrepressible wine and cheese director may have lived in SF less than a year, but she’s already adamant about her favorite spots—which is what we’d expect from any self-respecting, discriminating Italian.

This lofty converted warehouse on the newly happening stretch of Townsend Street has exposed brick and beams, a giant U-shaped Brazilian-wood bar and a polished crowd. In deference to its proximity to the ballpark, one flat-screen TV plays the game for fans.

Eats:What's on your menu.: <p>It’s hard to categorize District: neither a wine bar nor a restaurant, but a happy hybrid of both. Given that it offers 32 wines by the glass, nine tasting flights and a reserve list of more than 100 bottles, wine clearly plays a major role. But the small plates—such as crisp risotto fritters (arancini di riso), steamed mussels with Pernod and spicy Italian sausage and artful cheese and salumi plates—are a good match for wines of all types.</p>

Offering up a little bit of everything, District is helping to define the city's sleekest new neighborhood.Even on weeknights, District is busy.
