Best New Restaurant (Wine Country): Ca'Momi Osteria

Expanding from their small flagship inside the Oxbow Market, Ca' Momi has new downtown digs with a chic industrial design. The restaurant prides itself on"obsessively authentic Italian," which means you won't find run of the mill ravioli or lasagna on the menu. Instead, they keep things strictly traditional with "heart crafted" dishes such as tagliolini neri con ricci di mar, a squid ink seafood pasta, and TK. The Osteria also has live music on every Friday and Saturday night. — Jess Lander // 1141 1st St. (Napa), camomi.com

Best Cocktail: The Portrait at The Dorian

Let us paint you a boozy portrait: Michter's bourbon, mixed wih amaro nonino smoked maple, and angostura tobacco tincture, served straight.

Culinary Innovator of the Year: Liho Liho Yacht Club

Liholiho Yacht Club serves up an Ohana-style menu with a touch of sophisticated charm, celebrating Hawaiian traditions through such dishes as fried oysters with beef carpaccio and fried game hen with cashews, tamari glaze, and flowering kal. But if you're a true fan of Hawaiian fare, then you'll stop at the homemade Spam and call it a tasty, tasty night. Head over, grab a drink, and feel the family spirit. // 871 Sutter St. (Nob Hill), liholihoyachtclub.com

Hangover Brunch: Brenda's French Soul Food

Brenda's French Soul Food is the place to go for an alochol-soaking fried chicken plate. Modestly listed as BFC—which locals will know stands for "Best Fried Chicken"— the mouthwatering dish includes three pieces of their super-juicy-on-the-inside and crispy-on-the-outside fried chicken, a warm flakey biscuit, and tangy collard greeens. Brenda's BFC was also on 7x7's Big Eat list this year, so you know it's a must-order. // 652 Polk St. (Tenderloin), frenchsoulfood.com

Most Original Restaurant Concept: Mina Test Kitchen

In June 2015, Michael Mina turned the idea of a restaurant on its head when he announced The Mina Test Kitchen, a series of pop-up restaurants that would allow his team of chefs to experiment with different culinary concepts. The first idea, Middle'terranea (a fusion of Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisine) debuted with chef Adam Sobel in the kitchen and the fresh flavors blew us away. This summer, Mina has Ayesha Curry in the kitchen serving up barbecue platters from around the world. We can't wait to see who he brings in next. //2120 Greenwich St. (Marina), minatestkitchen.com

Best Place to Caffeinate: Philz

For a city concerned with local products, we sure have a lot of coffee imports—Stumptown hails from Portland, and even Blue Bottle originated across the Bay Bridge. Philz Coffee, though, is all San Francisco. Starting with the flagship store on 24th and Folsom, Philz has always brought the caffeine and community to the daily grind. — Marina Smith // Multiple locations, philzcoffee.com

Sweetest Treat: B. Patisserie's Chocolate Caramel Toffee Mousse

Pastry chef Belinda Leong, a Gary Danko and Manresa veteran who gained a cult following with her Ferry Building pop-up, is pretty much the queen of sweets in San Francisco and her Bittersweet Chocolate Mousse (a dome of bittersweet chocolate mousse covered with shiny ganache, interspersed with toffee chips and caramel, and set on a flourless chocolate biscuit) is the stuff of royalty. // 2821 California St. (Pac Heights), bpatisserie.com

Favorite Shopping Neighborhood: Hayes Valley

The French have a great expression for window shopping: leche vitrine, or "lick the window." And with gourmet treats such as Chantal Guillon's colorful macarons, chocolate confections from Christopher Elbow, vintage treasure at Ver Unica and handmade accessories at Azil, you may want to do just that. A lunch stop at Souvla makes it a perfect day.

Where to Hair: Cinta Salon

Whether it's balyage or pastel tresses they seek, trend-conscious style mavens look to this Grant Avenue mainstay (which has undergone a lovely renovation in recent years) to keep their locks au courant. This spring and summer, it's ecaille (French for tortoiseshell) color that Cinta's most stylish customers are after. Similar to balyage, the color treatment goes for a multitextural effect by painting or foiling both cool and warm tones on each strand of hair. Gisele is a fan, and so are we. // 23 Grant Ave. (FiDi), cinta.com

Best Dressed Style Icon: Umberto Gibin

Fashionable and hospitable, Umberto Gibin's Italian charm serves him well as the owner and host of Financial District gem, Perbacco. Gibin garnered his impeccable people-skills at some of Europe's most high-end restaurants and hotels, including The Palace in St. Moritz and The Caprice in London, before arriving in San Francisco in 1979 (he chased a girl across the pond!). He's had a hand in almost all of the city's high-end Italian restaurants (Ernie's, Donatello Hotel and Restaurant, Ciao, Chianti) and then some (Grand Cafe, Fifth Floor), and made his mark on the California restaurant scene as one of the founding team members of Il Fornaio. Now he's found his niche as the proprietor of fine Italian fare with his very own spot, Perbacco. Stop by and say hello. // 230 California St. (FiDi), perbaccosf.com

ART + DESIGN

Best New Building + Awe Inspiring Interiors: SFMOMA

t's been nearly three years since SFMOMA shut its doors with the promise of returning bigger and better in 2016. On May 14, the celebrated art museum finally unveiled its richly expanded collection in a striking new home. The expansion, designed by Snøhetta, melds seamlessly with the existing structure on the inside, while the exterior presents a juxtaposition of old and new architecture on Third Street as the facade appears to ripple and shift with the light. Guests are sure to swoon for the third floor outdoor terrace, anchored by a dramatic 150-foot living wall — the largest public one in the U.S. — whose stretch of green looks like a mini Golden Gate Park affixed to the building. Inside, The new Doris and Donald Fisher Collection is a boon for the museum with postwar and contemporary works from artists such as Roy Lichtenstein, Agnes Martin, and Gerhard Richter. The inaugural shows feature beautiful galleries of some of the Fisher's favorite artists. Occupying most of the third floor, the Pritzker Center for Photography is the largest gallery and research space devoted to photography among art museums in the nation. Plus, a new partnership with the San Francisco Film Society means a new film program, Modern Cinema, exhibited in the newly renovated Phyllis Wattis Theater. Needless to say, there's a lot to see. — Garrick Ramirez // 151 3rd St. (SoMa), sfmoma.org

Most Memorable Art Exhibition (June 2015 - May 2016): Oscar De La Renta at the DeYoung

A stroll through the de Young' museum's glorious Oscar de la Renta tribute, which ended its 10-week run on May 30, was like time-traveling through the Dominican-born designer's legendary 50-year career. Guest-curated by longtime de la Renta friend and former Vogue editor-at-large Andre Leon Talley, the meticulously staged lovefest featured one impeccable look after the next: Russian-inspired, fur-trimmed, brocade gowns, fiery flamenco skirts, Marie Antoinette-like pastel confections, and glam red-carpet stunners. Just like the elegant man who inspired it, this exhibition won't soon be forgotten. // 50 Hagiwara Tea Garden Dr. (Golden Gate Park), deyoung.famsf.org

Most Mesmerizing Performance Company or Troupe: San Francisco Ballet

As the oldest professional ballet company in America, the San Francisco Ballet exhibits a grace and elegance that just can't be beat. This season's highlights include world premieres by Liam Scarlett and Justin Peck; three full-length story ballets: Swan Lake, Coppélia, Onegin; the North American premiere of William Forsythe's Pas/Parts 2016; and the SF Ballet debut of Alexei Ratmansky's Seven Sonatas.

Rising Star Artist to Watch: Pete Feliciano

Pete Feliciano is a must-watch musician, remixer, and DJ in the San Francisco music scene. Blending sultry tones with occasional hard rap verses, the sounds coming from his popular Soundcloud page are great study music, party music, cleaning music, or whatever. We're digging his latest collaboration with artist OneWerd, Make it in the End (feat. VerBs, CTZN & Pete Feliciano). Seriously it's too good. — A.R. // soundcloud.com/peter-feliciano

Now Night Spot: The Treasury

Tucked secretly away on Bush Street, The Treasury is a joint project between Phil West (Range, Third Rail), Arnold Eric Wong (Bacar, E&O), and Carlos Yturria (A16, Absinthe). You can expect light but delicious bar fare, such as oysters and cheese platters, to ensure downtown office workers have the happiest of happy hours. We recommend grabbing yourself a 'Selfie' cocktail—all the kids are doing it. // 200 Bush St #101 (FiDi), thetreasurysf.com

Boss Music Venue: The Fillmore

The Fillmore, or as we like to call it, the "inspiration for our Grand Foyer when I'm filthy rich," remains hallowed ground to every San Franciscan who yearns for hyper-relevant live music with a touch of historical gravity.

GETAWAYS

Hippest Place to Camp: Prewitt Ridge, Big Sur

Prewitt Ridge might be an officially dedicated campground within Los Padres National Forest, but don't let that fool you into thinking that you have to reserve it months ahead of time. On the contrary, this is "dispersed camping" — no reservations, no toilets, and no running water. But once you're up on the ridge above the fog with views over the coast and the Pacific, none of that will matter. // fs.usda.gov

Restaurant Worth Traveling To: The French Laundry

Since its opening in 1994, chef Thomas Keller's iconic Napa Valley restaurant, The French Laundry, has drawn attention for its stunning presentation, fresh ingredients, and culinary innovation. It's been called "the best restaurant in the world" by Anthony Bourdain and boasts a staggering three Michelin stars.

Favorite Way to Sweat: TRX Training Center

Invented by a former Navy Seal right here in SF, the equipment for TRX is pretty basic: 12-foot-long nylon straps, a couple of buckles, and two loops dangling from a secure bar or anchor point in the ceiling. During any of the 55-minute-long circuit training group classes (held two or four times a day, Monday through Saturday), you'll move through a fast-paced set of pull-ups, presses, curls, and core work. The idea is to use your body weight for resistance to build strength, as you switch from floor exercises with your feet cradled in the loops (hello, side plank) to inclined standing sets with your hands gripping the loops for leverage during modified push-ups and single-legged squats. It's one of the best workouts you can get in // 1660 Pacific Ave. (Pac Heights), trxtrainingcenter.com

Exercise for Couples: Rock Climbing at Touch Stone Rock Climbing

Test your relationship with the ultimate trust fall while indoor rock climbing at Mission Cliffs.

Best Bay Area Sports Team: Golden State Warriors

Our Golden State Warriors have been on quite a tear.

Oh yah, and they're also really really ridiculously good looking. Not a bad perk. // nba.com
