Now in its third year, the Chef's Series is designed to elevate the Dear San Francisco experience by bringing together the city's vibrant culinary and performing arts communities. Throughout the year, guests will enjoy specially curated offerings from a different featured restaurant, creating a uniquely San Francisco evening that celebrates the creativity, innovation, and diversity that define the city.
