Focus Features

Chef's Pick: White Tuna Crudo
Chef: John Nguyen
Our white tuna is flown in fresh daily. I slice it thin and serve it with an aromatic meyer lemon infused oil and top it with sweet blood oranges and a slightly salty green olive tapenade. It balances the buttery, fatty aspect of this delicate fish with a citrus and earthy presence.

Bartender's Favorite Drink: First Crushed
Bartender: Donny Gerrard
We take a nice brut sparkling from Napa Valley which boasts of a slight toastiness and an essence of ripe pears and infuse it with elderflower, adding a delicate white flower backdrop to this effervescent cocktail.

Special Upcoming Events
Voted “Best Group Dining” by City Search, First Crush holds events for parties from 15 to 100 people on a weekly basis and is within walking distance of Union Square, the San Francisco Convention and Visitors Bureau and many San Francisco hotels. We are also a half a block from the Powell Street BART and MUNI line. As we are a smaller venue, we easily cater to the specific needs of your event.

Special Feature: Wine Flights
First Crush offers a diverse list of California wines - all California, all the time - by the glass and by the flight. A flight is a selection of wine equivalent to one full glass. Side by side, smaller pours, are grouped together to allow you to sample different wines. Featuring many boutique producers, our flight list dabbles in different, sometimes hard to find varietals. As we change our flight list regularly, you can easily come in time after time and find a new California gem!
