Fringale pioneered the South of Market culinary renaissance as one of the first true French bistros in San Francisco. Originally opened by chef Gerald Hirigoyen and J.B. Lorda in September 1991 and now owned by Jean-Marie Legendre, one of the original employees of the restaurant, Fringale has remained a favorite dining spot for food lovers, socialites, politicians, artists, journalists, and out-of-town celebrities.

 

“One of the 5 Best Bistros in San Francisco”

-—Zagat

 

“Food here embraces the bold flavors and rustic quality of traditional Basque cuisine.”

—Michelin Guide 2011
