[.ca] 2006 San Francisco Bay Area Restaurants (ISBN 1570067384)

This Zagat guide is NOT correct...:
I agree very much with the other review here. For some other cities, Zagat is on target. They are sadly way off target for SF. No way are they there yet. Top rated restaurants are sadly off the mark...and for areas such as Fisherman's Wharf, the ONLY restaurants included are the way over priced ones. For most neighborhoods, actually, it's only the high priced trendy places that are reviewed. Someone from the Zagat office needs to actuallY COME HERE to SF, and see what the truth is!

Not worth it this time:
I religiously buy the San Francisco guide of Zagats as I found it to be the best resource. However, the 2004 issue is very disappointing. I don't agree that 24 of the top 40 restaurants ALL being given the same score. Also, one of the restaurants that was named in the top 40 for food was in actuality doing very poorly, brought in a new chef, a new menu, and new decor. There was no mention in the review of this. With Zagat expanding into other areas like movie reviews et al, it is obvious that the quality control of the restaurant guides is suffering. If you purchase this book I would ignore the reviews and use it for more of a convenient restaurant phone book.
