I totally prefer Delfina. Range is okay, but I think their cocktails are better than their food. Fine, just not Michelin-star level.

This is all soooo ridiculous. Range is a great bar, an OK restaurant, and little else. Quince gets a Michelin Star, not Range. They are very fickle, and it seems a little outlandish to dole one out to a restaurant as unfocused as Range. Plus, there are visible rat traps at the rear entrance, as you head to Mission Pool.

Foreign Cinema is far more deserving of a Michelin star for many reasons (duration of consistency, atmosphere, dedication to local purveyors), the least of which is their highly focused wine list that has some allocated items that other restaurant simply don’t have the pull for.

‘Nuff said. Grab a drink at Range and hit Yamo for dinner.

Esperanto is foul. I’ve been there several times and each time the food was just poorly cooked, seasoned, etc. Definitely overhyped. Good wine though.

Esperpento has to be my favourite – always end up there when I come back from my travels.

Farina is really good, depending what you order of course. Pricey. with wines.

Foreign Cinema has a 3 course children’s dinner for around $10 (veggies with dip, pasta & ice cream). if you feel like a splurge and have kids, go during the week, during the winter. Thechildren will spot the the movie (starts too late in summer for little kids) and you’ll get some quality grown-up time. My children love it. wouldn’t go near there on a weekend though;-)

Range deserves the praise as it is truly excellent; Delfina is great and I have usually been able to get a place at the bar there on weeknights. I think it is far better and more reasonable priced than Farina. I am surprised at the praise for Esperpento — I went there a couple years ago and it was truly abysmal (and I like authentic tapas); maybe I should try it again. The idea that Bar Bambino is “unknown” seems a bit odd given that it is impossible to get a reservation there even a week ahead of time. Was Kiji included again? It is a personal favorite. Spork deserved to be included but the entire concept might have been just a bit too ironic for the Michelin reviewers.

RE zinzin’s comment on snottiness, I just wanted to add that the staff at most of these places – including Delfina, Range, Bar Tartine and Farina – have always, without exception, been very kind and helpful to me, and I have never seen them be what I would call snotty to anyone.
There are “cultural differences” that affect behavior of patrons in restaurants, and various dichotomies in terms of which these differences could be described (culture/style:hipster vs. d-bag; geographical origin: bridge-and-tunnel vs. city; also dichotomies of age, economic class, and profession or occupation).
Sometimes I have seen staff at these places have to deal firmly with patrons behaving in ways perhaps stereotypical of these dichotomies, e.g. those with expectations or demands to be seated immediately; those who either really don’t know or pretend not to know that at a fine dining restaurant one checks in with a maitre or maitresse d’hotel before attempting to take an open seat; those who expect to be preferred for seating because they are pregnant, have children, have money, have important guests, are late for symphony or theatre, or are too drunk to stand for long; etc. Firmness in dealing with such matters is not be mistaken for snottiness.
The only place mentioned here where I have experienced anything like snottiness was, perhaps somewhat ironically, Tokyo-A-Go-Go, when I walked in early while it was empty, by myself, unshaven, wearing old jeans and a colorful funky cowboy shirt. There was definitely stereotyping based on appearance happening, and issues and delays in being seated and waited upon, but folks warmed up after I ordered and were quite nice aftewards. I guess we all make judgments.
But thanks for a great list, zinzin. And yeah, Cancun still rules!
