Palomino

Palomino

SOMA, San Francisco

When all things fail, Palomino will always be the place to go.  Mainly for one thing only - their dungeness crab artichoke dip.  Even though, the rest of their dishes are average, but with free validated parking and a view of the bay bridge, you can never go wrong. 

Dungeness Crab Artichoke Dip

parmesan, onions, roma crisps

 Served bubbling hot, this dip is simply Heaven!  It's certainly addictive and you will find yourself constantly breaking off pieces of the flatbread to scoop off chunks of the dip.  Between the 8 of us, we usually order 3 plates of the dip so we won't fight for it.
