All you have to do is follow your nose to The Stinking Rose, one of San Francisco’s most unique and entertaining dining experiences. Located in North Beach, San Francisco’s renowned Little Italy, the garlic restaurant has become famous for celebrating the culinary euphoria of garlic, serving over 3,000 pounds of the pungent herb each month. Offering scrumptious, contemporary, California-Italian cuisine prepared and adorned with garlic, there is hearty fare for the truly adventurous, mild for the novice and sans garlic for vampires.
Guests can enjoy treat after garlicky treat in any of the restaurant’s whimsical dining rooms. The world’s largest garlic braid winds its way throughout the establishment and festive murals painted by local artist Chuck Kennedy, depicting a garlic bulb’s view of San Francisco history and culture, adorn the walls. At last count 2,635 bulbs of garlic, two onions, and one leek festoon every conceivable nook and cranny.
