Giving a new spin to the traditional pub, interior designer Ken Fulk has reimagined the eatery at Hotel Monaco San Francisco as the BDK Restaurant & Bar. The stylish tavern boasts timeless materials like oak, leather, and raw steel, while geometric tile floors and limewashed walls keep things fresh. Top Chef alum Heather Terhune has revamped old favorites, with a new-American menu that includes pickle-brined fried chicken and Chianti-braised pot roast. There’s even a cozy separate space, called the Reading Room, for intimate meals or just enjoying a pint.
