Setting The Standard For San Francisco Restaurants...

Recognized as one of the top 20 restaurants in San Francisco by Gourmet Magazine, the Big 4 Restaurant promises the finest in innovative and contemporary American cuisine. This uniquely historic San Francisco restaurant is named after the nation's four most famous railroad tycoons of the nineteenth century – C.P. Huntington, Charles Crocker, Leland Stanford, and Mark Hopkins. Appointed with lead-glass mirrors and forest-green banquettes, the Big 4 Restaurant instantly transports guests to another era of San Francisco dining and décor, with an impressive collection of original artifacts, historical photographs, and memorabilia from California's unique history.

Award-Winning Talent At This Restaurant In San Francisco...

Previously awarded "Chef of the Year" by the National Executive Chefs Association, Executive Chef Gloria Ciccarone-Nehls brings a wealth of experience to this downtown San Francisco restaurant, adding an artistic touch to each new dish she creates. Chef Ciccarone-Nehls personally develops all of the menus for this innovative restaurant in San Francisco, featuring an eclectic mix of starters and light fare as well as a full range of pastas and house specialties for heartier appetites.

The menus at this San Francisco restaurant change regularly to reflect the availability of fresh seafood, game, fowl, vegetables, fruits, or holiday favorites. For the benefit of our health-conscious San Francisco dining guests, Ciccarone-Nehls also has expanded the menus to highlight healthy, light dishes, including:
