We begin at Tú Lan Vietnamese Restaurant, a hole-in-the wall in the Tenderloin that has cultivated a devoted following with comforting Vietnamese dishes for the past 43 years. Next, it’s off to Noe Valley for festive Balkan cuisine and wines at Bistro SF Grill. Finally, we cross over the Bay to Attraversiamo, to devour Cal-Ital plates in the dazzling ‘Streets of Brentwood.’.

About Check Please Bay Area:
Check, Please! Bay Area features guests and eateries as diverse as the Bay Area itself. With each episode of the James Beard and Emmy Award-winning program, three local diners are cast as restaurant critics and share their favorite spots. After trying each other’s recommendations, they join host and moderator Leslie Sbrocco to discuss, dispute, and celebrate their dining experiences with lively commentary.
