Tenderheart Restaurant & Bar | The LINE San Francisco

A group of people gathering around the table and sharing a big plate of food

Traditional Asian flavors unite with New American cuisine in a flowing, indoor-outdoor space on bustling Market Street. Executive Chef Joe Hou draws from his Chinese-American upbringing and calls on the Bay Area’s rich culinary history and its devotion to local ingredients and seasonality. A casual, communal hub and gathering place for locals and travelers alike, Tenderheart lives between the lively pulse of the city and the grit of historic downtown San Francisco.
