Primo Patio Cafe
All the good patio restaurants in California aren't down south. Up in the San Francisco area, you'll find a number of fantastic places for outdoor dining. We love Primo Patio Cafe in SoMa. The Caribbean-style food reflects tastes from Cuba, Jamaica and Mexico. From the grilled jerk chicken to the blackened salmon to the crispy calamari, you'll love everything on the menu. The sunny patio in the back is perfect for relaxing with friends and enjoying a glass of housemade Sangria or a cool Buli-Buli — a Cuban cocktail made with beer, lime juice, sugar and ice.
