Specialties
Foreign Cinema opened in 1999 in San Francisco's Mission District. Offering eclectic California-Mediterranean cuisine, Foreign Cinema's Chefs/Owners Gayle Pirie and John Clark change the menu daily to reflect the finest organic, seasonal produce, meat and fish available. Foreign Cinema provides an industrial chic setting with a warm yet lively vibe. The indoor dining room features a fireplace and open kitchen, and foreign and independent films are screened against the white wall in the covered outdoor patio. Adjacent to the restaurant, Laszlo Bar serves as the perfect stop to sip a cocktail after dinner with a bar program paying a playful homage to noteworthy classic and modern films with cocktails such as La Dolce Vita and Vertigo.
