Lunette Cambodia
San Francisco’s only Cambodian restaurant serves homestyle comforts to folks from the country, and revelations to anyone trying the cuisine for the first time. It’s located inside the main food hall of the Ferry Building, the beautiful Beaux-Arts landmark at the foot of Market Street. Locals and tourists alike flow through the historic transit center, and step up to the counter of Lunette’s casual and colorful storefront. The simple menu gently urges you to either “eat rice” or “eat noodles,” along with a few spicy salads and fried snacks, and precisely one wine and one beer on rotation. The Ferry Building skews toward daytime hours, so come for a leisurely lunch or an early dinner, or pick up a takeout order to slurp in the comfort of your hotel room or home.
