In the last year, San Francisco has outdone itself in gorgeous dining venues. To celebrate the newly launched re-design of Curbed SF and the greater Curbed network, take a look around at some of the city's most architecturally stunning build-outs in recent months. From completely windowed spaces where light floods in (Volta, Little Gem) and a car dealership remodel (Drake's Dealership) to a London train station emulation (Whitechapel) and a historic Napa building refresh (Ninebark), these are the most impressive spaces to open in the last year.
