This feels like more of a neighborhood restaurant than a destination restaurant, and that's perhaps why we like it. They're known for their seafood but they have a Rib Eye that comes with more side dishes and accoutrements than you can shake a stick at, from different salts, to mustards, to sauces. The steak can easily feed two if not three people.

Banya is a Russian spa. Here you will find 185 degree rooms with 25% humidity to drain the toxins through your pores. Sit on the roof and stare at the city, east bay and world beyond in a bathrobe, or in your birthday suit. Steam yourself in a Turkish style hamam, or enjoy a finish sauna. Something to note, this is a clothing optional affair... so be ware going in.
