Memento SF
Memento SF is an upscale New American restaurant in Noe Valley, opened in July 2023 by owner Rafael Da Silva, known as Raf. We aim to be a calm oasis in the middle of the city, where good food, thoughtful cocktails and a warm room come together. Our small menu is built to surprise, with familiar dishes given new takes alongside plates you may not expect. Come in for a meal and see if it feels like a place you want to return to.
New American cuisine
Our kitchen cooks New American cuisine, drawing on traditional dishes and newer ideas. Raf's years working in kitchens and bars shape the menu, so you will see both familiar flavors and plates that take a more creative direction. Each dish is meant to be vibrant and well balanced, with the same care going into the simple and the adventurous. If you enjoy food that respects where it comes from while staying open to new ideas, this is the style we cook every day.

San Francisco restaurant
Memento SF is a restaurant in San Francisco serving New American dishes, craft cocktails and both brunch and dinner. We opened in 2023 with the goal of giving guests a dining experience that feels personal and considered. Our menu is intentionally small and eclectic, so every dish gets attention from our kitchen. Whether you are planning a relaxed weekend brunch or an evening out, we would be glad to host you.
Upscale dining
Our upscale dining experience focuses on thoughtful cooking, carefully made cocktails and attentive, personable service. We keep the menu small so each dish is prepared with care, and the atmosphere is meant to feel special without being stiff. Guests are welcome to take their time and enjoy the room, the food and the company. If you are looking for a refined evening or a memorable meal, we would love to welcome you.
Eclectic menu
Our menu is small and eclectic, bringing together a range of New American dishes that suit many different tastes. You will find takes on familiar favorites alongside plates that are more unexpected. Each dish is designed to be bright and full of flavor, so the menu feels both varied and cohesive. Ordering a few dishes to share is a good way to experience the range of what our kitchen does.
Low ABV cocktails
Our cocktails are made with low ABV, meaning they are lighter in alcohol while still full of flavor. Raf's craft drink program is built around unique, well balanced recipes that have become favorites with our guests. Each cocktail is made with attention to detail, so you can enjoy a drink through the meal without it overpowering the food. Ask our staff for a recommendation to pair with your dishes.
Brunch and dinner options
Memento SF serves both brunch and dinner, so you can enjoy our New American menu at different times of the day. Brunch offers a relaxed start to the weekend, while dinner brings a fuller menu and an evening atmosphere. Both services draw on the same kitchen and cocktail program, giving you the chance to try the restaurant in more than one way. Come by at whichever time suits your plans.
