“We grew up at Fort Mason. Greens was one of the first restaurants I remember from childhood, mainly because as seven year-olds we tried to climb their iconic J.B. Blunk sculpture,” said Aaron Hulme, co-owner of Radhaus. “Opening Radhaus here allows us to join, and give back, to a community we love and that helped shape us.”
But a word to the wise, the new spot is currently garnering the lines and rushes of SF’s good eats crowd—expect a wait. Radhaus hopes to blend the bustling atmosphere of Biergarten in Hayes Valley and culinary takes on the cuisine of Suppenküche also in Hayes Valley. Though a pro-tip for those hoping to enjoy the German styles of Radhaus, go on an off-night and not on days/nights where major events are happening at Fort Mason, we suggest a Tuesday night right as they switch over from lunch to dinner.
Some dishes we’re currently mouthwatering over include a chicken schnitzel sandwich with buttermilk sauce, cucumber, dill and pickled onion; a fresh take on griebenschmaltz incorporating chicken fat and cracklins (rather than the usual pork) with marjoram, apple and house-made crackers; a roast half chicken with bread dumplings and more. Happy eating Marina folk.
