Clean, conscientious, keto. If you want keto meals made from locally sourced, environmentally conscious ingredients, Kitava is your place. Their rice-bowl model eschews seed oils, refined sugars, and artificial preservatives, offering a diverse flavor profile for any healthy diet – vegan, vegetarian, and keto. Just pick cauliflower rice, add protein, and pile on the fresh veggies!
Kitava’s menu is 100% gluten-free and devoid of common allergens like dairy, nuts, and soy. They responsibly and transparently source all the meat, poultry, and fish they serve. And if their dedication to regenerative agriculture doesn’t pull you in, their low-carb hard ciders and sugar-free, keto-friendly cookies will. We recommend the Sunlit Sour Cider, a San Francisco keto alcohol treat!

Kitchen Keto offers the best keto delivery in San Francisco, hands down. They will give you a satisfying night-in with generous portions and bold flavors with plenty of leftovers for a morning in.
Kitchen Keto’s Protein Cobb Salad and Pesto Zoodle Salad offer the best clean keto ingredients, while the Cauliflower Carbonara is a rich, decadent meal loaded with flavor. Since they provide all the macronutrient info for every dish on the menu, you’ll know what you’re getting down to the gram.
Asian Box hearkens back to traditional Asian food-cart owners who bought their ingredients fresh every morning before pulling their cart to the market. They source their ingredients locally, use renewable packaging, and consume 30% less water and electricity than their competitors. The Chef’s Salad is a savory, protein-packed Asian salad with garlic beef or spicy chicken. Try the Steak and Curry Box for something even more filling – just ask them to hold the potatoes!

No keto-friendly restaurant list would be complete without a dedicated burger joint. Roam Artisan Burgers comes with an attached butcher shop, too. For homemade keto steak nights, you can order their locally ranched beef, lamb, pork, or poultry.
In the restaurant, skip the bun in favor of a lettuce wrap and you’re good to go. Pick from 100% grass-fed beef, free-range turkey, all-natural bison, or their in-house veggie patties. You can choose toppings yourself or opt for a burger designed by their creative and skillful chefs.
We recommend the Sunny Side with all-natural bison meat for a burst of cowboy heat – fontina, caramelized onions, greens, tomato topped with chili sauce, and a pasture-raised egg cooked sunny side up. By far the best keto burger in San Francisco!

Embrace down-home southern cooking at Brenda’s Meat & Three. Strict keto-dieters and casual carb-counters alike will find southern hospitality and meat in abundance here. Their blackened catfish and salmon deliver a dose of Omega-3s and protein to the clean keto crowd, while fried chicken and BBQ spareribs are a delight for the more flexible carb-counters.
In keeping with southern tradition, you will be spoiled for choice when picking three sides. They have copious vegetarian, vegan, and low-sugar offerings from down south, including fried okra, collard greens, and smothered green beans.
Once you’ve filled up and turned in for the night, you’ll want to grab a good night’s sleep so you can head back for Brenda’s Meat & Three for their great low-carb breakfast menu! Brenda’s Meat & Three may be the best keto breakfast in the San Francisco Bay Area!

Mediterranean food uses fresh, flavorful ingredients with just enough seasoning to delight the palate. A La Turca Restaurant is a can’t-miss, keto-friendly Mediterranean eatery in San Francisco with plenty of options.
The döner and kebab meals all offer that tasty Mediterranean rotisserie meat renowned worldwide – just avoid the pita and rice! You’ll find chicken, beef, and lamb seasoned to perfection on the A La Turca menu, with plenty of healthy veggies to round out a satisfying keto feast.

No San Francisco keto list would be complete without a dynamite steak house, and since 1949 House of Prime Rib has served some of the best beef in the Bay Area. Their prime rib is aged for 21 days, carved tableside to your specifications, and roasted to succulent perfection.
We suggest you opt for creamed spinach with bacon or a crisp salad bowl and load up on the King Henry VIII cut for a royal keto banquet. Delivering a rich, decadent low-carb experience, House of Prime Rib is the ultimate, go-big-or-go-home keto restaurant in San Francisco.
