Even steaks are healthy when grass-fed ...
1. Greens (Marina) - Vegetables grown by Marin County Buddhist monks. Experience the zen of eating.
2. Nopa (Western Addition) - Fresh scrumptious organic and locally obtained vegetables and meats in clever combinations.
3. Cafe Gratitude (Sunset District) - Rich nut-mashed pesto, blended almond milk and mint smoothies and lacey vegetables are eco-ecstasy.
4. Flora (Oakland) - Red meats always on point, as are the desserts and apps. Did we mention the amazing cocktails?
5. The Slanted Door (Financial District) - Food as incredibly sparkling and fresh as the ocean view.

I love the Slanted Door. I really do. But they fail two thirds of this list because
1) No more raw than the average restaurant.
2) Not particularly organic. See this CUESA link about Chue’s Farm: http://www.cuesa.org/markets/farmers/farm_21.php
That said, they make delicious food ... at least as of the last time I ate there a couple years ago.
