Little Gem is a casual quick-serve restaurant that's new to San Francisco that's attracting the interest of diners seeking convenient, healthy eats—especially those who are careful to avoid sugar, gluten and dairy in their diets.
The restaurant will boast a seasonal menu, where diners can craft their own dishes using a combination of proteins, grains and vegetables. Alongside an assortment of soups, salads and wraps, wine and beer will also be on the menu, likely in keeping with the gluten-free theme.
In keeping with the fast casual concept, Little Gem will have no traditional table service in its 2,000 square foot space. Nestled at the base of 32 high-price condos, Little Gem will be a convenient option for local residents looking for breakfast, lunch, dinner, as well as a quick brunch on the weekends.
