The Best Easter Brunch Specials In San Francisco

If you haven't booked a table for Easter brunch yet, make like a bunny and hop to it!

Easter is right around the corner, and whether you plan to spend the day hunting for candy-filled eggs or celebrating with loved ones, you'll want to fuel up with some delicious food before the festivities begin. You could whip something up in your own kitchen, but if you ask us, Easter brunch just tastes better when you don't have to cook it yourself.

That's where these San Francisco restaurants come in: They've pulled out all the stops on their special Easter menus, from Dungeness crab salad and slow-roasted ham to signature cocktails and decadent desserts.

Even better, most of them have tempting prix fixe options that are available only on April 1. So hop to it and book your table before reservations filled up. Happy Easter!
