The only place I'd ever buy diamonds
We bought my engagement ring as well as our wedding bands from Brilliant Earth and had a wonderful experience. Founded by a husband and wife team, they sell only conflict-free diamonds and recycled metals. Having not shopped around I'm no sure how this price compares, but I can relay this story.
After several meetings with co-founder Eric, who was great at teaching us about diamond selection, we took a look through their offerings on-line. After selecting one, he actually talked us DOWN to a diamond about $1000 cheaper that he thought might be better quality for what we were most interested in. Talk about customer service! And he was right - the stone was perfect. Between the quality, service, and of course the eco-friendliness, I can not recommend them more highly.

My favorite new Mission restaurant
You don't generally expect a restaurant with an animal in the title to be so vegan-friendly, but Weird Fish has something for everyone. In addition to their fishy dishes they have a number of veggie options, which all rotate. They make "fish sticks" out of tempeh, seitain, or tofu depending on the day. My favorite is the latter. If you haven't had your fill of fried foods, the fired pickles are also amazing, as well as their mix of regular and sweet potato fries.
They make a great vegan brunch as well, frequently offering breakfast tacos and vegan pancakes. I've never had a bad meal here. All their ingredients are so fresh and from what I've read it sounds like they're really committed to fresh, local, sustainable ingredients.

Vegan food at a great price
With some fancier vegan restaurants out there, you can't quite expect the same quality from Herbivore that you would at a place with higher prices. But since not every meal can be at Millenium, this is a nice cheaper option.
I tend to avoid the salads, which are often over-dressed. But the sandwiches are great, as well as their brunch which is some of the best in the city. The tempeh BLT or the "sausage" biscuit are my personal favorite. The service can be hit or miss, so not my first choice if I'm in a rush.

The best vegan restaurant in the country!
In VegNews magazine, Millenium is frequently voted the best vegan restaurant in the country. Having not sampled them all, I can't make that claim, but it's certainly the best one I've eaten at. It's a pricey night out for sure, but it's always a special event and well worth the cost.
Entrees tend to run between $20-25 each. It's comparable to Greens in price, but I find the quality superior. At Geary and Jones, you don't quite get the nice view, but it hardly matters. The desserts are to die for, and as an appetizer suggestion, I always go for the battered oyster mushrooms. The entrees change frequently, but I've never had one I didn't absolutely love.
