Blue Barn Gourmet

Pin It Now!

This is probably one of my favorite salads in San Francisco.  I'm always on the lookout for a salad spot that replicates my beloved Sprout Cafe in Palo Alto, but nothing comes close.  Blue Barn in the Marina district seems to appease my salad cravings.  I've always found the lettuce to topping ratio to be very good.  While all the salads and sandwiches are really good, the spicy ahi tuna is my usual here.  It has pretty much everything I love - ahi tuna, avocado, soba noodles, pieces of mango, all tossed in a miso-ginger vinaigrette.

Blue Barn also does a solid caesar salad (chicken is an add on), but the best part is it includes avocado!  This place is really popular, especially on the weekends.  I'd suggest calling in for a to go order, otherwise, you'll be waiting a while.
