EaterSF reported that SR24 is expected to open on February 1 in the Temescal. Pasta, fried chicken, pot roast, upside down cake and doughnuts with coffee sauce are on Chef Josh Woodall’s sample menu. Named after State Route 24, and located a couple blocks from the 51st street exit, it’s a “classic American eatery with a subsciousness for sustainability and the community.”

Hibiscus, a Caribbean Creole restaurant was originally supposed to open in September in the old Sweet Jimmie’s space. But after several delays, Chef Sarah Kirnon (of SF’s Front Porch) and manager Omar White (of Chez Panisse and Pizzaiolo) finally opened for dinner service on Wednesday! Still no word on the grand opening of Town Hall, the new live music venue, or Density, a clothing boutique, which will also be in the same location.
