San Francisco diners used to drive to Marin County or track down a traveling truck to enjoy the namesake specialty of this outstanding shop before it settled down in a sunlight-drenched space with a few tables. The dreamy, fluffy doughnuts made with organic wheat flour (milled at cool temperatures for freshness) and local ingredients might be the city's best, whether it's a strawberry-peach-jam-filled Bismarck or a chocolate-glazed vegan doughnut (which uses roasted sweet potato).
