Proper Food launched in San Francisco in 2014 and has rapidly grown to 16 locations in San Francisco and the South Bay earning accolades from customers, food critics, and local media.

We cook all our meals from scratch each morning in our commissary kitchen and deliver them to our stores pre-packed and ready to go. At the end of each day, all unsold meals are donated to local food banks.
