Quince is a restaurant in the Jackson Square neighborhood in San Francisco, California. Opened in 2003 by chef Michael Tusk and his wife, Lindsay, in Pacific Heights, the restaurant has been located in Jackson Square since 2009. A sister restaurant, Cotogna, opened next door in 2011.[1]

In 2017, Quince became only the sixth restaurant in the San Francisco Bay Area to be awarded three Michelin stars by the Michelin Guide.[2]

The Tusks partner with Fresh Run Farms of Bolinas in sourcing exclusive produce.[3] The restaurant also features a global selection of caviar.[4] Until 2023, a prepaid ten-course tasting menu was the only dining option. In 2023, Quince closed for 11 months, reopening in spring 2024 with a four-course dinner and à la carte dining available as alternatives in the salon and bar, while the tasting menu continues to be served in the dining room for $390 per person.[5]
