Greens Restaurant is a landmark vegetarian restaurant^[1][2] in the Fort Mason Center in the Marina District, San Francisco, California, overlooking the Golden Gate Bridge.

Founded by the San Francisco Zen Center in 1979,^[3][4] Greens has been credited in The New York Times as "the restaurant that brought vegetarian food out from sprout-infested health food stores and established it as a cuisine in America."^[5]

Greens has a legacy of female lead chefs, beginning with founding chef Deborah Madison, and followed by Annie Somerville, Denise St. Onge, and currently Katie Reicher.^[6][7] The restaurant utilizes fresh produce from the organic Green Gulch Farm Zen Center.
