“Such a great find! We walked here from our hotel in Union Square, & though there were a lot of people waiting to be seated, we only had to wait about 10 minutes- the cycle through folks quickly! We were in and out in an hour. My boyfriend (who is not vegan) & I (a am vegan) both got the same thing- oat milk vanilla lattes and the vegan burrito. They were both absolutely killer. And don’t sleep on the hot sauce! We paid $67 for our meal, which wasn’t great, but it’s SF, so normal prices. Would absolutely go here again. My bf agreed that it was a great spot, he also loved it.“

“The food was decent. You get a lot of food for the price. The staff was quiet and serviceable. We were grateful to find them open, almost everything else on the street was closed or boarded up. We had arrived too early to get into our air bnb, and needed to hang somewhere close. We didn't know the neighborhood at all. There seemed to be 2-3 times more of the homeless in the streets of San Francisco, compared to home. This made me sad.
We had to suddenly leave, I think because we were the only people there and the last staff person wanted to go home.“

“This restaurant is great in everyway , the food,the crew ,the coffee (ufff excelent) and the place in general is great to relax and enjoit every moment you're there.“

“Cafe Isabella's delicious food (they serve my favorite San Francisco burrito), and overall appealing aesthetic design reflect the fine tastes of its owner, Hilda. And, I happily note that Cafe Isabella strictly adheres to COVID-19 mitigation best practices.“

“I ordered the Drunken Noodle beef & Shrimp pad Thai
Drunken Noodle Beef is a solid 100/10
Just amazing. Best beef noddles I’ve had in a minute
Savory, delicious , amazing
, and looks great

Shrimp pad Thai is a solid 2/10
All u can taste is just spice not heat spice but just spice. And shrimp was like shredded chicken and like over done to the Max.
This place deserves 5 stars for the beef noodle alone.
I had a couple bites then had to share sorry.“

“So pleased we stumbled across this amazing coffee shop / diner. Friendly staff and atmosphere.. Cosy restaurant serving a great range of food in a great location, but doesn’t feel touristy 👌☺️“

“I give this place the top spot as the best 💎in San Francisco for delicious food, drinks, friendly and sociable staff, great atmosphere, and music. There's a wide selection of dishes! The lentil soup is a bit spicy for my taste, so keep that in mind if you're ordering for kids!☝️“

“Another great little diner/organic sandwich bar. Very busy and worth the wait. Cops queuing inside is always a good sign. If you're English and cannot drink coffee, this was THE BEST place to get a decent cup of tea. Restroom is step-free but tucked away in the corner of the cafe making it very difficult for wheelchair users but ok for ambulant disabilities.“

“Great food always! Old school comfort food (french toast, omelettes, waffles, pancakes plus a lot more ) be prepared to wait if you are going on the weekend.“

“Jen and Cecy and the team at Cafe Soleil catered our wedding at the Brazilian Room, and it was a wonderful experience. The food was absolutely delicious, they took care of *everything* in the venue, and they were truly a joy to work with. Cecy was very responsive, professional, and patient with our many questions and requests. During the reception, the staff was wonderful with the passed appetizers and the bar, and the servers took care of us (bride and groom) with special attention. At the end of the evening, once our guests were done with the bar, the bartender even came out on the dance floor to teach us a line dance. :-) Jen is a treasure: her professionalism is suffused with genuine warmth, and we felt well taken care of from the very beginning of the process. And did I mention the food was amazing?“

“Great breakfast and also brunch place to meet friends at.“

“I had the salmon croquettes and they were absolutely amazing!!“

“My Mother and I enjoy eating here periodically. She loves their thick, Belgian waffles while I usually opt for the sausage only or sausage and mushroom omelet with tater tots. I cannot eat the entire omelet so I take half of it home for breakfast the next day. Service is quick and friendly and prices are reasonable. A nice, low-key gem in Alameda.“

“Cute lil mom and pop shop Cafe which I believe is owned and operated by one family. Kenny Nguyen is the owner and I believe he operates with his wife, daughter and mother. They were all very sweet and the food was delicious and delivered fast with the utmost courtesy.

There are only 3 2-tops inside and 1 3-top table outside. There's also a bar that looks like it can handle a couple other patrons.

Walking distance from many hospitals“

“One of my favorite restaurants in the park for brunch. The donuts are delicious and the service is always so friendly.“

“Great place! Comfortable and quiet. I ordered the turkey sausage and an egg over easy, and they were perfectly cooked. The sausage was as tasty as a beef or beef/pork sausage, so I went for the healthier option and was so happy I did so! Service was excellent. Not crowded and very quiet and relaxing on a weekday at 10 am. I’ll be back for sure!“

“Excelente restaurante! Muy buena comida y servicio. Se ha convertido en mi desayuno favorito 💕“

“Just a hot chocolate drinker here, who found this place charming and peaceful. We pay before leaving and a lot of people come in couples, that say a lot. It's actually busier than we think. This review was written under st Martin's eyes, so you can count on my honesty.“

“We’ve worked with Ruru Kitchen on several large catering orders for our office, and they’ve been an absolute dream to work with. The team is responsive, organized, and always on time. They make the entire process incredibly easy - from helping us plan a thoughtful, delicious menu that accommodates all dietary needs, to setting everything up beautifully on the day. Our employees always rave about the food, they are a huge hit every time. The personal touches really shine through, and they always work with us to stay within our budget. I’m so grateful for their partnership and can’t wait to work with them again for our next event!“
