I was there for a private party. Loved everything about this place! The food was excellent, best Chicken Satay I've had in years!The service was impeccable & the ambiance very nice!

Great restaurant with great flavors. The garlic prawns came in a delicious sauce. The Mississippi Pot Roast was tender and really well seasoned.

Excellent fresh food at a decent price. Also a variety of cocktails. My only complaint is that I was freezing. It's super cold in there.

Happened to be in the area and stopped in for dinner. Nice neighborhood bar vibe with a good menu. The meatloaf dinner was on special and very tasty. With a beer, tax and tip it was about $33. I plan to return when in the neighborhood.

Places like this are frustrating because they have so much potential, but just don’t seem to care enough.The food was very bland. No seasoning, no glaze, no flavor, just… cooked ingredients. With how much restaurants are charging these days, I need more effort when it comes to flavor. Same with the drink— it wasn’t good. I barely touched it. And nobody asked me why. The servers didn’t check in once through the whole meal.I liked the menu, but the execution left a lot to be desired. It wasn’t terrible, but wouldn’t eat there again.

Awesome lunch spot by the 19th St BART station. Personal favorites are the BLT and Club Sandwich with pepper jack cheese. What sets this place apart from other sandwich shops nearby is that there's a quiet seating area in the back that has never filled up when I've been here for weekday lunches.

I don't know why Yelp is flagging this location as closed. As of 1/15/20, I just ordered 30 sandwiches for breakfast for our staff meeting and, as usual, it was delicious. This location is very much still open!

Friendly staff. Expensive for the microwaved tiny breakfast sandwich you get. Aroma cafe up the street is cheaper and everything is fresh and not microwaved. They were closed so I figured I would try something else.

This cafe is a great spot to grab a quick bite to eat before you start your day. They have a very diverse menu which includes many classic breakfast favorites such as bagels and croissants and they also stock many sweet treats to pair with your morning Java, such as lemon squares and pastries. They are quick at completing orders no matter how busy they become, but overall I think that the quality needs work. I would visit here again for coffee, but until their breakfast sandwiches gain some flavor and character; I will stop down the way for a quality handheld meal.

This is an excellent cafe because they work hard to please their customers. They make a great breakfast with choices of coffee, delicious pastries, awesome desserts, sandwiches and my favorite: their handmade pizza! It is worth the wait if you come by and it is not done. The best part of delicious food is a great price. All items are priced reasonably and I have rarely been dissatisfied. Thank you, Zaya Cafe!

I love this place! It's my favorite place to go for coffee and breakfast before I work nearby on Tuesday's. They have great breakfast and lunch options, my favorite is the bacon avocado cream cheese bagel! They also have many coffee and drink options. I just tried their blended latte and it is amazing. They also have assorted canned and bottled drinks like red bull, apple juice, ORANGINA! I haven't tried any of their baked goods yet but they look tasty, I have my eye on the macarons, lemon bars, and cream puffs although there are many other options for baked goods and pastries. They are nice people and fast! Thank you to the owners and staff for helping me start my work days off proper :)
