“Excellent service and delicious food. Really loved the freshness of the crudo and the sandwich was very rich and perfect for sharing. Obviously great wine with a good selection of glasses and bottles available. Best to make a reservation because it's on the small side but definitely with a try.“
“The best dessert/ice cream in San Francisco and an absolute gem in sf. Hilas caffe is your one stop for Italian desserts- gelato, cakes, pastries- and Italian coffee.Hila’s gelato is absolutely amazing- perfect texture, light, not too sweet. The pistachio and saffron flavors are perfect. Her espresso is also great!There’s also all kinds of Italian pastries and desserts… including a pistachio cornetto, my favorite pastry in the world! Cornettos are similar to croissants (but imo, lighter, less sweet and just better). For 9 months, I’ve been trying to find a pistachio cornetto in San Francisco like the one I had while visiting Italy without success. I finally found it at Hila’s and it was perfect, filled with pistachio cream. I wish I took a picture.Hila herself is so funny and kind- and patiently practiced speaking Italian with me.Her space is in a lovely part of mission near Dolores park and has a few seats inside.If I lived closer, I’d probably come every day ;)Grazie Mille Hila :)“
“Hands down THE best croissant in San Francisco. But they have so much more than that. Pates, quiches, desserts - and they all look so Parisian. Walking in is an exercise in self control. But the good news is, if you do cave in, it’s worth it!“
“Run people RUN and GET YOURSELF A DONUT!!! We got a custard chocolate bar, sprinkled chocolate bar, a dozen of donut holes, and a maple donut ALLL FOR $6.75!!! I qua-triple checked cause I was in disbelieve that all these came out to be ONLY $6.75! The lady also hooked us up with a whole extra donut FOR FREE. Sorry I didn't get to take a picture they tasted so good I inhaled it all in 2 seconds hehe“
“Wildly popular and mostly lives up to the hype! Although, I think the Breakfast Sandwich and the Morning Bun are overrated. IMO, the Smoked Salmon Tartine and the Pressed Ham & Gruyère Sandwich are the can't miss highlights of the menu. The standard baked goodies like the Almond Croissant are also v solid. The big open seating space give me "easy like Sunday morning" vibes that you can keep going by swinging by Heath in the same building or just taking a stroll through the neighborhood.“
“When we sat down outside, with the blue hour sun hanging low across the city, the tray of gluttony and sugars sat so perfectly on our tray.Then a group of Patagonia-clad men stumbled in saying “with OpenAI” and I was reminded that we’re in San Francisco.The crookie was good, albeit not crispy. While the coffee vanilla mousse looked amazing on the outside, it was a tad too sweet. However, the highlight for me was the Imperial; paired with an iced cold brew, the decadent layers filled with a crumbly bottom and a sweet white filling inside was my favourite.Pretty good!“
“Treating myself to a Friday brunch and couldn’t have picked a better place! I was immediately greeted by a genuinely friendly waitress and there was plenty of seating to pick from. I’m always on the search for a good breakfast sandwich and theirs hit the spot - so good!! I actually really enjoyed the smaller portions because they were so flavorful, didn’t make me feel stuffed, and allowed me to try the doughnut plate too:) Will definitely be back for more!“
“Great service and ambiance. Place where there are great places to sit for a quick coffee, go heads down on your laptop, or have lunch with a small team or group of friends.I was not blown away by the coffee or food I tried, but was decent and made up for by the rest.“
“Il Canto Cafe is pretty awesome. Hella convenient for me because my office is upstairs. Back in the day, this used to be a Tully's coffee. To the right of it used to be a pretty busy Chinese restaurant. All that is gone now. This morning I got really hungry and weren't quite ready for lunch yet. The guy said good morning to me when I went out for a cigarette, so I decided to try their breakfast croissant (cheese egg sausage) $7. It was tasty! It hit the spot and I was ready for work again. Take-out service was excellent.“
“The space is small, and the tables are on top of each other . It’s cool it’s open late. See,Ed a bit dirty the floors and table, and some shady people homeless in and out. The Yemeni tea was absolute rocket fuel. Had me productive for hours lol . Cleanliness and lay out need to be worked in a bit here. The window bar is small on. Fits 1 maybe two people comfortably with laptop and coffee.Vegetarian options: There are noneDietary restrictions: No gluten free options or vegan sad.“
“We tried a bunch of coffee in this area, this one by the best one out of all of them. The croissant with chocolate was really good and we tried special coffee with coco y choco, which really good and my sister tried the cafe con morro which was good too but we found ourselves to be more of the coco choco gals. The cute lady behind the counter was very friendly and helpful in explaining things to us, the cafe is nice and spacious and clean. You want good coffee stop by here“
“Best breakfast burrito of my life hands down. The tater tots were crispy, eggs were flavorful and not dry, tortilla was warm and fresh. What a fantastic burrito. Also had a delicious piña fresa agua fresca. On top of the great food they are able to churn out orders so even though it was very busy the wait wasn’t bad at all.“
“Absolutely a hidden gem! I got a chileajo tamale and a Oaxacan hot chocolate. The tamale came with a sauce that was smoky, a little spicy, and the perfect compliment to the tamale. And it was only $6! Hot chocolate was also delicious and made by hand at our table. So happy to have found this place and would recommend to anyone visiting the Mission.“
“Latte art can't decide a good coffee, but can tells you at least they are serious about coffee. Here we have both good latte art and coffee. You can taste a perfect balance between bold coffee touches and sweetness. Not sure if it all tastes the same, but this morning I tasted walnuts and candy in it. The chocolate croissant is also perfect. Too bad they don't have enough space so you might have to line in the street for a while. But it will worth it.“
“The staff here are so delightful! This is a nice place to work since they have wifi + outlets (a rarity compared to other coffee shops). They play oldies that aren’t overly busy, which contributes to the overall charming + chill atmosphere. Wished there were more savory options (veggie plates? chicken and pesto sandwiches? egg + cheese bagels?) since I can’t eat ham (their current only savory option). Loved the brownie bites ?. Would like to see more seating and expanded menu options.“
“This has become our go-to cake for our birthdays, and we love it! The chocolate imperial cake is our favorite and it is a chocoholics dream. I never share it with anyone because it so darn tasty!It is pricier than a lot of other cake places, but well worth the money for a special occasion.“
“Ive been going to this bakery since 2018 and it's nice to see that they've grown a lot since. I personally recommend getting the OG pineapple bun with butter hot and fresh. This is truly the best way to enjoy it. This time I got the pineapple butter sampler to try the different butter options available. I love the cute container and size but it would've been nicer if we got to choose the butter options vs. the preselected options they had. One important tip- make sure you eat these buns warmed up/toasted. It makes a huge difference to the taste and turns it from something bland and cold to a beautiful crispy light fluffy bun.“
“So this was probably the best smoked salmon sandwich I had in my life so far. The Brazilian cream cheese is so good with the salmon!The coffee with milk didn't need sugar, it's just so refreshing on its own.I tried a small bite of the Veggie omelet, and the tapioca crepe is so good, and the omelet is even better.Highly recommended at the fisherman's wharf, with a order by number service, in a good location, I'm gonna say you have to try it here!Vegetarian options: You can get vegetarian options that are clearly marked. Pretty sure you can make minor substitutions, but you'll have to ask!“
“Living nearby, we consistently choose this spot for its unbeatable combination of food variety, prices, and exceptional staff.The open kitchen concept is a highlight, showcasing the chefs' remarkable speed and coordination.While weekends can get busy due to its popularity and small size, the overall dining experience never disappoints.Highly recommended for a satisfying meal close to home or if visiting SF!“
“I've tried espresso beans from a number of different local roasters. I'm so happy that I've finally found one near my home which has beans that are consistently great quality. The range of unique drinks that they make, awesome. I go in and get something different pretty much any time I get a new bag, or any time I'm passing by for that matter!“
“The avocado toast and Dulce de leche latte were delicious! They made the latte decaf at my request, and it was so good. I’m always grateful for a cafe that offers decaf espresso. The vibes and service were excellent. We came in on a Monday morning and were able to sit and enjoy breakfast! Highly recommend!“
“I only tasted the pain au chocolat and the choux and I was won over. The cabbages are super good, the taste is fine and sought after. The pain au chocolat is worth a French one. The place is pleasant and the staff welcoming. Only remark: the tea served in a small half-full mug, a little too light for my taste, even if I am used to European portions.“
“Great spot for excellent coffee, friendly baristas and a pure SF vibe to it all. Besides coffee and pastry offerings, Cafe Suspiro has a well curated selection of books and vinyl to shop. It’s a cafe definitely worth going out of the way for.“
“Home has some of my favorite drip coffee! It's a cute place with great decor. The staff is very friendly. It's a great spot to work or grab coffee with a friend. They have big windows and a bar seating option by the windows making it a bright and cheerful space. I got a bag of coffee to go and they gave me a free drip coffee with it. Great idea! They have a cute coffee and merch section as well. I love their logo and branding. They have a lot of great lattes on their menu that I want to try next time, including oat milk and almond milk options.“
“The flat white was quite good, and best of all, it didn't burn my mouth when I first took a sip. That's how you know your barista is great! I also got the banana bread, which was delicious, as well. All around worth the trip and I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in town. The only thing is I wish the chairs looked a little comfier and I might be more inclined to stick around and enjoy my coffee.“
“The coffee not just looks good, but also taste so good, I have to return just to get my birthday cake coffee, and it was worth it!!The only downside was someone so impolite touching my cup right after its finishing, and nobody told him not to do that before I came to take my order.But everything else was great, it's totally worth it to have your coffee here!“
“As soon as my husband and I walked in, the owner welcomed us with a warm smile. We both tried the cheeseburger, the fries, the chicken nuggets, and jalapeño poppers. The food was delicious and the service is excellent. We will definitely be back the next time we visit.“
“Great coffee, food, and natural lighting! Very cute and intimate. Small and only three small table but there are outlets and wifi if you purchase something + scan a barcode they have at the front.To use the bathroom you have to be a customer and ask them for the hotel key card to use the bathroom in the hotel next door. Some free parking a few blocks away but it is limited“
“I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE Uncle Benny's! The very first time I ordered from here, Charlie made it a point to ask for my name and actually remembered my name 2 weeks later when I came back! He also introduced me to his team Lily and Lynn (or Linh)! They made me feel so welcomed and that's why I go to them and have told many people I come across about them. They wake up at 3am to make their various homemade bagels and cream cheese. My favorite combo so far has been the pesto bagel with sun dried tomato cream cheese. Their Vietnamese coffee is really good too. Overall, EVERYTHING is good! This mom & pop store is a must if you're in the area or even in SF in general!“
“A great bakery house with a wide variety of pastries. I got $12 curry chicken sandwich. The bread is on the hard/ chewy side like french baguette and the filling is flavorful. The other bakeries I got are also noteworthy like the morning glory bread, the tomato basil scone, and the crazy cookie. I would say the crazy cookie is the most satisfying to me. Would love to try more things next time I visit the neighborhood.“
“My wife and I had the pleasure of working with Hahdough bakery to supply the cakes for our wedding. They were wonderful to work with and helped us to pick out the right 4 different cakes. Delivery was seamless and they worked with the venue for a timely drop-off. Our guests could not stop talking about how delicious the cakes were! It was a great way to offer our guests multiple options while being super affordable compared to traditional wedding cakes. Not to mention that the cakes were beautiful (see photos).“
“So glad this place is reopening at some point!! By far the best brunch place around. The staff is super friendly, the food is amazing, and make sure to get some of their secret spicy sauce on the side ;)Vegetarian options: There's def some decent vegetarian and vegan options on the menu!!“
“Love this bakery so much, you can never go wrong with their baked goods, don’t sleep on their pizza especially the pepperoni it’s so good! Along with the great food they serve they have an even better service, they’re very welcoming and kind.“
“You can't beat getting a hot beverage when you are chilly at the ocean! This place has a beach vibe. It's right at the city light rail turnaround for the N-Judah, which you can take to the beach and enjoy lunch at this cafe.Vegetarian options: I didn't see the menu, but they had hot chocolate, which is vegetarian, if not strictly vegan. They had oat milk, though, which is nice.“
“We have walked past here for years, and I don't know why!!!! This Cafe has has a wonderful atmosphere of chattiness and welcomeness that you could find. Add the graciousness of the staff and it's amazing. We went for a late breakfast, and then went back the next day for a late breakfast. We ordered the Peanut Butter Açaí bowl, which was the perfect blend of açaí and peanut butter smoothie with the fresh fruit and granola on top. Add a pastry and it's perfect for brunch. Well worth your time and I'm so glad we slowed down and did a double take.“
“This was a welcome stop on my walking tour of SF. The barista asked if it was to go or for here, and I'm glad to see a comfortable, reusable porcelain cup for the "here" customers. The staff helped me find an outlet for my phone as I sipped. The coffee was a little more acidic for my taste; that is a preference. It was very good coffee. The price was lower than I expected.“
“In San Francisco in my opinion people are not always nice including service people, this place was awesome. They ice cream was delicious. I think the owner served us and he was super nice accommodated lots of samples, delicious, ice cream, and very reasonable prices.“
“Visitation Valley unique neighborhood coffee house.... delicious pastries and coffee servings. If the weather is sunny and dry, and a outdoor seating is is available, take a load off and sit for awhile and watch life meander by. Friendly staff...and they serve Teapig tea! If I'm in the area again, I'll drop in..and even buy from their gift shop area. GO and enjoy!“
“As an ube lover, it made my day to find this place! They serve ube pastries from Ube Area and also specialty drinks including the Ube Matcha Latte. I got the ube tiramisu (are you kidding me!!) and the ube pandan brownie - you cannot go wrong with these!The barista was so kind and helped answer any questions I had and she was the one that recommended the tiramisu for me. It's more of a local cafe for the neighborhood so it was pretty quiet - there were a few bar seats by the window and a big table at the back.“
“I was visiting the city and stopped by for some breakfast with friends which turned out to be the best decision ever! We had the everything bagel with cream cheese, croissant with egg and cheese, and croissant with tuna, tomatoes, lettuce, and hot sauce (if not more items). The food was rich in flavour and the staff are incredible and very nice. We stopped by the next day for some more croissants with egg and cheese!“
“What a beautiful coffee shop! Lots of outdoor seating too. I loved that this was just a few steps from our airbnb when we visited SF. they have lots of options and everything was delicious. I love a chai latte so of course I ordered the ginger and turmeric chai. Wow!! So flavorful and so delicious. Spicy!! My hubby got the vanilla latte and their vanilla was wild! Sooo good. Better than any vanilla latte I've ever had. Great spot to check out!“
“Heavenly sandwich, bread has some crunch, in a good way. Not too much bread, lots of greens so almost like a sandwich plus salad. One sandwich is enough for two 47 yr old people. Sandwiches not good as leftovers, bread gets wet. No tables, meant to eat at Alamo Park. Ordered from their website on the way so it was ready when we arrived.Parking: Had to circle once to find a street spot. Wednesday is no parking at lunch due to street sweeping. Two blocks away was OK on Wednesday.“
“I was very excited to visit Jina on my trip, but I wish they had more interesting vegetarian friendly-options like the injeolmi croissant.The black sesame and matcha cream puffs are pretty classic, safe Asian flavors, and I was very confused by the sweet roti croissant.The lemon sesame wheel was pretty unique, but $10 is pushing it for a pastry IMO.Visited on a Friday morning an hour after opening and there was a small line that moved quickly. All the items were still in stock. Only 2 customers are allowed in the small shop at a time. They take cash and card.“
“Went to a fun chocolate tasting "date night" event at a local chocolate shop in San Francisco. Got to learn more about the effort that goes into every step of the chocolate making process, from sourcing chocolate made from the rare heirloom variety of single origin cacao beans, to the structural integrity of the chocolate, to the creative symphony of flavors and textures. Carol, the head chocolatier and founder of Kokak Chocolates, has managed to bring all of these details together into delicious, fine chocolates and sweets. The chocolate outer layer is made with 70% chocolate. It's very smooth and well balanced. We got to try their most recent batch, called Hearts on Fire, and they were tropical and delightful: -Guava Crisp -Passion Paradise -Cafe Au Lait We also enjoyed a yummy champorado shooter, which is a Filipino chocolate rice porridge. Their brownies were melt-in-your-mouth good.“
“One of my friends allowed me to taste some food from this place I was so taken the next day I immediately went to have my own! the people was just as friendly and warm and most of all welcoming.so it wasn't just about the food but it was the atmosphere and the smiles I'll recommend this place to the world they brought me the closet to tasting some New Orleans food!!!“
“The best sandwiches, drinks, and smoothies in Nob Hill! They have breakfast and lunch items. We come here for breakfast all the time.Get their Lavender Latte (or any one of their smoothies!) and Bacon, Egg, Cheese Everything Bagel (my husband likes the English Breakfast Sandwich) - they're to DIE for!!!Everyone is extremely friendly, kind, and the service is prompt and professional!“
“Good coffee, but on the pricier side for the size. The orange blossom is my favorite. The golden goat is good (though I am a big fan of goat cheese so that is probably a good indicator of whether or not to try it). Nice staff, animal friendly.“
“The ham and cheese croissant is the best of ever had in San Francisco. Oh my God. I did get a black coffee which maybe was a mistake, cuz it was not that great. But honestly that doesn't matter. Every single pastry looks amazing, I will be back and will be getting espresso instead of drip.“
“Excellent coffee and healthy vegan lunch in the Bayview. Beans are owner roasted, adding to the local charm.Vegan Fried Chicken, yummy — battered mushrooms, crispy fried. When in the mood, treat yourself to a side of thinly sliced French fries. Wash down with the house made Ginger Brew (Suriname style), for a spicy refreshing finish.Extensive outdoor seating in parklette.Vegetarian options: Vegan fried chicken. French fries.“
“I think I ate every“ wow that’s great banhmi! “ spot around lately and ;Pork banhmi = warm bread , well seasoned! ? I would put just little bit of more veggies to balance the meat and veggie ratio or add chunky peanut sauce which makes a perfect bite to swallow in every time.Egg rolls are served warm and I like that the fish sauce has the right density& salt.Ps. Don’t forget to watch rolling the king roll 101 video that I haven’t record yet lol -(yes pretty much joint rolling but better)“
