Comfort Food Restaurants in San Francisco, CA

“Tonight was probably 5th or 6th time we have brought out of town guests to Hazie’s and yet another impeccable meal loved by all - the 4 of us shared the Oaxacan Cheese Fundido, a Caesar Salad, roasted Salmon with risotto, Grilled Wagyu Flat Iron Steak with Chimichurri sauce, fries and addictive flash fried broccolini, and a Strawberry Shortcake for dessert. We had prompt helpful service and the added joy of meeting the chef (Joey Altman) who stopped by the table to introduce himself and check on things personally - so welcoming and easy to talk to. We will definitely be back.“

“The Castro One of the best restaurants Quality organic food, professional and sweet waiters, nice music“

“Lovely friendly Italian wine bar and delicious restaurant. Fresh innovative salads, pastas and main courses. Highly recommended.“

“I ordered from uber eats, it was supposed to come with a free shrimp salad roll side, but I didn't get it. But I got everything else I paid for, so not a big deal. the red curry steak was very spicy for me but good. chicken also great too. would order again“

“Killer casual Japanese curry in the Mission district. The signature curry bowl was a slam dunk (we tried both the pork cutlet and chicken katsu — slight preference for the chicken). It was pretty sweet but the table had five different spices to add in, making it easy to get exactly the level of fire you want.

The portion was generous and since they don’t have a large menu, the food came out quickly. It’s a killer spot for a warm homey meal if you need food and you need it STAT.“

“We found this deli by luck! We decided on the Hayes Street Veggie Sandwich and were completely star struck! The Sandwich was delicious, the store was kitschy and warm, and the owner was sweet and talkative without being overbearing. Highly recommend this San Francisco icon.“

“Eat here once and you’re coming back. Eat here twice and you’re family. Best atmosphere in SF, incredible interesting wine list, service that is knowledgeable AND fun/grounded/ entertaining and the food, my god the food! This place just celebrated 23 years in business, they deserve At least 23 more!!!!“

“Loved the decor and the vibe，great place to hang out with friends.The food was absolutely delicious! The flavors were spot on.If you're in the area, this place is a must-try!“

“I tried the vegan sisig and it was incredible and such a great value. The service was fantastic, the restaurant is very clean, and the vibes are chill. I don't normally post reviews but seeing as how few there are for such a great place I had to spread the word.“

“Our hostess was awesome. She went above service level and worked with multiple bartenders and waitresses to find a place where the six of us could enjoy enjoy our music and food with heat. As you know the nights get cold and our original reservation had us outside but for some reason we were placed at a table without a heat lamp. The hostess did a great job and found us a perfect replacement. Good for her!“

“Food is great, cocktails are fantastic-

but the guy that welcomes you in, makes recommendations and cracks a little joke-

I don’t know his name but that guy is the biggest difference between The Grove and every other eatery in San Francisco. He really sets the atmosphere that reverberates through the rest of the restaurant.

I hope he’s here every time I am.“

“This was some of the best food I've had in a while. I tried several things. I'm not usually a fan of Brussel sprouts, but I wanted the calamari, so I got the sprouts and Calamari and it was so good! The Calamari is cooked perfectly and the sprouts were very flavorful. For the main dish we had the pork chop and apple sauce and the Bolognese. That pomegranate reduction on the pork chop was heavenly. The highlight however, is the Bolognese. I've never been to a restaurant and believed that the noodles were actually handmade. I've tried Bolognese very often and always been disappointed. I wanted to eat this stuff by the bucket. I can't wait to go back!“

“Ollei is a fantastic neighborhood find that brings a warm, welcoming vibe and top tier Korean comfort food to the bustling Russian Hill area. The atmosphere is cozy and character filled, making it a perfect spot for everything from a casual dinner to a late night craving. The service is consistently praised for being friendly and attentive, with thoughtful touches like hand drawn happy faces on takeout orders that show they truly care about their guests. The menu is packed with standouts: the Army Stew (Budae Jjigae) and Seafood Pancakes are absolute must orders for their rich flavors and generous portions, while the Soft Tofu Soup and Bulgogi consistently hit the mark for quality and authenticity. Don't miss the Ollei Chicken Wings perfectly crunchy and available with a delicious soy garlic or spicy glaze or the inventive Creamy Ttok & Pasta for a unique fusion twist. Whether you're diving into a hearty bowl of Beef Ramen or sharing a plate of Corn Cheese with friends, Ollei delivers a satisfying, 5-star experience that feels like a warm hug in every bite.“

“This location is a ghost kitchen. You cannot dine indoors. There are multiple restaurants at this location. This location is usually very fast and efficient. Of course they accept credit cards here and Apple Pay. Location is very centrally located in San San Francisco Francisco. I would definitely recommend this location to friends and family.“

“Great food and music. Xxx.“

“Very cozy and friendly customer service. The food is amazing and strongly recommended.“

“Tbk was not spicy enough, but I suspect they might have lowered the spice level to accommodate the majority customers who aren't used to the spice level.

Overall, taste was great, but the price is a bit high since you don't get that large of portion.“

“Literally stopped by on a total whim for a quick bite before valentines dinner but DAMN!!!

Super home made comfort salvadorean style cooking
WONT be fast since it's fresh 😎

I wasn't planning to leave a review, so the complete food plate never had a chance to look pretty but look at that freshness!

We got the 2 pupusa combo with rice and beans with a delicious agua de jamaica. All reasonably priced.“
