this breakfast burrito bowl is terrific!

Looks LA

Favorite little spot on the hill. Best lox bagels ever. Best kindest staff. Marina and Pedro are so kind and welcoming and make the best food and drinks I just adore this spot! True SF vibes. Been coming here since a baby 🥰🫶🏽

Amazing breakfast burrito, one of the best around. The cappuccino however lagged the burrito by a few minutes and was so badly burnt I couldn't finish it. Judging by other reviews, this has been a problem for quite some time. Oof.

quaint local cafe on top of potrero hill. unassuming from the outside but actually serves an above average sandwich at a great price point. would come back again when in the area!

the potrero: must try if you’re craving something slightly sweet

This cafe has a lovely spot on Potrero Hill. We bought coffees and a piece of loaf. The coffees were pretty average and the loaf was not made from scratch. Disappointing to us. We much preferred another cafe’s offerings nearby.

We had breakfast burritos and they were very delicious and huge. The price was decent for the size.

I live in the neighborhood and have been to this place a couple times- in spite of of myself. I must be insane, thinking that each time, it has to be better than the last, right?! Oh how wrong I am. The first time I had some sort of tea cake, and it tasted no better than something you might find at 7/11. The second time, I wanted to get a juice or lemonade, and the people can’t se to be bothered to take my order. The 3rd time, I got a mocha and the coffee was so sweet, it tasted like chocolate flavored coffee. (My husband got a latte between my 2nd and 3rd visit and it tasted awful as well.) If at all possible, avoid at all cost! They can’t be bothered to provide good service to provide good coffee. Think about the coffee before you go!

Came here after a long run and got a single smoothie and also tried my friend’s burrito!Good:- Fast service and really good prices for the area- The smoothie was so good and filling! I liked the summer fruit smoothie since it wasn’t overly sweet but it had a great flavor profile- Nice outdoor seating on a beautiful dayBad:- A more casual place, a little more run downOverall not a fancy place but it a good affordable place for food.

I used to live right near this cute little coffee shop so when I'm in the area I come by to get my favorite sandwich, the grilled veggie with added pesto. Just! know that if you want lunch, come early, as it closes at 2.

My son enjoyed his "summer fruits" smoothie, and it was priced very reasonably. The coffee was just okay-- it was luke warm and tasted a bit like it had been sitting out for a while.

Terrible experience the coffe was sour.waited a half an hour for a sandwich while the staff stood around gossiping about customers. I was on my lunch break so needless to say I went hungry today. If zero stars was an option then that’s what they’d get from me.
