The quality is exceptional, and the price is more than fair for what they deliver.“

“I just love this place! The service is always SO FAST, excellent, and so warm. All the servers are just fantastic. Great for lunch/dinner (Turkey club is my fave) but the breakfast is where they really shine. Love the popeye scramble with several cups of grat coffee. Very old school local vibes. I hope they are around forever!“

“Amazing!! Enjoyed our dinner very much! Chicken was so tender. The flavor was amazing. Definitely will eat here again!“

“VERY GOOD. I almost gave it a 5. The pasta is overcooked so I would ask for al dente next time. The linguine carbonara was the star - definitely getting it again.

The penne with sausage was good but id try something else next time

Drinks were just ok, maybe they were having an off day.“

“Awesome sandwich. I had the Piccolo... ham, turkey, roast beef, with Provolone cheese on a wheat roll. Add avocado! They add a half of avocado to the sandwich. Epic Sammie, great people, nice place off the beaten path. My first time here. Too bad I am only in town for a couple days. I would definitely come back again. Reasonable prices too.“

“Very friendly staff and delicious food. The variety is great! Definitely a go to place if you like Sushi 🍣 🤙🥇“

“What delicious food! The service was quick and options were authentic and delicious. We loved their hot and sour soup and the pan fried soup dumplings. We got sesame balls for dessert on the house. We even left with more food than originally ordered and some extra good fortune!“

“Café Bunn Mi in South San Francisco is hands-down one of my favorite spots for comfort food!

Their garlic noodles are absolutely delicious full of flavor and perfectly cooked every time. I pay for extra noodles! I spoil myself like that all the time!

The imperial rolls and egg rolls are always crispy, fresh, and packed with goodness. For the imperial rolls I always pay for extra lettuce! They come with the vermicelli noodles and fish sauce!!!

Their fried chicken sandwich is another must-try: crunchy, juicy, and so satisfying.

And of course, you can’t forget the Thai iced tea sweet, creamy, and the perfect drink to tie it all together.

Great food, great service, and always consistent. Highly recommend!“

“Thankful for this location being nearby me so I don’t have to drive to the city. They give generous portions and have the best service. This is one of the best taquerias in South San Francisco. I rotate tacos, super burritos and super nachos with carne asada, al pastor, carnitas and shrimp. They’re also open late.“

“We went here for lunch while in San Francisco on business. I had the roasted duck and barbecued pork on rice, and it was excellent. The other three colleagues that were with me said theirs was outstanding also. One of them is a local and makes a point of going there weekly. Service was just a little bit slower than what I would have expected since we were there early right when they opened, but perhaps that's why it was a little slow because they had just barely opened for the day. The staff were exceptionally friendly and kind. Prices for very reasonable and parking was easy. I definitely recommend this place for a great lunch meal.“

“I always get good food and great service. Take out or dine in .“

“Feel like you need to deport yourself in San Bruno? Head over and indulge yourself out here out to Mexico! Had an amazing experience here for a to go order.

“Left side inexpensive bread (check expiration dates) for any budget. Right side fresher but more expensive. Good choices and some sales. Call ahead if looking for specific type of bread, they have days where bare bones due to buyers and truck delivery timelines.“

“Absolutely amazing experience! The pizza was so good, and the service was even better. The young gentleman Yacoub was incredibly helpful, friendly, and made us feel really welcome. I also love that they’re open late, perfect spot for those weekend nights. I’ll definitely be coming back again! Highly recommend! 🍕🔥“

“Consistently solid food and service. Our go-to neighborhood Chinese restaurant for eat-in or drlivery.“

“I just received the utensil set and they are very nice and well made. My only complaint is the DHL mail service and USPS that the company uses. Old country kitchenware sent the order out quickly but it didn't matter when DHL and USPS let's the order set for day's on end. Please offer FedEx or UPS.“

“Oh my goodness. Such a gem in the rough. Amazing food in the middle of an industrial area. I'm an old fat white guy, and the meal defeated me. For the first time in a long time, I needed a doggy bag. The Shawarma were delicious as were the pickled veggies and cole slaw. The Arabic coffee was to die for. So rich and thick!“

“you guys are straight fire 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 OMG. i can't. you guys were here at Stanford. your Burgers and Fries even your chicken sandwich was simply the best! whenever I have a big event I am definitely renting you guys out if I can.“

“Flavas Jamaican Grill is a true hidden gem in South San Francisco, conveniently located near the airport and hotels. While the restaurant is small, and parking can be a challenge (you might need to park down the street), the food more than makes up for any inconvenience. I highly recommend ordering ahead, especially during the evening, as the space can get crowded with customers and delivery drivers. If you're dining with a family, the limited seating may not be the most comfortable, but the incredible food makes it worth it. The jerk salmon is the star of the menu perfectly cooked with a smoky, tangy heat that melts in your mouth. It's hands down the best salmon I’ve ever had, with flavors that are bold yet perfectly balanced. The jerk chicken is also a standout, and the sides like dirty rice and plantains are the perfect complements, creating a delicious harmony of flavors. If you’re feeling adventurous, don’t miss out on the oxtail or the wings both are packed with rich, authentic flavor. Pair your meal with one of their imported Jamaican sodas or a ginger beer for a truly immersive experience. As someone from Fresno, where Jamaican food is nonexistent, Flavas has been my first and only Jamaican food experience and it has set the bar incredibly high. The flavors are vibrant and comforting, giving you a true taste of Jamaica. Other patrons rave about their curry goat and daily specials, which I plan to try on my next visit. Whether you’re a local or passing through South San Francisco, Flavas Jamaican Grill is a must visit for anyone craving bold, authentic flavors. Just be sure to plan ahead for seating and parking, and prepare to be wowed by the food! Food: 5/5 Service: 4/5 (due to limited seating and busy atmosphere) Atmosphere: 4/5“

“First time here….Mexican sandwich with carnitas… OMG so delicious“

“Great place to have lunch. I especially like to order the Curry chicken. It is the best in town! Try it and you won't be disappointed!“
