    I ordered the bacon avocado breakfast burrito and it was delicious! The salsa on the side was equally delicious. The yogurt parfait had the right amount of fruit to yogurt ratio. I like this place a lot and will totally come back and try more items from the menu. The service is outstanding. They came over and offered me a to go box without my even asking. We walked here. Please come and create your own adventure.

    carrot cake latte, Pistachio Lime latte

    I ordered a carrot cake latte ($8) and pistachio lime latte ($8) via delivery and they came in cute little cups. I loved the variety and uniqueness of specialty lattes and would come back to try more of those I was intrigued by. the carrot cake latte didn't really taste like carrot cake but it was good, not too sweet. the pistachio lime combo was more prominent and interesting, but could be a bit stronger of both flavors. the espresso base was good in both!

    I absolutely love Alushe Coffee Bar. Tucked right on the corner of 6th Ave & Geary--conveniently next to a bus stop and, lucky for me, directly across from my office--it's become one of the bright spots of my day. Walking into Alushe always feels like stepping into a warm, welcoming community haven. The family who owns and runs the coffee bar greets you as if you're part of their own. They call me by name every time, and that small gesture never fails to make my morning. Marco, the barista, is nothing short of a culinary scientist. Every drink he crafts is a thoughtful blend of fresh ingredients, creativity, and genuine care. And his wife, Jessica, welcomes you with a smile so warm it could lift anyone's spirits. Whether you're settling in to start your morning or grabbing a quick treat to go, the experience is always delightful. The menu itself carries a unique Maya-inspired vibe, bringing a taste of Yucatán right into the neighborhood--fresh juices, breakfast sandwiches, empanadas, salads, pastries, and so much more, all made to order. My personal favorites? The carrot cake latte and the BLTA on sourdough--truly unbeatable. Alushe Coffee Bar is a must-try neighborhood gem, the kind of place that turns a simple coffee stop into a moment of joy.

    This is a great Mexican Deli type casual restaurant, offering a wide range of familiar Mexican casual food offerings, but also offering Coffees, too! Great spot in the Inner Richmond district of SF! It is like Starbucks meets El Farolito, or Peet's meets La Taqueria! Except it is family run, it is cleaner than those other food places, and has a lot more table and chairs to sit at then El Farolito. Plus it has beautiful, full wall murals that are gorgeous and makes you feel like you are somewhere in Latin America, sipping your Java while stuffing your abdominal storage unit with yummy food! And there is a lot to store! I ordered a medium Latte, with 2%, and a "Super" (add avocado and sour cream) Pollo (chicken) Quesadilla, and wow, that Quesadilla was humongous among us! It could feed 2! I couldn't finish it and I asked for a take away box! I couldn't eat more than half of it! So thick and tasty! And that all came out to $20. Enough to stuff my pie hole, fill my storage unit, and some extra for late night snack on a second go at it! Service was super nice and friendly from what I think perhaps was 3 generations of Family here when I was meeting a client here? Very sweet people! This is on Geary near 7th Avenue, close to the Kaiser Permanente French Campus medical offices. I would recommend this place to check out if you are in the area. Tell a friend! When good food, good people, good art, and good intentions come together, you have to check it out!

    CARDAMOM LATTE

    I wasn't sure what the name meant, but glad I walked in, this place is a hidden gem. Back in the day when I was traveling through Mexico, my go to meal was fresh Latin breakfast, fruit smoothies and a nice latte and this place brought huge nostalgia of that for me. The ambiance is also great to get some work done with good wifi and plenty of outlets. The owners, husband and wife, seem really nice. I only got a chance to speak to the husband and he was super enthusiastic in giving me good recommendations and explaining the dishes. I also loved the murals here, definitely coming back.

    A family-owned gem! We ordered different lattes and breakfast items, and everything was so flavorful. I'm most impressed by their coffee. You can tell they love to get creative and are passionate about delivering great food + service.

    Mayan Mocha
    Annelise H.

    Love this new coffee bar on Geary. I tried the Mayan Mocha hot and the bacon, onion croissant--both delicious. It's so cool to get chocolate from the Yucatán! It's also conveniently located near the 38/38R bus stop and other local businesses on Geary. Really appreciate the Mayan decor and friendly staff too. I'm excited to come back and try the veggie tamales.

    I work across the street and Alushe is my go to place when I need a quick bite or pick me up! Food, drinks and service are phenomenal! Jess and Marcos really make everyone feel welcome as soon as you walk in

    Chilaquiles with green salsa
    Rochelle S.

    My favorite chilaquiles! This cafe has the KINDEST staff and such good food. They always greet you like you are a regular when you come in. They have a super varied menu. Personally I always get the chilaquiles with green salsa (you can also get red), and it's not spicy but you can add spicy salsa on the side. I prefer their seasonal lattes over their coffee, but they have a lot of options. Inside there are a lot of tables and looks like your typical classic coffee shop. They are working on a beautiful mural right now, so that'll add some color.

    the employee chased me down the block to ask my what did i see tht was so bad. why would i write a bad review? ma'am its dirty!!

    I couldn't get past the dirtiness let alone place an order, I'll pass. There is no way with that many people working behind the counter it should be that many spots of dirt, there's no way, germs at the buffet. Yuck!!!! small business does not equate to lack of standards. Ironically the employee chased me down to ask why i had a problem with establishment. Ma'am stand where I stood and tell me what you see....filth!!!!!!!!

    Horchata with a shot of espresso and Bacon & Avocado Breakfast Burrito with Chorizo.
    Joanne H.

    Such a good breakfast spot! Ordered a Horchata with espresso shots added and a Bacon & Avocado Breakfast Burrito with Chorizo added. 10/10 food and service! Jessica took our order and has the bubbliest personality. Great Ambiance and can't wait to come back and try lunch and dinner. Jessica mentioned they do banana leaf tamales as well as traditional masa.

    This is a relatively newer gem in the Inner Richmond with both sit down food offerings and coffee! I only had a cup of black coffee here, but am excited to go back and try the food as well. Parking: Standard Inner Richmond Parking--metered spots. It is on the corner of a busy street (Geary) so I'd suggest parking on one of the side streets. Would be more difficult during the weekends but weekdays shouldn't be too difficult. (FYI they are closed on Sundays) Service: Very friendly and kind service! Ambiance: Wide open and clean with plenty of tables. This would be a great place to work from (though I'm not sure about wifi and outlets) Food/Drinks: I can only speak to the coffee and I will tell you it was delicious but also STRONG! I am an avid coffee drinker and this one cup left me with the shakes. That being said, I loved it and it was worth the temporary anxiety lol. I attached a pic of their breakfast menu--the offerings seem unique and delicious and seems to include some healthy options. Overall, I had a great experience so far and can't wait to return!

    The customer service was excellent, and the meat lover's breakfast burrito was exactly what I was craving. I will definitely go back.

    Being a native Bay Area person, I always heard about the burrito wars in San Francisco's Mission…read moreDistrict. Over the years I've found myself drawn to the other contender in the Mission way more than El Farolito, so I decided it was time to head back to try this legendary burrito shop. Getting to this location is super simple as we took BART and got off at the 24th Street Mission BART station and from there it's a very short walk of less than a block to get to El Farolito. Walking into the shop one is just slapped in the face with the beautiful smells of the carne asada cooking on the grill right by the door-it's wonderful. It's a modest place that you can definitely tell was built many years ago,so no overly modern amenities-this place cares about the food, not the ambiance. We ended up going with a couple of super burritos of Carne Asada ($11.25) & a regular burrito of Al Pastor($10.25) & also added two tacos one with Al Pastor and one with Carne Asada($4.75) They had beers at $4.75-so we grabbed a couple of Modelos. First the tacos-they were just ok,the tacos were crunchy and I don't know kind of gave Taco Bell vibes. Burritos though-that's a whole different animal. The burrito was so well made from the chew of the tortilla to the seasoning of the carne asada to the perfect balance and mix of all the other ingredients.I judge a burrito harshly if the mix isn't right and you don't get every ingredient in every bite and the mix at El Farolito was flawless. The price point was pretty impressive as well. In closing, El Farolito has always been in the mix as one of the top burrito spots in the Mission, and I can say with confidence that it's in my Top 2 in San Francisco currently. It's an incredible burrito and a true "must-visit" spot when visiting San Francisco. P.S. Just a slight heads up when visiting , it's not the safest neighborhood in the world, so just keep your head up when visiting-this is a place one visits for the food experience not the ambiance.

    The super burritos here were fantastic. We all ordered carne asada burritos, and even our kiddos…read morecompletely devoured them instantly. Even my picky eater, who wouldn't normally choose anything but meat and cheese, ate his as they come. The line here was long, but moved surprisingly fast, and our orders were still good and hot when we got back to our hotel. Street parking is a beast, just like anywhere else in this city. If I was looking to pack on several pounds, I'd eat here every day.
