Aracely is a solid spot with both indoor and outdoor seating, which I really appreciate--especially when the weather cooperates. The food options are pretty good, and I like that the menu changes from time to time. That said, the experience can be a bit hit or miss. Both the service and the food quality/taste can vary depending on the day. With the colder months rolling in, I also wish they had more fire pits available outdoors to keep things cozy. Overall, still a nice place to grab a bite, but a few tweaks could make it even better. read more

Wowww! Love this little gem on Treasure Island. We just walked in. I took my son, brother and his wife from San Diego visiting SF there. It's such a cute restaurant, and the service was "up top" with our server Phil ! Our meal of two delicious Cioppino, a delicious hamburger my brother had with truffle fries (he won't stop mentioning how tasty it was), and an order of something my son had and finished his whole plate! Will definitely stop in again for munchies when on the isle. Oh, you can't beat the picturesque backdrop too, of SF skyline when touring the island. Thank me later :) read more

Really cool spot on Treasure Island with a lot of potential, but roughness around the edges makes it hard to imagine it being a destination (which unless you live on TI it would need to be). Had a delicious ceviche with crispy, salty chips and an excellent side order of crispy bacon. My mom had the brunch plate which was basic, but included a few different kinds of potatoes. Coffee was nice. There's a nice outside patio with umbrellas for shade and the inside looked cool (albeit stuffy on a warm day). Biggest issue was the service.... we were seated at a table outside (nice), but then basically left alone for 15-20 minutes... dude came up eventually and said "you decide?"... not "I'm your server", "these are our specials" (there were some) or anything resembling something beyond basic functional order taking. Nobody checked on drink refills, nobody sold the desserts, just a bunch of harried and officious staff running around. Anyway, it could have been a super nice experience with just a few extra touches. read more

Tuve mala experiencia por que quería llevar a un lugar bonito y comida rica y cuando hice la reservación no mencionaron que iba a haber una pre fix menu y la verdad para el menú que dieron para un día muy importante este o pésimo y si querías ordenar otras cosas del menú eran extra se me hizo una exageración $75 dólares la comida expuesta al aire libre tenía otra idea para mi esposa no un desayuno continental read more

Was here for a great friend wedding dinner party. The staff was great. The appetizers were delicious along with the main courses. Won't get into specifics and the alcoholic drinks were flowing well. Coffee also made an appearance. The evening was cold and during the large dinner the made it comfortable. It was patios dining. Unique in its own way school/church serving food and drinks..What a lovely place on Treasure Island. read more

Aracely Cafe - Lovely place with large outdoor the main entrance seating - New American Near Me - San Francisco, California

I like the ambiance with the fireplace with two sofas by it, booths along windows that look out into greenery, an outdoor patio with ample seating. The menu has a lot of unique options, some great veggie options, a decent brunch menu which is what I enjoyed. The prices are a bit high; $35 total not including tip for avocado toast with salmon on it and an oat milk latte. Service was attentive and friendly; latte came quickly but the kitchen is a tad slow... noted by other diners who were in a hurry. It wasn't too slow for me. It's a relaxed vibe; sit and enjoy. read more

Looks nice, but poorly run behind the scenes Looks beautiful, but the communication and coordination issues made the entire experience unnecessarily stressful. We had our wedding here in Feb 2026. I had seen prior reviews mentioning communication issues and assumed it wouldn't be that bad -- that was a mistake. Communication was difficult from the start. There was no clear point of contact, no reliable phone number, and email replies could take up to a week. Linda was our main contact, but she was frequently unavailable and difficult to reach. It was also unclear how the internal team was structured or who was actually responsible for our event. The lack of responsiveness became especially concerning leading up to the wedding. Rain was forecast that week, and we reached out multiple times to ask about a backup plan, but did not receive a response. In the end, our own coordinator had to step in and prepare for it independently. There were several similar situations throughout the process. On the wedding day, the lack of coordination was obvious. We had confirmed children's meals in advance, but none were prepared. The kitchen staff told us they were never informed. The meals were eventually made, but served long after everyone else. We also used the venue's recommended DJ (DJ Exoh, ~$1500). I provided a detailed playlist and a script for key moments, but none of it was used -- it appeared he hadn't reviewed any of the materials. Setup was delayed, the timeline slipped, and the overall execution felt unstructured. If we didn't have our own coordinator stepping in, the situation would have been much worse. Proceed with caution, especially regarding communication and vendor recommendations. read more

The only reason I'm giving this a 2 star review it's because they took out the happy hour. We went last week, October 31, 2025 and they told us they no longer had happy hour so we ended up going to the gold bar. Aracely was or go to right after work since we work on the island it was a time to vent have garlic fries or truffle fries, and house margaritas for a good price. We were so sad to find out they no longer offer happy hour. Their drinks are pretty good. The staff is so pleasant and kind, but my star is based off them taking out the happy hour. read more

A great place to host your wedding. Easy to work with event team. A nice setting on Treasure Island. Indoor spaces, outdoor garden space lends itself to a large capacity attendees where you can hold a reception. Food service...or you can bring in food trucks (area accessible). My daughter and new son in law held a wedding reception here and all went smoothly. Staff was wonderful! The wedding coordinator was helpful and right on very detail. We could not have been happier. Thanks Aracely!!! read more

Randomly found this place while exploring treasure island with the family. So glad we found this hidden gem!!! Service was 10/10. The ambiance 10/10. Food 10/10!!!! usually our family doesn't order desert at the restaurant but here we had to try appetizers and desserts in addition to the main dish. So glad we did because everything was truly delicious. We will definitely be back! And our server, Aga was amazing. She had the best energy and was so welcoming. read more

Came in for coffee. Coffee tasted good but the cup was tiny and the cost was not. Kind of wish they'd had non-fat milk. Service was fast and friendly. The dining room is small and comfortable. Very well appointed. Convenient parking. read more

Made a reservation on Resy for 2:15. When we arrived, the host reminded us that they closed at 3. Overall, we felt rushed. The outside patio is always nice. It's very sunny with wall succulents, but at this time was empty of customers. Having been here before, I was looking forward to my go to order: the prosciutto crepe. They changed it from two smaller crepes to one large one. I don't know if it was because they were closing soon but the dish overall was oily and not thought out. read more

Came to visit my friend since she recently moved to Treasure Island and she told me this is the ONLY brunch place on the island?? Nonetheless, this place does not disappoint. From the cafe layout, aesthetics, to the food, everything was great! The ambience: It's giving Saturday brunch on a warm sunny day with the girlies. If you want to sit indoors, you can sit on a comfy soft couch or wooden bench. There is also a cozy fireplace inside the cafe! If you choose to sit outdoors, there is a patio with a few tables outside but only a few underneath an umbrella so be mindful of this on sunny days! We decided to sit around a firepit on an outdoor sofa. The sofa was comfy but the firepit combined with the sun = free hot sauna haha.. 9/10 The food: We ordered the Croissant French Toast to share and my friend ordered the Olive Oil Waffles with a side of chicken (essentially chicken and waffles). I honestly don't remember the name of the item I ordered and also couldn't find it when I looked at the menu.. Oopsie! But I believe it's their omelet. Nonetheless, the food was great! The omelet dish I ordered was a bit too watery for my liking but the Croissant French Toast was delish! The dulce de leche cream cheese was particularly delectable! 8/10 There is also tons of parking around the area and the waitress was super attentive! 10/10 for service. read more

We came here after TreasureFest & wasn't all that impressed. One of the members in our party ordered a burger with no aioli & a side salad, & received a burger with fries. When asked to send it back, the waitress seemed like we had changed our order... We had to ask for water, & we asked for an additional bottle, it was never brought to our table. They were out of the 3 beers we requested, limiting the menu. Waiting for a glass of wine took over 20 minutes. Mind you, it wasn't that busy. The asparagus salads we got were very tasty, & the tri tip sandwich was "okay". Don't think we will be coming back. read more

I had my wedding at Aracely Cafe. The food was great but the music stopped working in the middle of the reception. When I asked the employees to help out, they said "I do not feel sorry about this." I have never experienced such rude service in my life. If you have a wedding here, I recommend you bring your own bluetooth speakers for music. read more

I really wanted to like Aracely Cafe based on what I've read and seen on Yelp and Zolo, but my fiancée and I were disappointed during our recent dinner. We weren't greeted upon entry, had a wobbly table no one bothered to fix, received a rare steak when we had ordered it medium-rare, and didn't initially get the chimichurri that was supposed to come with the steak. The food itself was good but nothing stood out, especially for the price. We got the truffled garlic fries ($12), the pork belly lettuce cups ($12), the pan-seared ocean trout ($32), and the grilled tri tip ($44). -- Food ratings: Truffled garlic fries (2/5) - lacking garlic flavor, almost tasted like regular fries. I also think that ketchup is a "safe" condiment pairing and it would be better off with some kind of aioli. The price also wasn't listed on the menu for some reason. Pork belly lettuce cups (4/5) - pork belly was tender & flavorful, and the apple/mint slaw helped balance the fattiness of the meat. Pan-seared ocean trout (4/5) - perfectly pan seared and was complimented nicely by the lemon sauce and the salad it was served with. Grilled tri tip (3/5) - after having it cooked to medium-rare, the tri tip itself didn't have much flavor and relied to heavily on the pan sauce for seasoning, so it tasted unbalanced. The chimichurri is what really helped the tri tip shine, but $44 is a little bit steep -- maybe if it were a ribeye the pricing would make more sense. This plate also came with french fries that wasn't listed on the menu. -- The ambiance of the outdoor seating is cozy and I can see how they can accommodate for weddings. However, during our dinner, there were a lot of little "misses" that took away from the overall experience. Maybe we will try again for brunch since the food really does look good. read more

Aracely is a wonderful local place on Treasure Island to sit with friends and have a great meal.

Ordered the olives, Brussels sprouts and chanterelle mushroom bowl. Highlight was the Brussels sprouts ! Portion size was great for all. Staff friendly too. If you came late at night, don't be dissuaded by the long road, many turns into what feels like a dead body drop off point. The place is very cute and decorated really well. Great for a date night pre- whiskey bar read more

Really nice cozy cafe, plenty of parking around, playground next to it, friendly staff. I was told they are pretty good with food. However the food we got weren't great. The guests asked for medium rare burger meat but it came well done. Sweet potatoes fries didn't come as on menu, no Parmesan or parsley and it came with ketchup (usually it is with ranch or blue cheese). When asked about it then it was brought back heavily garnished with garlic paste and 2 pieces of Parmesan. The 42 $ dish hibachi steak came over cooked, dry with mash potatoes and lots of fried onions. I don't know what happened, maybe they had a different cook as usual? Not my favourite read more

Stopped there for a morning beverage and pastries with family as a little Memorial Day weekend adventure to treasure island. Nice ambience with electric fireplace and comfy couch ans overall cozy decor. Service was reasonable given barista was by herself. Drinks and pasties were not worth it though, I got a chai which unbeknownst to me prior to ordering ended up being a regular Bigelow tea bag which barely tasted like chai which was not even as flavorful as the chai that I get Trader Joe's. Got the gluten free almond cake which also did not have much almond flavor. Along with husband's coffee, daughter's hot chocolate, and a small thin chocolate chip cookie the total was just over $30. Though we are used to SF prices, at least the drinks and pastries usually justify the prices whereas it was not the case here. read more

Came here on the weekend for lunch as we were already in the area for an event nearby. There was plenty of parking outside. The outdoor / garden dining area had plenty of seating and even a fire pit. The courtyard area was being decorated for a wedding later that night. We opted to eat inside. Inside was comfortable and trendy. It had both rustic and contemporary design elements. I got a whole grain bowl and a cappuccino with almond milk. Both were excellent. I felt the whole grain bowl was unique with the pea tendrils and fava bean sauce. Portions exceeded my expectations for this type of restaurant. Would definitely order both again. The only slight downside of our experience was that service was very slow. Overall, great hidden gem and worth checking out if you are on Treasure Island! read more

Solid food and service. Come for the vibes though on a nice day bc most of their seating is outdoors. Their indoor seating is nice too. Sorry no pics though read more

Definitely the food/cafe gem on Treasure Island. It's quite cute and comfortable place with both indoor and patio seating. BOUILLABAISSE with sea bass, shrimp, clams, mussels $21 So glad I got this. This dish was so comforting with so many poppin seafood! Wish they had side bread to balance the tomato base. BURGER grass-fed beef, cheddar, caramelized onions $16 Big hearty burger. The cheese and onions really elevated this burger! Not my dish but bites of it satisfied the "I need bread with my stew" feeling haha. LATTE - solid, I don't think there's other places in this island haha After our lunch, we walked to the waterfront. It's also connected to a church where they were having an event. Double blessings! read more

A really good 4 stars. Despite it being in the middle of a residential area with no other retail areas nearby, the vibes are great. Very clean, modern, and cozy indoor area with about 5 tables. As for the outdoor area, there is a beautiful gravel courtyard with market lights, a trailer, fire pits, and about 15 tables/benches. It feels a bit like Napa or something like that. As for the food, it was very good. The croissant french toast was incredible. Really unique, citrusy flavor and not too sweet. The fried chicken and waffles were also very yummy and high quality but a bit overpriced. I loved the salsa verde on the chicken but the additional chipotle sauce was a bit of a weird/overwhelming flavor mix. I would have liked a classic gravy or something more neutral to accompany the distinctive salsa verde. The lattes are good but nothing too special. The service was ok. Very slow and not particularly friendly or timely, but not bad in any way. Overall, a positive experience. I'd recommend for sure if you're already in treasure island but I wouldn't go out of my way to come to the island for this restaurant. read more

We were the first table of the day and they were "out of" oysters? Plus most of the website menu entrees (which we came to try) were not on the menu we were given. I suggest they note on website that menu items may not be available. Very disappointing. read more

Aracely opens for Brunch bright and early at 8am, so it is a great place to hit after a morning bike ride across the bridge. The dishes are well priced as you can get a nice meal for under $20. The scones was unique and I would come back to get another. The burger was decent. It was your comfort burger which is always a great move when you are starving. I would come back here each time I'm in Treasure Island as they play great music and the restaurant has a great vibe. read more

Really great dining experience on Treasure Island! Aracely cafe was a recommendation from a local and it did not disappoint! The venue is super cute and intimate with a beautiful bar and fireplace. Our waitress recommended the avocado toast and it was super tasty and well balanced with a little bit of heat and acidity. My friend really enjoyed the chilaquiles and the meat I tried was super tender and succulent. I enjoyed the lamb stew, which was packed with tender and flavorful lamb pieces alongside vegetables and served with toasted bread. All in all a great meal. read more

Imagine its your wedding and youre trying to have a very simple reception... 1) you arrived there and theres no table linen and napkins thats part of the package that you ordered. 2) They served the food and the main dish is completely different from what was ordered in the package (our wild guess was that its part of a dish from another bigger party trying to cut labor so they served as what was served to them (we nice enough to let this go). 3) we asked for refund for the linen and napkins since they did not fulfill it and manager farhad told the couple that he got to get it touch with the owner and wont be able to refund the same day, 3 days passed and wife have to follow up with photo for them to reply back... in short stay away for doing your events in this place...

Great new place we tried tucked away on Treasure Island. Cute and trendy decor. Seating inside and outside with private space for party's. They were having a wedding on the day we visited. Great place for bridal or baby shower as well. Service was good. I gave the place only 4 stars because we had to ask for things like water a couple of times. Food was great. Creative and tasty. Here's what we ordered: - sautéed octopus - VERY tender and great smoky flavor - Braised Beef Short ribs - very tender and flavorful served with creamy mash potatoes. One of the special of the day. - Croissant French Toast - a nice twist on traditional French toast - halibut sandwich with fries - flavorful and meaty fish fillet. - Brussels sprout nice and caramelized with good flavor. - pumpkin Mac n cheese. Good pasta texture but couldn't really taste the pumpkin. read more
