Found this spot on TikTok and it looked Instagram worthy, so my cousin and I headed over on Saturday for a late lunch [def have to go back for brunch]. We decided to share a mimosa flight, spring rolls, and ahi scoops. Even though it wasn't brunch, they still allowed us to order a brunch flight, and they were so polite and helpful throughout 4.8/5. The inside is tiny, but quite stunning, clean, and gives a lot of opportunities for insta-worthy pics 4.9/5, I only wish there had been an actual photo wall. Now to the food. The crispy spring rolls were cooked perfectly, and seasoned well. The clear noodles and veggies were so yummy. I asked for soy sauce because that's what I prefer over sweet sauce, but honestly they needed nothing 4.8/5. The ahi scoops had the best seaweed salad on it that I have EVER had, the wasabi cream on top was the show stopper, and I don't even like wasabi 5/5. We shared the flight and was more than tipsy from two drinks each, flavors on point champagne delicious 5/5. Overall read more

Had Blackwood on my list for a while as I was looking for new brunch places to try. The premise of a thai fusion brunch intrigued me and I was hoping it was would surpass my expectations and previous experience with Peacock Pansy (similar brunch spot). The reservation system was a bit odd with no designated time slots, but rather you put in a time yourself online. The system turned out to not work very well as I originally booked a spot for 2 at 11am and then had to call to move it to 11:40am (weird time). Turns out when we got there, my name or a close spelling of it was on the list for 12:40pm. This wasn't a big deal to me since it's easy to mishear on the phone so we moved on from that. The restaurant was decently booked and we sat inside. Now for what my partner and I ordered! Unfortunately nothing called to me strongly so I went with the very basic choice of 2 eggs plate with ciabatta toast and rainbow potatoes. I added in chicken sausage for $3. 5/10: The toast was unbuttered and honestly tasted stale. The potatoes were nice and crispy, but unsalted and quite plain. The eggs were nice, I got mine scrambled. Sausages were okay, I think I actually ended up with the pork sausages rather than chicken. My plate was $26 and I can confidently say it is not worth close to that unfortunately. Brussel Florentine Benedict 6/10: My partner was intrigued by the ton yum hollandaise sauce. There was a hint of it which was nice. Benedicts were okay, nothing special. Coconut oat matcha 8/10: On the sweeter side, but enjoyable! I liked the toasted coconut pieces on top and thought it was a nice drink. Premium matcha wise, I don't agree necessarily, but hey it was an enjoyable drink. Drip coffee 0/10: My partner loves a drip coffee and not in a snobby way. From diner coffee to honestly plain old regular slightly brunt coffee, thats her jam. This coffee was just burnt. Not sure what happened but it was $5 for a completely bitter cup of burnt coffee. Not great. Fun side note: As we were ordering the table next to us called attention to their dish as their waffle was completely undercooked and tasted bitter. The wait staff was apologetic about it, but seemed to either not understand or insist it was "too sweet" not undercooked or bitter. The table was very polite about it so honestly it was not the best look for the restaurant. It was simply feedback and I don't believe it was taken very well. Regardless, just a fun note to throw in! We will not be back unfortunately. There are many lovely brunch spots and restaurants around the city and sadly I don't think this one is worth a try just because of the cost for the quality, but I always tell myself its always worth to try in case you do think differently! read more

Visit Date: July 25, 2026 The restaurant is much smaller than it appeared on social media. Despite having a reservation, they took awhile to seat us and when they did, they took forever to take our drink orders. I had to flag them down so we could order drinks. The waitress was dishonest and was going to charge us for 4 bottomless margaritas instead of 4 margaritas. The food was mediocre, unseasoned. The service was not good and we felt risked when closing the bill. They came to that table so many times to close the check, but didn't come at all when we wanted to order drinks. I'm never going back. read more

Finally made it over to Blackwood in the SF Marina! It's been on my bookmarks for years, but I rarely make it out this way because... let's be real... the parking is horrible. Since it's Gemini season, we came for brunch to celebrate a friend's birthday. Definitely make reservations, y'all! There was already a line when we arrived, so I'm glad I planned ahead. I ordered the Brekkie Tacos, while the table shared the soufflé eggs (one vegetarian and one with shrimp & beef), their famous Million Dollar Bacon, and a side of the Lemon Ricotta Pancakes. Everything was so good! I practically inhaled my food since I skipped breakfast and had only coffee beforehand. If you're in the Marina area, I definitely recommend checking this spot out. Great food, great vibes, and most importantly... everyone left happy especially the birthday girl! read more

The floral ambience makes this such a dreamy brunch spot. The food looks just as good as it tastes. I also enjoyed the Thai bites, which added something different to the menu. The drinks, though, were a bit mid. Overall, it's a spot I'd recommend for brunch, especially if you're looking for a beautiful setting and Instagram-worthy food. - Pomegranate Iced Tea - Spiced Almond Lavender - Coconut Matcha Latte - Crispy Spring Rolls - Pimped Up Ramyun - Angus Beef Noodle Soup - Chicken & Waffle read more

Unfortunately, we were a little disappointed with the food and experience. We were able to easily make a reservation through Yelp for Saturday brunch. The restaurant was full so it ended being a good idea. The restaurant has a bit of a fancy vibe with pendant lighting and flowers along the walls. We got the Moco Benedict and the Kai Gata w/ Rainbow Potatoes. The rainbow potatoes were crunchy and fluffy on the inside, but unfortunately, some of the pieces were super salty. The poached egg on the benedict was overcooked. Parking is tough to find on the street and expensive so overall, it doesn't seem worth it for us to come back just for this. read more

Literally everything I ordered was amazing! The spring rolls, beef wraps, and popcorn chicken were all so good. Then came the spicy prawns and vegetables served with perfectly steamed white rice--absolutely delicious. The Blue Wave rum cocktail, beautifully presented in a crystal fish glass, was perfection. The service was on point: friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. The restaurant itself is beautifully decorated and creates such a great atmosphere. This place is an absolute must-visit! read more

Lovely little spot right on Chestnut with indoor and outdoor seating. The menu is exquisite with its Thai fusion options and everything we ordered was delicious! I fear I did not get any photos of the food because we devoured it too quickly. We ordered the Moco Benedict, Tom Yum Shakshuka, Pad See Ew, BW scramble, and Souflegg. Portions are generous, food is colorful & flavorful. Service was great and their cocktails were also a delight. Great spot! read more

I came back for brunch with a larger group of friends and tried the Marina jook which was great as I needed something warm and comforting. The texture of the congee was luscious with a good amount of sesame oil and chili oil for fragrance. The bacon added a nice crunch and flavor as well. It's definitely a hearty dish and I took half of it home for later but really hit the spot. Our server was great taking different modifications and everything turned out pretty good. I tried a bit of the stone bowl rice and souffle omelet and both were yummy. Overall solid spot for brunch in the Marina but of course with Marina prices. read more

We love coming to Blackwood for Breakfast, lunch, and dinner!! We are pretty picky about our Thai food and Blackwood is authentic as it gets. They have great Tom yum soup that has incredible flavors full of lemongrass, lime, and spice that warms you up on a cold Marina day/night! Pad Thai is always a hit and can be made with your choice or protein or veggies! Flavor of this tangy and sweet noodle dish always hits the spot for us! And come for their breakfast as it is always busy because they have such yummy options for breakfast including millionaires bacon! 5 stars read more

Solid food and drinks! The pad Thai was flavorful and i appreciated the amount of chicken, tofu and eggs. We also had the pad see you which was delightful! They didn't skimp on the meat for either dish. I will mention that the male staff who sat us wasn't very friendly and a bit standoff-ish. Other than that, i really enjoyed sitting outside, having a drink and a bite to eat while people watching. read more

We tried the Panang curry with pork, the popcorn chicken, the marina strips, and the 24 hour beef noodle soup. Popcorn chicken: I honestly felt like we could have went without this. It wasn't awful, but the chicken was a little bit dry and I felt like it was mostly breading. Marina Strips: I thought the marina ships were not bad. The beef was very tender, but the flavors were a little too strong. They use Sriracha as one of the main sauces, and it was a bit much for me. Panang Curry: I've got the Panang curry was really good. I opted with pork and everything was cooked perfectly and the flavor was fantastic. It was really good to eat with rice. 24 hour beef noodle soup: I tried a little bit of the 24 hour beef noodle soup. The soup base was very flavorful and the beef was very tender. No complaints. I came for dinner on a Saturday night around 7 PM and didn't have to wait at all. The restaurant itself is very beautiful and decorated with flowers on the walls. The staff were really nice. I would love to come back here for brunch, which is what they are known for. read more

This was such a cute hidden spot in San Fransico that I visited during my girls trip. The flavoring on the chicken and waffles was delicious! The chicken was cooked with a really good crisp.

I picked my dad up from SFO around 10am and he was craving breakfast, so I took it as the perfect opportunity to finally try Blackwood Kitchen--especially since I'd heard such great things and wanted him to enjoy a really good meal. When we walked in, the ambiance immediately stood out. The decor was gorgeous: hanging colorful florals, pink roses styled like pillars, and a beautiful mix of gold and brown tones throughout. It felt elegant, warm, and very inviting--definitely a place that makes you pause and take it all in. It was a weekday morning right before New Year's Eve, so the restaurant was empty when we arrived, which made sense with people likely out of town or at work. Once we sat down, I noticed a standing heater across from us--and quickly understood why. The space was quite cold. Our server mentioned it takes time for the heat to kick in during the mornings, so my dad and I kept our coats on while reviewing the menu. To warm us up, we ordered the Apple Pear Toddy (non-alcoholic) and it was nothing short of amazing--10/10. The burst of pear and apple flavors was perfectly balanced, comforting, and exactly what we needed to shake off the chill. It genuinely warmed us up and set the tone for the rest of the meal. To start, my dad ordered the Marina Beef Strips appetizer and really enjoyed it--9/10. The cucumber paired with the spicy beetroot sauce was flavorful with just the right kick. He's not usually a fan of spicy food, but this dish hit the mark for him. For my entrée, I ordered the chicken and waffles (8/10). The chicken was cooked perfectly and I loved the fresh berries, but the waffle leaned a bit too sweet for my taste. With the candied walnuts, syrup wasn't necessary for me. My dad also ordered the Oscar Benedict, and before even digging in, he appreciated the spinach, pimento, and capers on the side. Once everything came together--the fresh crab meat, hollandaise, and parmesan--he gave it a solid 10/10. Every bite worked beautifully. As we continued eating, more guests started to arrive, and I realized we had come in right at opening. The service was excellent--10/10. Our server checked on us multiple times, answered questions, and even complimented our menu choices, which added a nice touch and made the experience feel more engaging. Overall, this is a great spot for breakfast or brunch. The ambiance and decor alone are a 12/10, and the service was attentive and welcoming. I'd love to come back during a busier rush to see how they handle pressure, but based on this visit, they made a strong impression. One suggestion: warming the restaurant before opening--especially during the winter and rainy season--would greatly improve the guest experience. Other than that, Blackwood Kitchen is definitely worth a visit. read more

Came here with a group of friends for a New Year's Eve dinner! The service was great, as the servers were attentive and checked up on us fairly often. The restaurant closes at 9:30pm, and they were kind enough to let us stay until then! I also enjoyed the ambiance - the interior was quite beautiful, and had many floral decorations, which I enjoyed. For food, I got the hot stone pot, which comes with minced pork and prawns. The dish was not only delicious but also was a large portion size. The rice was crispy on the bottom, and it was nice that the server mixed the dish for me on the table. I would definitely come back to try other dishes! One of my friends got the Pad Kee Mow, and she also very much enjoyed her dish, agreeing that it was delicious and that the noodles were perfectly chewy! I got the French 75 as a drink, and it was very good as well! Overall, I would definitely come back, especially to try the brunch, which I've heard many good things about! Truly a 10/10 experience! read more

Cutesy Thai restaurant off busy Chestnut Street in the Marina. Came here during happy hour when drinks are half off and the appetizers are $4 off. I would describe the ambiance as "modern cherry blossom" with it's tall ceilings and pop music to boot. I had the popcorn chicken appetizer - very crispy and tasty with the five spice outer coating. Next came the egg rolls, about four rolls cut in half with accompanying Thai sweet chili sauce. I split the pad see ew with tofu. It would have been nice to have had a few more vegetables thrown in, especially the broccoli as I counted just a couple of pieces. I did like the tofu although I felt there could have been more and a bit more tender. They could totally redo the front patio dining area as I think it would draw more customers in. If it had not been for my friend recommending this spot, I would have walked by. Overall the customer service was good and I would come back to try other dishes - I'd say the popcorn chicken was my favorite. read more

We had a post Fathers day celebration and made reservations last weekend. We were able to get a table for 4 at an early slot on Saturday, It was a perfect day for a Brunch on a non Chilly weekend morning. The Servers were super friendly and helpful. We had ordered a Matcha Oatmilk drink and a Bloody Mary to start off with. We had ordered a Skillet with Egg and Bacon and the Moco Benedict and a Bacon Cheese Grilled sandwich. Wifey had ordered the Kai Gata with Fingerling potatoes. All the food was good, but the Grilled cheese wasn't exactly melted G Cheese. The Bloody Mary had a kick and our neighboring diners next to us concurred about the spiciness of the drink. The Wagyu was really good and the Benedict spin was a great curve ball to the traditional dish. The place was super slow and a nice place to relax and catch up with the Family. read more

Walked in Saturday for brunch around 11:30. The place was pretty packed with people but we were able to grab seats indoor with no wait. They have bottomless mimosas for $26pp. You can choose from orange and raspberry but we asked for a mixture. Everything we ordered was pretty great and the service was quick even though they were busy. I really enjoyed the soufflé eggs, the marina jok moo and the beef noodle soup. I'd say a solid 4/5. There are seats outside and inside and they are dog friendly! The place is cute and I'd recommend coming here for brunch with friends. read more

Came by on a Wednesday for a late brunch. thinterior is beautiful with high ceilings and charming décor, and the staff were friendly and welcoming. I was really looking forward to trying their mango salad but was a bit disappointed to learn it's only available at dinner (and it was just 12 p.m.!). I ordered the Thai fried rice with chicken delicious, though a bit heavy on the onions. The chicken and waffles looked great but didn't quite deliver on flavor. The French toast, however, was amazing! As for the millionaire's bacon, I could've skipped that one. read more

I was so excited to try this place. My husband brought back a to go order of a French toast combo. And it would have been good, except they used old/bad bananas. They should have said they didn't have them --- it's extra for the banana and walnut addition and these bananas are gross (see pictures). I had to scrape them off the French toast. I looked at other pictures of the French toast with bananas and this is definitely not their standard, so I'm confused as why they would allow this to go out. What a disappointment. The eggs and bacon were good. read more

Delicious Thai spot! We got their tom yum noodle soup and the green curry. Loved the Thai tea cocktail too!

Green curry is always solid, and this place is no exception. I loved the sliced eggplant on the top, it was perfectly golden brown and cooked so nicely. Service is impeccable, our waiter checked in multiple times and even asked if the spice levels we picked were good. It's a cute spot for a date, family dinner, or catchup with friends. read more
