Tomato and onion bisque (soup of the day)
Eileen C.

The Yelp description got it pretty spot on! It's a cozy spot to eat a hearty salad, sandwich, or both! I got the Niçoise salad which I've never had before and it was quite yummy with the smoked salmon, hard boiled egg, green beans, and dill. My friend got the chicken orzo salad with a half sandwich and the portions were so large it looked like she got a full salad and full sandwich! The owner is so nice as well--I definitely recommend stopping here for a filling, yummy, and healthy lunch!

Very small, cute. Like the outdoor seating (which is very minimal btw) The server cashier guy is really really nice!! My bf said the roasted chicken sandwich was "pretty gas". This is crazy because he inhaled it like a wild bear was running down 3rd street to come snatch it out of his hands. Safe to say he loved it. The Caprese Tartine was DELICIOUS although a little hard to eat but I think that's a skill issue on my part . Wonderful food and atmosphere. Would def recommend giving this place a try!!

Food here is always plentiful and good. It's a small venue but there's a few tables inside and out. Cute place and owner is super friendly. Happy to support them and keep the business going as it's the best place close to my work! A little expensive but you get a lot!

Omelette de Paris

such a cute cafe perfect for a rainy day! I live nearby so I come here often! the food here is amazing and always hits the spot. Michael is very nice & helpful.

Omelette de Paris

I was really perplexed when I received the food. I didn't say "to go," and I mentioned that I would be eating here, but they served the food in disposable containers. I asked the manager again if they might have misunderstood "to go" and given me the food in disposable containers by mistake, but he said that this is how it is done in this country. This country's way? I've been to San Francisco many times and visited other restaurants, but this has never happened before. I can only think it's racist. very disappointed with the service and pretty shocked about the way they treat customers.

Cheddar, Apple and Pastrami Sandwich

If you need a swift spot for lunch in the area, Cafe du Soleil handily handles the major categories: soup, sandwich, and salad. There may be a line out to door when you arrive (assuming we're in non-pandemic times), but the friendly folks behind the counter keep it moving. Your best bets are to stick with simple options like the Turkey & Avocado or Ham & Gruyere sandwiches, or the Caesar or Chicken & Orzo salads (petit is actually a nice size). I think the Chicken Basil Bisque was the only soup they had on, but you can't go wrong there either. I love that you can get a (choose 2) half sandwich/half salad/cup of soup combo too, because tasting more stuff from a place that offers high quality, fresh food is always a win. I personally wasn't enamored with the croissants they've got, but maybe I'm a croissant snob, I dunno.

A bite of Paris in the heart of Downtown SF. Breads are fresh, meats are plenty, and the love in the preparation of the food is felt at each table. The menu was as joy to browse over to see what I will come back to get next. Thank you Chef Michael for the wonderful meal!

This is a really wonderful sandwich spot that I have come to love for their kind accommodation to…read morecustomization- be it adding weird, hot stuff (the Tajin spice and ghost pepper sauce really add to the sandwich)- or holding the typical stuff (I'm allergic to onions and really hate most lettuce). The sandwiches are creative and well balanced. There is always a harmonious balance of ingredients. The Ms. Spicy is wonderful, as the Tajin spice is unique and adds to the flavor. Alma's Hot and Spicy was also a winner, as was the Giants. Kudos for having simple sandwiches with the option to make as weird and customizable as is reasonable! I have only ever gotten delivery because it is far away, but I am very happy with the accuracy of the orders and artistry in each sandwich. Thank you!

Friendly staff and highly recommend to order online as it can get busy on a weekend afternoon. Pictured: the Masonic -- a grilled chicken breast sandwich with their signature house garlicky mayo and the usual sandwich toppings. There are many ways to customize as you please. The sandwich was extremely fresh and flavorful but the star was the Dutch crunch bread. Definitely one of the best I've tried and just elevated the sandwich as a whole. 10/10 might have to grab two next time I'm in the city!

The Boys' Deli is a small market stocked with snacks and grab-and-go treats, but the real highlight…read moreis the sandwich counter in the back. Service was efficient and friendly, and the ordering process is straightforward. You choose a base sandwich, pick your bread, and customize it with their selection of veggies. We got the Sanfranpsycho with all the veggies and it was phenomenal. Highly recommend the Dutch crunch bread. Everything tasted incredibly fresh and well put together, exactly what I look for in a great sandwich.

You start in the back toward the center to place your order, then move to line up on the left side to pick it up and add toppings to hot sandwiches. After that, you bring everything to the front to pay. Quite few people, us included, were a little unsure where to go next. The sandwiches made up for it. I got the tri tip special with garlic butter and swapped the Swiss for pepperjack. The meat was sliced thin and really tender, and the garlic butter a perfect addition. I'm not usually big on sauces, but they have a good variety of house options if that's your thing. We'll definitely be back. I was also happy to see they have another location in San Bruno.

I got the breakfast sandwich which was delicious, and my friend ordered the turkey sandwich which they also loved. One thing to note is that they don't allow substitutions or modifications, so just be aware of that going in. It's more of a deli/grocery-style spot, so there isn't much seating, just a few tables and chairs outside. But it's super close to Dolores Park, so we usually just grab our sandwiches and head there to eat. The chocolate chip cookie was also a standout. It's more of a brown butter, dark chocolate situation, rich but really well balanced, and the perfect sweet treat after the sandwich. Since we came right before closing, they even gave us the last cookie for free, which was such a nice surprise!! The staff was friendly and made great conversation. Would definitely go back.

Dolores Deluxe has some interesting sandwiches here including sandwiches with pork shoulder, pulled…read moreBBQ chicken, carmelized eggplants, etc. What makes this place further unique is some of the bread options. For example, some sandwiches are served on a crunchy focaccia bread. My only critique is that the sandwiches are kind of small for the price you pay and the meat portions are small.
