    Wonderful food + drink (pistachio macchiato, croissant, sausage egg and cheese bagel), atmosphere (relaxing Italian cafe), and service (offered to wash our baby's tray for us!). Thank you!

    Allan Y.

    Was in North Beach walking around and found this little cafe on the corner and decided to get a cup of joe!!! When I walked in was greeted by a gentleman behind the counter, not sure he's the owner of not, he was pleasant. They were a little busy and the cafe was 75% full. I got a vanilla latte, which tasted great, not too sweet. Perfectly made. They have a few options on breakfast pastries and bagels sandwiches. Almost everyone in there had a bagel sandwich, must be good. I will have to try when I'm in the area next time. There are some historic photos on the wall, I thought that's pretty cool.

    Lattes, cannoli
    Charlotte C.

    Everything from the friendly people to the yummy food makes this place a "this is our spot" kind of cafe. We tried the lattes, cappuccinos, fresh egg sandwiches, macaron, and cannoli. 10/10 no notes on all. Really appreciated that the owner remembered us and was so friendly.

    I was looking for a coffee place close to the restaurant I was to have dinner at. I found the business on Yelp and decided to grab a caramel macchiato (hot) and a cold brew while we waited for our dinner reservation. The drink was exactly what I needed, a quick pick me up, the balance between coffee and milk was perfect. The cold brew was just as you'd expect as well, very smooth and no harsh bitter aftertaste. The exterior has a red banner so it's easy to spot several blocks away. It's right across the street from the laundromat. The patrons were either students, or people waiting for their laundry. The cafe inside is quite small but ample seating inside and outside. Overall great spot for coffee!

    Turkey and Avocado BLT Sandwich
    Courtney L.

    This little spot is deceiving.. doesn't look like much from the outside, but this was one of the best sandwiches I've had in years (no exaggeration). I ordered the turkey avo BLT but with no bacon (don't judge), and an Americano that tasted great. Staff was so kind, and while the food and coffee took a while, it was definitely worth it. I ended up working here for a couple hours and because it's a smaller spot, noise level was fine and everyone was respectful of those working. Great wifi too!! Highly recommend!!

    Small cozy cafe tucked away in North Beach, not on a busy street. Came here to work a bit and the ambiance was good for working -- not too loud, not crowded on a Friday afternoon, lots of seating both inside and outside, and they have a clean restroom. Not sure if there is free wifi (I didn't ask). Got a chocolate babka to snack on and it was very good! A little pricey (just under $7) but filling and delicious. Lots of drinks on the menu and pastries too. Their sandwich options looked really good as well! Owners were friendly.

    Egg, cheese, avacado and tomato bagel
    Rachael E.

    The bagel was good, the rest of it was bland. We took it to go to eat by the water and regretted that immediately when I realized there was no seasoning on the eggs. The eggs were also dry and it needed a sauce. Very dissapointed and the prices were very high for what you get.

    Turkey and Avocado BLT Sandwich, Iced Matcha Latte, Pistachio Macchiato

    We recommend the turkey and avocado blt sandwich, it tastes amazing and filling. The owner is very friendly and kind. The aesthetic of the shop is really nice and inviting. We also ordered an iced matcha with vanilla and caramel and it was delicious. Best matcha I've ever had. Definitely recommend eating here over any other cafe in the city. Amazing experience.

    Delicious cafe au lait

    Went in here because we saw it while driving by, the man at the counter was super quick and helpful!! Got a cafe au lait, hot chocolate, a butter croissant, and a chocolate hazelnut croissant. The croissants were delicious and we loved our drinks!! It was nice and cozy inside and had all the relaxing ambiance you'd hope to get for a cafe. The patio tables outside had a nice breeze as well.

    Greek Salad
    Sona T.

    Great spot--it's our go-to weekend place. The sandwiches are tasty, and the salads are fresh with perfect portions. The place has a nice European vibe, and the owner is super kind and helpful.

    Stepping into this Italian-style coffeehouse feels like entering a cozy little corner of Italy--minus the passport stamp. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, with soft, quiet music playing in the background that sets a peaceful tone from the moment you walk in. The drink selection is authentically Italian, featuring bold espressos and silky cappuccinos that are clearly made with care and tradition in mind. There's a charming bakery section off to the side, where golden cannolis and other classic baked treats tempt you with their sweet aromas and flaky perfection. The staff add to the magic--friendly, personable, and genuinely happy to chat or help you discover your new favorite blend. Whether you're curling up with a book, meeting a friend, or just grabbing a pick-me-up, the experience here leaves you feeling refreshed and subtly delighted--like you've just uncovered a local secret worth savoring. Want to name this place or turn the review into something more stylized, like part of a travel journal or foodie guide? I'm brewing up ideas if you are.

    Avocado toast!
    Stephanie H.

    A sweet little gem of a cafe was exactly what we needed after walking through a sea of chains for breakfast. Located on a corner in a quiet neighborhood, it gave "locals love this place" vibes that made me want to stay awhile. Alas I had 2 loud teens with me that would have disrupted the quiet morning crowd so we got our breakfast to go(this had been the plan anyways). Our group ordered 2 bacon egg and cheese bagels(needed cream cheese but that's the consumers fault for not reading the menu carefully, otherwise each element was yummy, especially the bagel) and 2 avocado toasts( delicious, even had a drizzle of olive oil, tasted like mine at home, and that's hard to beat). We waited for our food on the bistro tables outside and people watched, it was a lovely early morning experience for all.

    Best breakfast sandwich in SF - lived here for 3 years and have been looking for a great spot for years. Freshly cracked eggs, delicious bagel, bacon is perfectly crispy. Will be back many times

    Excellent service! My only advice is to come and see for yourself. When we called to ask about a…read morewait, they mentioned there was not wait... part of the reason they do that is because they don't keep a list. You either have reservations or you're a walk in and you stand in line until a table is available for you. At first this was strange, but I think it makes for a better experience. The team was incredible, they were so kind on a day that can be stressful for a small restaurant. We had incredible food. I was so happy to get my Eggs Royale and my husband said the French toast was the best he's ever had. (Even comparing it to French toast in Paris) No notes. This will be our Mother's Day place going forward next time with reservations.

It seems like this place is an asian fusion brunch place incorporating french dishes into thai/asian themed dishes which is up our alley. We made a reservation at 1:45 PM and we had to wait for about an extra 30 minutes before getting seated. Initially, I wanted to try their crab fried rice but unfortunately they were out of crab. We decided to get the Alcatraz Escape and the Brioche french toast which were recommended by the wait staff. The staff was generally friendly and accommodating but I can tell they were swamped and stressed out with all the people they were trying to serve. The food itself tasted decent, the Alcatraz Escape had a tasty flavor which incorporates tom yum paste (sweet, sour, tangy flavor) into their scramble with about 4 shrimps. The side of crispy chicken was good but nothing that stood out to us. The brioche was soft but there wasn't much flavoring besides the fruits and caramelized banana. It was served with evaporated milk which made the brioche soft but not adding much flavor to it. The price however was quite pricey. For two dishes as a side we paid around $78 with tax and tip.

My husband and I's favorite place to eat in the world is New Orleans so this place definitely did not disappoint. We started with coffee drinks, I had some sort of boozy espresso drink which I could have done without since the bitters tasted like licorice which is probably a taste preference. My husband had the grandma coffee which was also fine. Then the food came out and it went up from here! The catfish & grits just might be the best I've ever had. My husband also really enjoyed his banana foster French toast, & i loved that they allowed you to get one piece of fried chicken because i had to try it out despite a full meal. The wing I had was Nice & crunchy with a delicious sweet sauce on the side that reminded me of mambo sauce ( a DC staple.) My husband also had the gumbo which was good but I wouldn't say our favorite. I prefer my gumbo with a little more spice but that could just be personal preference. We ended the meal with beignets: I had the ube beignet which was so unique & flavorful! I don't think I would have had a chance to try that type of beignet anywhere else so glad to try something different, it was delicious. The crawfish beignet was also so flavorful! The beignets in general were much more bready than typical beignets but still very good & unique to this place. On top of that, the service was great & the food came out quick, hot & fresh! I wish we had more time (& stomach space) to try other items on the menu, everywhere we looked everything looked delicious so we'll just have to try more the next time we're back in SF!

I shared the catfish with crawfish etouffee (special), the gumbo, and a dungeness crab beignet with my boyfriend. We also ordered some banana cream pie for the table, which was a huge hit.
