Beef Benedict w/ Arugula
Brennan S.

Went to Cheminé after a walk around Fillmore and was super impressed! The atmosphere is subdued, relaxed and comfortable. Pretty artsy and calm. The staff was very pleasant- I asked for no avocado on the beef Benedict I ordered- the staff recommended arugula, which was a nice suggestion. The Benedict was fantastic- the beef was tender and in good-portion. The hollandaise sauce was savory and sweet while the eggs were cooked perfectly. The iced americano was bold and smooth and I could tell the beans were fresh. Great experience and definitely worth the visit!

baklava cheesecake

Cute cozy cafe with tons of food, drink, and dessert options. I was surprised to see that they are open until midnight some days! Came with a friend on a Sunday and it was quite busy unexpectedly but we snagged a seat before it got too crowded. We split the baklava cheesecake, which was very creamy and rich (def share a slice). It has a nutty crust and pistachio on top, which adds a unique flavor. The other desserts looked yummy too, and their food also looks good! The seats are comfy near the front and service is minimal -- water is self serve. I saw there's a fireplace too which is cool. There was great natural lighting inside so a good spot to sit for a while and catch up with someone or read/get work done.

This is such a good addition to the neighborhood! The pastries as well as a sandwiches have traditional with some unique twist! They are known for baklava cheesecake and for a good reason! It was 10/10 l, very unique very flavorful! I will be coming back specifically for that! Also got a pastel de nata and that was yummy. They were able to warm it up. Will be coming back to try more of their sandwiches. A friend got the turkey avocado and really enjoyed it! Lots of seating inside service was quick. The drinks also looked very interesting.

I think this place is maybe a 3.5/5 for food/drinks but a 5/5 for atmosphere, friendliness, and overall vibes. I stopped by here one afternoon to do some reading and it was perfect for that! There was wifi as well as a ton of seating, ranging from comfy nooks with pillows to tables with outlets. It seems to be a family run business and the woman running it mentioned that all the desserts were homemade. I tried the baklava cheesecake which was so pretty! It was pretty tasty but I didn't care for the texture of the phyllo or the rose petals. I'm being a bit picky though, and the fact that it's homemade is really impressive. I also got an iced americano which was pretty standard. A perfect cozy spot to hang out!

Passion Matcha ($8.50) + Chicken and Vegetable Filled Phyllo Pastry ($9.15)
Tiffany Y.

this is probably my favorite coffee shop in the Marina to work in because it has lots of light, great seating, wonderful service, and super fun drinks / small bites! I got the iced passion matcha ($8.50), which surprised me on how good the passion fruit flavor was, but it was lacking on the matcha. It almost just tasted like a passion fruit milk to me. I also got the chicken and vegetable pastry, which was heated up, and hit the spot. Would definitely recommend coming here!

Toast

The owners are delighful, the ambiance is chic and friendly. I will return. I came in on a Sunday morning with my family and the place is clean and the aesthetic is inviting. The food is delicious! We ordered an avocado smoothie, passion matcha, avocado toast, raspberry macaron, fruit bowl and salmon bagel. All the food was made to order and came out quickly and beautiful. They offer a water bowl for fur babies and treats. I'm so happy I came here! Street parking is available. Indoor and outdoor seating is convient.

Coconut Water Matcha
Lisa W.

Visited this cafe on a Saturday morning/early afternoon. If you are looking for a place to study or read, I would recommend because it has plenty of seating. Only some tables had outlets. However, the wifi was not very strong and my friend was not able to get much work done. Overall though, the interior was really cute and I would recommend coming with friends to share a drink and chat. In terms of the drinks themselves, I would rate a 3/5 but not sure if we just ordered the wrong things. The coconut matcha tasted diluted and the matcha flavor was not very strong. Same with the Smores coffee, the coffee itself tasted very diluted and I barely tasted the flavor of the drink. The drinks were also pricey (around $9 each).

Apple pastry
Lily Z.

Oh gosh, I wanted to gatekeep this place after stumbling upon it after a workout class that got cancelled, but it'd truly be a crime... Food: 5/5 their California salad is to die for! - Tender, well spiced chicken, perfect balance of corn and chicken to balance out greens without dressing that is too overpowering. Had to come back two days later...Hope to try peach and burrata salad next time - caprese Benedict: yummy but smaller portion size. Served on avo toast. I normally hate Benedict because it's too heavy but was convinced to try a bite and to my surprise, I did not find the sauce and yolk combo to be overpowering at all! - drinks: we ordered hot matcha latte (okay quality, on slower days there's cute latte art) and cardamom latte -pastries: I've tried the baklava cheese cake (has edible flowers on top and warning -- it's RICH so I'd recommend sharing ), apple turnover? (INSANE!!!! My favorite for sure. Must get it slightly heated! Natural flavor of the apple shows through without too much sugar and combines with the light cream and flaky yet chewy pastry underneath for a perfect bite every time), Portuguese egg tart (I'd recommend getting with jam on top. It's not too sweet which is great, definitely tastes more "Portuguese" than Chinese. crust is okay but unfortunately my standard is Bakehouse in Hong Kong now in terms of flakiness...), yuzu macaron, and pistachio macaron Ambiance: 5/5. Clearly a family owned business. Soooo sweet! On weekdays service can be a bit slower as everything is made to order but you can truly feel the love that goes into every dish, the thought behind every corner of seating in the interior. When inside the cafe I genuinely feel like I'm abroad/detached from world around me. Good for a solo date, date with partner, or small group of friends $$: medium in terms of affordability. Typical sf cafe in the marina prices.

I've only tried the matcha, so this review doesn't take into account their food or coffee! I had heard great things about the matcha, but was sadly disappointed. I ordered a seasonal gingerbread matcha latte ($8.50) and while the gingerbread flavor was good, I couldn't taste the matcha at all. I'd go to Tadaima or Komeya if you're looking for matcha in the area. The interior is nice and cozy with many tables! Seems like a family run business which is nice.

Came around 12 on a Friday and they had plenty of open seats! If there's anything to try, it's the baklava cheesecake. I cannot stop thinking about it. It's quite filling but so worth it!! The space is so clean and nice to chat with friends but also to do some work and reading. The staff is also incredibly sweet and so fun to talk to!

Passion Matcha (Oat Milk)
Kyra K.

My companion found Cheminé and wanted to take me since I like matcha. The cafe is so cute and makes for a nice spot to work. We arrived on a weekday. The cafe has good natural light, a decent amount of seating, WiFi, and a casual vibe. I saw lots of people working here. There's a good amount of indoor seating as well as some tables outside. Dogs are allowed inside! Ordering is simple: read the menu, examine the pastry display, place your order, and pay. Service was efficient! The companion got their Pumpkin Matcha, and I got a Passion Matcha with Oat Milk. They were out of soy. I chose this because I've never seen passionfruit offered with matcha. It was sweet yet tart--barely any matcha flavor, leaning more towards the milky side. The price is quite expensive, and it came to over $10 for the drink. I wasn't impressed. I did like my companion more. If you're looking for high-quality matcha, I'd probably skip this place. Cheminé is a cute cafe with food and drinks in the Marina. I'd come back to work but would order something else. Parking is street only.

Baklava Cheesecake and Americano
Chelsea N.

Cozy and spacious cafe in the Marina! Loved how much natural sunlight it got. The Americano and baklava cheesecake were spot on. Would come again for the cheesecake and for the friendly service.

Tiramisu Matcha Latte
Sarah C.

the drinks we got looked way better than they tasted. we got both the tiramisu matcha latte ($9.50) and the tiramisu latte ($9) and firstly, both were too milky. I like my matcha and espresso strong in my lattes and could not taste a hint of matcha and only a hint of espresso respectively. secondly, the mascarpone was rock solid and difficult to mix into the drinks. it eventually melted but separated into little milk solids. bonus points for calm vibes for working or reading, we sat at a table right by the patio but we also saw a rat scurrying outside on the patio

I came in at 9am on a Friday with a friend and got seated right away. The place was still packed,…read moreso it took a little while to order. There is a good amount of seating, but the tables are quite close to each other (your neighbors will be eavesdropping). We ordered the smoked salmon toast and a florentine benedict. The salmon was fresh and the toast was stacked! My friend wasn't too impressed with the benedict, but it was good. The side salad that it comes with is actually delicious! And if you have a sweet tooth, order an ube latte or thai tea, and finish with a Sweet Dream. It comes with waffles and a side of fruits, ice cream, fudge, and whipped cream.

Delicious Beignets & Breakfast!…read more We were visiting the area from San Francisco, and a friend recommended this restaurant. Get there early because it fills up very quickly! We arrived just in time before it started getting busy. I was especially excited to try the beignets, so I ordered the Beignet Flight--crawfish, cinnamon apple, chocolate, and the classic regular beignet. Très bon! They were all delicious! The crawfish had great flavor, with dough that was crispy outside and soft inside. The regular beignet was especially good--crispy outside, soft inside, just perfect. And definitely eat the chocolate beignet while it's still warm. When you bite into it, that warm, gooey chocolate comes out. So good! The coffee was excellent too. I highly recommend a latte with the beignets. My husband had the Eggs Benedict with deep-fried green tomatoes and bacon, and it was another level! The crispy green tomato with the eggs and sauce was such a great combination. If you didn't tell me it was green tomato, I might have thought it was an apple! We also loved seeing so many locals there. You know a place is good when the locals keep coming back. Highly recommend this restaurant to visitors and locals alike. Give it a try--you're going to love it!
