I was killing time on Saturday early afternoon on Valencia, when I walked by Curio. How is it I've never visited? I walked in, and somebody greeted me and started to hand me a menu. I just wanted to sit at the bar, I said. So he showed me to the bar on the right. No one else was there except the staff. I say, and asked for a drink menu. Nice list! I started with a Chupacabra, while the music, not too loud, played karaoke friendly tunes. A woman named Amanda, visiting from D.C. joined at the bar, and we started bopping along with Dez, the barkeep. Dez was fun, and offered us both a shot of a coffee concoction, which I gratefully accepted. I wasn't planning on a second drink, but the Sphinx sounded interesting, so I ordered. Like the first drink, it was excellent. Some of the staff came in, and shots of tequila were poured for them. Dez offered the same to me and Amanda, and again I accepted. We had a nice conversation about favorites, and I told her that I always like to ask the bartender what their favorite drink is, which is true. She quickly whipped up...something. But I felt like I stumbled upon one of those "but two get three free" soda sales at Safeway. I will definitely be back.
Popped in at 1pm on a Sunday and it was not busy- easily seated 4. The restaurant feels a little moody for brunch but the food was delicious and the drinks were flowing! Got: -Breakfast Napolean - really unique take on a Benedict/breakfast sandwich. Great layers and the puff pastry was nice and crispy. Texture texture texture, and Delicious. -Brioche French Toast - crispy outside, and soft inside, literally melt in your mouth. It was a bit stuffed with some custard inside as well. Really tasty. Absolutely getting this one again. Also did the bottomless mimosa for $25! Great deal and the drinks were perfect, really drank my worth of mimosas easily, and they didn't taste watered down or anything.
The best service ever I was so happy on Father's Day. We decided to go to Curio. Food was perfect unlimited mimosas what more could you ask for.
My husband and I just randomly came across this restaurant that looked like it had some nice brunch options so we decided to check it out. It seems reservations are preferred, however we had none but were able to get in in decent timing. One thing I didn't love was how tiny and wobbly our table was. I was constantly trying to make sure I wasn't knocking stuff off our table. Also didn't love that the water glass they gave us still very clearly had a lipstick imprint on it. The server was super apologetic and got us new glasses right away, but he was mostly busy and didn't really check on us again afterwards. We waited some time before being able to wave someone down for to-go boxes and then again for our check. The food ended up being on the boring side - maybe it was just what we chose. My husband had the french toast - it was ok, nothing spectacular. I had the birriaquilas, it was ok but expected more birria/taste of birria. The salsa that was used kinda tasted like a canned enchilada sauce and I didn't feel like I got much from the birria. Overall it wasn't necessarily a bad experience, it just wasn't really great and not somewhere I feel like I'd say "Yes, you absolutely should go there!"
I've been here about 5 times now & their birria chilaquiles were TO DIE FOR lol. Bomb drinks! Great staff, super kind even when they're insanely busy. They also play the world cup games with good energy!
Had a solid dinner here before seeing a concert at the Chapel! We were sat outside and there was a reggae jazz band playing which made the ambiance pretty fun! The band was engaging, groovy and entertaining to watch and listen to while having dinner. We got the calamari to start. Served hot, crispy and loved the dipping sauces that came with it. I also appreciated the peppers that were in the dish as well. For our main we split the coca cola braised bbq ribs dinner plate. The ribs were fall of the bone sticky, tangy and delicious. I couldnt particularly taste the coca cola aspect but they were good! The house pickles in this entree quickly became my favorite. The beans were decent but very tiny. It was like a shot glass size serving of beans. Would have appreciated a larger amount to enjoy. Service was a bit lackluster and not the most friendly or attentive but at least our dinner was good. I saw that they have a happy hour so I'd like to come check that out sometime.
I made a reservation the day before for Mother's Day brunch and surprisingly it wasn't as crowded as I thought it would be. We got seated at 11:20 a little bit later than the resy, but the servers were super great and attentive. They do AYCD mimosas here which could be a vibe, but definitely not what I was going for on this Sunday morning. Maybe I'll come back and try it a different time! Breakfast Napoleon (5/5): Definitely the best item out of everything we ordered. The puff pastry as the bread parts of the sandwich were so yummy and the chicken was delicious. Brunch Burger (4/5): Not my favorite either but a solid burger. The fries were a little not as crunchy as I would have liked, but still good. A solid choice in sandwich. Birriaquiles (4/5): Honestly, not my favorite. I thought there was going to be more stuff on top of the chips, but there wasn't as much meat as I would have liked. The one positive is that the chips were SUPER crispy EVEN though they had soaked in all the sauce. It was so so crispy and flavorful, which was honestly really good and not soggy chips like you might expect. Huevos Rancheros (4/5): Not bad, it's a bit small, and a lot of beans, but a solid crunch and good flavors.
This was one of the very worst dining experiences I've ever had in San Francisco. First and foremost, the restaurant was freezing, and we were somehow placed in an area where the heater did not work. There were plenty of other tables where we could have been placed, and we were a large group of five or six people, so it was especially uncomfortable. The food was absolutely dreadful. The salmon was dry and overcooked. The vegetables were also overcooked, a bit oily, and bland. Nothing we had suggested much care in preparation. The tables were picnic-bench style and felt very cheap and cramped for the price point. There are tons of better places at similar price points in San Francisco. Overall, between the freezing temperature, uncomfortable seating, and poor food execution, this was a very disappointing experience L
Solid brunch spot in the mission. Bottomless mimosas to help you wash down good food. The breakfast burrito and eggs Benedict are standout menu items as is the chicken and mini waffles. Attentive staff and most weekends they have live performances to add to the brunch experience. Come hungry and enjoy.
We came here on a Sunday and the outdoor patio was warm and cozy. Their menu selection was delicious and my daughter finished her whole burger, which says a lot! The salad with fried chicken was perfect and the drinks were refreshing. The service on friendly and causal.
Curio was a great experience! I stumbled upon it with some friends on a Saturday afternoon. The service was great, the food was amazing and the drinks were tasty. They have a nice outdoor patio area with plenty of seating.
Food was fantastic - appetizers were all delicious (calamari, deviled eggs, birria balls, tater tots), I enjoyed my curio Cobb salad with fried chicken pieces and a good ranch dressing. Service was also very quick and friendly and outdoor patio was nice with heaters - live music on Saturday on the patio. Note they did close the outdoor patio ceiling half way through our meal so we were basically inside. Cocktails were good - especially loved the chupacabra!
Me and my mans went on a Saturday night. The building itself gives the feeling immense and spooky labyrinth. Being that I seem to gain 5 pounds every weekend on my excursions with him, I've been trying to order lighter meals. I got the mushroom and sweet mashed potato dish, and it was really good. savory, well seasoned, succulent, other s words. I tried a bite of his tacos, so I could mention them in this review, and that's when it all went down hill. Will yelp be the justification I use to keep ordering the delicious food when I go out? Maybe. But I digress. Looking at other tables, the burgers made my mouth noticeably salivate. The buns seemed to be a well griddled bagel bun that they must make in house. I would love to go back again and again. The entertainment that night involved 2 men playing flamenco style music on guitars, very talented. It seems like a great place that scouts talent to perform, I noticed there was a venue in another part of the labyrinth. This would definitely be a common destination for me if I lived closer or drove into the city more often.

Curio is wonderful! The staff is amazing and the food is consistently good! Three cheers for Curio! read more
We were there for brunch to meet up with a friend. When we checked in, the host seated us at the parklet out on the street, even though there were plenty of open tables in the patio area and the restaurant wasn't busy. At the time, I didn't think much of it. However, shortly after, I noticed other guests being seated in the patio, which made the situation feel a bit off. It would have been appreciated if the host had been more thoughtful or at least explained the seating arrangement, rather than directing us outside without any context. The parklet dining experience was honestly not great. Cars and bicycles were constantly passing by while we were eating, which made it loud and uncomfortable. The greeting and seating process felt impersonal and could definitely use some improvement. They had an Easter Sunday brunch special, and we ordered the Monte Cristo Sandwich, a brunch burger, and some mimosas. The sandwich tasted decent, came with ham, turkey, and Swiss cheese, with a dusting of sugar. And the brunch burger tasted just ok. On a positive side, our waitress was very sweet and attentive, checking in frequently. Overall, the service from our server was great, but the host left a poor first impression. read more

The food was okay, nothing noteworthy in my personal opinion, a little overpriced for what it is. The patio area is nice on a sunny day to eat outside! Mimosas were all you can drink for 25 bucks which is pretty reasonable. read more

BOTTOMLESS MIMOSAS IS WHY I CAME!!! At $25/pp for 90 mins in SF, on a weekend, NOT during HH?! It really doesn't get better than this! We got orange for the first round and cranberry for the second round. Yes, we definitely made the 90min bottomless worth while!! Treated my cousin here for brunch and I must say it does get crowed quickly. Our wait time was about an hour, once seated I ordered the "salmon Benedict" and my cousin ordered the "Hangover". The spot is small but not crowded, they had a separate bar and apparently is connected to a theater as well but that's a whole different space that's accessible during night time I believe. Parking is always hard in the mission district so be mindful of that. Overall it's a great brunch space, literal hidden gem. read more
This neighborhood joint has some surprisingly flavorful bites that make for an enjoyable night out in the Mission. Standouts include the spicy sweet potato tempura (we subbed this $8 side dish as an alternative to one of the $14-20 appetizers and were surprised at how filling they were) and the coca-cola ribs. The cocktails were also home runs and worth the $16 price tag. The spicy jack burger was decent but a bit too dry and not quite cooked to order, especially for a $20 burger (and mind you, it doesn't come with sides). If you're deciding between the burger and another entree, I'd recommend gambling on the non-burger option. We were surprised when sitting down for a 7:30pm reservation that several items were already out for the evening, including the calamari, the mixed green salads, the oysters, AND the braised short rib. It was a bit of a bummer as we had wanted to order the calamari and the short rib, but maybe it's a sign that these items were so popular and definitely worth trying next time!! The garden patio was darling and opened to Valencia Street, where we got to watch the bi-monthly salsa community dance in the street. Definitely a romantic and charming spot! The tables in the garden looked capable of hosting decent-sized parties without too much hassle. Service was eager, if not a bit chaotic -- our drinks were taken immediately, but it took some time before we could order our meals. The staff was very friendly though, and it seemed as though they may have also had duties in the other connected rooms to Curio (the indoor bar and the Chapel music venue next door), as they would rush between them. Ultimately it was a good time and worth the try. Food was mostly hits, and the location made it easy to go bar hopping after for another cocktail. read more

Came here at 1:30 PM on a Sunday and there were plenty of tables available inside because most people were seated outdoors. There's a lot of seating inside but it can get quite noisy. My friend and I wanted to order the Shakshuka and the Breakfast Napoleon, but the waitress didn't tell us until after we were trying to order that they did not have those today and replaced them with Pozole and Quesabirria. We ended up ordering the Huevos Rancheros and the Brunch Burger. The food came out in a fairly timely manner. These were the prettiest Huevos Rancheros I've ever gotten for sure, and the flavor was pretty food as well. Loved the jalapeños in it -- added the right kick of spice. Portion size was about average, I would say I was satisfied but not full. My friend enjoyed her burger, and even getting a half salad on the side was a decent sized salad. They were able to split the bill for us at the end which was very convenient. Overall, a cute brunch place! read more

Curio is a really great vibe. Perfect for grabbing drinks on Valencia street and enjoying brunch at their back patio. It was the perfect stop during Pride weekend before more festivities! The food was solid, with a delicious ranch on my cobb salad. The drinks were tasty, I got the scorcerer's apprentice drinks came out a bit slow, but can't complain with a nice waiter and poppin' ambiance I'd definitely go back! read more
Second time coming here for brunch and it was just as amazing as it was the first time. Order: We started off with a glass of OJ and Black Magic Bloody (Bloody Mary), deviled eggs, brioche French toast, huevos ranchero, and salmon Benedict. Bloody is my go to drink, healthy and delicious. The huevos rancheros had many layers with yolks ready to be popped. The salmon Benedict was the favorite item of the day, Def delicious and yolky. Derek welcomed us and Julio was our server. We were seated at a corner at the outside patio where we had Walter (our senior poodle) in a stroller. The vibe was lovely, all of the tables were seated and the music was chill. This is definitely an amazing brunch spot. With so many people, the food is made fresh and the atmosphere is felt. Can't wait to come back again. read more
Curious about Curio, that's how my companion and I stumbled upon it. We were looking for a spot to sip and talk in the Mission and found it by chance. The patio was the perfect place to unwind with rocking 80s music, a chill crowd, and appetizing bites and drinks. There are two sections to Curio: the dimly enchanting indoor bar or the airy and loud patio. We sat in the patio where there's plenty of tables spaced out on the outside and inside. It's the perfect ambiance for a casual get together with dates or friends. Throughout our experience, service was attentive but not overbearing. We were occasionally checked on and notified when it would be last call. The drinks and bites were a winner! Normally bar food, especially American fare is nothing to wow over. Curio's menu is carefully crafted with some familiar yet fusion ailments. My companion and I shared their Sweet Potato Tempura. Honestly didn't expect much but was pleasantly left satisfied. The crust was crunchy, the sweet potato was flavorful, and it was well seasoned and spiced. Their gochujang aioli is chefs kiss with the right spice and the lemon on top helps add acidity. I'd definitely order these again or come during their happy hour for more. Curio's a casual yet lively spot for nourishments and refreshments and cordial service. Find their establishment in the heart of the Mission District off of Valencia. They serve starters and mains for brunch and dinner plus a happy hour, which I wanna check out! read more
Curio is an absolutely fantastic spot, whether you're gearing up for a show or planning a leisurely brunch. The deviled eggs, tuna tartar, and chicken wings are not just delicious, but also perfectly shareable, making your dining experience a social affair. The buttermilk chicken sandwich, with its delightful crunch and moist chicken, is a testament to the chef's skill. The drinks, a perfect accompaniment to the meal. We rounded off our dining experience with a satisfying espresso and a delectable dessert. Service was great and kept or drinks filled and made sure we had plenty of water. We enjoyed the talented sounds being played on the keyboard to set the ambience. We later found our way to the show. read more
If our thrift crawl turned into a creepy crawl, then Curio is the cure! Swept into this dark and enchanted bar in the early afternoon, we felt it was the perfect setup to do our (generic) Astrology reading from the cards we purchased earlier. Flashlight courtesy of our phones. I was captivated by the afterlife wall with all the clocks melting into each other like a Dali painting. The bartender is amazing! Made us the most delicious cocktails - Lil Lilith and Mermaid. Best cocktails we had in a while! We also indulged in some deviled eggs. Totally delicious and on theme. If you like a bit more sun, and less darkness, they have patio seating. read more

Brunch with bottomless mimosas, live DJ, & delicious food... what more can you ask for! To start off, we had a party of 10 and the service was fantastic. Our food came out quickly and everyone's bottomless mimosa was constantly taken care of. I ordered the shakshouka. This was my first time trying this dish and I'm so happy I did. It met all of my savory needs! The dish is tomato based that is full of spices! Dipping the brioche into the dish incorporated a bit of sweetness that I LOVED Huevos rancheros: this dish was presented differently than your classic Huevos rancheros. While it was delicious, I would've loved to see refried beans on this rather than pinto beans Overall amazing experience! read more
After a recent experience, I'm updating my previous review. On this visit, for dinner and drinks before a concert, I sat in their outdoor patio (as opposed to the bar). It was a beautiful early spring evening. They had a Jazz/Reggae threesome playing live, which really added to my enjoyment. The staff was so nice and attentive. I was dining on my own, which can sometimes feel a bit awkward. Not so here. They made me feel very comfortable and welcomed. I ordered their Chupachabra cocktail, which is made from both tequila and mezcal. It was so delicious. When I eat out, I never have room for dessert. I really wanted to try their Bread Pudding ($10) so I purposely ordered a smaller dinner, a 1/2 Mixed Green Salad ($8) and 1-Beef Quesabirria ($10). Everything was excellent. The sauce that comes with the Quesabirra, which is a taco with tender beef, is so tasty your tempted to eat it like a soup. I was so wise to leave room for the Bread Pudding. The flavors of the sauce really added to the overall delicious pudding. It's topped with fresh chopped strawberries and some fresh whipped cream. Seriously yum! As The Chapel is one of my favorite concert venues, it's so convenient to come a little early and have food and drinks at Curio before hand. I'm definitely looking forward to doing so in their patio the next time I come! read more

This place has such a cute vibe. We sat outside in the patio for dinner on a Saturday, group of 6. There was a piano player (with a bonus dog!), and the music was just the right volume (loud enough to be heard, quiet enough to talk over). The menu was as seen on here, but they were out of like 5 things. Even with that, everyone at our table seemed happy with their dishes. Pics of the pasta with chicken (fantastic! Very filling!) and the salmon (also fantastic but a smaller portion than my partner was expecting). Would definitely come again. read more
Curio Bar has an enchanting ambiance, as it embraces its past life as an old mortuary. If that isn't your thing you can be seated at their outdoor patio, for live music with brunch. We started with the Carajillo, a coffee drink with brandy, followed by Curio's top-selling Chupacabra cocktail that is both smoky and spicy. For starters we got the bruleed pineapple and Lobster Rangoons, which were so crunchy and sweet. The Fried Chicken & Waffle Bites with pickled strawberries, offered a fun twist on a classic dish. We also got the Mixed Green Salad with fried tofu, Eggs Benedict, with sage home fries, and the Shakshuka, baked eggs nestled in a bed of red sauce and feta cheese. Curio not only serves mouthwatering dishes and drinks, but it also offers an excellent setting for weekend brunch with friends. read more

What a spread! Thank you Amy, we'e glad you had an awesome time. See…
Nice environment and atmosphere. We were going to the concert that night and decided to eat dinner and get some drinks here. The mermaid is such a fantastic drink I would recommend it. I was not a fan of any of the food that we ordered . The tofu spring rolls had such an odd flavor. It tasted fruity and herby in a way you would not expect a spring roll to taste. The chicken tenders were small pieces of popcorn shrimp that tasted okay when dipped into the bbq sauce or the lemony-herby ranch? The potato wedges had an odd aroma of smoke. Nothing like I've ever tasted before from a fry. The sweet potato tempura had a sweet herby flavor. They were pretty good. Service was a little unorganized but everyone was friendly. I would come back here for drinks but not for food. read more
This place had such an amazing and curated menu for restaurant week! I went here with some of my friends for a later dinner on Saturday and had such an amazing time! We were tucked away in the corner and it felt like we were in our own little world. The food was fucking fantastic, I absolutely loved every bite I had. I wish I had more but honestly I was so full by the end of the meal. The service was great and all the employees were friendly! I couldn't have asked for a better time or better food. Love this place and I hope I can come back soon! read more

Visited Curio for brunch over Halloween weekend for a group of four on a Saturday. We were able to make reservations the night before. - fresh spring roll with grilled tofu - shakshuka - breakfast napoleon - crispy pork Benedict - mermaid - black magic We actually arrived about 20 min late as we were about 5 min late leaving but it took FOREVER to find parking in the Mission. The restaurant was incredibly kind enough to sit our friend first even though we were late. The restaurant features a main bar area, which is inside, as well as an outdoor dining area, where brunch took place. Since it was Halloween weekend, the outdoor space was wonderfully decorated which really added to the aesthetic. There was also live music which we were prepared for so that was a lovely treat. The menu features a bottomless brunch option for $20 which is a good deal for SF! The brunch mains were also reasonably priced, with maybe an average price around $16-$18, so overall, one can get bottomless brunch and food for under $40 which is definitely a steal. We ended up not going with the bottomless as we were recovering a little bit but ordered individual cocktails instead. I got the black magic Bloody Mary which was delicious. The food was pretty quick to come out and the presentation of every dish was great. I got the breakfast napoleon, which was almost like a unique take of chicken and waffles, utilizing puff pastry instead as well as smaller bites of chicken throughout. The flavor and gravy of this dish was great but I did find the chicken to be a bit too breaded, especially for smaller pieces. Overall though, it's a hidden gem brunch spot that definitely a cool vibe and a great deal if you want to enjoy a weekend brunch with friends! read more
