Great breakfast sandwich. Got the special. Tons of sauce and a super fresh biscuit. They also had a salsa that added a great flavor and spice. (Went to another location and they were super confused when I asked for the salsa? Might be only this spot) Fun little bookstore inside too
There are few combinations which go well with food like peanut butter and jelly, chicken and waffles, and french fries and ketchup. Then there are some interesting collaborations in the fast food world like a KFC and Taco Bell restaurants or the Baskin Robins and Dunkin Donuts shop. A collaboration which goes perfect in my book is a cafe and a bookstore like the late Tanforan location of Barnes and Noble and Starbucks with The Cheesecake Factory pastries . There is one collaboration which is organic and native to San Francisco. These combination are the best of the best in San Francisco in their category of business. It's located in the Embarcadero Center at Embarcadero 1 and it's Devils Teeth / Green Apple Bookstore. In an Embarcadero stroll I landed at Embarcadero 1 at Devils Teeth. I have tried the other two Devils Teeth stores in the Outer Richmond and the other at the Sunset Strip of San Francisco and they are legit. This store really is my favorite one now because they added my favorite bookstore Green Apple. Inside they serve the coffee and breakfast sandwiches along their known flakey pastries like some in SF. I got the breakfast sandwich from other bacon and egg on a biscuit . This combination of savory and buttery was my jam. I then I washed it down with an ice mocha which was not too sweet and the combination hit the spot. The Green Apple bookstore inside has a very good curated collection which has the right amount of books about food and the human experience. This is definitely the spot everyday of the week for breakfast and lunch . Go on a Sunday because they have $1 beignets because you cannot get anything good in San Francisco for $1 these days. San Francisco is the place to get great combinations and independent collaborations like The Mill on "Divisadero" with Josef Baker Bread and coffee from "Four Barrel" in San Francisco the city has lots of one way streets so follow the one direction "arrow"especially around the Financial District in the "Embarcadero " Go to the Embarcadero in San Francisco and become a "food crawler"the have many cafes and restaurants no matter if you are white or blue "collar"and grab a pastry and a coffee and read a book inside Devils Teeth and Green Apple and become a food "scholar"then go on a Sunday because they have beignets for "one dollar"
Great breakfast sandwich spot that is hearty and filling. I shared the sandwich with my friend as it is a big sandwich and it's perfect for two people to eat. The sandwich was more on the garlic side but I really liked the sauce they put in the sandwich itself. It's nice they use a biscuit as the bread because I like a good biscuit it for breakfast. The avocado gives it a nice touch to mellow out the sauce and eggs.
Massive and delicious breakfast sandwich. Super filling and satisfying we ended up splitting it and using their house salsa. The salsa itself was not spicy to us but added good flavor. It's counter service and they have a cute small bookstore inside to peruse while you wait for your food. The line to order gets long here so come prepared. We took our sando around the corner to enjoy at the Embarcadero plaza in the sun overlooking the ferry building while people watching.
Small location right in One Embarcadero. I stopped by on my way back to work after an appointment to get some sweets. I opted for a chocolate chip cookie and a strawberry banana muffin. Hubby enjoyed the chocolate chip cookie but said not the best he's had. I ate my muffin the next day for breakfast and it was pretty good. It was still moist with just the right amount of denseness. Minus one star due to gnats flying around the baked goods which normally would result in me walking right back out without buying anything, but I wanted to give this place a try.
Love this branch of Devil's Teeth. They have the most delicious breakfast sandwiches and yummy treats like a donut muffin. And on Sundays they have beignets for $1 each. They also have a variety of lunchtime sandwiches like a tuna melt, and grilled cheese and soup combo. Only one complaint: when there's a long line for food, people should be able to go straight to the cashier to buy books at the adjoining bookstore. I skipped my book purchase because I had already waited in the line once to order my food.
The pictures I took just don't do it justice. This was a hearty, massive breakfast sandwich and super filling and super tasty! I've been wanting to check this spot out for quite a while now and so glad that I did. I love that the inside of the building is connected to a tiny bookstore. It makes the ambience that much better.
I've had the breakfast sandwich here and the beignets. The Richmond location is always packed but has a nice outdoor patio and this location is cute and clean with a bookstore while you wait. The staff are friendly and helpful. Everyone says this is the best breakfast sandwich in SF and it was good, but it's not my favorite. It's quite large and messy, making it hard to eat and when I had it the biscuits were a little dry. I tried the normal beignets and special strawberry ones for Valentine's Day. They're hot and fresh and well priced, I'm not an expert in beignets but I know people say they're light and pillowy. These are more dense but the flavor is good! Overall a big fan of this business, I just gravitate to the less famous menu items.
The infamous breakfast sandwich spot. This location is a little trickier to find parking since it's in a more central location of SF. I think I prefer the other location more. I placed an order online along with my 2 other friends. I drove us there and they went to pick up our order while I wait in the car. Luckily, it was super fast. The special breakfast is $14 and packed with flavor. The fluffy egg, crispy bacon, avocado, and sauce inside a warm fluffy and light biscuit. Appreciate the consistency to their other location.
Devil's Teeth, named for the Farallon Islands and the book that charts their raw mythos, lives up to its name... sharp, elemental, and unforgettable. I walked in at 9:30 on a Saturday. No line. Fifteen minutes later, the place had a full-blown following behind me. Timing is a kind of knowing. I asked for sourdough instead of biscuit. A quiet recalibration. The sandwich was everything. My partner's three eggs with add-ons disappeared like a decision already made. The books on the shelf were serious. No fluff. Cookbooks with backbone. Essays with heat. A place that understands hunger on multiple levels. And the hot sauce? It preached.
I've been wanting to try Devils Teeth for a while, ordered the regular breakfast sandwich with no cheese. It was so tasty! The biscuit was light and fluffy, generous with the egg portion, and bacon wasn't super salty. Their house made hot sauce also added a nice touch
Wednesday, May 14, 2025 11am: After wandering the Embarcadero Center mall of doom I came upon Devil's Teeth. Wow, $6 Avocado Toast! Threw in some bacon for $2. Such a deal. 4 stars for the friendly, fast service. No seating here, but an awesome bookstore inside. My favorite book was Serial Killer Guide to San Francisco. Anyway, the avocado chunks were generous. I liked the crispy bacon. Minus 1 star because the 'toast' was actually a sandwich. For the uninitiated, avocado toast is an open face item. And the bread is Toasted, hence the name. Sigh. As Devils Teeth is strictly take-out, I recommend climbing 1 flight of stairs to the elevated walkway which had lots of tables & chairs. Great start to the day.
My friend and I decided to check out Devil's Teeth for lunch during the week. They don't have seating inside but it is pretty spacious with a section where they have a collab with Green Apple Books. We ordered with the cashier and it came out pretty quickly around 10 minutes for our sandwiches. Regular Breakfast Sandwich - The biscuit was the star of the sandwich, homemade, fluffy, buttery and had a little bit of sweetness. The bacon and cheese came through a bit with the saltiness but the majority was the egg which had a nice texture but needed a bit more seasoning. The salsa on the side was not too spicy, a more mild flavor that added more depth to it. It does become very filling and heavy. It was a signature breakfast sandwich in San Francisco that is worth checking out.
These breakfast sandwiches are hyped up and for good reason. I've never been a big breakfast sandwich person, but I LOVE these: the buttery and flakey biscuit, tangy and rich aioli, hefty serving of avocado, and thick cut bacon. It all goes together so well-- you don't even need their house-made hot sauce. They make beignets on Sundays which are $1/donut and also pretty delicious. No seating inside this location but you can find seats in the Embarcadero centers. Usually staff is super nice, but one week they were so rude. Don't know what was up with that. read more
This place has been on my radar for quite some time and I had the opportunity to stop by and try it. Walking in, there's your regular cafe to the left and a super cute book store to the right. I loved being able to walk around when I was waiting for my food. The workers were really nice and were able to recommend some items as it was our first time there. I ordered what I came for which was the special breakfast sandwich. This was divine! I would definitely come back just for this sandwich. The filling was the perfect amount but I would love to talk about the homemade biscuit. The biscuit was perfectly soft, buttery, and flakey. In addition to the sandwich, we got a bacon cheddar muffin and cinnamon roll. To be quite honest, I was very disappointed in these two. The bacon cheddar muffin was DRY. It was hard to chew and I ended up tossing it. The cinnamon roll was quite hot, the flavors were ok but I was a little thrown off by it not having any frosting. There was a lot of cinnamon between the layers and it was very thick when biting into it. Felt somewhat powdery in your mouth. Drinks were ok, just your average chai and coffee. I would definitely come back but would like to try something new. read more

Their egg sandwiches are . On a flaky homemade biscuit, with avocado. It's everything you want an egg sandwich to be! Also got the coffee cake, which was moist and had a thick, delicious topping with oatmeal and cinnamon. Will be back and will try their cinnamon roll. read more
I was able to try their Special Breakfast Sandwich without bacon, cinnamon roll, and iced oat milk latte. I don't think their food is intrinsically different than your typical walk up cafe-it's just that this is more "local" than the chains in the Financial district. Even though the sandwich already came with lemon-garlic aioli, it still tasted dry, so I would recommend ordering an additional side of lemon-garlic aioli. The cinnamon roll was so hard to eat because every bite was super sweet and the iced oat milk latte was just cold brew mixed with oat milk, which was disappointing because there is a clear differentiator between cold brew and a shot of espresso! I'm glad I got to try this one time for the one time, but I wouldn't come back. read more

The Devil's Teeth Baking Company empire just keeps growing and growing with this third location, this time in San Francisco's downtown Financial District. Located in the Embarcadero Center One, which is the first of four buildings that is the one that is furthest away from the street that is Embarcadero, this location of Devil's Teeth Baking Company replaced a former Melt burger restaurant and is the city's direct response to filling vacant storefronts in a new program called "Vacant to Vibrant''. This program with financial assistance from the city gives businesses grants and free rent for three months to take over and transform various empty storefronts in the downtown area. Of the over thousand businesses, artists and organizations that applied for this special program, only seventeen were selected to fill nine storefronts, many of whom were asked to share these vacant spaces, and of those seventeen only five were food businesses. This is why I was so excited to hear that Devil's Teeth Baking Company was finally going to come downtown, even if it was for only three months. So I made sure to hightail outside in the streets of San Francisco walking along Sacramento Street looking for this new mythical location. Upon finding their new location as they were still in a soft opening phase they weren't slammed with customers even though it was 11 o'clock in the early morning and they only had a couple more hours to go in their first day. Sharing their space with a downtown location of Green Apple Books, Devil's Teeth Baking company didn't do too much to the old Melt space as their order counter was still in business, and added a glass case for all of their baked goods ready to be showcased. Of course no visit to Devil's Teeth Baking Company is complete without ordering their signature Breakfast Sandwich, which is an egg sandwich served between a sliced freshly baked biscuit. The menu at this location of Devil's Teeth Baking Company is the same as their other two locations, as in addition to their two sandwiches, they have other breakfast centered items on their menu including Avocado Toast, and lunch centered items on their menu including a B.L.T. and Tuna Melt and even Lasagna. Of course, I had to order a Breakfast Sandwich and since I've already had their regular Breakfast Sandwich, I knew I had to order their Special Breakfast Sandwich with this visit. As it had two scrambled eggs served with bacon, pepper jack cheese, avocado, and lemon-garlic aioli all served between a sliced buttermilk biscuit. To accompany my meal, I ordered their Special Ginger Cookie, of which I have had before and the last time I ordered it at their other location a regular customer said it was their best cookie and they were right! So when I saw they had plenty of these cookies available I immediately decided to order it yet again! It didn't take too long for my Breakfast Sandwich to be freshly prepared by their hard-working staff, as I had my cookie and breakfast meal out the door in no time. My total bill was $16.29 before gratuity was added in, which wasn't the cheapest meal I have ever had but is inline with what meals cost these days, especially in the city. Besides, one of San Francisco's most iconic breakfast restaurants has taken the initiative to open an additional location in an area that perhaps needs them the most right now: downtown. Being able to walk around the city's streets enjoying my ooey gooey sandwich was a thing of wonder and with a crisp ginger cookie to balance out the flavor, I was in sweet and savory heaven. I cannot wait to patronize Devil's Teeth Baking Company from now until the end of the year, especially to grab a mocha and another of their signature cookies, you cannot go wrong. Plus who knows? Maybe this location will become so successful that they decide they want to stay here for the long run and decide to sign a long-term lease. Stranger things have happened in cities that are stranger than San Francisco. For now I am celebrating this third location of Devil's Teeth Baking Company, and hoping this "pop up" means "vacant to vibrant" is not just a fleeting concept. read more

There are a trillion coffee shops in the City (probably only a slight exaggeration) and I have plenty I love. This was a new discovery today as I happened to be walking by and felt the call of coffee overtake me. The staff is all friendly and helpful, and not in a disingenuous sort of way, but genuinely kind and welcoming. Coffee was great, but that's not a tough thing to pull off. What really impressed me were the muffins. The strawberry and banana muffin tasted of fresh fruit because it contained plenty. Natural sweetness and genuine, authentic flavor made this one of the best muffins I have ever tried. The donut muffin is cinnamon and sugar, almost a churro flavor, but ate more like a snickerdoodle. That's not a complaint, I just like things heavier on cinnamon than most, but it was still very tasty. read more

I got there around 9 on a Thursday and didn't have long wait. There was a steady stream of customers but never a line more than a few people. I ordered the regular breakfast sandwich and asked for a side of aioli because I was t sure I'd like the lemon. The staff was helpful and offered to let me taste it first. If you're unsure I say go for it. It isn't a strong lemon taste and adds so much to the sandwich! I also subbed the bacon for greens and tomato. The sandwich itself was the perfect meal! Plenty of cheesy egg and the biscuit itself was soft yet crunchy on the outside and so flavorful. There is no seating inside or out but a few blocks over is a nice little park with benches or you can head to the pier and sit by the water. I also got a cinnamon roll for later. Don't pass up on that either! I was skeptical when I saw it didn't have icing, but it was amazing. Definitely heat it up in an oven or pan or air fryer to get it caramelized. Every layer was filled with gooey cinnamon sugar goodness!! read more

I think this place open this week so I decided to give a shot. The aroma of fresh baked pastries oozed out the door that I couldn't resist. I ordered the Special Breakfast Sandwich which was a fresh baked biscuit with bacon, egg, avocado and cheese smothered with a lemon garlic aioli sauce. The sandwich was amazing. The sauce paired well with the sandwich and the bacon was nice and crisp along with the freshness of that biscuit. It has to be one of the best breakfast sandwiches I've ever tried. Only negative I would say about the sandwich is that they need do with fried eggs instead of that liquid egg kind but other than that it was a pretty amazing breakfast. Didn't try the coffee as I normally don't drink coffee but I would recommend this place if you are looking for the perfect breakfast sandwich. Four thumbs up! read more

I love the other devils teeth location in the sunset, so when I saw they had a new location in Embarcadero I of course had to swing by! As a heads up, this is a pop up, so there is zero seating here but there are plenty of small parks nearby that you can swing by to enjoy your food! There was a short line when we arrived, so another staff member picked up an iPad and assisted in ordering to help expedite service, which we all appreciated. I ordered the special breakfast sandwich (no bacon), a classic, and a dirty chai. Their chai is spicy not sweet, which I prefer! It did taste just a little watered down though, so I think will stick to coffee in the future. I can't see myself going out of the way for this location but I'm happy for the new addition! read more

I've heard rave reviews about Devil's Teeth for years, but never made the trek out to try them. As a breakfast sandwich enthusiast, I had to try the embarcadero pop up when it opened. The line was short when I arrived, and I received my sandwich in about 5 minutes. As for the sandwich itself -- loved the biscuit and bacon. The egg was a bit all over the place with how gloopy it was, and the avo also spilled out a bit. I could have used a bit more flavor and texture, but overall it was delicious. read more

So excited that Devil's Teeth has a location near downtown! Food: the special breakfast sandwich is tried and true. It's just as good here as it is at other locations. The flaky biscuit, perfect eggs, and delicious sauce are everything I want in a breakfast sandwich. I also went on a Sunday when they have beignets for $1! Sizing was generous, beignets came out piping hot, and I enjoyed every bite. I also ordered a mocha which was delicious Service: super friendly, super efficient! Ambiance: love the open space and it's shared with a small bookstore read more

I was very excited that Devil's Teeth finally opened up a location in downtown SF! I've been wanting to try this sf sandwich staple, but their outer richmond / sunset locations are just way too far :( They opened very recently and I haven't seen a ton of promotions on social media, so the line was very short when I went. We ordered a breakfast biscuit sandwich & it took about 10-15 mins to get the food. There is no seating and the food is to-go only. They didn't have any espresso drinks when I went (I think because they just opened and didn't have everything set up yet). The sandwich was delicious but also quite heavy. They also sell books at this location, which was quite cute. It's a pretty spacious storefront. read more

This place opened very recently and very excited to see it here - don't have to order for delivery or go to the outskirts of SF. Always solid go-to for breakfast place. Breakfast sandwich is a must, just a little warning - it will hold you over past midday. They have friendly and quick service depending on foot traffic. No place to sit as the storefront is a shared space with micro bookstore. read more

Get the special breakfast sandwich (yes the lemon aioli makes it amazing), if it's Sunday get the beignets and then walk 5 minutes to the left and eat it at the Ferry Building. You won't be sorry. I had other breakfast plans for tomorrow and instead I'll be eating the best breakfast sandwich I've ever had again. read more
