    Pina Coco, Strawberry Lemonade
    Katherine W.

    Went here with friends on a Saturday afternoon and it was packed!! Luckily the line went by pretty quickly Pacific Sunrise 8.5/10 -the sauce was good! would have liked a stronger tom yum flavor though as it just tasted like a slightly more spicy hollandaise -the amount of smoked salmon was good and really complimented the flavor of the hollandaise sauce Breakfast Chorizo 9/10 -solid burrito!! I personally appreciate the amount of sour cream in the burrito and the meat and cheese were evenly distributed throughout. -the potatoes were also crispy but could use a little bit more seasoning Mascarpone Pancake 9/10 - loved this dish!! the pancakes were fluffy and of a good size. I would have liked if the mascarpone was evenly spread between the layers and not in a circle. Overall: 9.5/10! -worth the wait! service was good and food came out in a timely manner. definitely will be coming back!

    K-bomb chicken benny
    Manit D.

    Pictures looked so good, I HAD to try! Wait time was under 30 minutes. We got the K-bomb benny and the mascarpone pancakes. The pancakes were sooo fluffy and the mascarpone was so good. Pancakes had perfect level of sweetness. Probably one of the best pancakes I've had. I also got the kbomb benny which was a good savory mix. Chicken was so tasty and the eggs were great too. I've heard drinks arent that great here so did not try but service was pretty good too and restaurant is big!

    The dining room was beautifully laid out, and while the service felt a little rushed at times, it was easy to understand why. This place is clearly popular, and they do an impressive job of turning tables without sacrificing friendliness or efficiency. I'm genuinely happy to see them doing so well, though I'm not sure I'm ready to wait an hour for a table again. That said, I'd gladly come back during a less busy time to explore more of the menu.

    Fried chicken and waffles
    Elaine J.

    Had an excellent brunch in the neighborhood where we were staying. A very popular place, so expect a bit of a wait, but definitely worth it. Excellent service and very flavorful food.

    Volcano latte and mango lemonade
    Paulina T.

    This place had such a cute vibe as soon as you walked in. Lots of natural lighting and the indoor lighting was beautiful. Service was fast and friendly! The food was more than generous as far as portions and left us with a good amount of leftovers to eat for later! The chipotle Benny was flavorful and the potatoes served with them were crunchy and seasoned well. I got a chicken wrap of sorts and it was yummy but the sauce that came inside was a little too sweet for me. Fries were super good tho! As for the creme brûlée French toast, the cream drizzled on the top was amazing and paired so well with the soft and fluffy bread used! The volcano latte was such a treat as well while the mango lemonade was really refreshing. I definitely will be back on my next visit!

    Four chairs is always packed for brunch every time I drive by the mission, so it was time to give it a try. Their Asian take on brunch is quite refreshing. I ordered the K-Bomb chicken Benny and oh boy will you leave satisfied in every way. The perfectly poached eggs are served on top of a fluffy slice of bread topped with kimchi-hollandaise sauce. The chicken was a Korean style fried chicken with a crunchy sweet and spicy bbq sauce reminiscent of gochujang and honey. Home fries and green salad with sesame dressing topped it all off. The mango matcha latte was also quite good and the price for SF and for all that food was great value for the money. Ambiance is casual and a bit loud as can be expected from a brunch place but overall it is clean and a fun spot to meet friends for brunch. Don't stay too long after paying though or you will get stared at by the folks waiting in line. Overall definitely recommend checking them out. I look forward to trying other specialties here.

    I had reserved my table through Yelp, but I was pleasantly surprised when the waiter was able to seat me earlier than expected. The atmosphere was great, and both sets of patrons to my left and right were very friendly--it turned out it was the first time visiting for all of us. For my meal, I ordered the mango lemonade, the crème brûlée French toast, and the Pacific Sunrise Benedict with a side salad and fresh fruit. The mango lemonade was very refreshing and not overly sweet, and the French toast was absolutely amazing--it honestly felt like having dessert for breakfast. The only adjustment I would suggest is regarding the Benedict. In my opinion, a true English muffin would work better than the slice of brioche currently used, which felt a bit too thick and soft. An English muffin provides the right texture and crispy consistency when toasted to properly stand up to all the toppings. Overall, I pleasantly enjoyed myself and had a great experience. When I return, I look forward to trying the By the Bay Benedict and the mascarpone pancakes.

    Yum!
    Demesha J.

    Amazing! I'm actually going there for the second time today! My family arrived early, so the wait was only about five minutes before we were seated. I don't remember if there was music, but it was a busy, lively place with multiple conversations happening at once. It was definitely a cozy, home type atmosphere. A few people ordered chicken and waffles, so I had the chance to try it, and it was delicious! The waffles melted in my mouth! That's what I plan to order next time. I order a Korean chicken sandwich. It was very tasty and large. I had leftovers! I was disappointed because I forgot my leftovers on the table . Note to self: NEVER DO THAT AGAIN. The lemonade was very flavorful, and my kids enjoyed it too. I even tried an alcoholic beverage, I can't remember the name, but I swapped it for lemonade because it was THAT good. As I mentioned earlier, I will definitely return to this restaurant and highly recommend it.

    Breakfast Chorizo wrap
    Mehrnaz H.

    Got here right around 2PM on a Friday and the place was very packed!! Waited about 5min for a table for the party of 4. The interior is an updated modern setting with ample seating. We were seated and scanned the menu. Many options with Asian fusion flair to it. We ordered the K-bomb Benny, chorizo breakfast wrap and shrimp and veggie scramble. All the food was great. They have a nice selection of creative breakfast drinks. The creamy volcano coffee is very creative and delicious!! We all enjoyed the food selection. The staff is very efficient and helpful, and made us feel very comfortable. Nosy rushed, easy pace and fast service.

    We visited four chairs 10:30am on a Thursday and it was very busy but the wait was short. We ordered the Mascarpone pancakes and the Chipotle benny. The pancakes were delicious not too sweet. The chipotle benny on the other hand unfortunately came out a little cold but the flavor was there. The service was ok, we didn't get checked up on and only saw our server when they gave us our food. I really like the ambiance here it had a nice warm cafe vibe to it

    One of my favorite brunch places in SF! I am so glad I was able to come try this place. We got here at 10 and we were seated right away. They are also super super kid friendly. The staff was super nice to my crazy toddler. The food was amazing! I got the pancakes, K bomb Benedict, and salad. They were all delicious! We were so full after this meal. Can't wait to come back when we visit!

    Four Chairs was amazing for brunch! We visited on a Saturday late morning, and the wait was shorter than I had expected. The interior had a cozy vibe, with wood panelling on the walls and plenty of natural light. For drinks, I chose the Butterfly Lychee, which was beautiful and tasty. I do wish it had been a touch less sweet though! My friend also enjoyed her Volcano Coffee. For food, I ordered the K-bomb Chicken Benny and we also got the Crème Brûlée French Toast to share between the 4 of us. Both of these were incredible! I loved the texture and sticky sauce on the Korean fried chicken, and the chipotle hollandaise was so flavorful. The Crème Brûlée French Toast was decadent and delicious. The brioche was so soft and the torched vanilla custard really did taste like crème brûlée. Service was friendly and quick. Overall, we had a great experience at Four Chairs!

    Matcha Latte iced
    Aleesa G.

    Needed a quick brunch before the airport and recommend this place . Street parking was a miss unfortunately but we did find one two blocks away . Walking in well lit and good music you sign in on IPAD and they text or call you when table is ready 2-12 estimated and we got a table in 6 minutes . Liked the open kitchen concept . All the drinks ordered were delicious and just perfect sweetness . So kind of the waiter to bring to go cups for our drinks that we did not finish . The portions are generous especially if it's your first meal of the day , By the bay had juicy delicious shrimps, eggs cooked perfect, enjoyed the crispy potatoes and the salad with a nice gingery dressing . I would definitely come back to try other items on the menu.

There are a few tables outside the restaurant that are slanted on a small hill and a platform with a few tables on the street. We were seated on a table on the hill and had to be mindful of fluids/sauces filled to the brim. Blankets are also provided on each chair in case it gets breezy outside. The menu is set daily, so the dishes can vary from what's shown in previous photos. After ordering, it took over 30 minutes for our food to arrive. The summer vegetable hash comes with beans, squash, tomatoes, corn, carrots, peppers and eggs. I typically associate hash with potatoes, but surprisingly this dish does not come with potatoes. The dish was fairly mild, with most of the flavor coming from the individual vegetables. It's definitely a lighter, healthier take on hash and would be a good option if you're looking for something with more vegetables. The plow comes with eggs, lemon ricotta pancakes, potatoes and choice of meat. The lemon riccota pancakes were the star of the dish- light, fluffy and not too sweet. The potatoes were crispy. The steak + eggs was a hearty option. The steak was tender and juicy and went well with the chermoula sauce. Overall, I'm glad I got to try this restaurant at least once, but hesistant to come back because of the long wait and value of each plate.

As a disclaimer, I am a huge fan of fried chicken, so my opinion might be biased based on that factor. I love that they have a digital menu and that you can easily pay for your meal on it. We ordered family style and shared several dishes, including French Toast, Chicken & Waffles, Nasi Goreng, and 3 extra pieces of fried chicken. For the daily caffeine, I opted for a Vietnamese coffee. The verdict? Love. Everything was delicious, and I especially liked their crispy fried chicken. We both loved that the batter wasn't too heavy on the salt, and that the meat was still juicy despite being fried to a satisfying crunch. The French toast and Waffles were also delicious and buttery. Nasi goreng, on the other hand, was a bit of a letdown. Maybe my expectation was too high, but the fried rice just didn't hit the spot. Their Vietnamese coffee was also pretty mid, since I've had it much better elsewhere. These slight misses won't stop me from picking them over Plow though. I love that they have more of the menu variety that resonates with my tastebuds, and I will definitely be returning there.
