    Mocha and turkey cheese croissant
    Ed D.

    Service is fast which is good because there was a long line. I got their mocha which is pretty sweet and you can taste the good amount of milk foam which I like. I also got their turkey egg croissant which was already made and heated so I got my food very fast which was a much needed surprise since I needed to catch my flight home. The sandwich itself was pretty big so it does fill you up for the morning. Prices were higher but it's expected at the airport

    Cuban panini sandwich. Turkey, ham, cheese, aoili, sliced pickle on a roll.  Pressed and warm Prepackaged, from a deli.

    This is for the location at the international terminal. Judging from the photos here, and the map, there are two locations. The place is fairly small and more geared to people on the go as opposed to stay around and munch/sip. It was afternoon and a light crowd. I got a Cuban sandwich panini with a 16oz latte. The sandwich, warmed, was just OK. One of those prepacked deals that left something to be desired but did take away the pang for something to eat. I asked for mustard which came in packets but it was old and stale, like a brick when it came out. The coffee however was very good. I was surprised by the quality. The woman serving at the counter was friendly and took her time preparing the drink, and did a good job. Overall the experience was just OK and expensive. But, what one would expect at an airport with limited options, even at SFO.

    I keep coming back here when I need quick and reliable airport food. It's dependable. Service is quick and friendly enough. I enjoy their lattes and breakfast sandwiches. It's grab-and-go and still it's cheesy and warm and comforting.

    Breakfast sandwich + smoothie

    As everyone knows, it is not cheap to eat in the airport, so we'll just get that out of the way first. I got to the airport early for my flight so I walked the restaurants of terminal 3 and found Green Beans to be the best choice for what I was looking for. I got a breakfast sandwich, a latte, a smoothie, and an apple fritter. I was able to get through just before the rush, which I know can affect people's experience. I found the staff to be polite and hard working. The breakfast sandwich was delicious, just everything I needed. I really enjoyed my smoothie but it was $11 for a small glass bottle so I am not sure I would recommend unless you just really want one like I did. Standard latte, nothing special but all the same enjoyable. The apple fritter is huge and delicious, you should definitely get one while you're there. I ate half and took the other half home on my flight - around 6 hours later I gave my partner the other half and it was still super fresh. All in all, I spent $40 for all of my food. I think it is definitely worth a stop.

    Apple cider drink

    Got quick drinks at the SFO airport: matcha latte which was on the sweet side and apple cider drink which is usually clear but was cloudy possibly had some milk? Also too sweet. That said the line was long so the service was a bit disorganized but the store was convenient. Overall would prefer another option.

    Breakfast

    I landed at SFO for a girl's weekend about an hour and half before any of the rest of my group so I found myself in need of a decent coffee and some breakfast. Initially I was hopeful to find a Starbucks because I think they are in general a safe bet when travelling but once I realized the Starbucks was located outside of security I went back to meandering the halls of this airport to find something to eat. Enter Green Beans Coffee. The line was long, but this place looked local and I thought it might be worth a shot. After all they had breakfast sandwiches and iced coffee so it had to be okay. Sadly this was probably the most disappointing breakfast sandwich and iced coffee I've had. My standards are always a bit lower at an airport, but when you're paying an arm and a leg, and waiting in a long line, you kind of expect it to be as good as a fast food restaurant. The breakfast sandwich was flavorless, and the coffee was slightly below average, though drinkable. I have to watch my caffeine intake right now so knowing I blew my one coffee that day on something below average made me a bit extra salty. The only saving grace here was that the woman working the pastry case at this location was probably the nicest and cherriest person I have ever encountered at an airport. She gets all the stars. Overall though, I'm not sure if SFO has a better coffee/ quick breakfast option, but if they do I'd probably try somewhere different next time.

    Line moved quickly. They were friendly and well-staffed for early morning. My iced latte was smooth and easy to drink. But the chai latte tasted like coffee and was extra sweet. Maybe we got the wrong drink?! I'd probably return for a coffee but would be inclined to try another option first.

    Worst coffee ever. Tastes like bitter hot water. Spent $24 on a breakfast sandwich and this cup of sadness.

    The coffee came out relatively quick but it was very expensive (~$8) for it tasting pretty much like oat milk.

    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.

    I still love Brenda's!!!!!!!…read more I haven't been back in a few years, but I am happy to report: they are still just as great! It was my daughter's first time and she loved it just as much as I did. We came during restaurant week so we decided to get the Creole Sampler so she could try a bunch of different items. (Sampler included red beans and rice, collard greens, fried catfish, hush puppies, plain beignet and gumbo). We also ordered the beignet flight and shrimp and grits. Plenty of food for the 2 of us, plus we had left overs. I can't not order the shrimp and grits. It's just so damn good! It's so rich and flavorful! It came out SUPER hot. Grits and cheese still bubbling. My daughter and I were both surprised she liked the collard greens. She's usually not a fan. She also liked the red beans and rice and she doesn't usually like beans either. That just goes to show how amazing the food is here! We came in around 4something pm on a rainy Sunday. There weren't many people there, but by the time we left it was more than half full. Service was friendly, and there was a band playing, which was a nice touch.

Let me start with the star of the show - the Shrimp & Grits. The flavors blended so well I did a little dance in my seat. Creamy, savory and delicious! I will be dreaming about the Shrimp and Grits from now on. The Bananas Foster French Toast melted in my mouth. So yummy. I wasn't a fan of the Crawfish Beignets. It was something about the flavor of the red powder/ seasoning that left me underwhelmed. All in all, one of my favorite stops while I was in town.
