    hot ube Latte and iced thai tea
    Isabelle R.

    We got the ube latte and iced Thai tea. The ube latte was nutty and delicious. I just wish it had been a tad bit hotter, but I'm sure you can ask for it extra hot. The iced Thai tea was well-balanced and not overwhelmingly sweet. The chicken waffle was also good--especially the chicken itself. It was lightly battered and crisp to perfection. I do wish the waffle was more toasted since it was a bit soggy even with barely any syrup. The fruits were fresh and tasted really yummy. As for the PaNang omelette, it was delicious!! It's filled with meat and vegetables, so it's pretty hearty. The curry was so good and had just the right amount of spice. I would highly recommend the PaNang omelette. Parking was difficult since it's in the Tenderloin, but it was definitely worth it. The workers are nice, and the place is really cute.

    Came here for brunch due to Yelp good reviews and cute photos. It's a popular place and the place is tiny. However, our timing was perfect as we didn't have to wait for a table though the place is almost full. And I have to say, it didn't disappoint! It wasn't just a cutesy place with cute and Instagram worthy drinks but really flavorful meals, delicious drinks, reasonably priced,with nice and friendly staff. The food came quickly too. Would probably be back next time we're in the area!

    Cappuccino
    May L.

    Delicious! Love that the Thai culture has fully embraced brunch and all these fusion brunch spots are popping up in the Bay Area. Came here for brunch with my girl and Lapisara did not disappoint. My cappuccino was delicious, strong, great foam ratio. Her ube latte was not overly sweet and good flavor. (Of course the cute cups were an added bonus). I ordered the panang beef omelette without the toast and it was so good! Flavorful, tender beef, egg was not over cooked and when you broke into the omelette the delicious curry started pouring out. Salad was fresh and potatoes crispy on the outside and creamy in the middle. My fried had the crab omelette which was also very good! Excited to come back and support this place, all their items look so delicious. Inside was very cute and modern, ample seating and very friendly staff.

    Iced UBE Latte

    Super cute cafe that's been in my bookmarks for over a year! Finally, we dined here on a weekday at around noon. Even found a parking spot right outside after circling once around the block. Thankfully, it wasn't crowded and there were a few tables available. I believe weekdays are less crowded. ***OUR PICKS*** CHICKEN WAFFLE ~ Their fried chicken is more crunchy and possibly done with mochiko flour. It has that texture verses fried chicken made with all purpose flour. Chicken was juicy and tender. Waffle was fluffy but not crispy. Nonetheless, it was enjoyable. The berries surrounding the waffle were nice and sweet. Portion is a bit smaller than the other dishes that we ordered. 4/5 FRIED CHICKEN EGGS BENEDICT ~ eggs perfectly oozy and delicious with the sauce! Crunchy chicken was good too! I only wished the potatoes had a crisp exterior. Still a yummy dish! 5/5 PERFECT PANCAKES ~ soft and fluffy pancakes with eggs over medium with chicken maple sausage. I didn't try this, but the person eating this was satisfied with it. 4.5/5 ICED UBE LATTE ~ really cute purple teddy bear ice cube sitting on a cloud of whipped cream and a daisy flower atop of lightly sweetened ube latte. Good till the last drop. Lovely and adorable! The bear stole my heart! 5/5 Wonderful service, delicious food, beautiful presentation, lovely atmosphere! Definitely a winner, in my book!

    Crab meat fried rice, Pad Thai, Tuna Tartare, Cucumber salad, and Seasonal green vegetables

    After a late flight into San Francisco, we arrived at Lapisara Eatery for our 8:30 pm reservation just as the kitchen was preparing to close in about 30 minutes. Even so, our server was incredibly welcoming and assured us that we could relax and enjoy our evening as long as we wanted -- we just needed to place our food order before the kitchen closed. The food was absolutely delicious, especially the pad thai and tuna tartare. Every dish was flavorful and beautifully prepared. What really made the evening special, though, was the outstanding service. Our server was warm, engaging, and genuinely attentive throughout the meal. When he learned that one of our friends was celebrating a birthday, he surprised us with a lovely ice cream and chocolate dessert complete with candles. It was such a thoughtful touch and the perfect ending to a wonderful evening -- great food, exceptional hospitality, and a memorable experience all around. We will definitely be back!

    Fried chicken benedict
    Jolene H.

    The food here was so good: the fried chicken benedict was nicely portioned, the fry wasn't too oily, and for some reason the salad dressing paired so well. The iced bear in the ube latte was really cute and overall the drink was light and sweet. However the Thai tea was overly sweet. I only tried a small bite of the tom yum burrito -- this was my first trying fish sauce in a burrito and I would definitely try this in the future! It took a while to get seated even though the restaurant didn't seem too full for Saturday brunch. The tables are very comfy and service is attentive though! I wouldn't try parking around here, try to take public transit if you can help it

    Iced UBE Latte
    Lillian Z.

    Came for a weekday brunch and was seated right away. The staff was super friendly and the there were so many creative options for thai-fusion dishes. The iced ube latte had such a rich, earthy ube taste (and the bear ice cube was so cute!!). The tom yum burrito was also incredible, and a squeeze of lime tied all the wonderful flavours together.

    Came here after seeing it was on Yelp's top 100 and was staying a few blocks over at The Westin. The little bear ice cube in the Ube drink was cute. The food is a fusion of Thai and breakfast foods. We had the Sweet Dreams waffle with Nutella, it was kind of soggy from the ice cream they could have put the ice cream in a separate cup. I also didn't like how the dirty outside of the butter wrapper was touching the toast. I had the crab egg Benedict and it was just ok. Would have been better as a crispy crab cake than cold crab on not toasted egg muffin with a bunch of salad I didn't eat. I think I'm spoiled from the breakfast places in the South Bay so this didn't seem like anything special. The place was also super small and was crammed next to the table next to me. The service was good tho I did over tip and the total came to $120 for 2 people so this place is also not cheap.

    Food was amazing!! Too many of us to mention everything we ordered. We shared to do a taste test and nothing disappointed.

    Breakfast of brunch...this is the place. Great food. Good coffee. And the cocktails my fave is the "it was a good day"! Must eat here.

    Pineapple Fried Rice
    Laasya R.

    Stumbled up on this place while hungry and frantically searching for good places in SF . Ambience is cute, service is fast. Loved the Thai fusion menu. Many items on the menu caught my eye. I had the mocha, hot ube tea as well. It was served in a cute but difficult to drink cup . Tasted great, loved the ube sugar on top. We ordered chilli bomb omelette and garden eggs Benedict. I wish they had option to customise the menu to be veg . Like we wanted the Tom yum burrito without the meat but they couldn't do that. Parking is a nightmare but glad we came here on a weekday and avoided the weekend crowds.

    Came here on a Fri morning for a late brunch (10:30 am) - I was staying in Union Square for a work conference and opted to take my out-of-town co-worker to an "Asian fusion" brunch, which seems to be a specialty in California. LOGISTICS If you're staying at a hotel in Union Square, this is a fairly short walk from the area via Post St... it wasn't too sketchy in the daytime. Just be advised not to overshoot or you may end up wandering into the Tenderloin neighborhood, which I don't advise for tourists. Regardless, it's a cute corner restaurant that gets a lot of natural lighting from the windows. Modern decor with airy vibes. We were able to get in without reservations on a Friday morning, but I imagine on weekends it might get crowded so expect a wait or make reservations in advanced by calling or using their email form on the website. FOOD Ube Latte ($6) - Points for presentation - this was served in a glass bear cup. I could taste the sweet potato flavor, so it was a nice morning pick me up to start the day. Whipped cream made it extra decadent. Tom Yum Burrito ($24) - Fusion burritos are popular in the Bay Area, and this one hits the spot. I like how it was super flavorful from the Tom Yum paste mixed in the rice and had quite a bit of protein between the mushrooms, egg, and chicken. They serve it hot so be advised not to burn your tongue when trying to devour it. The tortilla chips they served were also quite good! My only wish was that it came with a better salsa... the tomato based salsa they provided was just OK, but there could have been something more creative done. OVERALL Service was quick and efficient as we were able to order, get our food, and be out in within an hour on a Friday morning. For those on business travel, they're only willing to split checks between two cards. Food is expensive... but comparable to pricing for similar brunch experiences in the Bay Area. I get a little sad knowing I paid $24 for a burrito in CA, but at least it was an interesting one! Portion wise I felt it was generous and even got the other half to go... which I was able to enjoy on a beach later that day. Since it was so flavorful to begin with, it held up!

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.

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.
