    Dubai pancake
    Pamela L.

    I started coming to this restaurant when it first opened (around 1990) because of the muffin tops, menu selections, complimentary mini size bakery basket and food quality being consistently good. When the area developed (high rise apartments and Oracle Park) parking became insane. The restaurant and area lost its charm, so I stopped coming. So when I happened to be in this neighborhood, I decided to try the restaurant and see what changes were made. The only difference inside of the restaurant is that the bakery area is now replaced with a bar. The small pastry display looked pitiful. The pastries didn't look appealing - muffins were below the cup line topped with sugar sprinkles and the slices of cake look like it was just sitting there. Other than that, the decor looked the same. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I was greeted by a friendly server and sat at a table with complete views of the bay.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Food was served temperature hot with a smile. Server came frequent to see how I was doing and if I needed anything. The Dubai chocolate pancake was absolutely delcious. It looks awfully sweet but it wasn't. The pancakes were fluffy with nice brown bottoms. Presentation was awesome. I definitely would order this again. The chicken fried steak was good but needed more gravy. The server bought me a bowl of gravy and once I had that, it was more delicious. The gravy was homemade, creamy with bits of sausage. The over easy eggs were cooked perfectly - not too runny nor hard. The hash browns were the best I had for a long time - it wasn't greasy and was crispy as I like it (I did ask for crispy hash browns) - not overcooked or dry. The muffin was too floury and dense for me. It was not what I remembered it to be - fluffy, soft insides with a semi crispy outside. Overall, if you are in this neighborhood, give the restaurant a try. The food is just as good as I remembered it 15 plus years ago but I would definitely would not recommend the bakery goods.

    Sunday at 1pm expect a wait

    Townsend is one of my few go-to's. They have a reliable brunch with great options. Everyone I take here loves it; every dish is great. The food always comes out quickly, and the servers are on their A-game. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There are a lot of tables inside and a few outside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The theme is the Giants. Cool spot[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Great small local brunch spot! Never heard of it but stopped by after a 5k run. Had to wait about 30-40 minutes on a weekend but not bad cause the area is great for waiting if the weather is nice. The portions are HUGE and I got the chicken fried steak. It was SO SO SO delicious and tender, typically I only eat about half of brunch plates but I ate the whole thing. The hash browns were also very delicious. Prices aren't bad either! I need to come back again.

    Eggs Benedict with bacon and avocado
    Apryl P.

    Food was ok, the hollandaise on my eggs Benedict was cold and congealed-very disappointing. Hashbrowns were completely burnt on the bottom so I was only able to scrape off the top layer. The bacon was chopped up into tiny pieces making a very chewy consistency, I prefer crispy. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Service was ok, but it was so loud in the restaurant.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Waitress asked if I wanted a 2nd mimosa, I said no thank you and she brought one anyway. Very convenient location before the game. Probably won't be back.

    Restaurant is under the apartments

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Basic breakfast spot with a beautiful location.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]My husband ordered food and I just wanted a coffee while sitting outside enjoying the nice weather, view and crisp air.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Waitress said the cappuccino was very good, so I ordered one thinking let's keep this morning simple. The coffee was not only awful but cold. Big disappointment didn't even have the energy to complain or ask for another one.

    Montecristo Waffle
    Andrew R.

    Came here for brunch before a Giants game with a pretty big group. The service was speedy, and I really appreciate that they bring out everyone's food around the same time. I got the montecristo waffle and a mango mimosa. The food was alright, in line with your typical diner food. The chicken and potatoes were blander than I had hoped, and the jam really didn't help the dish and was kinda just thrown on in a big glob - I would ask for no jam if I got this again. Overall a solid spot if you're trying to eat before the game, but I wouldn't really recommend it otherwise.

    Came here on a Saturday morning before a day in SF. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Got to sit outside where they have a few outdoor tables.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The service was great and the food was solid. Got an omelette plate and it was tasty. The hash browns were crispy and got sourdough toast for the combo. All the food was solid and the service was quick.

    GLS Sparkling Wine ($10)
    Elena N.

    Date: Sunday, June 8th, 2025 Time: 10am Party of: 3 Meal: Breakfast / Brunch Reservation Made: via Yelp about 2.5 weeks prior *GLS Sparkling Wine ($10) x2 *Granola & Yogurt ($12) *Side Bacon ($5) *Ale Battered Fish And Chips ($18) *Chicken Cobb Salad ($18) The hubby and I were going to a Giants game with a friend of mine. We wanted to make it for the promo item, so we decided to meet up for brunch first. We got here right on time and waited about 5 mins for our table. I wanted some veg, so got the salad. It had a good amount of toppings, tho I did ask for them to put the blue cheese on the side and they did not. I didn't mind, but I was sharing the salad with the hubs and he doesn't like blue cheese. That was the only bummer. Otherwise they gave it to me with ranch on the side like I asked. Close enough to the park to have a meal and walk over. REVIEW #3785

    Combo breakfast
    Nishtha C.

    Went for a sunday brunch. I got the orange juice, which was definitely freshly squeezed and husband got the peruvian latte, which was also amazing. I got the combo for breakfast with waffle. The waffle was way too salty for my taste but everything else was quite good. Husband got crab cake benedict, which he enjoyed a lot but didn't like the house potatoes as much coz they were very unevenly good. Overall a good experience with some flaws.

    Dubai fruit cup. So delicious
    Tracy B.

    Wow!! How did i not know this place was here. I can't tell you how many times I've walked pass this place when having my daily morning walk along the Embarcadero. My husband and I came here to try some breakfast and boy was it good. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We sat outside since it was a beautiful day out.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The service was great too. I got your traditional breakfast and my husband went for something healthy. Everything was delicious and I look forward to coming back and trying their lunch.

    Asked for crispy welcome hash-brown and got it  exactly as i wanted. Yum
    Neelab S.

    Went to this place on our morning city stroll. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Love the location! Very neat place.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We were seated immediately and it was busy. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Loved early morning giggle and chatters and the customers.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] There is a fresh juice bar with veggies and fruits meaning their juice is truly fresh squeezed. Our server was awesome. My husband and I were speaking in our manager and she picked on a few words. A very friendly person and awesome hostess. Kept checking on us. The food was yummy and portions are big. I couldn't finish my breakfast. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was a very welcoming and friendly environment.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Planning to take my kids here soon.

    Impossible Burger
    Chloe' A.

    My party and I were seated quickly. Service took alittle longer than usual due to a large work lunch party taking place. Menu is large and even has options for vegetarians. Server was kind and kept making sure we had what we needed. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Clean environment, cheerful atmosphere and kind service.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Prices can be a bit steep but it is San Francisco.

    Veggie omelette
    Ria B.

    Little did I know this was gonna be one of the best acai bowls in the city! There ample amount of fruits granola and peanut butter and the acai was not blended with other additives just to stretch it out. And the whole thing was around $12! Which is such a steal! Veggie omelette was also solid, well salted and over flowing delicious cooked veggies! Service took a while but it was a Saturday morning so you're not expecting it to be fast. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's right next to Embarcadero, beautiful location.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Good amount of seating inside too![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Do you need a reservation for Sundays? If none are available, should we find another spot or do you have bar seating or other options?

    Our kitchen closes at 2 PM, as long as you place your order before 2 you should be fine.

    Do you offer vegan options?

    Yes of course. Many options.

    Looks like just about the same name but new owners? I was obsessed with the previous place... so big shoes to fill. Do you do veggie sausage or veggie bacon? 🙏🏽

The martinis are excellent, the burger is one of the best in San Francisco, the steak tartare is always a must-order, and the popovers absolutely live up to the hype. What really made this visit stand out, though, was our server, David M. He was warm, polished, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. He anticipated what we needed without hovering and struck that perfect balance of professionalism and personality that makes you feel truly taken care of. Excellent food, a beautiful new dining room, and service that reminds you why hospitality matters. I'll absolutely be back, and hope to sit in David M.'s section again.

Unfortunately, our experience this time was completely different, and the overall vibe of the restaurant seems to have changed. We had a reservation for four on a Saturday evening. When we arrived, we were told we could have a table inside, but only for an hour and a half. We agreed because sitting outside along a busy street with buses, trucks, and traffic going by wasn't particularly appealing. The service was okay and our food came out fairly quickly, but throughout the meal we had the distinct feeling that they were trying to move us along. No one checked to see if I wanted another drink, and what really bothered us was that the check was brought to the table without anyone asking if we wanted dessert, coffee, or another round of drinks. We were still within the 90-minute time limit they had given us, so there was no obvious reason for the rush. I may or may not have ordered dessert, but I would have liked the opportunity to look at the dessert menu and decide. Being handed the check without even being offered dessert made us feel less like guests and more like a table they wanted to turn over as quickly as possible. What made this especially disappointing was remembering how much we enjoyed Wayfare Tavern the first time. We specifically chose to come back because of that experience, but this visit felt much more transactional and rushed. For a restaurant at this price point, I expect to be able to relax and enjoy dinner rather than feel like I'm on a countdown. Sadly, I don't think we'll be returning.

I confirmed the reservation twice, once online and then they called me 30 minutes prior to confirm again. Unfortunately, I do think they gave away part of our sections seating because even though my entire party arrived on time, they could not seat us until 30 minutes after our reservation time. They did however compensate us with some appetizers which was appreciated. Overall, it is difficult to serve such a large party so I give them credit but it was a bit chaotic, not taking everyone's drink order, not bringing silverware with meals, etc. For the most part, they were able to bring out everyone's main meal at the same time, and the food is fairly good. Everyone seemed to enjoy their mains, but I would say it's pretty standard for Mexican. The drinks are excellent though, I got the coconut rum drink. We also brought a cake which they placed a large sparkler candle in which was fun! The ambiance on the inside is nice low lighting with an open kitchen, so visually very nice! Overall it was good and the staff were nice but I wouldn't be motivated to come back here any time soon.

We all ordered slim plates, which is a nice option, as the provide lighter meals for a lower price. For $14.50 I got Prime Rib (I think they call it round steak), mashed potatoes, a salad, a roll, and a side of beans. They offer a wide range of other options, including rotating nighttly specials. The guys at the counter are awesome, and are eager to serve you up a tasty plate, just how you want it! Everything is perfectly serviceable. Drinks are available on the other side of the room, and they have a great selection of beer and liquor (and I expect wines as well). I had a Ukrainian beer with my steak, and it hit the spot! Service at the bar is also quite good. I didn't have an Irish Coffee, since they didn't have fresh coffee made and we were in a bit of a time crunch, but I recall those being a treat as well. Huge helpings of tasty food at a reasonable price, and service with a smile makes this a heartwarming bit of San Francisco's classic dining. Give them a try for food, or just come in and have a drink - folks around here seem to be friendlier than most - maybe it's just getting good food at a great price!
