If I had a dollar for every time I ordered from here….I’d be very rich! The food is delicious with generous portions. Prior to going to Lavash I never really tried Persian food, but it’s now become one of my favorite cuisines. The dine in experience ...
Lavash - San Fransisco's Persian Restaurant
Lou’s Cafe has had my heart for about ten years now. The Roma Club is my favorite sandwich in the city, but all the sandwiches are excellent. The Dutch crunch bread and jalapeño spread are drool worthy.
Lou's Cafe
One of the most consistent and well priced milk tea spots I’ve tried in San Francisco. I’m addicted to the White Gourd Milk tea, which is creamy and only a little sweet (pun intended).
Little Sweet
One of my neighborhood favorites. It has a cozy, warm and intimate vibe. The thin and crispy, yet soft crust slices are delicious. I love the variety of options that change season to season. The cheese salad is a highlight for me, the Brie and nuts a...
Pizzetta 211
I love the atmosphere of this sushi spot. The staff is super nice, and the food is super fresh. It’s a great place to bring visitors, parents or for a date.

I love the lively location and vibe of this cafe. The seasonal lattes are creative and overall just super tasty. When I’m in the neighborhood I always try to stop by for a little treat!
Compton’s Coffee House
My go to spot when I’m craving a burrito. Consistently delicious with generous portions and really kind staff. The breakfast burritos are a must try!
Cielito Lindo - 3440 Balboa St, San Francisco, California

I love and frequent this coffee shop often. There’s a great variety of fun lattes (Birthday Cake and Coconut being my favorites). Home has a few locations but the Clement Street shop is bright, cute and has plenty of seating. The staff is always real...

Yes this is quite a basic choice but Blue Barn always delivers for me. It’s simple but the salad and fries are always a hit. The truffle aioli and the tacos are also randomly really good.
Blue Barn Cole Valley
Casual and speed service. I absolutely love the bowls and broth. Dragoneats is also super affordable which is always a plus.

This was one of my favorite lunches pre covid. I love to get delivery now as a treat. The vermicelli is delicious and the portions are pretty generous too!
Tín Vietnamese Cuisine - San Francisco
Super Duper is my fool proof burger spot. Consistent, a few locations around the city, and good value. Also very tasty!
