Stephanie RobeskyAugust 10, 2013Has a cute covered terrace in the front where the windows open up for a breeze. Full bar and they actually make cocktails. Happy hour specials. Plus breakfast? Win!
Mike DoriaAugust 13, 2014You're in Castro -- you'll definitely want a mouthful mister! Try one if the burgers on the menu. Or, if you're trying to cut back on Cal - try his lightweight brother Caesar Salad.
V CJune 24, 2012The drinks and food are great! Cute place, friendly staff, oh and the owners niece is just wonderful! I would rate Fork Cafe 8-10
Harry MyhreJanuary 3, 2014you can bring your well behaved dog into the patio area. Food here is great, and the folks are friendly.
Milton MOctober 27, 2012I had the BLTA and it was wonderful. Friendly staff and the owner was a doll, a definite recommendation.
Marcus BertrandApril 22, 2012If you want a delicious, hearty burger get the SF Original with garlic fries. Also, their salads are ginormous!
Pretty decent Cobb salad here! Really friendly service...take a to go menu and order while you're on your way home.
Food is tasty...service was great. The owner is very friendly. Good place to eat.
Anthony LaugheedApril 21, 2012I thought the portions were great! I had the Live & Haight Cobb salad.... Delicious!
3 things I like about Fork Cafe: Sasha, Fork-it Salad, and Hashbrowns. But the awful slow/dark rock music needs to go. Too dreary in there.
Mauro BitencourtMay 24, 2012Excellent food, the portions are huge, you'll understand why you need fork. Fair priced.
- The salad was way better than the burger. I'd prefer cheaper and smaller portion though.... Huge and $11.
Had a burger with garlic fries. Don't kiss anyone after but the fries were good! Burger was better than average. Seems there not charging for the sides anymore.
Robert ZampettiApril 9, 2012If possible, claim your table first before going to the counter to put in your order...
Stephen HarpsterApril 15, 2012Good, but needs some fine tuning. Service tries, but needs more training. Give it a few months to work the kinks out.- I've had the grilled cheese and soup. It was good but portion size was Small for the price $10
I really want to like this place. Too expensive. Don't order any drinks. Get the water. 3.50 for a shot glass of oj? Lower your prices, Fork- kevin sawyersAugust 21, 2012most of the food i've had was gross and there is ALWAYS, ALWAYS something wrong with the order. service is mediocre on the best day
Michael DeLongMay 27, 2012For the price, the food and service (which is counter only) are mediocre. Depressing atmosphere.
Karen AmaralAugust 3, 2012Avoid, won't be going back. Another Castro restaurant failure. Pity the tourist.
Angus BAugust 18, 2012Food is average but the owner/manager is a rude asshole. The comfort of the guests is not his concern

"The bartenders do a great job. I'm partial to Big Daddy brew and they always poor with a smile. Great group to chat with but keep in mind most are men on a mission! Have fun!"
