Nicholas HermanMarch 19, 2016best brunch in SF. Dinner is excellent, too. You need a car to get yourself out to Ocean Beach, though.
Brunch is first-come, and the INSANELY friendly staff have it down to a science. Treat yourself to a visit 🍳🍸💯
KylieAugust 26, 2014The brunch certainly lived up to it's hype (and was worth the wait - expect ~1 hour). Beautiful wood-covered place. From what I hear, the dinner is nothing to write home about.
Stephanie LOctober 18, 2014Leave your name down and then take a walk or a bike ride on the beach. Killer ingredients make for killer food and drinks.- Jose PalomaresAugust 27, 2016Dutch pancake is better in its sweet version, but savory is good too. Eggs in jail is still the winner!
Phoebe CSeptember 15, 2013Make a reservation for dinner. You can open a tab and order the lemon apple cider and cozy up with the blankets provided by the restaurant while you wait.
Craig VillamorJuly 5, 2015Good Bloody Mary, eggs in jail. They take coffee seriously (Chemex) & I appreciate that.
Laurea de OcampoJune 30, 2017Go on a weekday. Delicious & beautiful food a few blocks from the beach 😎
Florence WongAugust 7, 2016Potato dumplings were really amazing!! Architecture was also really cool -- is pretty pricey, good for special occasions.
John DohertyNovember 2, 2014Love this place. The seafood is always on point. Cocktails are delicious. My favorite restaurant in SF so far.
MK McKenzieJanuary 6, 2019Bread, olives, dessert, atmosphere, service all excellent for dinner. Skip the shrimp tempura.
Prakash NairAugust 25, 2016One of the top 3 best pancakes I have had. My second favorite brunch spot after Zazie.
jennifer hanJuly 26, 2011one of my favorite spots in sf. i love the eggs in jail and the dutch pancake. service is so sweet, especially the guy with long curly hair. so adorable that i just wanted to hug him.
Kris Vera-PhillipsJanuary 5, 2013Try the grilled cheese with bacon - #kvpinmybelly : Amazing cheese over crusty bread. Had kitchen add bacon. Also, the Yukon potato soup w/ bacon oil was yummy!
Outerlands SfSeptember 18, 2015Now open 7 days, and serving breakfast M-F as well as weekend brunch!
Tony CMay 5, 2017The bread was amazing, the lamb was a bit too heavy (And salty). This seems like it could be a pretentious place, but the wait staff were all very nice and far from pretentious.
Recipe for success: Put your name in, get coffee at Trouble, walk to the beach. Upon return, if you got marked as a "no show" just tell 'em and you'll be first in line!- Dor LeviJune 18, 2015A week later and I am still dreaming of the dutch pancake... the Ricotta was excellent as well.
James RichardNovember 3, 2013Great brunch and friendly service. Try to get there by 9:15 to put your name on the wait list though.
Kelly 🍰June 23, 2014Their bread is fantastic: chewy on the inside, crusty in the outside, and used in their sandwiches and eggs-in-jail.
MegDecember 21, 2013Delightful & unique fresh food. Wonderfully friendly staff. I will definitely return with my family and friends.
Ting SNovember 5, 2015Fresh feeling brunch place to go. Egg in the jail is great. Their bread itself is excellent.
On Sunday, go there before it opens, put your name down and walk over to trouble coffee next door to get your morning brew.
Tim BradshawMay 16, 2015Rice porridge is warming and amazing, especially good paired with the excellent Bloody Mary
Oleg ZhogloSeptember 13, 2014Add your name to the list then walk down to the beach, no need to stand around and wait.
- Patrick KiernanJuly 15, 2013Had brunch here. Open fried egg sandwich was delicious. Long wait for table though, would recommend booking ahead.
Bridget MMarch 10, 2013Long wait on Saturday, but grab a beer and sit in the parklet and time will fly. Grilled cheese and beef curry sandwich are excellent choices.
Veronica L.November 17, 2013Two and a half hours later, we finally got seated. Tip: go to trouble coffee while you wait and get the cinnamon toast to prevent yourself from getting hangry
Lyndsey JadeDecember 13, 2011Delicious, a wee bit expensive, and lovely wood walled interior. Expect to wait a while for brunch, but the Dinner wait, even on Friday or Saturday, is not long.
Get the apple cider w/bourbon while you wait...be sure to try the homemade bread and butter...and save room for dessert!
Renee BudakJuly 10, 2015The brunch was delicious. They have outside seating, so you can bring your dog if you want to.
Blair Hanley FrankFebruary 1, 2017Be prepared for a long wait if you come for brunch. The eggs-in-jail are worth it, though.
George YiuJuly 4, 2016love the decor, don't expect the Dutch pancake to be very sweet - all the sugar comes from the fruit
Totally thought this was a rave on a drunken night. Came in ready to pop some molly, left with a Dutch pancake in my belly.
F TNovember 18, 2012Slow cooked eggs with grit is yummy! Very light and flavorful. Dutch pancake with fig is to die for.
Tiffany TaylorNovember 12, 2014That fry bread though. So amazing! If something is on the menu with fry bread, order it!
Grace S.May 17, 2015I liked the open faced sandwiches (asparagus mushroom) better than the eggs in jail!- Get the Dutch pancake filled with a salad and topped with a poached egg. Add bacon if your eyes are bigger than your stomach.
Jon NarongSeptember 27, 2014Put name on list. Pass out from hunger. When you come to, your table might be ready.
Claire SchlessingerMarch 30, 2016Caramels are the best things I've ever eaten. Crackly sugar and a mouthful of vanilla.

"Fantastic Asian leaning new American from the State Bird team, now with a Michelin star but still low key. Loved the lamb tartare, rabbit cavatelli, squid ink pasta, and clams. Really, everything."
Noah Weiss - 8.0
"You absolutely HAVE to try the chicken. Juicy, perfectly cooked, tasty and with the finishing touch of the crispy skin making it perfect. Assured to be among the greatest chickens you'll have."
