    The weekend-only chicken and waffles is easily the best I've had anywhere. The spicy fried chicken and perfectly thin and chewy waffle dipped in bacon maple syrup is amazing.

    One of the most over-the-top fried chicken sandwiches I've experienced, in the best possible way. If you're not feeling a pile of fried meat, their vegetarian sandwiches are surprisingly delicious.

    Their fried chicken sandwich is super amazing, also super big. Katsu sandwich and fried fish sandwich are also really yum. They have brunch menu on the weekends with fried chicken and waffle 😊

    Rhea's Cafe now serves breakfast sandwiches every morning, from 9-11 am. One of them has waffle fries on it, and all of them come with free coffee. Read more

    For a slightly healthy alternative, try their Cesar salad drenched lightly with a very creamy lemon dressing and substitute it with their fantastic fried chicken!

    Another great lunch treat is their Dolores St sandwich. It is a turkey and bacon sandwich smothered with spicy cranberry sauce to give you that extra kick!

    The fried chicken or pork sandwich is amazing. Huge portion, eat half if you don't want to hate yourself afterwards :) quiet and friendly servers.

    Great place to have lunch. Burgers looked really yummy but their mixed green salad is equally delicious especially if you add fried chicken or katsu.

    The double-decker panko fried chicken katsu sammich is one if the best $10 you'll ever spend on lunch. Comes with side salad of your choice. Be careful, even the medium spicy is very spicy.

    Rhea's has my favorite vegetarian sandwiches in the city: lots of choice, all scrumptious. At the cafe, you get sides! The mixed greens are delicious.

    Anything with fried chicken! It has a secret red dusting of spices under the crust. Never bland here. (Pro tip: you can get it on top of a salad)

    The food here is pretty good. It's just a shame I seriously can't go 30 seconds in this place without hearing a buzzword-laden conversation about some new tech start-up. Jesus, people. Take a break.

    Try their roasted chicken salad sandwich. It comes with candied walnuts so it's both creamy and sweet.

    The fried chicken sandwich is very good, but it sells out quickly when offered. Even the chef prefers the buttermilk to the panko version.

    Check out and try their buttermilk fried chicken sandwich. The side of cole slaw can be quite spicy.

    The buttermilk fried chicken sandwich is amazing. The chicken has a spicy rub under the batter.

    Food is excellent but they need that guy from restaurant impossible to come tell them how to hire more people for the weekend and whip them into shape.

    Make sure you can take all the heat when they ask you how spicy you want your katsu sandwich. I'm warning you. :)

    The toast was the cheapest toast ever not even toasted. The waffle fries were cold and my bacon was made yesterday. Freshest thing on my plate was my eggs! Never again.
