Chicken Meatball banh mi is the best! Affordable sandwiches. Cash is preferred otherwise .50 added fee if you use a credit card. Place is small but cute and cozy.

Good spot for a quick breakfast bite. I had the Vietnamese coffee and a turkey+cheese+egg croissant. Coffee was good and not too sweet. Croissant was on the small side, which is why I'm giving this place a 4/5. Service was friendly. Cash preferred, but 50 cent charge for card. Next time I'm in SF, I'll come back.

This place is absolutely fantastic for the price! I’ve been staying nearby for a while and honestly, I wish I had discovered it sooner. It’s a small, cozy spot with a really welcoming vibe, perfect for a quick bite or a casual sit-down. The service is super fast and the staff are incredibly friendly and attentive—they make you feel right at home the second you walk in. The food is fresh, flavorful, and a great value—you get way more than what you’d expect at this price point. Everything was prepared with care, and you can tell they take pride in what they do. It might be a smaller place, but it’s full of character and totally worth checking out. I absolutely loved my experience here and will definitely be back again. Whether you’re just passing through or live in the area, this place is a must-try. Don’t sleep on it!

Great service and lovely atmosphere. I had a standard Bacon/egg/cheese bagel and it was great. When I pulled apart the bagel I got a nice cheese pull which impressed me honestly. My partner got a bbq pork banh mi sandwich and enjoyed his choice. I didn't get a photo of that because he inhaled it My partner got a Vietnamese iced coffee-- it was really great. Wish I had ordered one too. We went here because the other breakfast place we had been visiting down the street was closed on Sunday and I'm glad we got the chance to try them. The front of the register is covered in thank you letters and art from his kids which is very cute.

Good food, cheap prices. The place is small but is worth trying if you want a quick breakfast before starting your day

This is truly an amazing place. I ordered the matcha and an egg, cheese, bacon, with avocado on croissant. The service was fast and the matcha was truly heavenly. I loved the sandwich and the atmosphere felt like something out of a movie. This is a gem and I wish them nothing but success. Again, the matcha latte is something out of this world. 10/10

Great little cafe spot! If I was a local, I’d be coming here more often over your big Starbucks. As we are from London visiting, we love to find these smaller but amazing local businesses. Bacon, egg & cheese bagel hit well in the morning with a chai latte.
