    Such a nice complimentary spot to Cafe Isabella next door! BTS (also good acronym) has a huge menu full of fresh healthy juices, smoothies and food. It's tucked away up on the hill, and parrots tend to hang out in the trees across the street. There are a few small shared tables outside, take a break in the nice weather and enjoy some healthy options! Keto, protein, and milk based options too. Happy to see this menu in the neighborhood.

    A lovely place to hang out with friends. Cozy and comfortable. Foods are very delicious Especially the signature ramen. Very rich and the portion is huge. The store manager Eric is very friendly and helpful. I do recommend this place and I will come back for sure.

    Great place to get a healthier version of food. The service was good. I enjoyed the avocado toast. It hit the spot. Great place to visit.

We shared the lamb sandwich with broccoli and the crispy chicken sandwich with kale. Both were really good. The lamb wasn't gamey at all, the bread was perfect, and the chicken was crispy and flavorful. Overall, great experience and definitely a good spot for lunch when I'm in the SF office.

Today me and my wife stopped in for lunch as we have a few times before. It was a warm day in the Bay Area today and we were out walking so I wore a nice sleeveless shirt. It was nice, new and clean. The hostess asked me to cover my shoulders but I said I didn't have anything with me. She sent the manager over. The manager told me no sleeveless shirts for men are allowed in her restaurant. Mind you this is lunch. Not dinner. This is not a super fancy place. Me and my wife were both properly and nicely dressed. I politely told her that I identify as a woman. She said it didn't matter. I said so you misspoke a moment ago and male or female cannot wear sleeveless shirts? She said correct. I looked around and there was a woman behind us wearing a sleeveless shirt. Not nearly as nice as mine or dressed as nice as me. I said ok I will wait here while you turn her away too. The manager then became very rude and said she isn't going to serve me no matter what. I told her are you sure about this and she said yes and asked me to leave. How embarrassing. I have never been turned away from any establishment in my life. Is this not discremenation due to my gender? Businesses have the right to refuse service to anyone unless it is for race, gender or age. I will be contacting an attorney this week. This is not ok. This is not right and I will stand up for my rights and the rights of others.

    My wife and I love this place and eat here frequently…read more Everything we've had here has been wonderful. Tonight we had the meatballs and a gluten-free Conrad. If you haven't tried their gluten-free pizza, I recommend giving it a shot. It is a "Detroit-style" crust and it is amazing (if you like that sort of thing). It's a mix of crunch and airiness. It's the closest thing to Portland's Boxcar Pizza, and IMHO is the best pizza in the Bay Area. Service is always good, and tonight Jordan took care of us and he did a fine job. It's a great place for a casual date or to bring the family. The place is clean, there's a chatty energy, and it seems a place where everyone is welcome.

    CORN RIBLETS! 4.3…read more North Beach, a happy, vibrant neighborhood, sits in a hilly pocket of sunshine in San Francisco. During our weekend stay, we ventured out in search of pizza. In North Beach, aka "Little Italy," pizza spots abound. We decided to give Flour + Water a try and made reservations ahead of our visit. The restaurant was bustling, lively, and packed with patrons. We ordered: Corn Riblets ~ crema, ricotta salata, cilantro, Calabrian chili. This is corn-kernel crack! Hawaiian Pizza ~ capicola, pineapple, fresh mozzarella, pickled Fresno, chili crisp. A playful twist on the traditional pineapple pizza, with the addition of Fresno chiles, which bring a fruity, smoky flavor. I especially loved the texture of the mildly spicy chili crisp. A few things that make their pizzas special: * The dough: They use naturally leavened dough made from locally sourced organic wheat. The wild yeast and beneficial bacteria ferment for at least three days, creating a crust that is light, airy, and easier to digest. * The layering process: First, a little aged Parmesan is sprinkled over the flattened dough, followed by a layer of sauce, then the toppings and cheese. The dough was good. I could taste a little more salt in their crust compared with some other pizzerias, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. It definitely enhances a pizza with lighter toppings. Service was good and efficient. As busy as they were, there wasn't much opportunity for chitchat, but everything moved along smoothly. We scored a good pizza, but even better was the discovery of the corn riblets. Those alone are worth a return visit! We'll definitely be back!

We paid for a 3-hour open bar, but before the 3 hours were even over, we were cut off from alcohol. What made the situation even worse was that we were told we had already exceeded the drink limit, but the numbers they gave us did not match what we had actually consumed. It felt misleading and completely unacceptable, particularly when we had specifically paid for an open bar package. Unfortunately, this ended up ruining what was supposed to be a special wedding celebration for our friends. We spoke with the manager Guillermo hoping the situation could be addressed, but he was not helpful and showed very little sympathy or willingness to make things right. For the amount of money we spent and the expectations that were set, this was extremely disappointing. I would not recommend this restaurant for special events or celebrations. If you are considering booking an event here, I would strongly recommend getting every detail of the package and drink policy in writing beforehand.
