    Chicken sesame ginger salad.
    MrandMs Squirrel S.

    Very disappointed. The salad had a lot of rotten lettuce in it. It wasn't just browning. It was actually rotten. They need to find some way of fixing the quality control. I was unfortunately so hungry I don't know how much of the fort I ate before I noticed the rot. The sauce tastes good and it would have been a nice salad if it wasn't for the rotten stuff.

    Yeah look, not great at all. Got a French dip sandwich, and the sandwich was rather greasy, and the meat was rather dry. The dip came out at a boiling temperature in a plastic cup, almost as if it was straight out of the microwave. Luckily, I'd sat down to eat, but I'd hate to think what might happen if someone were to spill it on themselves.

    Sorry, I started eating the top of the bread bowl already.

    Craving some clam chowder for lunch since it was cold outside while flying out of SFO so we came in to get some. You can order at the counter or the kiosk. I found it easier at the kiosk so we did that. Then picked up the food. It was packed and busy, I guess everyone wanted lunch. The clam chowder was delicious. Creamy with large chunks of potatoes and clams. It comes with a bread bowl and it will fill you up. The sourdough bread bowl was delicious. I also got the turkey and avocado sandwich but did not get to eat because I was full from the clam chowder.

    Ambiance Very busy it is in Terminal A. Looks like u have to clean ur own table. Service N/A u order from kiosk and they call ur name when ready. Service Charge $1.83 what the hell. Sesame Ginger Salad This was an exceptional salad. Crisp lettuce and bell peppers. Chicken tasty. Loved the dressing just the right amount of sweetness. French Dip Deluxe It was just ok.

    "Did you want to just take a can and eat out of that?" Famous last words. Last Friday, me and my homie were still hungry after eating Gott's. I was on the phone with my Credit Union because it was declining my credit card from loading money onto my Suica account. If you are traveling to Japan, I highly recommend you don't wait to the last minute like I did. Get this squared away at least a day before you travel. Oh yea...you are here for food huh? I got you. Originally we went over to Boudin right after eating at Gott's. On the right hand side we saw a stack of cans which look like were on display to indicate you can probably buy a can to eat in the comfort of your home. That's why my friend originally made that joke in the beginning. The problem was mainly that the line was too long. We dipped. -Que Spongebob Narrator voice saying "One hour later..."- I'm on the phone with my credit union and my homie decides to make an executive decision and get a cup for us to snack on. I take one bite and it does not taste good at all. It literally tasted like they took the can, poured it in a bowl and microwaved it. Im over exaggerating but the flavor was very clammy. The Boudin that I know and love always had a creaminess to it, and this chowder did not have any creaminess whatsoever. Someone preparing it that day probably forgot to add the dairy. But sadly I couldn't finish it. After eating Gott's though, I wasn't too surprised. Airport food amirite?

    We were waiting in the airport for our flight. Looked around to see which restaurant we can eat at. My daughter wanted clam chowder in a bread bowl. She loved it. Location is in the airport and it's pretty busy. We sat next to a couple from France. It did seemed a little loud but it's expected when it's busy. It did seemed a little pricey but it was also in an airport so it was also expected!

    Really wanted them to prove the other reviews wrong because I love Boudin -- especially as someone who lived in SF for almost a decade. I got a breakfast sandwich around 10:15 a.m. and appreciated that they cooked it fresh -- it came out nice and hot and looked great. Unfortunately, the bread crust was a bit stale, which was really disappointing for Boudin. Day-old bread, I guess? The eggs and bacon were fine -- eggs were barely seasoned, but it still worked since the bacon was salty and the bread had good flavor overall.

    Normally this would be a 1-star, but it's Airport food and it's edible, so maybe it's a 3-star for them. If you are really hungry and just want to fill yourself up with something under $13, I guess you can order this clam chowder bowl. Everything is bad, from chowder to the bread. The bread stinks badly.

    I've been to this Boudin a few times before departing for my flight. I would pick up canned chowder and sourdough crisps to bring back home. They serve Peet's Coffee and there's a good selection of pastries which are reasonable priced. They don't have a toaster though so you can't get any of the pastries warmed. The coffee and pastry line is different from the line with the soups and sandwiches. For the soups and sandwiches, you order from the self service kiosk. I recommend giving yourself an extra 15 - 20 minutes if you do plan on picking up breakfast here before your morning flight. They get really busy and the wait time to order and make your drink(s) can be long. If you're not in a rush to get to the gate, you can hang out in there to enjoy your food. They have lots of seating available.

    Clam chowder in sourdough bread bowl.

    Not bad for an airport location. Stopped by for a bite before boarding my flight to Dubai yesterday, intending to order clam chowder in a sourdough bread bowl. I had high hopes because I'd enjoyed a sublime bowl of the same a few days before at a strip mall location in Walnut Creek. Alas, this was not the same five star experience. Ordering took a while because the self-order kiosks were not being kind, but the food came out within two minutes of placing my order. They served the sourdough bread bowl separately from the clam chowder, so I needed to combine the two. Which was not a problem, it just took away from the experience. The chowder was piping hot but tasted mediocre. The bread had the classic sourdough taste, but was too chewy and served cold. Mixed together, the meal was tolerable. Likely will try other locations next time.

    It's really pricey they charged me like 6$ for just water since they are in airport they taking advantage of it.

    For the other options available at this airport, this food is a steal at the price. I have never had pizza with this good of a crust. The food is served in a plate--but it's an airport so oh well.

    Sesame chicken salad
    Hagar A.

    Quick service. Ordered the sesame chicken salad on the kiosk for $17. Bigger bowl than I thought airport food would be like and actually tasty too. The include a slice of bread with the salad. Lots of seating options too.

    TLDR: To no one's surprise at all, Butter & Crumble is still…read moremy favorite bakery in the world. They still have the crispiest, most innovative pastries every month, and September 2026's menu blew me away. I know the line can be long, but they are working as fast as they possibly can and there's so much love in the pastries that the wait is worth it. ------ FOOD (SEPT 2026): 1. EGGPLANT DANISH (5/5) One of the must unique pastries I've ever had. I would say this is a must try for this month, especially if you like Middle Eastern flavors. The eggplant was super tender and very easy to bite through. But what I appreciated the most was the layers of complexity with this danish -- zhug below the marinated eggplant, and not only whipped goat cheese and harissa on top, but also sprinkled pomegranate seeds on top for added acidity and brightness. 2. APPLE VANILLA BEAN CRUFFIN (5/5) Apple pie in a crispy croissant muffin! Fresh apple pie filling is extremely generous, and most importantly, the vanilla bean diplomat cream on top was actually a nice balance to the sweetness of the apple compote. A great fall pastry for this month. 3. CORN PROSCIUTTO CROISSANT (5/5) A super familiar and comforting flavor. The corn and basil bechamel sauce was addictive and abundant. It will never cease to amaze me how their pastries can be full of fillings like this and not get soggy. The "prosciutto" in this had the thickness and texture of deli ham vs. prosciutto (I actually prefer ham to prosciutto), so it was extremely tender and easy to take bites. 4. BROWN BUTTER CORNMEAL TWICE BAKED (4.5/5) I love their twice baked croissants so much because they have the perfect flakey texture. The chocolate filling brought this entire croissant together. I thought the cornmeal frangipane was super creative and interesting, but at the end of the day this wasn't a 5/5 for me simply because I ultimately decided that I would have preferred a smoother texture to a grittier cornmeal texture. But that is simply personal preference, and the flavor was still phenomenal. 5. TAHINI COFFEE PAIN AU CHOCOLAT (4.5/5) Great pain au chocolat. Full of both tahini and chocolate filling, though didn't get as much of the coffee flavor. Extremely flakey pastry. I've had other tahini chocolate croissants so this isn't the most unique flavor combination, but this was one of my favorite renditions of this combo. 6. RICE ROLL SPECIAL BUN (4.5/5) A divisive one! Butter & Crumble is exception for the quality of its crispy, flakey pastry, and this item has very little of that. It's extremely soft and possibly soggy, but not in an unpleasant way at all. In fact, I actually loved how soft this item was because the pastry didn't outshine the quality and flavors of all the other ingredients in this. The spicy chili oil on top was chef's kiss on top of everything. I've never had a pastry like this before, and I don't think I ever will again. Bravo. ------ ENVIRONMENT / AMBIANCE: * Same space as always, and the line was only 1 hour last week, which was totally doable * They're really emphasizing staying quiet to respect the people in the neighborhood, so don't bring any loud friends here! ------ SERVICE: * The ladies here were lovely as always! One of them was the outdoor coordinator who visited everyone in line with the latest menu and information on ordering so you could plan ahead * Was very fast getting a box full of pastries, but if you order a drink, expect to wait a little longer inside since those are made to order

    San Francisco has many foods which are always highly debatable when it comes to the best of the…read morebest. The typical categories are dumplings, pizza, chicken wings, burritos, coffee, sandwiches, and croissants. There is even a yearly competition in SF for the best overall flakey croissant. Every year there is a new winner. This place is a worthy competitor and it's always demand on the weekends and it's called Butter and Crumble. On the last weekend of the Summer stroll I landed on Francisco street. You will see a line and once inside you will find lots of bake goods. I ordered the classic croissant and it was flakey like some in SF. It was buttery and tasty. I also got the Corn Proscuitto Croissant and was corny like some on social media feed. I then got the Rice Roll Special Bun which was my favorite and it was savory with lots flavor. I washed it all down with Apple Pie Matcha for Don Juan De La Matcha. In my judgement Butter and Crumble is one of the best bakery in the city. Up early you have to "wake" to grab some desserts they "bake" and "make "some croissants in SF which "flake" So many places with flakey croissants in SF I "stumble"some are flashy some are "humble"others like to debate and ready to "rumble" and defend their favorite croissant in SF whether is Juniper, Arsicault or "Butter and Crumble"

I recommend the original custard pineapple bun. The salted egg yolk pineapple bun was also good but I think it should have had a little more filling. If you're craving savory pastries, the bbq pork pineapple bun is also good. The croissant egg tarts are fantastic. The custard tastes like a Portuguese egg tart but the crust is super crunchy and flakey. There's a caramelized sugar coating around the crust which makes it extra crispy. Highly recommend!

Paying less than $5 for a generously-sized slice (adorned with a mini slice on top) felt like a bargain, especially in SF. I would definitely make the trip back out here to give the pizza another try and to pick up some of the other baked goods.
