    Tahini squash bowl
    Erin H.

    Solid! Wasn't my all time favorite meal but I think it was very high quality. I wish they served their breakfasts past 11 am (online doesn't reflect that the breakfast menu ends at that time.) cute part of SF and was full of folks being social and studying. Pricey but probably standard for that area of SF. Great labeling for allergens and very vegetarian friendly.

    Breakfast burrito w bacon
    Ina N.

    Hearty, warm. Added bacon, but only saw what seemed like bacon crumbs/bits. Sauces were bland.

    Came on a Saturday afternoon and there was a short line to order. The drink took a bit of time to come out. There's a decent amount of space to wait around. The inside had good amount of seating but was packed. They also have outdoor seating! They also have bathrooms that are large. The coffee itself was good. I ordered an iced vanilla latte and it had the perfect balance of sweet and espresso. Not bitter and not sour! Not the best coffee I've had in SF but still a good place if you happen to pass by and need coffee.

    Falafel Bowl, to go
    Carol W.

    This is the place one passes by and instead goes to the same sandwich spot. This is the place one thinks may be only for coffee, not food. This is the place one needs to try to change one's daily or weekly pattern. I received a friendly welcome and then studied the menu. There was the falafel bowl I always wanted to try, so did. There were a few people eating and some working on their laptops in the well-lit space. I chose to take home the food due to time. When I returned home, the food was still warm. The bowl includes a variety of good flavors and an interesting combination of vegetables, in addition to a perfectly poached egg, 4 large falafel balls and a great tahini yogurt sauce. With nice service and good food, I'll be back. I suggest you visit!

    Mocha
    Khyber M.

    This review is just about the coffee. I ordered a mocha, and unfortunately it was one of the most disappointing coffees I've had. It was bland, lacked flavor, and just didn't taste good. I wish there were more honest reviews about the coffee here, because I probably wouldn't have stopped in. The service also felt a bit off. Not rude, but somewhat passive and impatient, as if the barista was just waiting for me to finish speaking. It's a beautiful location with great natural light, but the coffee itself was a letdown.

    Vanilla latte
    Antonella D.

    Good Service. Clean. Good tasted great. Decent seating. Seems like they get waves of people during certain times of the morning. Love the coffee art I also don't mind that the costumer puts there plates away, there is a cart ib the back that yiu can separate everything out. Free water up front as well

    I think the breakfast bowl has redeemed this place for me. I always thought it was overhyped for no reason. I've previously tried the breakfast burrito and did not like it. I've also had another one of their lunch bowls, which I was underwhelmed by however, their breakfast bowl was delicious. I love the dressing, the avocado and all the healthy veggies. Although I will say it took extremely long for me to get my food almost 30 minutes and I had to go check on it. It wasn't even a busy time.

    I came here twice and thought the food was good both times. The ambience inside is pretty nice too. Good for just chilling or light chit-chat. I really want to know the type of beet they have in the BBAA sandwich, because it was really good! I asked the people at the counter, but nobody seemed to know.

    Pretty in pink

    Solid vibey spot to grab a cup of joe and catch up with friends. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating but it gets packed. I like their crisp breakfast potatoes and the coffee isn't bad either. It's on the weaker side.

    Plantain Bowl! Yummy
    Maria W.

    I came here to get some work done, and it was the perfect place to do so. The service was magnificent, the ambiance was airy and light, and there were plenty of others productively working (but also many just enjoying time with friends or family) in my row of seating. I ordered the plantain bowl, which was so good, though I wish the plantains were cooked a little softer. But wow, the intermingling of so many flavors and textures was so filling, hearty, and delicious; in addition to the fried plantain there were black beans, half an avocado, red cabbage, tomato, scallions, quinoa, lentils, and brown rice atop a bed of a smokey sauce and an avocado cilantro sauce. I also ordered the red juice, which (although pricey) was good; the ginger was present but not overpowering, which was an unexpected and welcome balance struck.

    Side of fries (pretty good) Acai bowl Matcha Latte
    Nancy C.

    Looking for a cute, casual spot for a quiet bite or coffee? Or a cafe to work from? Then Cafe Reveille is a great spot. What I love most is their ambience. It's the perfect spot to get some reading done or catch up on work since there's a lot of seating with ample light. Their food menu ranges from sweet and savory bowls to sandwiches and burritos to pastries. Their drink menu also includes coffee, tea, juices, smoothies, and more. There's a ton of options to pick and choose from, I'm sure someone is bound to find something. Matcha Lattes - just OK, wish it had more matcha flavor. Espresso and Lattes - also just OK. Nothing bad, but also nothing memorable. Acai bowl - the most popular bowl as one of the workers recommended and first thing I noticed was that it had a lot of toppings. Fries - probably the best IMO except they doused it in salt. Otherwise, the texture was perfect with a good balance between the crispy edges and the soft, starchy insides. This place gives "girl dinner" energy and it's the vibes that's probably bringing people in.

    Kale salad and fries
    Christina L.

    Cafe Reveille never disappoints! I came by on a Sunday afternoon after funky yoga down the street. My friend and I were in the mood for something healthy and light. Fries and kale salad for me. She got a sandwich with bacon, focaccia and other delicious ingredients. I really enjoyed this spot and I think they updated their parklets recently. Inside is bright and airy too. :) Would recommend!

In my opinion Lapisara ranks in the middle due to the other excellent options available. Seated immediately--had a reso but on a Wednesday morning not really necessary. It took a long time for the single employee to get to us but we weren't in a hurry. Cappuccino was very good in a cute "bear mug" and very reasonably priced. We shared a pacific omlet--not much crab, lots of shrimp, and nice swiss cheese/scallions but tasted kind of fishy--potatoes were only avg. Son said huevos rancheros were average. Price point good for SF and portions adequate to share. Location convenient so we will try dinner there tonight before a comedy show nearby. Dinner-5++ stars; 4 of us Had dinner last night-6pm-reso but not needed. only one other group dining. Single Waitress was great-we let her know we needed to leave in about an hour for a show and she timed everything perfectly--we even had time for dessert. we ordered so many items that she brought over an extra table--we shared everything family style. Most Yelp reviews only mention brunch but the dinner was awesome--service; food: taste/quality, presentation, portions, prices we phenomenally low for SF ($200 with a bottle of wine for 4 people). We started with the garlic butter clams-small but tasty. Tuna tartar was excellent quality and enough to share. Samosas were more like empanadas--very good with peanut sauce so good it rivaled my own home made. We continued our culinary adventure with crab fried rice-delicious, a large portion and my son who lives in SF and has tried dozens of crab fried rice ranked it in the top tier. The pacific catch rice noodles with crab was also excellent-big portion, lots of crab, tasty. Final entree was their specialty-Mussaman Curry. Wow, tender meat/potatoe "stew" with a very unique flavor from the star anise/cinnamon and peanut--to die for. Creme Brulee was very good with lots of fresh fruit accompaniment My only complaint was a very limited wine selection. Lapisaia will become one of our regular spots for dinner!!!

    Came here on a Saturday for brunch…read more I got the Holy Chili Bomb Basil Omelette. It had ground chicken and veggies inside, and the chicken and basil were the flavors that stood out. I wouldn't call it spicy at all. The omelette felt small for the price and there wasn't much filling inside. It came with a side of potatoes that were really good. They had a nice crisp on the outside and were soft on the inside. I also got a regular coffee, and they do unlimited refills. The place was busy for brunch, and I liked the bear theme. Some of the coffees came in bear-shaped glasses, and some of the lattes had a decorative bear made out of ice.

My daughter, the least adventurous of us, went for the traditional French Toast, but it was not merely a serving of French Toast. This was as perfect as French Toast can get - whether it was the fine balance between egginess and non-soggy texture, or the thick maple syrup that enhanced rather than smothered, this was perfection! My wife ordered the Seafood Gumbo Deluxe which came with a a quarter of a crab, shrimp, mussels, chicken, Andouille sausage, accompanying the tasty gumbo! This was two meals in itself, it was so satisfyingly large. The meat was cooked to perfection. She appreciated that the seafood did not have a rubbery texture. I ordered from the specials menu - the Creole Sampler! If you are on the fence on whether to order the Chicken & Andouille Sausage Gumbo, or the Red Beans & Rice w/ Andouille Sausage (both are really delicious!), why not enjoy both with this sampler? Included are two pieces of fish that are SOOOOO tender (one was draped over a hushpuppy, and when I touched it with a fork, it fell to the plate - call that tender! Moist and flavorful, too! It was difficult to state which was my favorite, as it all depends on which one I first tasted (the Chicken & Andouille Sausage Gumbo), as the burst of flavor hit my taste buds. Had I tried the Red Beans and Rice w/ Andouille Sausage, or the catfish, I probably would have chosen one of those as well.

The residential setting is part of the appeal - you can actually spread out, and it's a lovely area to wander while you wait for a table (and you will wait, so plan for it).

Sitting outside on that peaceful corner watching the neighborhood wake up is a charming experience. Only downside of dining al fresco: a fly landed on my sausage. But credit to the staff - the waiter noticed and brought out a fresh plate without me even having to ask. That kind of attentive service goes a long way. The food lives up to the hype. The lemon ricotta pancakes are the star for good reason. They were light, fluffy, and not too sweet. The crispy potatoes were excellent too, just be warned they come out scorching hot (I burned the roof of my mouth going in too eager). Give them a minute to cool. Upside of parking on the top of that steep hill is that you'll burn off your breakfast calories getting back to your car.
