    We stopped by for a late dinner before a movie. They close at 9pm and we arrived at 8:30pm, not ideal but we agreed to eat at the table quick while the servers cleaned up. I'm not sure if it's because we came at this time, I thought the burger was okay. I got a double cheeseburger with all the fixings and cheddar. They had fresh fixings, but it was fine. The fries were crispy and good. I was surprised that when I ordered the calibur fries with the sauce and caramelized onions, everything was on the side and I had to assemble it, and again, it was okay. The prices are really high to justify the meal. The space was clean, there's indoor tables and there seems to be an outdoor area. The vibe was that the people working there were trying to do their side work and get out asap. Considering the price and quality of food, it wasn't my favorite

    Double burger with the fixings DEVINE!!

    Everything that could go wrong with these delivery apps actually went wrong and they were not willing to accommodate! Unacceptable and the sad thing is the restaurant gets only a percentage! I'm gonna figure out a way to start a petition to cancel all delivery apps starting with Grubhub! The Restaurants should get 100% in my humble opinion. What went right was when I called Calibur to just cancel the order and that I would eat the cost, the amazing owner refused and offered to deliver my order himself! Wait whaaaat?? I was so grateful beyond belief! I tried to tip him again and he refused! The Burgers and Garlic Fries were absolutely amazing! We should support all small businesses for always! 1000% my family and I will be FOREVER customers for life!! Thanks so much!!

    Some of he best fries in SF hands down. We got the garlic fries and the calibur fries (like animal style)! And they both blew us away with flavor. The best garlic fries I have ever had bc garlic was cooked all the way down and super concentrated with that garlic flavor so savory & tantalized my taste buds. My guy said the burger was amazing made with high quality beef a 5/5. The only thing that fell flat was the veggie burger it was very lackluster and they didn't add my cheese which costs extra. Milk shake wasn't great either... got malted but it was still runny and the malt wasn't dissolved it was tiny for the price. The portions here are average except for the fries( big), I would personally only return for fries!

    Tried this place out on Door dash during the happy hour special. These burgers are great. Joins the ranks of other great burgers in the city. The chili cheese fries were phenomenal as well. Will have to check this place out in person sometime, but for the meantime, I'll be ordering from Door dash!

    Rotting lettuce, yuck

    Beware, doesn't seem like the restaurant checks the quality of the lettuce that is being used. I've gotten delivery from Calibur in West Portal numerous times before. This most recent time will be my last unfortunately. I am still on the mend from mild food poisoning from a salad I ordered. Who knows if the lettuce in the burgers was bad too. Definitely explains why I've felt sick for the back half of this week. Here was the leftover lettuce in my fridge last night. The yellow spring mix (not normal) had come like that when it got delivered. I suppose I should have known by the smell from the lettuce, but I trusted that the restaurant would have good food quality and processes in place to make sure only fresh ingredients go to the customer. I was wrong.

    I asked for no cheese so they charged me $1.00 more without asking or telling me. That's how they do business . Way to lose a customer.

    "Smish Smash I was taking a bath, long about a Wednesday night, yeah!!!" Okay I'm no Bobby Darin,…read morebut I am quite the aspiring burger aficionado and the smash burgers being handcrafted at Smish Smash are some of the best and most affordable in the entire city of San Francisco! And when Food & Wine Magazine calls this burger one of the most exciting in the U.S., I for one was implored to take notice and visit! Located on the first floor of Saluhall on Market Street in downtown San Francisco next to the IKEA store, Smish Smash started as a pop-up six years ago by owners Am y Han and Victor Donado. Just last year they opened their first stand-alone location on the first floor of Saluhall, which to be quite honest has struggled to keep their other vendors open. Thankfully, Smish Smash has had the benefit of being on the first floor with a view of Market Street, not to mention a great word of mouth thanks to their exceptional smashed burgers that has not only many burger lovers coming in, but quite the number of delivery drivers coming in to pick up burger orders galore. What brought me here to Smish Smash was the fact that a friend and I had theatre tickets at the nearby Golden Gate Theatre and we decided that we needed something quick and delicious before we walked back to the theatre to sit for almost three hours of a show. They suggested that we try this amazing and fun burger concept that was garnering significant buzz and so meeting up at Saluhall was the way to go as they had complimentary WiFi access and plenty of clean and open seating. The menu at Smish Smash is of course filled with burger options with no fewer than seven on their regular menu and a rotating special menu items including items with chili on them including fries, hot dog, and chili in a bowl, not to mention a couple of extra burgers to boot. Each of their burgers on their regular menu has the option of ordering it as a single or double smash burger. Since it was my first time, I ordered a single version of their Cheeseboiga, which had yellow American cheese, pickles, caramelized onions, and mac sauce. My dining mate ordered a single version of their Wow Burger which was topped with white American cheese, grilled onions, pickles, and s2 sauce, which is a combination of mayonnaise and relish, with an order of a side of Curly Fries which were cooked in beef tallow, our total bill was 33 dollars before taxes and gratuity were added in. It wouldn't take too long for our order to be custom made by their team and we enjoyed every last bite while sitting at their communal dining inside the Saluhall. The most noticeable thing that I noticed about the smash burgers at Smish Smash was the fact how thin their smashed burgers were, almost paper like thinness, which made for a unique dining experience. But what was lacking in overall heft of the burger was more than made up in terms of overall juiciness and flavor of my overall burger, of which came out clear on the grease and flavor on my fingertips as I ate every last bite. So good was my experience at Smish Smash that a return visit mere a couple of months later was in order when I attended a show at the nearby Orpheum Theatre. With complimentary WiFi and water available to customers, this time I ordered their Smish Smash Special which was their Dac Biet smash burger which was their signature grass-fed smashed beef topped with white American cheese, sliced onions, jalapeños, cilantro, Thai basil, alfalfa sprouts, lime and pho aioli. This particular smash burger, which cost 16 dollars, was a little on the healthier side as the sprouts, onions, and cilantro overpowered everything, but the flavor profile did make it feel as if I was enjoying a bowl filled with pho noodles with all the fixings. I appreciate what Smish Smash is trying to do, as an up and coming entrepreneurial business from pop-up to permanent business in an area that could seriously use the support, I am all in with what Smish Smash is offering up on a daily basis, good affordable trendy smash burgers that makes burger lovers coming back for more and then some! "I was a-moving and a-grooving, yeah I was a-smishing and a-smashing..."

Parking was difficult to find…read moreinitially - but after circling around a few times, I realized there is a garage in the same building. Now to the best park...the food! Easily one of the best smash burgers I've had in the bay. I got the cheeseboiga single. Shoe string fries had the best crisp. And take it from me - please don't skip the banana pudding! Service was prompt, and met with a smile. She was patient while we took a while to decide our order. Also, keep a look out for specials. I noticed the special signs right after i placed my order. Food also came out just as quickly. I hope they add more food spots in this food hall! Ambiance is modern, clean. (And there's a Photo Booth!) we will be back!!!

Causwells is one of the restaurants definitely worth exploring. First off, everyone on staff is so incredibly kind, generous, and welcoming, you'll never want to leave. There is a small bar area immediately to your left when you walk into this intimate feeling Restaurant. The bartender makes you feel like you're walking into chairs. Yes he's busy, but he acknowledges customers walking in. Very cool! We were immediately seated, and while the tables are on the smaller side and fairly close to one another, it's still created a very cozy experience. They have a nice menu that with a variety of items. The people seated next to us were enjoying the salmon and it looked absolutely delicious. We went for the burgers, because it's one of their must try items on the menu. It's a Smashburger with gooey cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, and this delicious deliciously soft tasty bun. Diners tip: the burger comes with onions, and we both asked for them to be grilled. This is definitely the way to go. The burger is very generous in size, snd delicious. Perfectly seasoned, well-made, and it is that taste sensation that we all crave when eating a burger. The fries were tasty and lightly seasoned, and if you can get through the entire burger and the fries, you get a gold star. I did my usual two bites and I was done and yes, I took the rest home with me. This is a great restaurant and definitely should be on your list of places to try!

Salad with sunchokes and citrus was a nice bit of roughage, nice bitterness in the lettuces. - Banana bread 'grilled cheese' is an epiphany. Must try. - Cocktails were fun & IGworthy. - Vibes & location feel so perfect on a sunny afternoon. Cons: - 1 bathroom stall, can only imagine how rough this gets when during a busy dinner service. - Service was friendly, but often multiple asks for the same item, and long waits between check ins. Overall, a decent spot in an area flush with choice. Probably more of a 3.5 than a 4, but well round up here!

The bagels - extremely good, New York level bagels. They're rip and dip (like Pop Up Bagels in NYC) which I'm a huge fan of. Got the salt bagel, eggything (egg everything), and pumpernickel with scallion cream cheese. The cream cheese is incredible, super rich and kind of buttery. The eggything was really fluffy and definitely my favorite of the three, with plain salt a close second. I liked that it wasn't extremely salty. At night, we did have to wait but it was only 30 minutes for a party of five, and there are nice waiting areas to stay in the meantime or you can walk around Richmond. We sat inside but the outdoor seating looked nice so I definitely want to try that again on a nice day. Got the blood orange soda, which was refreshing and sweeter than the bottled ones you'd get at Trader Joe's. We shared two pizzas between 5 people which was plenty, they're Detroit style so pretty thick. The vodka margherita was pretty good but my favorite was the Sausage and peppers, which has these really cute spherical peppers that looked like cherry tomatoes at first, and is topped off with a creamy sauce on top. We also got a side of ranch which was very dill forward, it paired well with both pizzas.

We waited in line for about 50 minutes and landed on bar seating. Service was efficient and accommodating. * * * O U R P I C K S * * * DOUBLE PATTY, DOUBLE CHEESE ~ shrettuce, pickles, onions and French-style potato salad. This was juicy, but it was missing tomatoes and more lettuce and onions. Just felt heavy and greasy, because it was double meat and double cheese. It needed some freshness from extra vegetables to make it cleaner tasting. I tasted the pickles in between the patties, but it still didn't cut the greasiness. The buns were a bit too soft and they didn't seem toasted, so while holding it, it became smooshed. Potato salad was ok, though I'd probably prefer fries with ketchup. It's half-cut roaster potatoes with a bland dressing, because the potatoes are big pieces. If they were cut smaller, you'll taste the dressing more than just potatoes. 3.5/5 SAUSAGE AND PEPPERS PIZZA ~ fennel sausages, Jimmy Nardello pepper cream, pearl peppers, mozzarella, & red sauce. This was ok. Crust was crispy, but the pizza bread was more dense than we would have liked. The Jimmy Nardello pepper cream sauce on top was heavy and it was too saucy for us. Mozzarella had a good cheese pull and was good. But like the burger, it felt heavy. Needed more acidity to balance and lighten the load. 3.5/5 I guess on Wednesday nights, people don't mind waiting an hour for the burgers. If it had sliced tomatoes and more lettuce, it would have been much better. But for $15, they should have the essentials to make a good burger. As for the pizza, maybe we chose the wrong one for us. We left disappointed. In my opinion, it's overhyped for 1hr+ wait.
