    Great spot to kill some time before a flight. The coffee was good and the beer was nice and cold. Fries came out freshly fried and crisp. My wife had the grilled cheese with tomato soup and it really hit the spot. Service was friendly and kept the visit easy and relaxed. There's a mix of bar seating and table seating with a good amount of TVs so it's easy to stay entertained.

    Came here while we waited to board our flight to Vegas and it was okay. We chose this place because the menu had scallops and they had big screen tvs so the guys could watch the game but there weren't any available seatings with tv view once we seated ourselves. Would rather check out other options available at the airport. The service was mediocre, pace of our food arriving was slow and after our server brought out our plates of food and left we had to flag him down because we didn't have any utensils. The herb sauce with the fettuccini was what we enjoyed the most! We got the: * Fettuccini with pan seared scallops: creamy herb sauce, seared scallops, pancetta eggs fettuccini pasta, parmesan cheese and chopped parsley for $26 x 2. * Roasted Cauliflower: marinated in curry spiced greek yogurt topped with fresh lime zest for $12.

    Pepper toast with avocado and egg

    I only had time for light fare on this morning stopover. Open concept restaurant with most areas open for seating. Near gate 8, it is pretty convenient with other restaurant and store options nearby. The bartender was busy but nice so the service was quick. I asked for coffee with Bailey's which he rung up as a double shot and a coffee--the most expensive way to do it; but whatever I have a flight. The disappointment beyond that was the avocado toast was a spread, not fresh avocado. And although the egg was perfectly poached, the multigrain singular toast had wayyyy too much red pepper--enough to spoil the dish.

    The food here slaps. The service doesn't. Prepare to wait a really long time before you're acknowledged after sitting down, and for long periods in between placing the order and signing the check. I think there was one person working the bar and the dining area so perhaps it's a staffing issue? But something to consider if you're in a rush. The avocado cobb salad I got was a really nice size and was FRESH- a delight in an airport! Love that the dressing was served inside of the avocado too. The grilled chicken was a bit charred but it didn't bother me. Highly recommend!

    For an airport set down restaurant. I'd say the food was pretty good. Service was excellent. We were seated without hesitation and brought iced waters. I tried the chef cat's burger and my husband had the flank steak tacos. My burger was excellent, cooked perfectly, and the fries were hot and fresh. My husband's tacos were also very good. An overall great experience.

    A few weeks ago we were in San Francisco airport and we were hungry so we decided to try this place for a hamburger . Of course everything is so expensive at the airport but it was worth every penny. The service was good also. The burger was cooked to perfection, very tasty, and at least 1/2 pound! Fries were good too.

    Nestled in a cozy little section of a rather large airport, this restaurant was exactly what I was looking for. I wanted something that let me have a view of the outside and a little quiet. I ordered a few glasses of wine, a caprese salad and a charcuterie board. it was absolutely perfect as it was the only full meal I would be able to eat that day due to travel.

    There are lots of places in Terminal 2 where you can get a $19 burger. So why not get a gourmet one? This place makes a nice burger, crispy on the outside, with a toasted brioche bun, and it has a really good supply of beers on tap. In choosing between this and Burger Joint (which is the same price), the choice was fairly obvious, and I think I went to the right place.

    I went here on Tuesday (07/16), I was connecting from Vegas to Honolulu. And I had literally one hour to order. Since I was in the back of the plane, I decided to order online. Which is a great feature for all/most of the restaurants at SFO! Got there and they were out of the item i had ordered, but I was able to choose anything else in that price range. Asked about the burger which was like a dollar more and the server was like NO PROBLEM! Eva was sooo great to. She really went above and beyond to ensure I had time to get to my next flight. She had me enjoy the meal there. The burger was superb! I didn't expect much since it was just a burger. But the cheese was perfectly melty... grilled bun was nice especially since it wS a brioche. It was cooked perfectly medium too! The ambiance is cute and sophisticated. I mean, as cute as an airport restaurant can be... nice bar counter. I had a great quick lunch. Also, ordered it online technically so it expedited payment process. I really wish i had cash to tip. But, definitely won't be disappointed with the burger and server, Eva, when I come back to SFO. I would probably eat this coming back. My only small feedback is... I wish the fries were crispy, but that's more of a preference thing.

    Great service, but it wasn't too busy when we were there. First off,it's SFO so prices are ridiculous, even for an airport. The beer, wine an cocktail list is good, as is the taste of those we had. We only had two dishes, Grilled Cheese Sandwich and Tomato soup which were both tasty. The Cured eat and cheeses was a dud, for$19 even in an airport, and I think they left the honeycomb in the hive. Would we return, Yes, but choose well and don't expect ambiance, there isn't any. No better than a TGIF Would we come back

There were plenty of tables by the windows looking out at the willow trees and I was happy to snag a spot in the sun. Even though the parking lot right outside was full, there were plenty of spaces in the big lot across the street. I will note that the large lot was completely full by the time I left at 11 am though. I ordered an iced chai latte with oatmilk ($7 after tax) and I thought it was so sweet that the server brought my drink when it was ready. I also appreciate when cafes don't charge extra for alternative milks. The WiFi was fast and easy to connect to, with no password like other folks mentioned. Although the drink was nothing extraordinary, I was happy to have such a pleasant space to work in. I would definitely come back to do remote work if I ever needed a space that is reliable and comfortable.

Parking is quite limited but there is a huge parking lot across that's free. The restroom for women was very clean and beautiful. The doors for the restroom were fully closed with no space for somebody to take a peek. They also have a basket full of free tampons and pads (even pads meant for a heavy period), which was very thoughtful of them to add! There's also a lot of seats so you don't have to worry about that. Most tables came with a plug in on the floor but I found that the tables near the big window didn't have one. Maybe it was just mine though. I ordered a hot chocolate w almond milk and 2 shots which came out to be $10.16. It tasted very standard and not good at all. I don't think it's worth the price since the drink was very mediocre. Service is great though! It started to get busy around 11pm for their lunch menu I believe. There's one area meant for a large group of people to dine. It'd be a great space for meetings or just a large gathering. I think I also saw a table at the back near the restrooms that can be used but I'm not too sure. Overall, good studying place with its amazing natural lighting and pretty weeping willows to look at!

The restaurant has a full bar and dining area. The place has the feel of a family Italian restaurant. It is quaint and comfortable. We both ordered the calamari steak which came with both soup and salad included. The soup was a minestrone - 9/10 - which was delicious, hearty, and felt like it was simmering all day. I think I could've easily just eaten the soup and salad and would have been very happy. The house salad - 8/10 - had a wonderful homemade Italian dressing. This was the best house salad I have ever had. Calamari steak - 7/10 - this was cooked very nicely and was piled high with garlic. The garlic wasn't overpowering at all and mixed well with the tartar sauce. The mash potatoes - 8.5/10 - were amazing and creamy. The menu had a wide variety of dishes. Given how good everything we had was, I would guess everything on the menu is likely just as good. Last but not least our server Audrey was great. She was attentive, pleasant, always there when we needed something, but never there too much. Audrey made the whole experience just that much better. I would highly recommend.

Great flavor... brought back memories of me traveling in the South. The eggs were perfectly... I threw it on top of the crispy hashbrowns (its shredded potatoes, not chunks). i added a little Chula and broke the yolks to cover the potatoes. There is a single, gender neutral bathroom at the back. Its clean, well stocked and spacious. The only negative was the no touch paper dispense was out of order and they had towels in plastic box on the sink counter.
