This charming place is such a treat. The space is small but bright and incredibly welcoming. You can't go wrong with their avocado toast or pancakes, and their greens are always the freshest. The service is exceptional, a huge shoutout to Hugo, who went above and beyond to make the experience great. One of my favorite places to eat! read more

Not too busy on a Saturday during brunch hours, maybe because we opted to sit outside. Pros: + Outdoor & patio seating + Heaters for outdoor seating Cons: - Parking might be difficult What I Ordered: + Maitake Soft Scramble (gf); 5/5 3 egg soft scramble, roasted maitake mushrooms, bloomsdale spinach, and goat cheese. served with buttered toast and choice of fried potatoes or salad. i opted to do half potatoes and half salad. they're potatoes are phenomenal, equivalent to Plows!! crispy and not too thick, which i love! i asked for no goat cheese, but i think they forgot. made my stomach a little grumpy, but i was able to avoid most of it and dodged a day of the runs. Will return to try more items on the menu! read more

Eats - jun 8, 2024 - Maitake Soft Scramble (gf) - maitake mushrooms, spinach, and goat cheese. - American Near Me - San Francisco, California

Came in on a holiday morning for breakfast. The spot is on the corner right next to Ariscault in the Richmond. It's a small place with about 15 two-person tables. It was a little chilly in there, lots of families with small children. The menu was small but the plates around me seemed well made. It's a moderately bustling little spot. I saw some chicken and waffles on the pictures crop Google but they didn't have any! But they did have a side of fried chicken so I got the pancakes and a side of chicken, and a coffee. Total came to $31.23. I think the pancakes were decent with a nice presentation. The chicken was a little meh and looked kinda old. Nothing to really rave about, but then again, I didn't get a plate like some of the others I saw-- the egg plates with some nice meats. It's a nice casual spot for a quick bite, I'd go elsewhere if I had someone to eat with. I'd say like 3.5/5 read more

Perfect for a quick bite before perusing the Clement Street farmers market on Sundays (and it's a prime corner spot for people watching through the window too). We tried the maitake soft scramble (can't go wrong with mushrooms and a nice cheese) and the fluffy pancakes (lived up to their name, simple, soft, and with just the right amount of sweetness from the strawberries and a drizzle of syrup). The food here is straightforward and fresh! read more

Perfect place for a weekend or weekday lunch! I went around 11am on a Sunday and only waited about 15 min for 3 people. The French toast was amazing and love the maitake soft scramble as well! I'd recommend doing family style so you get a mix of sweet and savory. All the portions are huge. read more

The interior of this place is small, if you want an indoor seat you'll need to be patient. Outdoor seating is quicker to get a spot however they don't have any heaters. We waited for a while to get a table for a party of 6 indoors, when we sat down and ordered we also waited a while to order and for our food to come out. As we were waiting the owner brought out some complimentary biscuits with butter and jam and they were absolutely delicious. I don't think I've ever had a biscuit that delicious in my life. It was the perfect crisp on the outside and softness and warm inside. I ordered the chicken sandwich which was good and had a small kick to it. The salad it came with was a delicious lemon garlicy dressing. My only complaint is that the chicken sandwich came with green tomatoes and they were on the harder side and not entirely ripe yet. The fluffy pancakes were a but dense read more

Came here on a Thursday at noon and we were sat down immediately. I came with a friend to have lunch here and it was a nice small restaurant with a lot of decorations and a tree inside the restaurant. We got a garden bowl with a side of fried chicken, grilled chicken burger with potatoes and shared a French toast. All of the food was amazing and the service was great and it was a nice vibe inside the restaurant. would definitely come back since it's so close to where I live. read more

Great spot for breakfast/brunch. Everything is always fresh and tasty. The maitake soft scramble was more like an omelette, but nicely done, and their potatoes and toast are terrific. Friendly, welcoming and attentive staff. Coffee refills throughout. Cool dining room, open kitchen with a decorated tree branch for the holidays. read more

Eats - Maitake Soft Scramble (more like an omelette, but tasty) - American Near Me - San Francisco, California

What a wonderful place to grab some yummy brunch! I came in with a friend during the clement street farmers market. It was very busy, but we were able to get a table under 15 minutes. We ended up ordering the fried chicken sandwich and their version of chilaquiles. Both dishes were good, but the sandwich was by far the star. Would definitely order that again. The potato side that came with the sandwich was also delicious. The chilaquiles were also good, but the salsa they use (as well as the sour cream) made it a very heavy dish. We weren't able to finish that, but we were glad we were able to try it. Service was very friendly and the plants inside created a cozy vibe. Will definitely be back to try the rest of the menu! read more

Pleasant atmosphere, efficient service and really, really yummy almond rice flour gluten-free pancakes. Popular and crowded on a Saturday morning. read more

Went on a whim happen to be in the area in the morning and thought I would try breakfast. Location was fine. We actually found parking pretty easily on Clement, which was surprising and there were only two other tables at the time seated right away. Nice clean looking area to dinethe service was right on par This was rated as two dollar bill signs for price point but I found that it was a little bit higher than that. I would've said three dollar bill signs more accurately reflect the prices but everything is up in San Francisco. It wasn't outrageous nor was it cheap food came out pretty quickly and we ate everything so it must've been good! I would recommend it to people but just know that it's not really a bargain type place, but I would say fair market value for these days. My girlfriend got the Chile tostada plate and I got a pancake, which was very fluffy and delicious. One was enoughfor me. Seems like they have a pretty loyal following so I think they have been sold recently. seems like they're doing OK. read more

Eats - Side of Lox (Smoked Salmon) - American Near Me - San Francisco, California

Revisited after their recent ownership change and remodel. Delighted with our breakfast. Service continues to be friendly, but pacing of the food is slow. The pancakes were delicious. The fluffy pancakes tasted like madeleines. The almond rice flour pancake (side order) is slightly denser but still good. The pulled pork confit (side order) is crispy and yummy. The over easy egg is also good. We sat outside and they are very dog friendly with water bowls available for the pups. Weekends are very busy and hard to score a table, but lovely on a sunny day. read more

Best pancake I've ever had in my life. Also gluten free. Crunchy on the outside, the inside melts in your mouth.

This is Eats 2.0 at the corner of Clement St & 2nd Ave. my understanding is they'd been closed, don't know the full story, and had recently reopened with a new menu and staff. We were warmly greeted once we walked into the small but sunny corner location. There's some seating along the outside perimeter of the eatery. We got our waters, menus and coffee briskly which is great when coffee is needed to make your morning okay!! We decided to share: MAITAKE SOFT SCRAMBLE (gf), a 3-egg soft scramble w/roasted maitake mushrooms, Bloomsdale spinach & goat cheese, fried potatoes & artisan toast. There an option for a salad in lieu of potatoes. But boy were we happy with our choice! First bite of the potato set the standard for the rest of the meal. The potato was properly crispy, fluffy hot interior and well seasoned, making my mouth very happy! Next the soft scramble w/bites of maitake mushrooms, spinach, and a tangy tinge here and there of the goat cheese made it absolutely delightful! A nice way to round out this plate was Bonne Maman apricot jam & butter for the toast. This was a clean well balanced breakfast plate that was light, tasty, & hot! Choose the salad as side if you want to be extra good but, darn, those potatoes!!! SIDE ALMOND RICE FLOUR PANCAKE (gf) w/fresh berries, whipped butter & pure maple syrup. This was a really fluffy pancake that melded well w/the butter & syrup condiments. Definitely would order again! We didn't intend on having a gluten-free breakfast but the ingredients and pairings sounded great and, guess what, it delivered! The waitstaff was attentive, thoughtful throughout our breakfast and all of them had a nice easy smile while checking in on us. What more can you ask for at the first meal of the day! Eats has a very eclectic breakfast brunch menu where you can find Thai pulled pork or Vadouvan Curry Chickpeas to a fried chicken sandwich or signature Eats burger! Next visit, I'm looking forward to trying the Vadouvan Curry Chickpeas, pancakes, and any breakfasts with the side of potatoes! See you there! They're currently open from 8AM-2PM Wednesday-Monday. Closed on Tuesday for now with plans to open every day! read more

Very busy brunch spot in the inner Richmond with good food and decent service. We waited half an hour for a table and the staff was nice to let us sit and chat even when we were done eating. We ordered a breakfast egg plate with potatoes and a pancake and the maitake mushroom scramble with a salad. The maitake scramble was my favorite, the mushroom and spinach paired really well with the goat cheese. The toast and potatoes were also yummy. The pancakes were denser than I'd prefer so I would skip it next time. read more

Found my new go to brunch spot when visiting my parents! This is in the Richmond district with patio seating. They have the perfect variety of menu items without feeling overwhelming. We got the tosta-quiles, pancakes, fried chicken sandwich, and the Eats burger with bacon to share. All of the dishes complemented each other and it was the perfect way to try a bit of everything. I normally wouldn't share brunch food, but everything looked so good that we had to! My favorite might have been the potatoes- they were perfectly seasoned and cooked with a crispy outside and gooey inside. The pancakes are so fluffy and the texture is between Japanese soufflé pancakes and regular pancakes. The only thing I wouldn't quite recommend is their coffee and I wish they had fresh squeezed juices. But other than the beverages, you really can't complain about the food. The service is friendly, the atmosphere is cute, and our wait for a table outdoors was almost nonexistent. I'd expect parking to be difficult in the area but this place is certainly worth a trip for anyone looking for a great brunch in the area. read more

I ordered the avocado toast with smoked salmon on top and it was absolutely delicious. Great neighborhood spot with a friendly staff.

I am currently writing this from within the establishment. My friend and I have been seated in the restaurant for close to an hour (one saving grace is my now cold cup of coffee and her almost completely gone iced tea) we have had our order in since 1:05. Here is the timeline of events: come to the restaurant, walk up to the host stand and ask about the wait, treated like a complete vagrant stranger no hi or hello, 10-15 minute wait okay whatever that's fine it's a nice day, we get sat at approximately 12:55p, order taken around 5 minutes later, we get our drinks (mentioned above), we're sitting and chatting and that's fine, people who were sat at the same time, after us, and larger parties get their food and finish up. We start wondering what's going on with our food. Clock strikes 1:48, by our observation the kitchen looks to be cleaning up for the day. At this point they're still seating people close to closing the restaurant at 2pm. Still no food to be had. My friend who was with me walks to the host stand to ask where our food is, hostess asks how many in our party, forgetting she was the one who sat us. Actions are louder than words. Person who took our order, maybe they were the manager, comes over to apologize for "forgetting about us." Friend asks, "did they even make the food" he says they did not. Offered gratis on our drinks and we took our money down the street. "Eats" established in 1975 still trying to get their act together 50 years later. read more

Eats has had new owners for a couple of years. The food is excellent, and so is the service. Today I got the half-sized French toast (one thick slice instead of two), nicely caramelized with balsamic strawberries and creme fresh, as well as seasonal fresh fruit, a fried egg and coffee. The meal was so pretty I had to take pictures. The seasonal fruit included berries (summer) as well as thinly sliced pears and pink lady apples (Fall). I thought I had tried pink lady apples before, but these were different- pink inside the apple slices, with a yellow peel. It was a pop of color that helped energize my morning, and everything was delicious! We normally sit outside, but since today is Monday, the inside was not crowded, and we ate inside. The music was lovely, and the servers are attentive. read more

Came here at noon. Windy day. Wait was 20 minutes. Worth it! Ziggy seated us indoors so my child wasn't wind whipped. In addition Jennifer lowered the music by 5 decibels so my family's ears don't pop. Food was yummy! Pancakes fluff and eggs were perfect sunny side up. read more

Hey Simon and awesome Eats Crew!! We were looking at dozens of local restaurants for our 29th wedding anniversary today. Where could we go and pickup delicious and memorable food? So many, many places.( I wasn't leaving the apt today.. :) We are so darn happy we decided to go with our neighbors: Eats!!!  We just stood in our tiny kitchen having a class 1 feeding frenzy of all your carefully prepared dishes!! It was amazing, and each one surpassed our expectations. I'd never tried your insane grilled cheese or your unbelievable French toast w hot peaches!! I actually took the to go box and weighed the french toast: 24 oz of what I'll now be referring to as french toast steaks, cuz they are huge and steak like, but so, so much better. We also loved the wonderful burger and my daydream of having a giant dinner plate full of your extra crunchy potatoes was fulfilled. Thank you! read more

First let me say, if you want to chat w/your guest, skip it. The noise level is off the charts and the tables are literally on top of each other. Be prepared to wait for a table. The bacon, eggs and taters were exceptional. Eggs cooked perfectly, taters seasoned beautifully and not over done. 2 little slim wedges of toast, not enough IMP. Single pancake was good, but not worth $5.00. Plus they provided plenty of soft whipped butter and syrup. Skip the coffee, it's mostly brown water. They show photos of eggs Benedict on their website, but they only have 1 to offer. A bit disappointed. Service is fast and efficient. Quite limited menu. read more

Get the almond pancake. You will not be disappointed! It's my favorite thing on the menu that I otherwise would not have ordered if it wasn't for wanting to try something new. The food is always delicious and the waitstaff is great. Went with my dog once and sat outside and they were super sweet to her. read more

This was my first time at Eats and while the inside is small it is very cute! It's usually pretty busy on the weekends and you will probably have to wait for a table for a little. The food was good, however for the price I was not blown away by anything. The tostaquiles were yummy and filling, but this will not be a go to brunch spot of mine despite being so close to my neighborhood. It's worth a try, however! read more

I went here with a friend who was visiting recently. It was on a Wednesday and we wanted to get breakfast here around 10:10am and there was no wait! Now, I've never been here before, but I loved how they have such a large variety of breakfast items to choose from on the menu! Some of the breakfast items were not like the typical American breakfasts and I thought that was cool. Anyways, I got the Divorced Eggs and my friend got the Breakfast Suite. I enjoyed my Divorced Eggs because it was cool how the eggs were layered between soft tortillas and more eggs! The Divorced Eggs was basically like a Mexican style breakfast because of the tortillas and the salsas they put on top of it. The Divorced Eggs meal reminded me of an enchilada dish. My friend's item, the Breakfast Suite was more like the typical American breakfast with a waffle, sausages, roasted potatoes, and two eggs, which she thought was good too. I'd recommend this place! They have a large variety of breakfast items and some of the breakfast items are unique too! They were also quick at making our food, so that's nice too. read more

Swung by here after pickleball with some friends and OMG I'm so glad we discovered this place. When we arrived, we were welcomed by smiling and excited employees. This place was booming with business on Sunday and it was jam packed with people inside and outside. Since there was a total of 5 people in our party, we were seated inside. It was crowded inside, but since the staff were able to fit my party in, I was immensely grateful. We were welcomed by our phenomenal waitress, Ailey! She was so sweet, patient and a great conversationalist! She was very knowledgeable about the menu and answered any questions my party and I had. All of the food on the menu looked delicious. The prices of the items are typical for San Francisco which brought me no surprise. After browsing the menu multiple times, I decided to get the following: -Thai pulled pork: I would rate this a 4 out of 5. I wanted to try something I never tried before. I added an egg to it for an extra $3. It was delicious and tasted like a typical pork sandwich, except it tasted sweeter. If you're contemplating on whether or not to get the egg, honestly it does not make a difference. It didn't elevate the flavor or anything for me. The sandwich came with a side of potatoes that was sauteed in onions and this blew my mind! It was a nice surprise to find my sauteed onions and my potatoes to be seasoned to my liking. Personally I would rate the potatoes a 5 out of 5. -Chicken: I would rate this a 5 out of 5. My friend ordered this and this was the one of the best places I got chicken from. It was crunchy and had lots of flavor! Ultimately due to the superb food and service, I will be back. However, I will be asking to sit outside instead of inside. read more

Came here for brunch on a Saturday and managed to snag a small table inside. I got the Maitake Soft Scramble and it exceeded my expectations. I'm usually very wary of scrambled eggs because it's almost always overcooked. This was actually still soft and creamy. The mushrooms were not too earthy and were well balanced with the eggs and goat cheese. The goat cheese was also not too gamey and very fresh tasting paired with the mushroom and egg. It also added to the creaminess of the eggs without making it taste heavy. I would definitely try to come back to sample their other dishes! The service was good, although it was loud inside and a bit hard to have a conversation. read more

Whoever is in charge of packing to go - needs a second review. You request utensils.

You ask for crispy bacon, you get it cooked not crispy. read more

Super rude server. It was loud so we asked him to repeat something he mumbled when we came in for a table ("sit at any tabletop"), and he got hella patronizing and one-by-one, pointed out every single table (including dirty ones) and sassily said "You can sit here, or here, or here, or here, or here. Capeesh?" Yikes! Sorry, dude. We left. read more

This review is for Eats 2.0: We stopped by here because it appeared to be quite popular after their remodel. I was kinda disappointed with this restaurant. First, the ambience was quite loud inside since the music and kitchen was so loud. The inside seating was also very tight. This brunch spot does not have an espresso machine, which it did prior to the remodel. I ordered the fried egg sandwich, which was pretty dry. The potatoes were really good though but I am not sure if that makes up for a mediocre sandwich. read more

The door was open the entire time we were sitting we asked to be moved away from the door but they didn't move us and the door was jsit wide open the mwhole time we were trying to eat, do the price it's not worth it, it's really loud and. Cramped, I felt so uncomfortable my stomach hurts after eating from freezing and the loudness sensory overload. The biscut is good but upon serve of our food they forgot my partners orange juice and they don't give us any condiments we had to ask and they still didn't give us salt and pepper and the eggs and potatoes needed salt for sure. So overall not what it used to be for us. We used to come a lot, but we felt forgotten honeslty I think because we look not as rich as most of the customers so we jsit got totally overlooked, felt not great. We only like a few of the waiters and they weren't working today. Also multiple people were asking us if we were okay, but it would have been better to jsit have one waiter to a section so the experience is fully taken care of instead of jsit cycling around makes no sense. Because so much was missed. Food is decent but with the experience being so hot and miss I don't think o can't pay that much for jsit simple Breakfest. read more

heads up everyone- the fried chicken sandwich is the star of the menu! It's huge (so, yes, two meals for one price, which is a bonus!), and what sets it apart is that the breading has some kind of real kick to it. Plus there's some sort of creamy sauce to balance out the kick in the breading. And the bread is soft. Now, doesn't that sound delicious? Great job, guys! read more

Eat's recently changed ownership and, wow, what an upgrade! Everything is delicious. I get my fix at least once a week. Food: I can't rave enough about this place. The soft scramble with mushrooms and spinach is my go to. I skip the goat cheese and get a side of avocado instead. The soft scramble is perfect. Scrambled soft to perfection but the potatoes!!! They are theee most perfect potatoes. Perfect crisp on the outside but they still stay soft on the inside. Perfect seasoning of rosemary and sautéed onions. So addicting. Added touches like sea salt on the avocado make this place so special. I mean, even the butter is high quality and the toast is evenly buttered! Service: The staff is top notch. Warm and friendly. They always check on my coffee. When the owner is there, he always checks on everyone. read more

The worst customer service... as a multi business owner for multiple years. I never encountered such discriminatory acts for a customer based business as I received today.... I watched on numerous occasions as staff members ignored minority potential customers in favor for their more white clients. I entered their establishment with my 80-year-old father my four-year-old son, and when they glanced up upon us, they intentionally kept removing us and pushed it to the back of the list they secretly was telling other people to come sit down so we have to intentionally wait outside in the freezing cold in one of the coldest days in San Francisco now I'm no stranger to being a black man being refused service, but I thought we was passed the day of segregation and the civil rights action stuff read more

The people serving here are super friendly and prompt. Easy to get sat and the coffee is quick to be refilled. I used to come to the old Eats multiple times a week. I do miss some of the old items, but the culinary instincts have generally risen and the price increase reflects prices going up everywhere. I've always been a fan of the chilaquilles they used to serve, so o was excited to see a new version called the Tosta Quilles pop up on the new menu. I have to say I really appreciate that the kitchen was SUPER HELPFUL accommodating my request to have a side of bacon sliced up and added on top! I mean it would probably take someone at the table quite a bit of a mess and maybe 4-5 minutes to slice that same bacon to be put on top. Having a kitchen so willing to use their sharp knives and cutting boards to do the same thing in 15 seconds is SUPER APPRECIATED! As a resident of the neighborhood, I do enjoy the revamp and look forward to coming back in future visits. Especially with how helpful the kitchen is. I do genuinely appreciate the service staff for their promptness and refilling my coffee multiple times. read more
