    Eddie's cafe is good if you want a classic all-American old school diner. It's small and cute, filled with SF nostalgia decorations. They've got classic diner breakfast combos, a bit pricey for what it is but that's SF prices. They also keep the line moving to get folks in, so know that they have a seating limit (I believe it was 45 min dining limit) so they'll be taking your order and serving you quick. I really liked the intimate feel, you could have groups of 2-4 comfortably here. It's a no frills place if you want a quick diner breakfast!

    We stopped by around 1 PM and were pleasantly surprised to be seated right away. The restaurant has such a cute, cozy atmosphere, and I loved the unique mug collection on display. We ordered the Meat Lovers Omelette with hash browns and homemade biscuits, along with the Three Pancakes + Two Eggs combo with chicken apple sausage. The omelette was packed with the perfect amount of meat and cheese, and the hash browns were very crispy. My favorite part of the meal was the homemade biscuits! They were fluffy, buttery, and not dry at all. The buttermilk pancakes were also light and fluffy. The chicken apple sausage was a bit sweeter than I personally prefer. The owner also stopped by our table to chat. She was super friendly and warm! If you're looking for a comforting and homey meal in a cozy setting, I would definitely recommend this spot.

    Was looking for a brunch place after my doctor's appointment and stumbled upon Eddie's Cafe! Everything tasted SO perfect from the omelette to the hash brown to the waffle. I even finished the sourdough toast! I had some help from my husband but I normally would not eat so much for brunch! Everything about the omelette was so good! The hash brown was nice and crispy! The waffles had a nice crunch to it too! The restaurant was super busy so it took a while for the servers to get to us at times but all of them were super friendly! I will definitely be back!

    Sorry this is her

    By far one of the worst dining experiences I've had. When we walked in, the server was already arguing with another customer about his order while we waited to be seated. She didn't acknowledge us until I said "excuse me," and even then barely moved so we could squeeze into a booth. My husband wanted to try this place since it's been around since 1974, but today was definitely not the day. The server kept correcting me when I ordered my Denver omelette with cheese and light onions. My husband asked for his French toast first -- she said okay. Didn't happen (see photo)! The busboy was great and brought delicious coffee, and the sourdough toast was amazing though I did not appreciate it getting their way before my food. But the food arrived 15 minutes later: my potatoes were cold and the eggs were lukewarm. When I told the server, she dismissed it, insisting it "just came from the kitchen snapping if I wanted her to warm my eggs up? In a microwave no thank you! The cook did send fresh hot hash browns, which I appreciated, but the rest of my plate was still cold. Her attitude completely killed my appetite. The only positives were the friendly busboy who kept my coffee filled and the nice man behind the counter. Otherwise, we won't be returning. Today was definitely not the experience my husband & I hoped for. this place only got two stars because of the busboy and the Cook behind the bar. She's supposed to be taking orders and delivering the food. She felt short there. So sorry guys!

    If you want to experience a classic meal in San Francisco, Eddie's Cafe is the place! For 65 years this corner has been bustling. Shoutout to Ami for welcoming me in. The coffee mugs on the wall are an art piece. I ordered a hearty hot chocolate and it made me feel like a kid again. I ordered the pancakes, eggs, and hot links but I hear the hash-browns are amazing. Will have to try that next time. The memorabilia on the wall is admirable as well. The hot link had great flavor and this meal started my day on the right step. Locals love this spot, I met a retired legend that used to operate the cable cars years ago! You never know who you may run into, and Eddie's Cafe is the place to feel the true energy of San Francisco.

    Solid breakfast food. Nice cafe atmosphere and quick service. Fruit and whipped cream is an add on but waffle is solid on its own nice and crispy. The butter makes a big difference. Salmon croquettes okay, hot link looked better.

    You can't go wrong with Eddie's Cafe! This is one of the few old school breakfast spots in the area so it can get busy on weekend mornings. We waited about 15 minutes for a table before opting to sit in the outside covered area for our party of 5. Once seated, the waitress took our order quickly and suggested we get a round of pancakes for the table - we did not regret this! I ordered the bacon and egg breakfast which comes with hashbrowns and a choice of biscuits or toast. Usually I'm hesitant to opt for biscuits but MAN were these fluffy and fresh! Hash browns and bacon were crisped to perfection and the sunny side egg was not an ounce overcooked. At the end of the meal, the owner was so kind and came out to greet us! I can't wait to come back here on the earlier side (they open at 7:30 am) to sit at the counter or booth. :)

    Name of Establishment and menu

    The dining experience was significantly marred by poor customer service from the owner, who also served as the waitress and wore a white collared shirt. Upon expressing dissatisfaction with the salmon croquettes due to their excessive saltiness, the owner reacted unprofessionally and took offense. She became visibly upset and insisted that I should not order the dish again. Her reaction escalated to the point where she demanded the chef prepare another salmon croquette so she could personally taste it, repeating the request four times despite the chef's hesitation. This confrontational and defensive behavior overshadowed the meal and made the environment uncomfortable. Such a response to constructive feedback is unacceptable in hospitality. Given this experience, I cannot recommend this establishment. For a short five-minute drive, the Pork Store on Haight offers a far superior dining experience with better food and customer service.

    Behind every major city in America is a classic local diner. Eddies Cafe is the local diner of San Francisco. This place is the size of a living room, with very limited seats and no reservations.. but that's what makes this place so special. The food is exactly what it needs to be, simple and delicious. Two coffees, two breakfast entrees, and table pancake - under $50 and out the door in 30 minutes... now that's what you want on a foggy San Francisco Sunday morning.

    spinach, mushroom, and cheese omelette
    Emilie S.

    No frills, classic diner spot on divis. I recommend ordering the homemade biscuits, they come warm and with a side of butter. I ordered the spinach, mushroom, and cheese omelette and it came with hashbrowns. the hashbrowns are perfectly crispy on the outside. My partner had coffee and a traditional breakfast. I love that the coffee comes in a novelty mug. The staff is super friendly and attentive. It was only $40 for both of our meals, which is pretty good compared to the restaurants along divis.

    Perfect unassuming cute little diner on the corner of divis st. Walking inside is like stepping back in time to the 80's or something- cute little booths and seating at the bar if you are dining solo. Love all the memorabilia and pictures hanging on the walls and oldschool jazzy music playing. Wasn't too busy for a sunday at lunchtime We sat in the booths, standard brunch/lunch menus,nice and clean, great friendly service. Got the bacon and eggs with hash browns and toast, and a side of pancakes with fruit to share. Food arrived pretty quick. It was much tastier than expected for a simple meal- i don't know what they did but the bacon and hashbrowns were so good, they really hit the spot. Pancakes and fruit were also a nice way to top off the meal, we were pretty hungry so scoffed the lot. They really do the simple foods right here. And the prices are good too so you aren't breaking the bank on brunch. I really enjoyed it, and will definitely be back.

    Belgian waffle, eggs, salmon croquettes
    Jackie W.

    Solidly 3 stars. Eddie's cafe is a quaint diner with all the usuals. I tried the Belgian waffle with two eggs and salmon croquettes. I was intrigued by the choice of salmon croquettes in addition to sausage, bacon, etc., but I was disappointed by a lack of flavor and substance. The eggs which I ordered over medium were well cooked, and the waffle was fine. All in all, most of my meal was a slightly elevated hotel continental breakfast, but for $16.99. The interior is simple and somewhat crowded. The booths are snug. The wait was about 5 minutes for a party of 2 around noon on Sunday, and there were parties of diners waiting when we left. This could explain the "hurry up" attitude from the wait staff. Despite the mediocrity, a few highlights were 1) nostalgic vibes and 2) unique mugs for the coffee.

The menu is very clear about what you're in for. - Lavender Sgroppino: basically a fancy alcoholic frozen lemonade, everything I wanted it to be! - Irish Coffee and Parmesan: this was... interesting. The base drink, basically a frozen espresso martini, was good, but the topper cheese was SOOO salty. If that's your vibe, try it! We switched out for a brut, which was lovely. The apps were excellent! We got the smoked salmon sliders and the 100 layer, both of which were well-designed and very tasty. Our waiter was excellent.

This place was included on a list of Sunday brunch recommendations. I had seen other fellow Elite Yelpers recommending it, so I wanted to try it. We had the French toast sticks, very good, as well as the classic breakfast dish, my partner had the breakfast burrito. Both dishes were decent, but we were there for the company mostly. The restaurant was quaint and cute, more compact, but had a secondary overflow area in a separate part of the restaurant. There were restrooms on both side, and Causewells served as a chill morning for us with our friends. The location had a cute bar set up for evening link ups, and the service was very friendly. The vibe is more of what you go for the food is decent but won't necessarily blow you away. Try them out and see for yourself. For tourists, or visitors of the city, the location is in the Marina District, so Golden Gate Bridge is near if you'd like to sightsee. This location is also very close to the Presidio theater.

Then there are smash burgers which has been the craze for a few years already. Then there are burgers known for their sauce like the animal style sauce at In-N-Out . Burgers in SF can get cheesy . Everybody has any reason to say it's a better burger whether it's for the purple onions, pickles , or buns. There is a place which serves the Cali Burger. On a West Portal stroll there is a burger place which sells the Cali Burger. The Cali Burger means fresher ingredients usually locally sourced in California. Calibur is the place to get an organic grass fed burger. I got the double cheese burger with Calibur sauce. It was tasty and it had great flavor along with a soft bun. The fresh grass fed cheese burger pairs well to eat with cheese fries in SF. The fries were crispy and saucy and got a bit messy. Calibur also sells chili cheese dogs along with different flavors of shake including Neapolitan. Overall a good place to fresh grass fed cheese burger on a bun. You can get organic beef that's grass "fed"with Calibur sauce "spread" and a soft fresh bun "bread"although they don't have onion rings or purple onions you can get raw with yellow onions or the onions that are "red" The organic ingredients locally grown under the California "sun" get a grass fed cheeseburger medium or well "done" take a shot with Calibur and I ain't talking about a weapon like a "gun" but get something loaded with beef and cheese on a "bun"

    I've been here quite a few times now, and it has honestly never let me down…read more I usually play it safe and order one of their burgers with fries which, to be fair, is hard to mess up--but on my most recent visit, I decided to try the monthly special: the Crispy Chicken Tacos. I'll admit, I was a little skeptical because it only came with two tacos, and I was starving. I almost ordered a second serving, but I'm so glad I didn't... or maybe I should have because they were that good. The chicken was perfectly crispy, and you could actually taste the hot honey without it overpowering everything else. It paired so well with the corn, slaw, and sauce, creating the perfect balance of sweet, savory, and fresh. And that squeeze of lemon on top? It brought everything together. Easily one of the best specials I've had in a while. One thing I also appreciated was how extensive the menu is. Since I almost always order a burger, I hadn't realized how many options they offer. My friend and I came with our kids, and everyone found something they were excited to eat, which made ordering easy. We grabbed one of the outdoor tables since we stopped by after the lunch rush on a weekday. The seating itself was nice, but be prepared to share the space with some very bold birds. One especially large bird was absolutely determined to steal our food. Obviously that's not the restaurant's fault, but it's worth mentioning if you're hoping for a quiet, uninterrupted meal outside. I can also see this place getting pretty hectic during peak hours, so if your schedule is flexible, I'd recommend stopping by outside the lunch rush. Overall, though, this spot continues to be one of my go-to places, and I'll definitely be back.
