Green dream
Parita A.

Had the green dream and it was delicious. All the flavors melded so well together. The sandwich was large and filling. Service was great. A ton of veg/vegan options and a cute spot for a quick lunch!

Excellent sandwiches, pizza, salads and cookies! It's located on a not so clean area of the mission, we almost missed the shop since it is very unassuming from the outside, almost looked more like a convenience store entrance with graffiti Small bare bones interior with a couple of tables The sandwiches are great- made with fresh bread, packed with delicious ingredients. I loved the Mary's with the cooked bell peppers and melted cheese. My husband loved his green dream- I didn't like the tapenade sauce, but he loved it. Sometimes sandwich/pizza shops don't have the best salads- but my Nico's salad was huge, with tons of colorful toppings- I was happy with it If you're wondering whether to get the cookies at the counter, the answer is yes! Their freshly baked cookies are a must!

This is a great place to grab a sandwhich or slice of square pizza. The variety of sandwiches all were great and the pizza was super tasty. The staff gave great recommendations and customized our orders. There are only a few seats so its best to get take out but its a good spot in a fun and clean neighborhood in San Francisco. Also, if you got kids then ask for chocolate milk. Its awesome! ! !

The Mary's with added tomato.

Cute little sandwich/coffee shop tucked away in the Mission. I had the Mary's sandwich and it was so so good. I added tomato. I want to come back and try out some of the other sandwiches. Some of them are so interesting, and I bet the salads are good too. They have an eclectic selection of craft beers and sodas. The employees were super nice. When I went in there was the cutest scene of several senior ladies enjoying coffee and bagels while chatting. Seemed like their hangout spot. Who doesn't love a Golden Girls vibe? Yep, I'll be back to test out other sandwiches, although it will be hard not to order the Mary's.

Zimmerman Sandwich The sandwich consists of a unripe olive oil, which adds a grassy flavor, textural crunch from the lettuce, thick slice of turkey, and the creaminess from the avocado. This is all sandwiched in between bread, which was a bit hard to chew but I like the flavor of the bread. The seasoning was well balanced from the freshness of the lettuce, avocado, and olive oil, the savoriness from the turkey and additional salt and pepper. I got this to go, so the service was fast in preparing the sandwich. Worth it.

VEGAN REVIEW: this morning I google searched for "vegan cinnamon roll SF" - how did I not know this place is in my neighborhood before now?! The cinnamon roll was so good I gobbled it up before getting a photo. Great coffee too. Then I stuck around long enough get lunch hungry and the Green Dream did not disappoint - fresh bread and deliciously unique ingredients made this vegan tummy very happy! All at very reasonable prices. Also can't wait to try some of the cans of unique craft beers they have in the fridge. This cafe has a very chill vibe and friendly folks, there's wifi and you can hang out and get some work done with sun streaming in the wall of south facing windows. This is a new favorite spot for me!

Turkey Sandwich Famous Turkey Sandwich
Garrett L.

There aren't many places left in SF where you can get a sandwich under $10, but Fox & Lion Bread delivers a great sandwich for just $9 (as of May 2024). I got the famous turkey sandwich for $9, and while there might be more gourmet sandwiches in the city, this is definitely one of the best quality/price sandwiches around. As you might expect from a bakery, the bread is fresh (an absolute must for a good sandwich), and it was surprisingly big for just $9. They even included roasted red peppers, which are often an extra charge at other places. I only wish they included tomatoes and spinach for no extra charge, but it's understandable given the base price of the sandwich is only $9. It would be easy to miss this place if you're not looking for it (there is not much signage out front), but with delicious sandwiches, pizza, baked goods, and more for reasonable prices, this is a place worth seeking out. You can also order and pay ahead online - I did this and my order was ready within 15 minutes during peak lunch time on a Friday.

I was excited to try fox and lion. Unfortunately for me I paid $7 for a loaf that had more in common with a stone than it did bread. Yuck.

it's quiet in here on a weekday at lunch. order then find yourself a seat. pizza takes a while…read morebecause theyre making it fresh for you. nice interior, clean and spacious. you can even hangout upstairs where there's even more seating. the larger tables are downstairs. solo dining upstairs would work. service was kind and gave me lots of water to go with my meal PIZZA was GOOD. tried the buffalo chicken. it's more of a rectangle shape and just a good size slice. pretty filling! you will be full with just 2 slices. lunch time hours offers half pie so you dont have to buy a whole pie

I grew up in the Santa Cruz area where pizza was basically a weekly staple for our family. However,…read moreI never tried Detroit Style pizzas and was always curious about trying Square Pie Guys; from the reviews online it's highly praised as one of the best pizza spots in SF. I ordered the - Buffalo Wings - How Mushroom The buffalo wings were delicious and although on the pricier side, was just good enough for me to overlook it. It comes with green onions as a garnish with a Bleu cheese dip and carrot sticks. The only negative thing about this was that there wasn't enough carrot sticks. The How mushroom was recommended to me by a staff member and I thought was just a little plain; it was on the more bread side which I'm pretty sure is the standard for Detroit style pizza. In all honesty, I wish there was a bit more toppings to accommodate the amount of bread to topping ratio as this felt more of a cheesy bread sticks from Pizza My Heart. My favorite thing about this place is there were chilled glasses with taps for still water and sparkling water, which was free. In honesty, the sparkling water is an essential need to kill the grease in our meal. Overall, the staff were pretty friendly and helpful during the ordering process, the pizza itself wasn't for me. Would I come again? Only if I'm craving pizza and happen to be in the area.

I've ordered takeout from Gioia twice. As a collegian on the…read morePeninsula, I grew up on Frankie, Johnny and Luigi Too! pizza. It was my favorite for 50 years until a couple weeks ago when I ordered a delivery of Gioia. Wow. I stayed over in The City again this past weekend and had Gioia delivered again Saturday. I designed my own pizza with a Margherita Pizza base and then added pepperoni, Calabrian chilis, and anchovy on the side...well done/crispy. The roasted tomatoes are key...depth of flavor, umami-heaven. I'm a pain in the ass, so I call to make sure my pizza is made to spec. The staff, led by Kait, is unparalleled in their willingness to help. I just cannot recommend Gioia enough. I wish there were one in the 925, but Berkeley is as close to my home as a Gioia is based so far. I've not had a pie from Berkeley, but I believe Gioia is completely committed to maintaining the quality of their pizza. Nothing else comes close IMO. I know there's no zealot like a convert...but I'm not just being a fan boy. Oh yeah...the arugula-avocado salad is YUM, and the dressing for it like crack. DO not forget to check the box for utensils. I did not...California is a request the utensils state...and that's how I know how committed Gioia is to customer service: Kait, CALLED ME today after she'd heard I was frustrated. I can't imagine a customer not being thrilled with Gioia.

Slices are great, and very decent price…read more Love that they have napkins, water, condiments ready to use on the side table. Limited seating with one table and some pillows against the window but to be fair, it's a very thriving area to walk around.
