    BREKKY with modified eggs (fried instead of scrambled) and avocado
    Clarissa C.

    Very bright, friendly brunch spot! The servers were friendly and attentive, and on a weekday morning, I had no problem getting seating and getting food quickly. The brekky plate was delicious, especially the bacon and the potatoes! Highly recommend!

    I came here for Saturday brunch with a group of friends, and we got seated immediately. I ordered a captain crunch breakfast burrito with avocado. I really enjoyed how flavorful and spicy the chorizo and sauces were. However, I prefer crispy potatoes in my burrito, and these were very soft and mushy. Service could've been better. We got handed the check before I was even halfway done with my burrito. I felt very rushed for no reason, as the restaurant was half empty at the time. Overall, I'd say the breakfast burrito here was pretty decent but not worth going out of your way for if you're not in this neighborhood already.

    Captain crunch and slinger burritos

    I love a good breakfast burrito, so when I saw Heist on social media, I knew I had to try. The place is definitely cozy with mostly indoor seating and a few tables outside, but my party of 2 was able to get seated immediately when we showed up on a Saturday just before noon. We ordered the Captain Crunch and Slinger burritos to share, and both were so good! The scrambled eggs were so soft and fluffy, and the home fries were elite. Both proteins were super flavorful as well, though I think the chorizo was slightly saltier because of the light spice. The sauce on the side was so good too - I ended up taking 1/3 of my burrito home, and it was so nice that they automatically packed a sauce container for me. We also each ordered an iced americano, which was light and smooth but nothing to write home about. Our server was friendly and attentive, and despite the constant turnover, we never felt rushed. The space is a bit small with tables placed close to each other, but it still feels pretty open with the high ceilings, plants, and sunlight shining in. Such a great neighborhood spot for brunch - will definitely be back!

    Heist Platter

    I recently went to Heist Restaurant with a friend on a Saturday morning around 10am. We luckily beat the rush because right after we were seated, a line started forming outside. Definitely recommend getting there early. We sat inside, and the space was bright and airy with a really welcoming vibe. There's also outdoor seating available, which looked great for a sunny day. We ordered the Heist Platter to share. I'm not usually a big breakfast person, but everything was absolutely delicious. Even splitting it, I left feeling completely full. The portions were generous and the flavors were on point. The French toast with the topping was not too sweet, but still delicious. My friend, who is a serious cold brew fan, ordered their cold brew and said it was really good. High praise coming from someone who drinks it all the time. Overall, great atmosphere, great food, and worth the visit. I'd definitely come back to try more dishes on the menu.

    Amazing breakfast! It was perfect. I got the Heist plate (lots of food): Egg, pancake, home fried (crispy goodness), secret sauce, toast and homemade chorizo patties (has a little kick to it). Can't wait for my next visit!!!

    The sweet potato fries were DELICIOUS! Their house coffee was also phenomenallllll!! The vegan burrito was very starch-heavy and needed more salt and maybe some more flavor (it said it came with pickled onions but I didn't see any). The regular burrito was good. Overall food could have used more salt, but the presentation was great. It was a little packed so it felt kind of herd-like and was super loud, but the customer service was still pretty good. Worth the price in my opinion.

    This is a terrific breakfast/lunch restaurant when in San Francisco. Small, but mighty. Lots of choices for pancakes, burritos and other breakfast dishes. I had the Drea's Burrito...very yummy. I do need to warn you that the aioli is very spicy order on the side if you are questioning. Our service was excellent! Everyone was making sure we were happy. The food came out quickly, for our party of 5. Cute, cozy space. Interesting furniture. Welcoming and inviting. I heartily recommend!

    Delicious omg

    Definitely a hidden gem. Get the Heist platter or w/e it's called, it is incredible and worth the money!! Their espresso drinks are on point, their menu was formulated with a complete thought, and the art on their walls is gorgeous and gets you in breakfast mode. This may turn out to be my new SF breakfast spot as it is quite near the hotel I frequent. Give it a whirl and enjoy the berry butter on the decadent French toast. Yum. Oh, incredible service, too.

    Breakfast Platter
    Amy G.

    i absolutely love the breakfast platter here but i do think there's a bit of inconsistency in the quality of everything. sometimes the bread is super hard/crunchy and sometimes the potatoes are overcooked/dark. but the eggs are perfect every time and i love how thick the french toast is. the meat breakfast burritos look delicious but the veggie breakfast burrito i got one time had completely uncooked spinach wrapped it in which is not my preference. would recommend the platter over the burritos. come before 10 or after 12 to avoid the wait!

    Patrick M.

    Solid vegan breakfast burrito, fast quick and friendly service, and was very prompt and efficient! The place/decor is a little too plain and sterile for my tastes, and while the burrito was really tasty, it was missing something "homey" that I can't quite but my finger on. For $32 for a solo person, I just would have liked a bit more.

    BREKKY CAPTAIN CRUNCH BURRITO
    Jaimelene S.

    Everything we ordered was amazing! Such a cute lil cafe with good simple options. I really enjoyed their chorizo in the captain crunch burrito (had a good kick) and the house sauce that came with most of our food. The bread was so simple and soft. The servers were kind and helpful. I would suggest this spot.

    Albert K.

    Cute breakfast spot. Fits about 30 people or so and some outdoor seating. Quite popular on weekends for lunch. They have some very cool drinks- including a horchata and a custom Cochata. Never seen that. Prices are a bit premium for $20 or so and a $5 Coke. I ended up trying the Slinger burrito and it was very good! Enjoyed the eggs and the chicken sausage. The horchata wasn't overly sweet either so it was perfect.

    Shannon Z.

    The breakfast burritos here are so amazing!! I came on a weekday during lunch and it was pretty packed but no wait. Interior is really cute and bright. The breakfast burrito was incredibly savory and had the perfect blend of meat, potatos, egg, and melted cheese. The salsa it came with is a bit on spicy side but gave it a nice kick!! Also ordered the avocado toast for a healthier option and it was yummy as well. Food came out pretty fast for how busy the were and service is good.

Service: The baristas were extremely friendly and diligent on getting drinks swiftly made to order, while also being knowledgeable and helpful with questions on the menu. Wait time: Less than 10 minutes between ordering of food / drink and it being ready when going at 10am on a Sunday. Matcha: The Velvet matcha had a good matcha flavor without being overly sweet and a good balance between ice and actual drink. The matcha foam that goes on top is also not excessive while providing a more deep flavor profile that the actual drink lacks a little in. They do also have lids on a side table to allow for you to take your drink on the go with both a straw option and sip lid built into the same top. The matcha crepe cake was okay but did not really have a strong matcha taste to it and the crepes themselves were not very flavorful either. For Presidio Heights, Q Specialty Coffee is a solid tasting matcha with plenty of natural lighting and a great place to catch up with friends or colleagues while enjoying a beverage.

The strawberry latte on the other hand was very overpoweringly flavored of the strawberry jam :(. I felt it tasted a bit artificial and didn't really let the matcha taste come through, I would stick to-the hojicha. 4.5/10 For food we got the fish sandwich and the pork katsu sandwich. The fish sandwich was decent, the cheese was cold but the fish was nice and flaky. I wish the fish skin was a bit more crunchy but I did like the slaw and sauce on it. 6.5/10 The pork one was soooo good and juicy. The crust was super crunchy and surrounded by the soft bread was such a nice texture. There was a sweet sauce which balanced the sandwhich nicely. Would get again! 8/10 We also saw the Japanese breakfast bento which looked realllly good and the salmon with matcha broth that others ordered and would def come back to try those! TLDR; would get the pork katsu sandwhich and hojicha. Would come back to try the bento and the salmon in matcha broth!!

It was refreshing and not too sweet and it had a smooth taste. I then ordered the cheese tart. It was a little cheesy but a bit flakey like some in SF ( It's national cheese day). It was also savory and tasty. I then had to try their Ube tart. The purple tart was a bit sweet and a was deliciousness and a bit creamy and flakey.
