Just asked to clarify and the employee escalated it right away from zero to hundred at me "you wanna talk to my supervisor?!" Woah I'm not starting a fight with you, I'm just asking a question. They must get so much daily crap here and are so frustrated. Food is fine, as consistent as other McDonald's. Soo Busy inside on weekends. it's family central: dogs, kids, and seniors, from all walks of life. everyone here just trying to enjoy a meal. Standing room near the order/pickup area is packed and everybody is in each others way. There's something in the air here and Everyone is just extra angsty and wants to get their burgers Fries and shakes!!!! It's much more pleasant when it's quieter like later in the evening.

I think we can all agree McDonald's is going to be McDonald's, but I found this place at least for the majority of time to have great service. There has been a few times I've ordered for curbside and waited more then 15 minutes, whereas if I ordered inside, it would be out in under 5 minutes. The food at least for me has always been good, the food is hot or warm, nothing cold, and when I add extra pickles/onions, they always deliver, same for when I ask for big mac sauce on my burgers. The Ambiance is going to be your typical McDonald, you have kiosk, folks eating, maybe your occasional homeless person here and there but all in all, I find it safe, routine, and just a McDonalds I can rely on.

Half the time I come here the tables, bathroom, and some parts of the dining room is dirty. Plus it doesn't help when homeless people grab other people's food without permission and just make a mess. I know it's a tough job to clean after people that leave a mess but it's hard to eat if someone just takes my food and makes a mess that forces the workers or management to fix. Other than that I never have a problem getting my order or have issues with the employees. Most of the workers are very friendly and quite understanding all the times I been here. They don't have to give free food or replace a happy meal for me because someone took my food or grab the wrong order. Mostly order eat in here or to go, but if the place is clean and not busy I spend extra time doing my work and eat my 10pc chicken nugget meal. I haven't tried drive thru or uber yet, but I never had to wait more than 10 minutes for my chicken sandwich value meal and 2 small fries. Still not a total waste of time and this mcdonald's location has its downs but the ups are mostly good that makes it worth my time and money. Anyone craving fast food or just hungry give this location a try and see how it goes from there.

    Not comparable to San Jose banh mi but probably the best in SF. Their bread is made fresh every…read moremorning as opposed to other banh mi shops in SF and East Bay which pick up their bread from a distributor. They don't make their bread by the hour but they make a huge batch for the day each morning. They use quality flour and the prices are a little higher but the bread is fresh and crispy. This type of banh mi reminds me of the $1.00 banh mi that my family used to eat back in the early 90s. The baguette is much longer and the bread tastes the same... nowadays the banh mi shops have adapted a thinner baguette and the bread is not the same recipe as back in the 90s, it's either too airy or too hard and sharp. So this banh mi here held some nostalgia within me as we were eating it. The bread tastes exactly like childhood. Firm not too airy and crispy (ghon as we would say it). We ordered different types of banh mi and enjoyed all of them. There was even a sardine banh mi which is something I'd see growing up or eating at home only. Not a lot of banh mi shops offer sardine version. I had the fish cake banh mi, sardine banh mi and chicken banh mi while my husband had the cold cut banh mi. We both thought it was good for SF standards. The street is very busy and there is no parking. My husband waited around the block as I went in to order and wait for the banh mi to come out. It's not really much of a long wait. And this area is pretty out of the way for most. We just happened to be around here to see what this shop had to offer. This is a hole in a wall kind of place. So don't expect any sort of ambiance. Get your banh mi and go. Most families buy their banh mi for kids as snacks in the afternoon after schools done, or at least that's how I remember my parents doing it for us !

    Omg the smell of fresh bread outside the banh mi factory is sooo enticing. Even if you're not…read morehungry when passing by here, the fragrance of freshly baked baguettes will draw you in. This was not my case though. I called an Uber from across the city to come here for lunch just to get my hands on these banh mi straight from the factory and figure out what the hype's about. After ordering at one of the four kiosks inside the banh mi factory, I perched on a little red stool at one of the two tables to wait. While waiting, I observed multiple other patrons stop by and each pick up two huge bags full of fresh baguettes. One patron even carried out a giant plastic container packed with them. At the shockingly affordable price of just $1 per baguette if you order in-store, it's no surprise this place is popular for good reason. When my order was called, I picked up my lemongrass tofu banh mi and passionfruit tea from the counter. I tried the lemongrass tofu banh mi immediately. The baguette was very crunchy, and the filling was quite savory. The tofu itself was seasoned and had a dry, meaty texture, but it wasn't fried and didn't actually carry a strong (if any) lemongrass flavor, so I found it a bit lacking in authenticity, creativity, and texture. I decided to order another banh mi to-go. I had been eyeing the fish cake, so I went with that. I wrapped up the rest of the tofu banh mi to save for later so that I could try the fish cake banh mi when I got back. I think the fish cake was an upgrade from the tofu, but what I most noticed was the excess of mayo and some sort of dripping white sauce. That's on me for not requesting light mayo when ordering, but as for the liquid white sauce, I'm not sure what it is but didn't taste authentic at all. I'm really not a sauce person except for the classics like fish sauce and soy sauce so just something to note for next time. Also, the passionfruit tea, despite having real fruit chunks but no passionfruit seeds at the bottom, wasn't very good and didn't have much passionfruit flavor. It kind of just tasted like a really sugary fruit tea, which was a letdown. I conclude that the banh mi here are good but could be a bit better. The fresh baguettes are the main selling point. I don't think the other ingredients (tofu, mayo instead of egg butter, etc.) were quite up to standard, and what I got at least quite didn't quite live up to the hype. I'd be down to come again though and try more menu options.

In fact, I was quite forlorn having presumed this location of Limon was permanently closed. I liked the way they prepared their pollo à la brasa because the Peruvian-style chicken was consistently succulent. I'm guessing maintaining the quality and profitability of a sit-down restaurant has been economically challenging since this was not the only Limon that has closed. I was encouraged that they kept the space and reinvented it into more of a fast food/takeout operation replete with a cartoon chicken mascot and an animated mural along the northern side of the building. I came by in the middle of a weekday afternoon, so I wasn't ready to eat on the spot. I decided on a takeout order of the $21.95 Half Chicken Pollo à la Brasa with two sides. I think I overdid the starches and went with the Plantains and Yuca Fries. I only noticed afterward that I could've gotten salad or cole slaw instead. When I got home and started to eat, I was immediately disappointed that the chicken tasted overcooked with the breast piece particularly dry. That was too bad because the skin from the rotisserie had the familiar flavorful seasonings. The plantains were tasty albeit a bit oily, while I had to nuke the lukewarm yuca fries to bring them back to life (Photo 9). Next time, I'll time my arrival closer to lunch or dinner, so I can dine in-house. My hope is that the chicken will be closer to the quality level I recall from Limon. FOOD - 3 stars...sadly overcooked when I ate it at home AMBIANCE - 4 stars...the space itself is fine, much more casual SEEVICE - 3.5 stars...the staff was nice enough TOTAL - 3 stars...fast food version of Limon not quite there yet RELATED - Exploring the Mission?

I waited about 5 minutes and they got it to me quick. It seems like they have a bunch of these premade bowls/fish plates ready to serve. Cheap and good for SF. The ambiance was clean and not much of a sit down place. The poke combo came with a water, seaweed salad, rice and a bunch of salmon. You can choose either spicy or shoyu sauce (I got shoyu). It tasted very fresh and I really enjoyed it however I would recommend buying something else because it didn't quite fill me up. However overall really good.

    Basa Seafood Express should be the cheapest Hawaiian-style poke in SF. Their poke bowls are very…read moreaffordable, at $8.5 for salmon and $11 for tuna, either spicy or shoyu flavors. I ordered spicy salmon and upgraded to combo for $11.99, which came with: rice, seaweed salad, and a bottle of water. I also tried the fish ceviche (they offer both fish and shrimp options for $7), it's a great deal for the price honestly. But keep in mind that it's a takeout only restaurant, so there is no dine in seatings. Overall, the portions are generous and the fish tasted fresh. The flavor was decent, not the best poke I've had, but definitely not bad either. If you're looking for amazing poke, this may not be your spot. But if you want a filling, healthy and budget-friendly meal (which isn't easy in SF if you're not going for fast food), it's hard to beat the value here.
