Walking down Chestnut St while visiting San Francisco, I immediately noticed the name of the shop and knew I had to stop. So glad I did! They have an amazing variety of cheeses from France, but also from other countries. They also have great prices on fantastic wines. I found one of my favorite French cheese (St Felicien) which is difficult to find in the US and the French women working at the store were nice enough to make me a sandwich so I could eat my cheese to go! I wasn't able to get to a fridge for hours but really wanted to get this hard to find cheese. It was so delicious and their baguette bread is perfect. We also got the Toulouse sandwich which was fantastic. All in all: great food, amazing service and in a great location. You cannot go wrong here!

Everything tasted super fresh, the bread was perfectly toasted, and adding the peppers gave it that extra kick it needed. Simple sandwich but seriously so good. Service was quick and friendly, and I loved the old-school Italian deli vibe inside. Definitely feels like one of those classic SF spots you stumble across and end up wanting to come back to. Safe to say the half-eaten picture speaks for itself . Definitely recommend!

After having my tuna sandwich on wheat, I completely understood why. Everything tasted incredibly fresh. From the tuna to the tomatoes, pickles, and avocado, you could truly taste the quality of every ingredient. I'm getting hungry again just thinking about it! I'd also like to give a special thank you to the owner, Paul, who was incredibly gracious and accommodating during my visit. Great customer service always makes a meal even more enjoyable. If you appreciate fresh ingredients, outstanding flavor, friendly service, and a welcoming atmosphere, I highly recommend stopping by Luca Delicatessen whenever you're in the area. As an added bonus for my fellow wheelchair users , there is accessible seating available, making it easy to enjoy your meal comfortably. Thanks again, Paul and everyone at Luca Delicatessen!

Yes the answer is the Marina but where in the Marina? The full answer is the Marina Super to the rescue since 1932. You will find plenty of food and drinks here and it's a local Supermarket and not a chainstore like the Marina Safeway. Here you find the essentials for the daytime and nighttime celebration whether it's wine and cheese in SF. They have aisles of drinks and lots of food available. They also serve a breakfast burrito ( Marina or Mission style burrito?). Hey they even have chestnuts available at their location on Chestnut.

But we finally made a reservation during OSL weekend, so it wasn't busy at all (just a steady stream of diners). We sat at the window, which was nice because you can people watch. My partner and I shared dishes: meatballs, black pepper bucatini, and the corn caramelle. Hands down, the corn caramelle was the star of the show - it was so wonderfully rich and creamy. The corn inside was so sweet, and the bits of corn on the outside were charred and buttery as a great contrast. The other dishes were tasty too but the corn was truly the standout. I would recommend this place to friends! I would love to try other things on the menu but honestly, I would come back just for the corn caramelle.

My friends and I snagged the window seating on a Friday evening, and the place was packed. Super cute and cozy atmosphere that I'd probably pass up if it hadn't been recommended, to be honest. We ordered to share: house foccacia, nor-sting-ya pizza, radiatore arrabiata, and their short rib dish. Every single dish was scrumptious and seemed masterfully crafted. If I only had to pick one, I would highlight their nor-sting-ya pizza which encompassed hot honey, tomato, spicy sopressata, roasted garlic, whipped ricotta, mozzarella, and fontina. Too good!!

I can't give The Candy Store anything less than 5 stars due to their incredible candy selection…read more I think they carried all the heavy hitters of Swedish candy in every flavor imaginable. We got so many different varieties of candy and everything was great. Only annoying part is they have to scoop it for you. Which I get in a hygienic practice, but extremely inconvenient to get a large selection and try many different flavors. You're subject to the scoop they do and don't get to really individualize your bag.

They didn't stop to welcome me in or offer help! We only talked when I went to the cash register.
