    Cute and spacious cafe by Precita park! They have a large menu and the staff was very friendly,

    Very messy sandwich

    I got a spicy tuna sandwich first it was very messy and not spicy at all I wish I got a salad instead. The box is way too big for it and didn't come with its anything not worth the price. More bread than actual sandwich

    Eh. Was looking forward to their Bahn Mi sandwich. The amount of tofu was insultingly tiny for the size of the sandwich. Beer tasted like the line was contaminated.

    My vieja and I took a celebratory trip to San Francisco (if you know us, you know why) and this place was right across the street from our Airbnb; why did we wait so long to go?! We're on central time, so we're up with the chickens so to speak. In other words, we had to wait to go and we were starving! The coffee is strong, the portions are generous, and the staff is very friendly. The portions are massive, I love my coffee but damn, I couldn't finish mine along with my food. We both got the precita breakfast sandwich and a side of tots along with a latte, Capp, and coffee. We walked in but waddled out. I heart this place and will be back when we visit San Francisco again.

    Adorable neighborhood cafe offering an extensive menu for breakfast and lunch/early dinner. The menu includes sandwiches, wraps, burgers, salads, pizza, breakfast sandwiches, smoothies, and so much more. We stopped in on our last day in the city and ordered coffee and breakfast sandwiches. The coffee was huge and very good. My favorite thing about San Francisco is definitely drinking hot coffee in a sweater in July and getting those warm and cozy Fall vibes. The sandwich was enormous. I thought the bread was a little dry and a bit much for the breakfast, but it was good. The eggs were a perfect soft scramble and the bacon was well done and crispy. The tater tots were so crispy and arguably some of the best I've had. The croissant was fluffy and tasty. Nice place, right across from a park, with big and hearty offerings.

    Ordered matcha will the powder isn't fully dissolved? Not cool.

    I stopped by today for a matcha pick-me-up because I was having a rough day, and I had a mixed experience. The cashier was absolutely kind, professional, and made me feel welcome. But the person who made my drink? Not so much. The powder wasn't even dissolved--like, I was literally drinking clumps of powder. It's as if they just tossed matcha in and poured milk over it without bothering to mix. What did I even pay my money for? Definitely disappointing on the quality side.

    Monday 10am: Precita Park Cafe has it all. Ambiance, laid back neighborhood gathering spot Friendly staff Huge parklet & interior space Homemade ingredients beautifully presented Location across from Precita park. Bring the kids, bring you dog On to the main event, Avocado Toast which met all my criteria. Bread tasty & actually toasted! Generous spread of Avo mash Seeds Radish Greens Two perfectly cooked poached eggs sprinkled with paprika Cut in half I could eat with my hands. I'm a heathen. The avocado toppings added to the taste rather than distract. Nice little spice kick. Side of bacon a bit too crispy for me, but that's subjective. Or a fan of salad for breakfast. Should have asked for side of fruit. Enjoyed my Numi English Breakfast tea with steamed milk. The weather was ridiculously hot & thankfully the parklet had a slight cool breeze & roof top protecting from the sun. What a pleasant 5 star experience lingering with my NY Times. I'll definitely return. If you're going to spend the day staring at your computer, buy something more than a cappuccino. Support Local!

    I called in a take-out order of a breakfast sandwich and a coffee. The food came out quickly and staff was pleasant. The breakfast sandwich was delicious and the latte was too! I would go back anytime I'm in the area.

    Great food, quick service (weekday) and good place to get work done. Friendly staff. Huge selection of bfast & lunch, as well as beer & wine. Mitchell's ice cream is always a plus! Support your local shops and eat here.

    Super-decent sandwich place near the office. My coworker suggested we take a 3-block walk to a Precita Park Cafe. It was worth it. Precita Park is one of those little SF neighborhoods that has changed over the years but maintained its charm. PPC is located right in the heart of the area. I can imagine this must be a cool spot to have a mid-morning coffee on the weekend. I had the Hot Chicken w/ chipotle aioli. Very nice. The bread was toasty and the cheese was melty. Just the way that I like it. They have decent-sized menu and I am curious to try out their other sandwiches. I am definitely going back.

    Awesome little neighborhood find Chai latte is delicious and my everything Bagel was just right found this neighborhood Jen while working close Amber was pleasant and very polite So many options on the menu can't wait to come back in and try one of many items on the menu Service was fast was very clean and some good tunes playing on radio

    Almond croissant
    Victor C.

    For the almond croissant I write this review. It's such a good pastry that they make at this restaurant. Always an excellent choice. It is pricey for what it is, but wow wow wow it's packed with flavor. Holds well in packaging if you're taking it on the go. I add the fallen powdered sugar to coffee when I get both. That's all I've been interested in trying from here.

    We were in the city visiting, found ourselves near Diamond Heights around dinner time, found this…read moreplace Ingredients on Yelp. High ratings, few reviews, but we were adventurous and decided to try it, glad we did. Ingredients is on a corner, looked relatively new from the outside LED "Open" sign prominent in the window. Once we walked in, however, we entered a different world from what we were expecting. Luxurious mustard seats, lots of tables for four, seating with high gray bench banquettes, reminding me of a 70s tune ("Diamonds in the back..."); retro vibe elegantly done with modern lighting and sconces. Not cheesy by any stretch, but in a neighborhood place you could wear sweats or a suit to eat at. Our waiter was Jackie, an enthusiastic young man who seemed like he wasn't just there to wait on tables. Throughout the evening he was easy to chat with while being knowledgeable about his food he served without being condescending. He made someone unfamiliar with the menu feel new-to-us dishes weren't going to be an experiment. We ordered the beet salad, the 8 ounce hamburger with fries, the mushroom risotto, and on Jackie's recommendation the Nepal BBQ ribs. In the meantime they served us house made brioche buns-warm, soft, delicate and chewy, flaky; reminded me of Texas Roadhouse buns, but far better. Served with a little olive oil and balsamic in a separated dish, you could eat them plain and enjoy the craftsmanship of baked excellence. We wanted more but in retrospect we would've been filled up with brioche and not enjoyed the meal. Tough choice. The roasted beet salad, served with shaved fennel, a beet balsamic jus, and an apple-citrus slaw that was fresh, sweet with hints of citrus offset by the fennel so it wasn't cloyingly sweet. The textures were enjoyable-the softness of the beets with the crunch of the fennel slaw, we anxiously cleaned the plate! Next came the risotto and the burger. What was enjoyable was the mushroom risotto-a refreshing presentation of toothsome Arborio, creamy yet firm, interplaying with a variety of mushrooms that immediately became one of the better risotto we've had, texturally excellent, not one note like most risotto, it came out hot but not searing; deft hands created a concoction that kept us going back for more. The burger was simple, cooked medium, but one of the best we've had in a very long time. We should qualify the burger as a cheeseburger as we were given a choice- bleu cheese or cheddar, we chose the bleu cheese and it was a good choice, just the right amount complimenting the veggies that came with burger. Oh, the fries-skinny, perfectly fried they stayed equally crunchy from first to last, served in a mini fry basket that was cute but it also showed they meant business, these fries were better than that Irish fast food place, and aren't they the iconic standard of French fries? IMO Ingredients is now the new standard. They were served with house made ketchup, excellent with or without. The ribs came last originally accompanied by a Mac and cheese but since we ordered risotto they served the ribs separately with a slaw. The ribs were fall-off-the-bone, but a little more savory than sweet , served with just enough sauce to accompany the ribs without being messy, easy enough to eat using knife and fork, the kicker was a hint of five spice, subtle enough if it's in your background, but not an annoyance if it's not. Flavorful, hearty, filling, delicious, We ended our meal with a homemade "apple pie," a creation made of thinly sliced apples, perhaps poached, with cinnamon, cardamom, allspice, along with fresh fruit, and a yummy scoop of "creamy"mango sorbet. Lots of surprising good vibes-no crust, all apple, not heavy; the mix of spices played well with each other; mango sorbet wasn't icy like sorbets tend to be, the fresh fruits added a touch of freshness to the dish that could have been sweet-centric, but not. A delicate yet satisfying end to a delicious meal. We met the chef, Sok, at the end of our meal, who had his culinary training n Kathmandu and expanded his repertoire in his world travels. He definitely knows how to elevate a good meal, and his Nepal and French influences add an understated flair to what he cooks. Sok takes tremendous pride in what he presents to the diner, evidenced by who he hires, and how each dish is presented. Dining in Ingredients is gratifying, from the dining room to the staff to the dishes themselves. More people should give Ingredients a try, a gem of a neighborhood find, a rarity in SF! Thank you so much, we have a new favorite restaurant!

We arrived at the restaurant around 12 PM. Unfortunately, the Crispy Chicken Sandwich was not crispy at all. I was also expecting it to be served on a burger bun, as is typical at most restaurants, but it came on plain white bread that was only slightly toasted. The sandwich also came with just one small piece of lettuce, which felt a little disappointing. The chicken was somewhat dry, so we asked for extra sauce. Thankfully, the sauce that came with the Eggs Benedict helped add more flavor to the sandwich. The Eggs Benedict were flavorful and cooked perfectly. However, we were told that about half of the menu items were unavailable due to limited supplies. Because of that, I had to substitute the potatoes for fries. While the fries were fine, I was specifically looking forward to the salsa and mini potato slices that came with the dish, so I was a little disappointed. The drinks were definitely a highlight. I really enjoyed the churro coffee and the mango lemonade. The service was nice, and the staff were friendly, which I appreciated. However, the cleanliness of the dining area was disappointing. The tables and tablecloths appeared dirty. When we poured the water from the table into our glasses, we noticed small specks of dust floating in my water floating inside the glasses, so we decided not to drink the water. The dirty tablecloths also took away from the overall dining experience. Overall, I would come back again, but I would have lower expectations next time since I felt a little let down during my first visit. The food was generally flavorful and well-seasoned, but the Crispy Chicken Sandwich did not meet my expectations. The Eggs Benedict were much better, and the drinks were delicious. With better food availability and improved cleanliness, I think the overall experience could be much better. I would originally rate this experience a 3 out of 5. However, because I was unable to comfortably drink the water--or drink it at all after noticing specks of dust floating in my water in the glasses--my rating has gone down to a 2 out of 5. Cleanliness is an important part of the dining experience, and this significantly affected my overall impression.

As someone who has works in the restaurant industry, I understand firsthand how challenging this business can be, and I have a tremendous amount of respect for the people who work hard to make a dining experience memorable. That's why I don't say this lightly when I say that our food experience tonight was extremely disappointing. We ordered the pork chop, which was okay, but the cabbage side was honestly hard to eat. I'm not sure if it was intended to be slaw or steamed cabbage, but it was essentially wet cabbage with very little flavor. The potatoes were decent, although the portion was quite small and they had a texture that tasted almost like boxed mashed potatoes. The biscuits were extremely dry and hard, and unfortunately, the butter served alongside them wasn't very good either. The spinach that came with the special was, without exaggeration, one of the worst parts of the meal. It had a very unpleasant taste that made us question whether something was off with it. There really wasn't another way to describe it. For a $44 plate, I expect the steak to be cooked properly, the sides to be flavorful and thoughtfully prepared, and the entire dish to feel worth the price. We also ordered a peach soda that was $10, which already feels very expensive for a soft drink. What was even more surprising was finding out that refills were not complimentary. That's something I feel should be clearly communicated when ordering. This is supposed to be soul food, a style of cooking known for bold, comforting, flavorful food. Unfortunately, our meal just didn't deliver that. Everyone at our table left feeling unsatisfied. We spent $163 for three entrées, three drinks, and two orders of biscuits. When you spend that kind of money and the food is exceptional, you leave feeling like it was money well spent. When the experience falls this far short, it's understandably frustrating and leaves you questioning the value. I do want to give credit where it's due: our server was wonderful. We had absolutely no complaints about the service. He was attentive, pleasant, and did her job well. I genuinely hope this feedback is received in the spirit it's intended. I know how difficult the restaurant business is, and I'm not looking to tear anyone down. I simply believe that when a meal costs this much, the quality, flavor, portions, and overall execution should reflect the price.

Every part of dinner further solidified Memento's status as a one-and-done deal. The mocktail we ordered was so syrupy thick, it needed watering down before we could drink it. Paella with sausage had a thin layer of crisp rice. Oddly enough, the tomatoey elements coupled with the type of sausage used reminded me of pizza. My bf reported that the steak in his surf & turf was undercooked & had a "funny" flavor. 'Nough said. As much as we'd like to support a neighborhood restaurant, it cannot be at the expense of good flavors & basic cooking techniques.
