    Undercooked baked pork chop

    Formally known as Jojos cafe I decided to order from here on door dash. Upon eating my baked pork chop over rice I noticed the pork chop was undercooked. What a waste of $19

    First time to try their pan fried noodles here, very yummy dish, like it! As always, very nice and helpful staff

    While meeting up with friends, we decided to have dinner at Wei's Cafe. The place isn't large, but they do have a few tables, including a long one that can seat a small group. Our friends told us that Wei's Cafe, also called Jo Jo's Cafe, is a popular spot among locals. Their menu features American breakfast favorites, traditional Cantonese dishes, and Vietnamese cuisine. They also serve a few Hong Kong-style dishes, which I hadn't tried before. We chose to share a few plates, including Chicken Chow Fun, Spicy Garlic String Beans, and Basil Tofu. The food was good, and we all enjoyed the meal.

    Crab Rangoon

    The Crab Rangoon look good, but it was soggy not crispy. Seems like it was fried awhile back and just reheated to serve. Will not order again.

    This restaurant used to be JoJo's and has since changed its name to Wei's, though I believe it's the same owner. The food is still the same great quality, with no changes to the price or portion sizes. It's one of my go-to options for Friday dinners and works well for both dine-in and takeout. Sharing the updated menu for reference.

    Laksa noodle soup, good depth of flavor
    Ellen H.

    Really pleasantly surprised by the big menu and delicious food. Portions are big and prices are not expensive. We got beef pho, laksa curry noodles, garlic noodles with chicken, fried crab wontons, iced milk tea and iced lemon tea. Everything tasted fresh and flavorful. Lady server was friendly and the food cake fast. We'll definitely come back to try other dishes.

    A small, humble Chinese restaurant with a really warm and welcoming vibe. The staff were polite and genuinely kind, and you can feel the honesty in how they run the place. The food was simple, comforting, and very tasty -- the kind of meal that makes you feel at home. Nothing fancy, just good people and good cooking. Really enjoyed the atmosphere and would happily come back again.

    Chicken Garlic Noodle Plate
    Marco Y.

    Needed to drop something off at the UPS store and was in the mood for garlic noodles. I got the Chicken Garlic Noodle Plate and it was amazing. Generous portion of both chicken and noodles. I paired it with an Iced HK Milk tea which hit the spot on a pretty warm day. Service was very fast, only had to wait about 5-6 minutes for everything to come out. Staff is great as well.

    Baked Pork Chop
    Jenny X.

    Came here after a long run and it filled me up! Good: - The curry laksa soup was amazing! - The baked pork chop was also amazing - so much flavor - The portion sizes and prices were great- we even took home almost the whole dish since we had so much food left over. - The place is super clean and modern inside, super cute and nice fairy lights and tons of seating, no wait Bad: - The food took a little bit to get to us, and it was really cold inside on a super cold day - The servers don't speak great english so it's a bit hard to communicate Overall would come again for the value.

    Jo Jo's Wonton Soup (House Special Wonton Soup)
    Victor K.

    Wei's cafe also known as Jojos is a Cantonese/vietnamese cafe specializing in Hong Kong style dishes, Vietnamese food, and American breakfast. Upon entering you are transported to a warm inviting cafe that pulls you away from the busy streets of ocean ave and into a homie atmosphere. This morning seemed especially cold and foggy so I ordered the jojo's house special wonton soup. I should have payed attention as I thought it would come with noodles. Overall it was a very simply clean soup with plenty of toppings. Although I didn't really find the dish to be particularly special for a house special, it was filling enough to start the day and warm me up. Definitely would recommend if you're looking for a simple mom and pop shop! Service: no frills and straight to business 4/5 Ambiance: Wei's cafe has a rustic charm to it; Brick walls and natural elements all around 4/5 Food: jojos wonton soup comes with bok choy, some shrimp, wontons and a few mushrooms. 3.5/5 Overall rating: 4/5

    Very disappointed with a recent visit. They mistreated my wife and 3 year old son -- tossed out their food when they were using the restroom and still had their personal belongings at the table. Right before they used the restroom, we asked the waitress for a Togo box. So with personal belongings, an empty Togo box and full plates of food on the table, the wait staff tossed everything away. When we asked about it the waitress just said "huh". No apology, no restitution just pure ignorance. And we even tipped. Been a customer since 2007. Never coming back. To hell with this place. Rude!

    The portion is too small for this price
    Shinn T.

    The taste is normal, not really good, but not terrible. But the portion is too small for the price they list. $18.99 Walnut shrimp, smaller than other Chinese restaurant. Or even Panda Express Beef Chow Fun, you can see how thin/ small the portion is, not enough for an adult, my dad needs to eat something else to be full after that. Not recommend, will not go again.

    Hot Hong Kong Style Milk Tea
    Leung T.

    Jo Jo Cafe has changed its name to Wei's Café but it looks like nothing else changed. same menu, same insides and thankfully, almost same prices. It's one place that has only increased prices a little bit. BTW, you have to like the Hong Kong Style Café or 茶餐廳 thing to like the food.

    4.0 stars for breakfast--see dinner review below (5.0 stars)There are sooo many good brunch spots…read morein SF. In my opinion Lapisara ranks in the middle due to the other excellent options available. Seated immediately--had a reso but on a Wednesday morning not really necessary. It took a long time for the single employee to get to us but we weren't in a hurry. Cappuccino was very good in a cute "bear mug" and very reasonably priced. We shared a pacific omlet--not much crab, lots of shrimp, and nice swiss cheese/scallions but tasted kind of fishy--potatoes were only avg. Son said huevos rancheros were average. Price point good for SF and portions adequate to share. Location convenient so we will try dinner there tonight before a comedy show nearby. Dinner-5++ stars; 4 of us Had dinner last night-6pm-reso but not needed. only one other group dining. Single Waitress was great-we let her know we needed to leave in about an hour for a show and she timed everything perfectly--we even had time for dessert. we ordered so many items that she brought over an extra table--we shared everything family style. Most Yelp reviews only mention brunch but the dinner was awesome--service; food: taste/quality, presentation, portions, prices we phenomenally low for SF ($200 with a bottle of wine for 4 people). We started with the garlic butter clams-small but tasty. Tuna tartar was excellent quality and enough to share. Samosas were more like empanadas--very good with peanut sauce so good it rivaled my own home made. We continued our culinary adventure with crab fried rice-delicious, a large portion and my son who lives in SF and has tried dozens of crab fried rice ranked it in the top tier. The pacific catch rice noodles with crab was also excellent-big portion, lots of crab, tasty. Final entree was their specialty-Mussaman Curry. Wow, tender meat/potatoe "stew" with a very unique flavor from the star anise/cinnamon and peanut--to die for. Creme Brulee was very good with lots of fresh fruit accompaniment My only complaint was a very limited wine selection. Lapisaia will become one of our regular spots for dinner!!!

    Came here on a Saturday for brunch…read more I got the Holy Chili Bomb Basil Omelette. It had ground chicken and veggies inside, and the chicken and basil were the flavors that stood out. I wouldn't call it spicy at all. The omelette felt small for the price and there wasn't much filling inside. It came with a side of potatoes that were really good. They had a nice crisp on the outside and were soft on the inside. I also got a regular coffee, and they do unlimited refills. The place was busy for brunch, and I liked the bear theme. Some of the coffees came in bear-shaped glasses, and some of the lattes had a decorative bear made out of ice.

My daughter, the least adventurous of us, went for the traditional French Toast, but it was not merely a serving of French Toast. This was as perfect as French Toast can get - whether it was the fine balance between egginess and non-soggy texture, or the thick maple syrup that enhanced rather than smothered, this was perfection! My wife ordered the Seafood Gumbo Deluxe which came with a a quarter of a crab, shrimp, mussels, chicken, Andouille sausage, accompanying the tasty gumbo! This was two meals in itself, it was so satisfyingly large. The meat was cooked to perfection. She appreciated that the seafood did not have a rubbery texture. I ordered from the specials menu - the Creole Sampler! If you are on the fence on whether to order the Chicken & Andouille Sausage Gumbo, or the Red Beans & Rice w/ Andouille Sausage (both are really delicious!), why not enjoy both with this sampler? Included are two pieces of fish that are SOOOOO tender (one was draped over a hushpuppy, and when I touched it with a fork, it fell to the plate - call that tender! Moist and flavorful, too! It was difficult to state which was my favorite, as it all depends on which one I first tasted (the Chicken & Andouille Sausage Gumbo), as the burst of flavor hit my taste buds. Had I tried the Red Beans and Rice w/ Andouille Sausage, or the catfish, I probably would have chosen one of those as well. This is my fourth visit here, and still, I never find myself disappointed in the food served here! Highly recommended!

Sitting outside on that peaceful corner watching the neighborhood wake up is a charming experience. Only downside of dining al fresco: a fly landed on my sausage. But credit to the staff - the waiter noticed and brought out a fresh plate without me even having to ask. That kind of attentive service goes a long way. The food lives up to the hype. The lemon ricotta pancakes are the star for good reason. They were light, fluffy, and not too sweet. The crispy potatoes were excellent too, just be warned they come out scorching hot (I burned the roof of my mouth going in too eager). Give them a minute to cool. Upside of parking on the top of that steep hill is that you'll burn off your breakfast calories getting back to your car.
