Enjoyed the salads quite a bit! Staff was kind and receptive to modifications. Also, unlike many other similar restaurants, they provided adequate amounts of pita for hummus/dips. Recommend the watermelon based salad, hummus, beet dip.

My favorite brunch spot, I can’t believe they aren’t more popular than Zazie (which is also great). I’ve been going here for years, and now that we no longer live in SF we visit every time we are in town. The Boston Benedict is my favorite by far. The hollandaise is lemony and delicious.

Located in Inner Sunset below Golden Gate Park, parking is doable. We went on a Sunday around 11:30 and there was still an inside table left for 3. I never saw more than one or two parties waiting, especially as there were outside tables. The turnover is slow though; there were people who came before us that were still sitting there when we left. There was no service, but the workers were nice enough. They seemed understaffed. We got the Turkish sausage flatbread . The sausage was smoked and there was a decent amount of other toppings as well. The Jerusalem eggs benedict had perfectly poached eggs, and the hollandaise sauce wasn't too heavy. The Dutch baby was a bit too dense for me. It tasted like Hawaiian custard butter mochi. There was tabasco sauce, maple syrup, and orange candied peels in syrup (plus other condiments I didn't use) conveniently already on every table.

We went here two days ago for brunch. We were disappointed by the inattentiveness of the staff (getting water took over ten minutes, even after we ordered our food), but the food was alright in my opinion, so I overlooked the service part. As someone who has always been and is still in the service industry, I understand that staff gets tired and mistakes are made. However, I don’t overlook dishonesty. I always tip in cash. I know how much it’s appreciated. We paid with a card and wrote “ cash” on the tip line, leaving the cash (19%) folded in with the receipt. This morning upon reviewing our bank account we were surprised to see that an additional credit card tip was added to our total. We called and were given a super nonsensical explanation for this, and are still waiting on our refund of this additional gratuity. I’m pretty taken aback by this and obviously won’t be going back here, but more importantly I’d like to encourage everyone to double check their statements because this kind of activity is usually a pattern.

My husband in Turkish and we just stumbled across this place while walking to a park. We decided to pop in and order some food! He was so excited because he had often come across some Turkish food places that were not amazing but he says this place comes close! It is a good combination of Mediterranean and Turkish food, along with an American twist to it. We had the eggs and sucuk breakfast, it is not the typical way the Turkish eat it but it was still so delicious. We came when there was no one else in the restaurant so the service was great! Our server was so kind and chatted with us for a little. He says the owner is Turkish so pretty authentic! I recommend this place. We wish we could try the dinner foods to see how it is. Oh– we of course had the coffee and a delight!

Turkish restaurant that's expanded to general Middle Eastern bangers and a nice fusion with some US classics. Go ahead and order something that doesn't sound familiar. And it's not even anywhere near full a lot of the time!Only ick is the steep prices even by SF standards

Nice cafe to visit. Quite a busy place so be ready for a wait. Lamb chops were delicious and so was the chicken Milanese sandwich! The chicken wrap and cigar shaped filo dough with spinach and feta were just ok. Nothing great. We also had some Turkish coffee which came with a sweet delight which was lovely. The coffee was ok. Overall good meal but surely would’ve liked it better if the staff had even a slightest smile on their face. The attitude seemed very dull and dry.
