Terrific food! We sampled from the entire menu and nothing disappointed. I have a sweet spot for Saag Paneer, and this one was delish. Extra special thanks for hosting us on Christmas Eve. We'll be back for more!

Thank you for keeping me sane, am after am, except for Sundays. Wish I could support you enough to keep you open earlier, longer, and all 7 days of the week. Cheers! The Lavazza drip is insanely good, and you anticipate my need with a smile. Sandbox Bakery items on your menu makes you golden. Menu remains limited, but I suspect and worry it's out of survival, just don't turn it into a downward spiral. Keep it up and don't give up on us!

Awful, dreadful, slow, and pretentious service. After a month of trying, hoping it would turn around, I'm over the "who's next!?!" and dull attention. The guys are ok, even on the friendlier side. This could be the best coffee in town, but rename it "slow-on-the-go" + scratch the 'tude and newcomers won't feel fooled.
Glad I succumbed to the many good reviews and decided to try it for myself. Asking for quite the risk by bringing it to Indian food loving friends, it hit home and served its purpose.
We had eggplant dish (forget the name), saag paneer, chicken tikka, chicken achar, and busha (curry lamb) - all good. Naan was decent. Samosas were quite yummy. Rice was blah. For mere $60 we feed the five of us.
Pakwan is a quick & easy + tasty take out choice worth a return visit!

Neighborhood: Outer Richmond
Art Bistro makes for a cozy neighborhood cafe. Granted, I don't live in the hood and would probably not have sought it out hadn't it been for the generous reviews here on help and due to a dear friend ;-)
We had a good caramel macchiato and Depth Charger. The cookies we got were good too, and we enjoyed our treats in the cozy sofa in the back of the cafe. It was full of throw pillows, that went well along with the rest of the comfy-looking decor.
Only con, it got pretty cold after an hour of hanging out, even in the back. But, the place is fairly small, so I can understand that the staff likes to keep the door open to ventilate the air.
Perhaps I'll be back to try a sandwich or a salad. Then again, why would I? Unless I had the right company :-) That's all!

I need to go back for a burger, and I'm certain that I'll be giving Moe's Grill a fourth star easy!
The service was great, in spite of the fact that the place was packed, and our breakfast was pretty good. French toast and eggs Benedict got good reviews, as well did the mixed green salad with smoked almonds, pear, and Gorgonzola. The fruit bowl is one of the best I've had in town. Above all it was fresh and generous portions for the price.
In sum, I'll be back with expectations of being swept away by the yummy looking burgers peeps kept ordering around us.. :-)

Cozy, friendly service, and an extensive coffee menu with generous cake slices and cookies tempting you too.
Con, gotta have the sweetener and can't do with brown sugar.
Slightly dive looking, but otherwise plenty of space and free wi-fi.
I'd go back but probably feel more comfortable hanging on my own in the daytime, rather than in the evening. It was open as late as 8:30pm when we stopped in for a spicy Chai and okay drip coffee.
I won't seek it out, but I wouldn't mind stopping in for a caffeine fix again. Especially after reading from another yelper that you can get sweetener at the counter :-)

Papalote Mexican Grill
Category:
Mexican
Neighborhood: Mission
Papalote is over rated and over priced. The small space, which otherwise is well decorated, quickly gets really loud. Also, for some odd reason I've been cold both time I've visited and kept my jacket on, which is always anti-relaxing to me. It enhances the in-and-out mode, but with those prices and the wait on the food we've had, it's seems like a paradox. Considering the decor too, I'd like to feel like sticking around and hanging out.
The food is bland. We ordered the bean dip, shrimp quesadilla, and veggie fajita, and besides the servings being on the skimpy side, there was just not much seasoning to any of it.
It's the second time I'm back, and the second time I again got annoyed with the rushed service at the counter.
Next time, I'll remember to disagree on going to Papalote's...
