Anton ShusterAugust 12, 2014The warm egg salad sandwich is NOT VEGETARIAN (it has some anchovy in it). If you don't mind small amounts of fish, get it because it's great. If you mind, they have a seasonal vegetarian sandwich.
heatJuly 19, 2013The menus change constantly to keep up with the seasonal ingredients. Il Cane Rosso is inspired by old Italian meaty fare, with the rotisserie as a focal point. Order at the counter, and find a seat.
Tasting TableDecember 2, 2014There's no shortage of Bay-facing outdoor seating around the Ferry Building, but we love this brunch menu. The olive oil fried egg sandwich is fantastic. Read more
Steve OatneyJanuary 28, 2014Yummy breakfast, on the patio/pier by the bay. People, boat, and bird watching with a fantastic weekend farmer's market down the way. Loved the egg scrapple!
Their beef & pork bolognese pasta is amazing! Ordered it through Caviar/Fastbite and got it so hot and quickly! :)
Canyon BoslerMarch 30, 2015The garlic, thyme and roasted mushroom sandwich is quite excellent, particularly for the price. Also, the outdoor seating is a nice option.
Doc PopDecember 26, 2011Try the Little Gem salad - The Ferry Building secretly houses the best salad lunch spots. This salad was a little heavy on the dressing, but still great. Worth adding pork too.
Ashok LalwaniNovember 8, 2014Ordered Soup and half sandwich. Though they messed up my order, the food was really delicious: Celery root soup and Garlic Thyme Mushroom sandwich. Long line and crazy wait time during lunch hours.
BommyAugust 10, 2014House-made yogurt with roasted strawberries and granola for breakfast. Soup and half beef brisket sandwich for lunch.
John HurleyJuly 13, 2013Quinoa is great, love the almonds - add a touch of salt. Pork belly could use a sauce, bit dry, but decent flavor and great roll.
Closed for good. I will miss their farro porridge, scramble, and egg sandwich 😢
Keith Allen-NiesenJuly 17, 2013Here is the view. Food is good. You order at the front and just grab a table.
Lynn EldenOctober 6, 2013Loved the soft scrambled eggs and garlic toasts. Outside seating has a nice view of the water. Try the hot sauce.
Amy YFebruary 28, 2015Lunch time wait is long, but the food is excellent. My favorite is the egg sandwich with anchovies- Santiago EdoFebruary 24, 2016The combos with sandwich and salad or salad and soup for lunch are great and worthy!
- Lears FoolOctober 24, 2015Outdoor seating, and get the half salad/half sandwich. They are so flavorful, half is enough.
Masha IovevaJanuary 7, 2012Egg salad warm sandwich and a salad. Pair with Blue Bottle coffee for the ultimate Saturday SF brunch, then stroll through the Farmer's market.
Andy MatuschakJune 1, 2014Wonderful casual lunch. Salads are wonderful, especially with the braised pork addition.
Hello Vino AppJuly 6, 2012You can't go wrong with the crostini dishes on the happy hour menu. And... The Hello Vino app can help w/ a wine pairing. ;)
Everything is so good here! The chicken salad sandwich is my favorite.
Benny WongSeptember 23, 2011If you're in the area looking for lunch, the sandwiches here are CRAZY good. Slow cooked pork + brisket are really solid, delicious choices!

Priya BriggsFebruary 26, 2013Try the fried organic egg sandwich! It comes with a crispy pancetta and oh so yummy:)
Zak Marrero-HowiesonJanuary 28, 2012The pork shoulder sandwich is AWESOME! Coffee is very acidic. Overall, impressed with the food. Just don't bother with the java.
Laura ChinSeptember 22, 2011Meat eaters, do a half sandwich of the brisket and the slow cooked pork for an instant party in your mouth
Lauren IngramSeptember 7, 2012Long long wait at lunchtime, but the iced orange & cinnamon coffee is well worth it.
Broken Farro Porridge is creamy, full of flavor, and not too sweet. Love.
jonathan gettingerJanuary 10, 2012vegetarians try any of the veggie sandwiches esp. the butternut squash with radicchio
Rose ANovember 15, 2011Half sandwiches available. Try the Beef Brisket or Warm Egg Salad and spot it on Foodspotting.
Jeremy KrantzAugust 14, 2014Decent (although pricey)food but priceless view if you opt to sit outside at one of their numerous tables
- Stewart AlsopJune 12, 2011Try the Range Brothers Slow Braised Pork Sandwich - The chili-lime salsa just makes the sandwich!
