    Get the mascarpone French toast and go all in by adding scrambled eggs and millionaires bacon. Eat so much your hands start to shake.

    This brunch spot is run like a tight ship! The service is fantastic and the food is home cooked favourites with a twist. The Rancho eggs were a great balance of sweet and savoury. Get the Mill bacon!

    A hip, noisy and modern spot, Kitchen Story serves up unique twists on classic brunch dishes, fusion dishes and, their fan-favorite item, billionaire's bacon, which is tossed in brown sugar then baked

    Best food I had since arrived in SF four days ago. “Open Face” has everything i love: well made rice, tasty beef, egg and avocado. Staff was very helpful and polite. Totally recommend it.

    Red and green eggs were delicious and beautifully presented. Strong mimosas too. There's a bit of a wait during peak brunch hours.

    We had a really enjoyable dinner here. Cozy romantic atmosphere, delicious food that reminds of the food in Blackwood (Marina). Spicy beef rolls were great 👍

    Great new spot! Restoration Hardware meets cozy kitchen with lots of personal touches. Gorgeous natural light, too. Loved the snowed spinach scramble, and my coffee was never even half empty.

    Food is really tasty especially the millionaires bacon. Service could be a bit more friendly especially because it all comes with a price tag! Try the Bloody Mary

    The mascarpone stuffed deep fried french toast is amazing; crispy and not overly sweet. Order a side of millionaire's bacon (if you have a sweet tooth) and you'll be stuffed.

    Had their "finger licking" special (sweet breaded chicken) and the "dancing Queen" (wagyuu steak over rice and long beans) and loved both. The chicken was the star of the show

    This place is so good it doesn't make any sense. The millionaire bacon is amazing and, you basically can't go wrong with breakfast.

    One of the best brunch spots in SF - love bringing my friends from out of town. Weekend afternoon lines are ridiculous. Go right when they open to avoid the lines!

    Long lines so expect a wait but worth the wait. Eggs are incredible and omelette are the most fluffy I have had. Highly recommend the Ribeye Omurice

    The potatoes are delicious. Bottomless mimosas are ace, and strong. I got the red and green poached eggs. They were good. The potatoes stole the show though

    Great brunch but be ready to wait in line, gluten free bread available. Dinner Asian fusion- huge portions and limited gluten free options if sensitive to soy sauce

    Frisco Benedict is absolutely delicious, Red & green Benedict delicious and light! And the millionaire's bacon is an absolute must, it's sweet, smokey and so so good.

    The ricotta pancakes are small, which is great because you'll have room for the tri colored breakfast potatoes and bottomless diner flavored coffee

    Amazing - better in a group as food is served with a heavy hand but delicious - and prepare to wait but they will give you a mimosa as you do

    With its tremendous serving of savory and sweet crisped pork belly, creamy avocado and liquid yolks, Belly Rancheros makes all the other breakfasts jealous.

    Make sure to order millionaire's bacon--it is superb! Even if you are not crazy about bacon it is worth it.

    The Big Eye Sandwich is succulent and delicious. The scallops are perfect and the millionaire's bacon is amazing as always. The avocado rounds out the experience nicely.

    Crazy line for weekend brunch. Understandable, since the rib-eye omurice is one of the few substances known by man that can soak up 20 bottomless mimosas. I mean, have you seen the size of that thing?

    The millionaire bacon definitely lives up to the hype. Had two eggs and the MB. The coffee and espresso are really good.

    Menu is all over the place but get the samosas and pork belly to start. And have the burger as a main (it's maple infused).

    The deep fried French toast is outstanding. But it's enough food for about ten or twelve people

    The mushroom omelet is decent. A dash under salted and they skimp on the hollandaise sauce. But it is cooked well and the butter croissant is flakey and crunchy

    Amazing brunch place with delicious fresh California cuisine. The slow cooked bacon is a scrumptious eye-closer!

    Go for the french toast and millionaire's bacon. But be prepared to wait a while - they can be super slow in the kitchen.

    Kitchen Story is at the top of my favorites list. They have the best Tom Ka "Mom's Coconut Soup", but everything there is delish.
