ShaenaMarch 6, 2015Delicious French style brunch and bottomless mimosas! I tried the Croque Madame - a brioche breakfast sandwich with Gruyere cheese and a fried egg on top served with a side of fries. Yum!
Melike YersizJuly 20, 2014I loved the beef carpaccio. The fried green olives stuffed with blue cheese were a great snack. Sriracha and jalapeños were a great touch to the mac & cheese.
Jordan MJune 17, 2017Salmon over ratatouille was a delight, but menu had a confusing mix of cuisines
Karen Dear AstinOctober 12, 2013Open late. Chicken n waffles, bacon jalapeño Mac n cheese, filet- amazing. Amazing. Amazing mix of odd ingredients that really make the food top notch.
Norris TranJune 18, 2012Mac & cheese w/bread crumbs is a great starter for two. Pan seared salmon is warm with nice flakes. dessert & goto: vanilla bread pudding w/fresh rasberries & creme fraiche. (3 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more
Stephanie YOctober 26, 2014Always love their ribs and truffle fries. Note to make rez for brunch since it may look empty but it is usually all booked with only seating at bar.
T KJanuary 4, 2017An awesome place with great service. We had salmon, chicken breast, tortellini and risotto. All was excellent.
Claire 🥑June 20, 2018This place is a gem! Get the sweet & spicy chicken and waffle w/ a shishito pepper!
Ja VNovember 5, 2012Ordered a dungeness crab omellette. It was good, but I think the babyback ribs would've been a better choice. Next time! The service was phenomenal, and unlimited mimosa was a winner!
Ben CoffeeMarch 31, 2015Very shareable appetizers. They have some truffle fries called Crack. Great dessert menu too!
Emily FaraoneJune 11, 2016Delicious salmon for dinner and their fries are appropriately named crack. Fantastic wine selection as well!
The ribs, truffle fries, octopus, flat iron, everything!
Best late night dining in SoMa in terms of choices for your organic vegan to the carnivorous gourmand. Truffle fries. MUST HAVE.
Manik RatheeAugust 6, 2014Everything here is great. The Mac and cheese and burger combo are to die for.
EmmisaurMay 31, 2014good happy hour menu. open later than other restaurants in the area for late drinks on a weekday.
Hana NaSeptember 11, 2012Get a late night snack of Chicken and Waffles with Maple Syzurruup. Lunch 11:30 to 2:30pm. Dinner from 6-midnight.
Lee HoffmanMay 8, 2013The chicken fingers and waffles appetizer is delicious. Brussels sprouts are pretty good too.

Jess FalkenthalJune 29, 2013Their side of mac & cheese is phenomenal. And it's big enough to be a light dinner.
JoyOctober 25, 2010Great ambience. Friendly bartender. Scallop appetizer was yummy. Loved my duck confit. Had a bite of filet mignon and it was good also.
Michelle BaccusOctober 20, 2012Carpaccio is killer definitely a must...as far as drinks go do yourself a favor with the Manila Cocktail
Manny is awesome! He tells great jokes. Amazing service and the ribs are to die for. French 75 is a great choice too.
Manny makes a mean cocktail. The burgers and ribs are some of the best in the city.
Shadi MehraeinJuly 23, 2009They serve till 1 am, the setting is awesome and chill especially after a night out, the food is great, the drinks are delicious, and the service is always phenomenal.- Jessie NewburnJuly 20, 2010Sunday Monday Fundays. Lovely space, vibe, warmth ... And fantastic food and wine even late into the evening. Especially late into the evening.
Kat 🐱September 15, 2016Expensive but food aren't even that good. Spicy meatballs are pretty good. Mac and cheese, grilled octopus and brussel sprouts are very average.
If you're vegetarian, order the Vegetable Tower. It's not on the menu, but you can make a request with the server. Oola's menu is usually meat-heavy, but this dish is delish!
Kyle Else realtor®June 24, 2012Kitchen is open late. Hard to find a great meal like this in SF late night 11pm'ish.
Alden CatesMay 22, 2015Bottomless mimosas are always good, chicken and waffles was okay but nothing amazing.
Brandyy SkyeNovember 24, 2011mussels are frickin amazing! & when you are finished the leftover sauce is perfect for dipping :)
Kyle VillyardJune 29, 2011Leave room for the desert! Warm chocolate caramel cake is amazing! Don't leave without trying it.
Janet RouseJune 3, 2011Traveling from Chicago, Mac N Cheese was delicious but must get is the Strawberry and Peach Crispy, it's simply AMAZING!!
janice bailonSeptember 18, 2009There isn't a thing i wouldn't recommend on this menu! Must haves- Chicken truffle ravioli, ribs, and crackfries... i mean parmesan truffle fries. your taste buds will tingle
the seared ahi with hearts of palm is my absolute favorite ANYWHERE. Highly recommended! And Happy Hour is the bomb. DA BOMB.
Cat ReynoldsApril 7, 2011Ravioli is good. The mozzerella burrata is even better. The duck on a caffeine sauce was good but the portion was teeny.
The pan roasted chicken breast is especially yummy. The last time I had it, it was served on goat cheese/white wine risotto.
