Definitely a good place to have brunch with friends. It is off the beaten path in that it is located on Treasure Island. So if you are there to take some pictures and want to have lunch...this is the place to go to. Good selection of menu. Staff are very friendly and attentive.

This place is absolutely perfect. Brunch, dinner, afternoon chill.... Whatever youre looking for, this is it. Some of the best food in SF. Always beautiful, always available. Make the trip. Stop at a wine tasting room on the island after!

Great food and atmosphere!A special place on Treasure Island.I have been going here for years since they opened.Luckily I found it because of working on the island.I found a jazz band playing a couple of weekends ago and loved it!Added a picture of an opened empanada with the chimichurri sauce!

Charming and unexpected outdoor dining experience. Wonderful food and reasonably priced. My burger was perfectly cooked (medium-rare) and the sauce rich and tangy.

There are two main reasons why I am giving a 2 star to this place.1. The hostess is very inconsiderate. She made us sit under the sun without a shade after being 15 mins late from our reservation. It was a low table and could not enjoy at all with my dog being very active with the food being accessible in a low table2. The prices are crazy. They gave 16 thin slices of fruit for $10. This is a different level of price gorging in the bay...This is a large detour anyhow and you can skip this place for many other much better ones in the city or in the east bay.

A nice surprise on Treasure Island, a place that has few restaurants. I love the atmosphere, the interior and exterior hanging out areas and fire pit. I would love to hang out here and have a glass of wine in the evening. The menu had some interesting items. I enjoyed the flavor combination of the tri-tip sandwich. The meat was very fatty and chewy. Could definitely use better quality meat. But overall a pleasant, unique spot.

The place has great atmosphere, design and food. Unfortunately today the atmosphere was somewhat spoiled by a nearby music festival and by the fact that the restaurant was moving furniture to prepare for a wedding. Our greatest disappointment however was the complete lack of gluten free options for celiacs. Several items on the menu could easily be made gluten free with small changes and I hope the restaurant will consider doing that.

3/7/21: My first visit. My friend suggested this place on a sunday morning.The ambiance of this place is really relaxing, they have 1 firepit seating area.Food:I got the avocado toast with sunny side up egg and it was refreshing. My friend got the french toast and he loved it so much. Btw while we are ordering the server mentioned that all of their stuff are homemade(restaurant made) including their hot sauce and the cream cheeseon top of the french toast. It was one the best cream cheese i tried very silky and creamy.Cleanliness: The place is in prestine condition really neat.Service: Though we visited during covid thing, we got our order quick. Their serverd are really nice and friendly.Really great place for bruch. Please if u are reading this hit the like button or let me know what food did u try so next time I will come to visit i will try it too.Thank you.#supportlocal

This is a Really Nice Restaurant!!! 5 Stars for Food Tastefulness, Service & Atmosphere.Our Server Jr. Was a Phenomenal waiter. He provided excellent service 👏👌. And also helping to pick which menu items were tasty to what our mood for food was that day. He was very knowledgeable about what was inside each dish.He also mentioned that the Owner who creates the menu was a Chef at a Michelin star restaurant. Which explains the quality and flavor of the Food here.They also have a really good vegetarian menu selection!We are definitely coming back Here!Theres another restaurant you have to pass when Exiting the Freeway to go here. But it is definitely worth passing and driving the extra 2 mins it takes to get here. You will love it!

Authentic sweet staff + tasty food and drinks! Nice spot to refresh on treasure island!

Review №13

I came alone on one sunny Sunday afternoon and the cafe was still quiet busy. I was simply told to wait but the service I received during this short interaction was rather cold, as if theyve got enough or maybe too many customers and larger groups to take care of. I felt neglected as a solo eater.

Lovely place to sit down a while and grab lunch or a cocktail. The gardens and decor are beautiful. I came on a Saturday afternoon (in winter) and it was not crowded. The service was a little curt and slow, but not detractingly so. If you are looking to book an event space, I included a photo of that area, and also noticed a Playground directly across from the restaurant— good to keep in mind!

An oasis in the desert kind of experience. A pair of weary cyclists, descended upon treasure Island without a plan for nutritional intake. A quick search revealed Aracely Cafe, as the only place even open on this long holiday weekend.The charm was immediately evident as we were welcomed by the friendly staff. We hadnt realized the kitchen hours literally just ended, but we were invited to stay and eat anyway! We were even allowed extra time to rest while they closed up shop around us.The menu was a delight for the imagination. So many terrific sounding dishes. I went breakfast (see photo), my companion went burger. A+ all around.You must make a trip to this delightful cafe. Only open breakfast and lunch. They also host events!

Step into the best kept secret on treasurer island ! Well best kept on this side of the bay because it was obviously a hot spot for those who frequent this amazing cafe often.I had the Eggs Benedict and I couldnt believe how good it was. To my surprise I realized it was on a bed of quinoa instead of a traditional English Muffin. It paired perfectly with the poached egg, hollandaise sauce and bacon. I will definitely be back again !

Review №28

Nice place to grab some coffee, a snack or drinks. They have expanded the outside patio area now so there’s plenty of space to stretch out and relax on those nice days on the island.They used to have meals too but that was before Covid. This last visit we only came in for coffee and kale shake.

Whatever you do, do not have your event here! The owner Linda is an absolute horror to work with. She told the photographer he couldnt have a fork because those are for the guests. She made the people from the previous event take my phone telling them it belonged to their party. I put it down for no more than 2 minutes and it was gone. I had to drive all the way to Berkeley to get it back and she didnt want to pay the toll and gas I had to spend. She didnt think anything was her fault no matter how many things she was responsible for messing up. Youre better off reserving a public park.

Review №48

Lovely patio and lovely weather. We ordered the steak, chilaquiles, and the quinoa chicken grain bowl. The meat was highly rated by the person who had it, the other two dishes were decent but not exceptional. Drinks were good and strong (although they accidentally charged me for two drinks and I did not catch it until I left). The star of the outing though was their olive oil cake which was very flavorful, well baked, and herbaceous.

So we entered the restaurant at around 3pm. When we called earlier they said last seating would be at 3:30, and when we got there they said take out only, to which we replied that we called and they told us 3:30. The host reluctantly gave us the table by the corner after mentioning that. On the plus side, the decor was nice and the seats were comfy.After a bit, we got water served in a wine bottle with two empty glasses. Upon pouring out the water, a dead fly comes pouring out. We mentioned this to the server and she brought us a new one but she seemed to brush it off as not a big deal, when cleanliness should be key in this time of pandemic.Next, we had a view of the kitchen. We noticed multiple cooks/back of house staff not wearing masks, wearing masks dangling from their ear, on their chin, or completely taking it off as soon as they “thought” they were out of customer’s sights. This is very unsanitary considering they are the people prepping out food and the fact that they’re just breathing/coughing all over our food with no face covering. There was even one young man who appeared to be an employee who was socializing with his coworkers in view of everyone in the main dining area with no mask over his face, it was tucked below his chin.Next, I found a small bone in what’s supposed to be a boneless roast chicken sandwich. Luckily I’m not a kid, and didn’t choke on it.Upon mentioning all this to the “cashier”, she did nothing to remedy the problems, again just brushing it off like the server. I also saw the cashier take off her mask as she entered the back. She didn’t even offer a discount for the meal. When I asked what are you guys going to do about this situation, she replied with “what do you want me to do about it” in which I replied with “you should make sure staff wears masks at all times”Also, not once did anybody check up on us after seeing our meal.Food was subpar, tastes okay but was really simple, French toast crossiant tasted nothing special, and the roast chicken in the sandwich tasted like it was from the Safeway deli.

Ive been here twice for brunch and both times the food has been excellent. Eggs Benedict and f their Eggs in a hole were both tasty and filling. On a couple of days when the weather was nice it is a pleasure to sit out and dine here. The only draw back seems to be that service is slow even when they are apparently not at all busy. So put your taste buds on slo-mo and dont be in a hurry to pay and dash away.

Went to Treasure Island for the first time and found this little gem. In the midst of all the construction and empty streets. Really cute venue and also looks like people can do weddings and photos here. Delicious food, incredible. Lots of coffee refills with good coffee and they even provide you with a coffee to go container upon leaving, such a nice touch!
