I expected a fine breakfast, but the lady today at 9:30am (10/19/2021) was very rude and was not able to take our order as we wished. Never ever this place despite taste cakes we ate here, unfortunately.. and this is how I got my cold milk on top of 2 espressos and 3 cakes π Staff in any cafes should be nice and welcoming, I believe
This place is disgusting. My friend and I were on vacation and ended up here for Brunch. We both got the Golden Gate Scramble and both got sick after. It was way too salty, the smoke salmon takes spoiled like it has been sitting for a while. Coffee was nasty.
Simple in and out Coffee Expresso, Cappuccino, Mocha ... Lot better than you $5 coffee chain
The food is fine, but itβs nothing special. I paid nearly $10 for eggs and black beans. Must have been some impressive eggs. The diner is small. The staff was not overly friendly. I also wouldnβt call this place quick. It took 15 minutes to get my food. There are better places to get breakfast in this area of San Francisco.
I went here for breakfast and it was an ok place. The staff was very friendly even though it was quite full. The food lacked a bit of time in general. Way overpriced but you will probably not get any scrambled eggs below $9 in the vicinity.Still... Two scrambled eggs (as seen in the pictures) and two orange juices was $30. It was very expensive and flavorless.The place was very very small for the demand it had. The second floor was very nice for a quick breakfast and everything was clean but we were lucky to get a spot.We went there because of the reviews, but I guess its a bit over-estimated. Id go to another place for breakfast or brunch.Price 2/5Service 5/5Place 3/5Food 2/5
I got a cup homemade tomato basil soup along with an iced chai latte. The soup was spicy and flavorful and didnβt feel watered down or overly tomatoey. The iced chai was easily one of the best Iβve had in the city. Iβll be back again. Happy to have found this gem of a cafe.
Maybe I visited on a bad day, but the coffee was really weak and bitter.
This is one of my favorite lil gems. The Churasco plate is one of the best lunch deals in the city.
Very cool place to grab breakfast, quick snack, coffee, desserts and more. Cool views of people passing by from the window seats. Friendly staff that are good at making suggestions. Very excellent food and beverages. You will want to stop by more than once.
It wasnβt until I left that I understood the true magic of this cafe. The cook added a secret ingredient that would pleasantly remind me of the taste of my breakfast throughout my whole day!The secret ingredient was food poisoning.

We were in town visiting and the male waiter remembered us and how my daughter liked her oatmeal. That made each trip there special. Cant wait to visit again.
Grace makes the BEST Caramel Frappe! Its loaded with 3 shots. Better than Starbucks!The food is delicious and unique. A bit pricey but it is in Union Square so you should expect the higher prices. The food is worth the extra few bucks. I heard they have a sister location in the Mission that is super good too!
Good food and prices... Super fast service. Cool Cuban vibe. Had the Post scramble in burrito form... More than enough food.
I love this cafΓ©. It reminds me of the great, independently owned cafes of yore, before the advent of chain coffee. Whenever Im at the St. Francis or Hilton for work, I stop in here for Mexican Mocha. They have an extensive breakfast and lunch menu as well as coffee. Im glad theyre around.
I had coffee and a Napa Scramble burrito - I sometimes find egg burritos can be a bit bland so was pleased to see a tub of salsa included. Busy but service was pretty speedy and there are more tables upstairs. Overall a good option for no-nonsense breakfast or lunch (prices are reasonable for the area and its slightly out-of-the-way from the Union Square crowds).
This place has some fantastic sandwiches. Theyre a little pricey, but not more than what you would typically find in this part of San Francisco. I came here several times during my stay and I really enjoyed it. The wait wasnt too long either, even when they were busy.
I come to this place often and the food is excellent unfortunately the staff is very unfriendly. My oatmeal was luke warm and thought I was going to be shot for asking to have it heated more, unfortunately they put it in the microwave... π
Food was absolutely outstanding, fresh, great flavors and place.is low key. New favorite in SF for sure!
I visited this place coz of reviews, unfortunately the food was not as great as mentioned in the reviews. Eggs were overcooked, toast was ok, potatoes were the only good thing I had there.
Freindly service and good breakfast. I ate here several times and good prices. The food was fresh and the cashier was very accommodating.
A small hidden gem just off Union Square. Good food at reasonable prices. Try the Valencia scramble! Recommended.
Very average food and extremely overpriced. I payed $26 for an egg scramble with (not so great) orange juice and mashed potatoes on the side. Ridiculous.Also the place looks much nicer in pictures. It looks more like a rundown diner than a cute cafe. If you want a cute cafe, theres a nice looking place next door.
Amazing food for very reasonable price. Very tasty and so incredibly fast. Thank you!
Breakfast was tasty, ready quick, and a good price! Potatoes had a little kick to them, which I enjoyed.
Its a shame they close to early. Delicious food and great fresh coffee! Good wifi, its a decent place to study if you dont mind a little background noise!
Quaint cafe. Only Vegetarian opton is like sandwiches which was pretty good. Not exactly cheap for a sandwich but what do you expect for the middle of SF.
I ordered a grilled veggie burger. It was very filling and the portion was more than enough. The service was great and I loved the music playing.
Food was fine, good music. Mexican hot chocolate was awesome. Fair pricing. Would go again.
Here I got the best oatmeal breakfast that Ive had. Much better than I make at home. And low price.
Very nice spot to stop and get a quick coffee, bite to eat or just a snack. Met an old friend from the good old days on the Pacific Stock Exchange good to see you Todd
Nice, small place with good breakfast and coffee. Also serves booze if youre interested in that. Good meal, moderately priced.
Great coffee spot with Latin food, espresso drinks, wine and salsa music on the kitchen! Ive been coming for two years now everytime Im in town
If this place doesnt wake you up for breakfast, you may be dead. From the moment you walk in and are greeted by lively Latin music until the last bite of a chorizo sandwich, Cafe La Taza maintains its commitment to spicing up the first meal of the day. The sandwich bread is thickly sliced and the pastries are plentiful. The coffee might be the only place where Cafe could improve- the iced coffee is fine but seemed pedestrian when compared to the excitement of the food and atmosphere.
Came in for the first time and ordered a latte and the tomato soup. The soup and latte were delicious and served quickly. Biggest complaint is the serious lack of available electrical outlets.
Decent little cafe, the coffee is nothing to write home about but itll do the job. Prices are reasonable.
Great little place. Excellent coffee . My morning stop while staying in SF
Had the 2 2 2. The chorizo was great. Service was quick and friendly. The price was reasonable. Ill definitely be back!
Good lunch sandwiches. Customer service is hit or miss.
The food is really delicious. You can taste every single layer of your dish with a warm cup of coffee or tea, and just a simple drink of OJ.
The staff were very nice! The food was wonderful and I loved the upstairs seating.
Nice place, good coffee and pastries. Staff is friendly and the mood is light and bright. Very cozy
Best wrap Iβve ever had, quaint atmosphere in the middle of everything. Could use some power stations downstairs but did not detract.
Had a great breakfast for 4 days at this CafΓ©!
SO SO RUDE!! Disgusting service, the worst Iβve seen!! Itβs so busy yet people are lined up to be spoken to so rudely by the woman at the counter. Itβs like she hates every customer that walks in her door. Realise lady they are paying for you to put food on your table!! Itβs not hard to be nice
Great, clean and fast. The huevos rancheros and Valencia burrito were delicious!
Quaint space, food and coffee is great. The place gets smoky from the cooking so you dont want to sit to long as you smell lile food when you come out.
Been trying to find good coffee in the area. ordered a latte and it is worth it. about as good as it gets near union square. has a few tables. bilingual staff
Nice cozy spot with a wide variety of breakfast omelettes, bagels, salads, snacks and beverages, with quick turnaround for a fast pit-stop in the city
A little hole in the wall, but the food was really good, home style and the pastries were to die for!
Todays egg scramble on sourdough was fresh hot and good.
Such great food! Valencia Scramble is to die for. I love their pastries and they are always very friendly.
Ended up here as it was the only place with minimal line in the area around 10am on a Sunday. Dirty space, dishes smelled. Food quality less than average. Wouldnt suggest to anyone.
Salmon sandwich is quite tasty. Breakfast is average and pretty charred.
Tasty breakfasts at a reasonable price with a Mexican twist.
Delicious food in a cozy environment. Perfect for breakfast or brunch when staying in a hotel nearby.
The huevos rancheros was very nice
Excellent food, interesting place to people watch. We sat in the one table by the front window and it was very entertaining .
Nice place ! They built us special bagels a 4.00PM :) very tasty and friendly service.
Great hidden gem. Good coffee, pastries, and delicious breakfast burritos.
Found ourselves at this little cafe when we had only 30 mins for a quick bite on a Friday night prior to a show time of 8 PM at the Marines Memorial theater.Our order of chicken sandwich and coffee was served quickly and tasted great too.
Great sandwichs coffee and dessert. excellent customer service.
Hands down best coffee Union Square. Upstairs sitting area can get a little hot on warm days.
It was good a bit pricey for just eggs and potatoes
Such a cool place, very yummy and great service.
Amazing services and food. Love the coffee.
Standard breakfast spot with good portions for the price.
It is expensive, but considerIing the area... It was a little warm up at the balcony. There doesnt seem to be wifi. They are busy, but friendly. Sometimes people get turned off from the initial impression received from people different than they are. Sometimes people are more concerned with multitasking to serve orders well rather than cater to your feelings with that kind of brand of customer service. They close for a couple of hours at 3pm. Looked up and thought I was locked in! They came over and said, no problemo and let me out.
Very friendly, great food, fun atmosphere. The coffee is excellent and I highly recommend the Cubano.
Coffee was strong and flavorful. Golden gate scramble with fruit was delicious.
Pretty decent food - I had the chili verde scramble for breakfast. It was strange, but tasty. Really nothing special or amazing, but if I was in the area and hungry I would definetely eat here again, and happily.
Good service, good coffee, the food is meh and overpriced a little.
Great home in the wall cafe. The crossionwich was delish. Grab a spot in the front window; its weird but great for people watching.
Very good huevos rancheros, good spicey but not too much. Wife loved her Napa Scramble. Assortment of fresh baked goods (fantastic crumb cake) and good coffee.
This place was awesome. Went to visit SF got off the cable car at the end of the line and looked for breakfast restaurant on maps, this place showed as the best reviewed and cheapest. The chai tea was bomb, and I think the sandwich was called El cubano was awesome. We dont have places like this in the desert . Coachella valley. Now Im hungry.
Been going to this location for years and the staff and food are excellent!
Great Mexican coffee and fruit /granola plate!
