Bagdad Cafe 17 reviews (415) 621-4434 2295 Market St San Francisco, CA 94114 sanfrancisco.citysearch.com Write a Review Edit Business \| Upload Photo \| E-mail to Friend	Editorial Description by Citysearch In Short Down-home and fun, this popular cafe epitomizes the spirit of the Castro. The staff is friendly, the tables are spacious and the large windows along Market Street make for easy people-watching. Bagdad's most prized dish is its hamburger, a half-pound Black Angus worthy of compare to any burger in San Francisco. Triple-decker sandwiches are overstuffed and the "desert-spiced" fries come with a vat of ranch dressing for dipping.

Bagdad Cafe Brought some out of town friends there today, raving about this place. Unfortunately it's gone downhill from my last dining out there. Lots of dirty dishes left on tables and all the waitress wanted to tell us was that she was the only on there that day and she had a headache. Took 10 minutes until she took our order. When a guest wanted to sit at a particular table she moved the dished to another table and stated the same thing--only waitress, headache. Bathroom was disgusting with holes in the lower part of the wall and mice droppings all over the place. Certainly hope that things get better for them, otherwise there are lots of other CLEAN places in the area to eat.... Posted 06/30/08 \| Printable Version Was this review helpful to you?

I ordered the Greek burger, which came topped with avocado, tomatos and feta cheese and it was delicious. The meat was cooked perfectly. Some downsides is that the place is very small and crowded--my date and I sat at the table against the wall, and we were incredibly close to the next table--you couldn't move without bumping your neighbors. Also, the service was a bit slow. PROS: Excellent food, fun atmosphere CONS: Tiny and crowded, poor parking Posted 07/25/05 \| Printable Version Was this review helpful to you?

And I am sated. Shared half of a Buffalo Chicken salad tossed in hot sauce and then craved more of the crumbled blue cheese dressing. Definitely didn't leave feeling jipped. Have had the Belgian waffle with pecans while hungover and I was cool..... comfortable. Late night crew working were funky and one chick was 'inked'. Kinda hot.... ;D Pros: 24 hour, late-night Cons: Usually a line for the bathroom late night Posted 03/03/09 Bad food & health hazard By maxfact Pray you don't get sick when you eat here. Their most recent food inspection score is 64 / 100, which pretty much says it all right there. According to the inspection report (available at sf.cleanscores dot com) the violations include: no hand washing by employees, inadequate sinks, and food that is not hot or cold enough. They were also dinged for improper food storage, lack of food thermometers, and "unclean premises". My recent visits in January 2008 have all been disappointing: overcooked chicken tenders, badly seasoned food, rude/demoralized wait staff. I don't know whether they are coping with bad ingredients, bad recipes, or bad cooks, but the food coming out of their kitchen lately has been just awful. I live nearby and have given this place many chances but with this latest health inspection failure I'm not taking any more risks. Cons: Health hazard Posted 01/19/08 Best Breakfast By redwood73 This is the first review I have ever been compelled to write. I personally love a good chicken fried steak with eggs. and was totaly surprised by this dish at the Bagdad. It tasted hmemade from the patty to the gravy and to the delicious home fries which were perfectly seasoned and mixed with sweet red peppers.. It was all in all the best I have ever had. The coffee was even of a good quality similar to a coffee house. While the servers wiere quite average in their service it was not bad at all. I will definately return there soon and am hoping that their lunch and dinner was as great as their breakfast. Pros: Great food and room to move Coffee above average Cons: none so far Posted 05/10/07 Good Castro Place By tall1sobay This is a very ncie brunch place. The portions aer large and the prices not too bad. This can be very busy with a long wait. The wait staff, while generally friendly, are quite busy all the time and give great attentive service. Posted 11/02/06 Terrible Service, Terrible Food By pignatiello I have been to this joint several times and each time I ask why I chose it. I have never experienced a good server. In fact, I have never even had a server that was just mediocre. A terrible place that needs to get its act together! I MIGHT put up with all these bitchy servers if the food was decent but it isnt. Pros: 24 Hours, Castro Location, Decent Menu Variety Cons: Terrible Service, Rude Waitstaff, Bad Food Quality Posted 10/09/06
