Best Burger 5 Star Rating - World class

Hands down the best burger in San Francisco...tried the turkey sandwich, but just go for the burger, period. You won't be disappointed.

Pros: Street parking available, bus service nearby, casual dining, best burger in San Francisco
Cons: No reservation policy

Good Food but Poor Service 3 Star Rating - Satisfactory

Yes, Slow Club has good comfort food - turkey sausage hash for breakfast and hamburger for lunch. However, be prepared to tolerate poor service from the host and waitstaff.

Case in point: The host will take your name but only call it once inside the restaurant before moving on to the next party. I had advised her that we were waiting outside as the waitlist crowd had spilled from inside to the sidewalk outside. Therefore, several parties, who chose to wait inside, jumped the queue ahead of those waiting outside. When this issue was raised, the host was dismissive. Upon being seated, be prepared for slow service. The waitstaff is stretched thin so they don't come by as often to refill drinks, etc.

Go for the food, not the service.

Pros: Parking, Prices
Cons: Service

Breakfast just off the beaten path 5 Star Rating - World class

I recommend the turkey sausage hash, but everything on the menu is familiar and tasty. Moderately priced, always a place to park, and almost never a line. How many other breakfast spots in SF can you say that about?

Brunch was ok, not as expected 4 Star Rating - Very good

I was there for brunch one day. The salad was excellent, loved it. Other than that, food overall was ok. Did not impress me much.

Pros: Service
Cons: Parking, neighborhood

Good spot for brunch 5 Star Rating - World class

I've been to that place 3 times, each time for brunch. I like the decor, the ambience, the food. I've tried many things with friends, all tasty; but my favorite is the hamburger. I crave for hamburger on week-ends and that one is good, fries are crunchy. Ceasar salad is recommended too, i always asked for the sauce on the side because they put a lot of sauce.

Pros: Good food, nice ambience, pretty decor
Cons: Noisy when crowded
