It's super clean and bright in here and the baristas are amazing. The window seats are great for people-watching. They also carry Worthy Granola! That seals the deal.
Crispy eggplant curry is a standout. All dishes are bright, pungent, exciting—I loved it. If you're not adventurous and open to new experiences, I'd go elsewhere.
Love love love the new TJs! It has wider aisles than my neighborhood Trader Joe's on California St. It's bright and new and has everything I want/ So convenient from BART too.

Great coffee, baked goods, sandwiches and salads in a bright and trendy setting. Stark contrast from the druggies, dealers and hoe's just outside. All of which makes this a very hip spot.
Atmospheric Izakaya with bright salads, great yakitori and perfectly chewy udon. Nicely curated sake list.
