Wei TsangApril 1, 2012The corned beef is excellent. This place beats Katz's in nyc for user friendliness alone. yum.
The sourdough roll is very hard. You might to get a steak knife to slice it.
James TAugust 20, 2014Cafeteria-style meat and veg (although the latter is questionable). Cheap and tasty.
Amazing food for a good price and a fast line. U gotta love that.
MikeSeptember 8, 2011Great place for lunch. Food is great and prices are reasonable. I had the turkey platter, enjoyed it very much.
Mike NadelmanMarch 26, 2012Amazing my Chino friend never been here so my treat. He ordered Buffalo Stew and asked if it was from Golden Gate Park!!
Paul MaddisonJuly 4, 2012Awesome canteen style eating. Great beers, great chilli and great sandwiches.
Dawn EvansDecember 6, 2011Great grub, great prices, awesome service!! Not to mention a Metallica hot spot for fans.- Blake SamicApril 1, 2012Great home-style BBQ and beer selection - and pretty cheap. Try the brisket.
Jake SmithJuly 10, 2012Try SOMETHING. In this meat lover's paradise, everything tastes like perfection.
get the corned beef sandwich, grab some homemade pickles and order a PBR at the bar, now you are in San Francisco.
DJLYRiQMarch 4, 2012Friday menu is the best! Sit downstairs near the bar, upstairs is kind of cramp and sketch
Carlos MApril 30, 2012Chimay on tap. Bbq Briscuit is a must. Cole slaw is good, potatoe salad was a little bland
Christina GraceMarch 18, 2011This place really filled me up, really great food, great pricing, and taste wonderful. Wish we had a place like this back home.
Grace S.November 21, 2015BBQ beef is > turkey sloppy joe. Avoid the Sloppy joe if you don't like sugary meats.
Zac ChesterSeptember 23, 2012Get the table by the front window for some of the best people-watching in the city.
Miguel LiceaJuly 29, 2013Signage for the restrooms = confusing. And had I known where it was located I would of had my pepper spray ready in hand. Never will go to the restroom alone here again.
Three bean salad like mom... still makes. And don't forget to try the homemade pickles.
Steven EApril 1, 2012Damn this place got pricey...still good though - been coming here for 20 years +
Martin SextonJune 4, 2012Best pastrami ever. What an awesome old-timey vibe. A San Francisco institution.
Nicki LeeMay 5, 2016Argh cash only! Nothing like hungrily walking 20 min past 2 ATMs and then seeing their sign. They do have a machine, but I was not going to pay the fee to then spend mo money! Will go back for dinner
John MundyNovember 28, 2010Get the brisket or roast beef. Stay away from the meatball sandwich - 2 meatballs, sauce & bread. Decent pumpkin pie.
Been going here since 1992. Die hard fan for everything. Keep coming back.
