    Food was great but lots of hidden fees in the menu. For example an extra skewer is $7 for only 1 piece

    café tiramisu is like a hidden gem in San Francisco, not only is the service amazing, the ambience is beautiful with amazing food to top it all off. I cannot state enough how happy I was with my meal, highly recommend the lobster appetizer, the flavors were absolutely incredible, and for such high value it’s very reasonably priced. if you’re in San Francisco, I would not miss Café tiramisu. Thank you Giuseppe for your hospitality and amazing cuisine!

    All of our servers were polite and efficient, refilling our water a couple of times, which was nice since the carafe was on our table for self service. The lunch portions were hearty and very tasty. The colorful decor was pleasing with my only critique being that they crammed everybody in on one side of the restaurant with no table gaps. I understand server efficiency, but I think it made the room louder than it needed to be. The ladies next to us scooted closer together instead of sitting on opposite sides of the small, round table so that they could hear each other. The other half of the restaurant was completely empty so it would have been nice to space us out, particularly the larger groups. All in all an enjoyable meal, though.

    Sweet little spot with a creative menu. The plates are visually striking. The stuffed dates! The crab cake! The beef tartare! Having half bottles on the list is not often seen, but it’s a great way to try a few different bottles for date night! Daniel did a great job and was very informative. The ambiance of this place will bring me back again!
