Bernal Star

We had a party of 5 on an unusually warm (SF natives would say HOT) evening. Outside dining in what appears to have been the backyard of a house on Courtland Ave. We could tell it was a challenging night for the servers. Maybe the heat was to blame? Not sure. At one point we had to ask to check on our order and somehow the waiter hadn't entered it or sent it in to the kitchen for 20 minutes after taking our order on an night with every table in the house sat. It looked like he was going to melt down the poor guy left alone to wait way too many tables. Frazzled the staff rallied and got us our food and things settled down. My girlfriend had a chicken pot pie as big as her head. I made the unfortunate choice of fish tacos that, while not lacking flavor, were over priced. Nonetheless my friends all enjoyed their meals. I've been to this place a handful of times before and have had various dishes and experiences. Will for sure return.

The entrance is a small outdoor entrance that looks like a hallway into a private patio, but you’ll have arrived right where you need once you see the patio. Love the patio setting with the option to also sit indoors. Brunch is til 3pm. Best dish to order are the beignets with fresh fruit. Absolutely fantastic, and their house made jam is YUM! Eggs Benedict was good yet the side potatoes were dry. The chilaquiles had good sauce but were completely soaked in the sauce, making them soggy. A couple of vegetarian options available. Coffee, juices, and alcohol drink’s available. Accepts credit card and cash.
