Michelle L.June 3, 2013I love this place! You need to get through the interview to get in. There are very few tables and they only seat pairs, so they're selective. The food is amazing and the atmosphere so fun & friendly.
Hailey CrowelJuly 28, 2013If you get there early enough, the wait isn't bad. Definitely share with your companion and do the savory/sweet combo. The Havana and the French toast are both fab!
Nichanan KesonpatSeptember 6, 2016Pictured: "No one sucks it like a straight man from Texas". One of the best brunch experiences I ever had- not just the food but hospitality. Be cool and prepared for great stories, and penis decor
Brandon SiedlaczekDecember 9, 2015All of the entrees are unique. The atmosphere is amazing but definitely play by the rules or go somewhere else. 😜
- Grin GrinJuly 7, 2013The food embodies the place- colorful, queer and full of love- it makes you wanna put some steaming tacos in your face!
Charlie BaltimoreJune 21, 2013I LUV THIS PLACE I LUV THE FOOD I LUV THE RULES I LUV AD & I LUV DICK!!! A MUST IF U HAVE NEVER BEEN!!! *****5 Stars!!!
Maybs MSeptember 2, 2012You'll be judged from the moment you wait in line. You won't be allowed in if you: don't read the rules, carry an expensive purse, look like you're from the suburbs, don't look fun or hipster.
Glow BieOctober 28, 2013Get there early or be prepared to come back and try again or wait outside. Worth it imo! I got lucky my first time.
Dan GeigerDecember 12, 2012If you play along with Ahmed, you'll have an amazing time and equally amazing food. If you're uptight or easily offended, stay away or Ahmed will just ask you to leave anyway.
Jose CaballeroApril 13, 2013Sooo, if you DO get in, get the "Two Titties with Nipples". It's a large portion and spiced perfectly!
Brenda MarchettiSeptember 16, 2013An absolute SF experience (if you are not a closed minded fucktard). A.D. Is beautiful and amazing!
jonathan gettingerJune 17, 2012Though Red Door Cafe is small, it's sure not forgetful. It might, actually, be the perfect thing to wake you up before you've even caffeinated.
Eugene LeeSeptember 29, 2013Taste/health: omelette: 8/8.25 (goat cheese.. Yeah!), challah toast 9/6(cinnamon!) Bloody Mary & sake: 7.5/5
John Michael ChristovichJanuary 12, 2014Food was Fantastic. Make sure you have a smile on your face before you enter. It's important!
Seung-Jin HamJune 20, 2012my favorite sf brunch spot! go super early if you don't want to wait forever in line. i'd recommend the "roll my cuban."
Brian KenyonDecember 8, 2012Try the Amazing Flavors. Samon Perfect Sunny Side Eggs Toast Basil Mint Tomatoes
Philiam KennedyFebruary 23, 2013Get the Dump your Wife and Lick my Pink Snatch. I promise you will not be disappointed.
DeepikaJune 27, 2010All the French toast hype is true.. It's amazing!! And the waiter was so fun.. He busted out bhangra moves to punjabi music.
Leah AguinaldoJanuary 13, 2011Come early to avoid lines. This place is TINY so if you're willing to wait, the food and service are worth it.
David SequeiraMarch 20, 2010Bruschetta app is awesome. Cuban omlette was rolling. This place would be perfect if they could sell liquer for mimosas!
Aniela TaFebruary 4, 2010The French toast w bananas is amazing. Also the best 'BLT' (bacon spinach tomato panini) I think I've ever had.
Alex ChengOctober 21, 2012These are the rules of the Red Door Cafe... Don't break them or you won't get in!
Meghana DharJanuary 27, 2013Seriously do not break the rules. No sunglasses, no outside coffees, and no 'tude. And remember to nurse the sex dolls you are given. It'll all be worth it after you're seated.
Laramar SF Urban ApartmentsOctober 1, 2010The coffee mug is giant, like the size of a soup bowl - Love it!
- Eugene LeeSeptember 29, 2013No parties greater than two?? At least they are courteous about turning you away. Cute shop though
Rebecca MorehiserMarch 17, 2010This place is only open from breakfast through lunch. I pass it regularly on my walk back from work, and it's always too late. I am determined to make it for a weekend brunch.
Zahid ZamanOctober 7, 2012Avoid like the plague. The service is rude and thinks they are doing you a favor by allowing you to eat at this establishment. The food is mediocre at best.
