Lapisara Eatery

I'll go ahead and give it five stars, with a caveat.

The day after labor day was not crowded. I was seated (solo) immediately, and there were plenty of open tables and about three lovely ladies working the floor. The latte comes in an adorable bear, undoubtedly making the gram with every guest that comes through. Their OJ was one of the best I've had in SF... fresh, but not overly pulpy. And yes, the latte was 'light' but very tasty.

The Crab Benedict is a pricy endeavor, but when in SF, you must get crab at least once. The plate is HUGE with a lot of salad (the vinaigrette on it was amazing), potatoes mixed with other root veg (delicious), and the eggs poached perfectly and the special hollandaise was amazing (I asked for an additional side of sauce, as they sauce the eggs rather lightly).

Everything was delicious and was almost too *much* food. It gave me fuel for the entire day. However, you will pay a hefty price for the meal. Worth it if you are visiting from out of town, and if you're local it might be the occasional special treat. Or maybe you have some of that sweet Silicon Valley money. Lucky you. Spend away!

Very aesthetic and cutesy interior!
It wasn't busy during lunch time :), food came pretty fast!
The ube latte was alright, I think the ube flavor could be stronger it's very faint. Just paying for the cute little ice bear.
I ordered the avocado toast, the avocado/guacamole was too salty.
Not sure if I'd come back in the future.

I visited San Francisco just over a month ago (early July '24) with a friend and this place stood out as we were walking through the city. The service was quick. It was moderately busy but not overcrowded.

I'm a big fan of Eggs Benedict, so when I saw Fried Chicken Benedict on the menu, I had to try it. A nice twist on a classic! The battered chicken was cooked to a perfect crisp and went well with the egg and English muffin. I also loved the variety of sweet potatoes and simple salad greens as sides to counteract the richness of the chicken. It was a good balance.

Everything on the menu looked great so I will have to try something new next time I visit SF!

My friends and I used to go to Lapisara for brunch all the time, but after moving out of the area, we hadn't visited as often. Despite it being a few years since my last visit, I've always craved their Fried Chicken Sandwich. Last Saturday, we finally went back, and I'm so glad we did.

Surprisingly, there wasn't a long line, and we waited only about 5-10 minutes. We all opted for the bottomless mimosas, which were excellent. Our food arrived in a timely manner, and that first bite of the Fried Chicken Sandwich was just as amazing as I remembered.

The only downside was that I wished there was more slaw and sauce, as some of the bun was a bit dry. Nevertheless, it's still the meal I'll choose when we visit again. Overall, the service was great too.

Came here for lunch last weekend. I don't really go to that area in SF but I feel like it's not the safest part of SF. Service was fast, food - both my friend and I ordered chicken n waffle, for the price, it's not all that. Drink - I had "It was a good day", too sweet and I honestly didn't taste the alcohol. Presentation of food and drinks was cutesy. Servers were friendly and fast. Parking - street parking or garage (preferred IMO for safety). It was good to try it since it's all over IG, but I don't think I'll come back or something I would recommend.

Got here around 9:30 am on a Sunday and had about a 15 min wait (FYI they will not seat you unless your whole party is there)
Shared 2 dishes with 4 people and this was the perfect amount of food.

-Ube Latte - fire, the hot one is served in the cutest little cup. Loved the little honey/gold crunchies on top

-chicken waffle - so good I was impressed, the chicken was perfectly crunchy and great flavor and the waffle was also spot on, great dish perfectly balanced sweet/salty

-holy basil omelette - this place was complete with potatoes (love that it was a mix of different potatoes including sweet potatoes), salad and toast. Good flavor in the omelette.

At first I was very skeptical, this looks like an instagram trap. But the drinks look soo cute that I have to give it a try. Honestly, I was very very very pleasantly surprised.


We came on the weekend around 11 am and we probably only waited for 5 minute. Not only that, they also have a Yelp waitlist if you dont want to stand there too long! Parking was also pretty easy around the area. The only thing that may give ppl a pause is just that its a bit close to the sketchy part of the city, but the street it's on and the immediate streets next to it don't seem too bad.

For one, the drinks were very good. I had to get the Ube bear, and it was very good, not super sweet. and the iced bear was flavored. At the end, the ube flavor bear melted and it got a bit too sweet. But otherwise, it was perfect.


Not only the drink, the brunch items were very good! I got the fried chicken benedicts. The fried chicken was very good. The eggs and the sauce were good. However, I dont think fried chicken is the best for an egg benedict. From the texture perspective, its like hard/ crispy chicken on hard-ish toast. I think a pork belly or salmon would be better. Nonetheless, separately both were very delicious!


I have a lot of menu items I wanted to come back and try. I would recommend and I would say that its not an instagram trap haha.

Such a cute spot for Thai inspired brunch. Tons of fun options on the menu, both sweet and savory, so there's something for everyone. They go all out for birthdays so would definitely recommend coming here for a birthday :)) They give free dessert and also a small gift. So sweet!

Got the tom yum burrito which came with a massive serving of chips (yum) and tom yum salsa I think (it was very good w the chips). The burrito itself was okay -- it was very filling and flavorful, but nothing super special. Their omelettes looked really good. The portions here are huge.

Fantastic service (everyone was super sweet and kind!) and food comes out very quick! Come at 10:30 to avoid a line.

Originally, we are going to go next-door before we found this place and next-door seem to be extremely busy. It must've been fate for us to have walked next-door to this place because it was such a gem.

Upon entering, there wasn't any line before, but I

We were seated and waited maybe about 10 minutes to be seated while they made a table and accommodated us with our large stroller that we had for our baby. When we were waiting outside, the lady was so on top of getting ready to see everybody with large groups, including us with a group of two in a baby and they just seem to be very organized and it was awesome.

We ordered the espresso macchiato and that was delicious. We also ordered my husband ordered the chicken Benedict because he thought on a plate coming out and he was like I'm definitely gonna get that and it was so delicious for him.

For myself, I was tired because there was so many options on the menu. I asked our server and he recommended the smoked salmon and toast and oh my goodness it was absolutely out of this world so delicious if you like a bagel this it taste just like it put on a piece of toast with plenty of salmon and plenty of avocado, salsa, and a salad that was actually really delicious with the light vinaigrette dressing that they had on it.

It was so happy that we did this place. It was absolutely delicious. I can't wait to try and come back to San Francisco one day. This place was so amazing. I think you'd really enjoy it if you're coming to visit.

My first visit to this eatery for dinner and I'm happy to say it was well worth the trip. Upon entering, the staff were friendly and welcoming and I noticed the interior vibe provides a casual & trendy, yet intimate atmosphere, suitable for breakfast, brunch, or dinner with outdoor seating available. The menu offers a mix of Thai and American breakfast dishes, popular for brunch, so arriving early can help avoid long wait times, especially on weekends.

My chicken & waffle was delightful, with an excellent balance between the sweetness of fluffy waffle nestled underneath the savory, crispy fried chicken. This was an easy choice for my first dish to try here.

The Pad Thai was vibrant & flavorful along with the portion being generous enough to share with the table.

Fish & chips were decent, but not remarkable or memorable in any particular way.

FYI: vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options, they cater to various dietary needs​

Their other popular dishes including the Fried Chicken Benedict, Tom Yum Burrito, and Massaman Curry gives me plenty of reasons to come back to try more. ​
