Excellent, Healthy Food with Friendly Service
My experience at this restaurant was excellent. Situated next to an alley, it offers outdoor seating and a wide variety of food choices that are both excellent and healthy. The service was also a highlight, described as friendly and personable. I had no wait time for my meal.

Friendly Staff, Fresh Food, Great Value
My experience at this restaurant was overwhelmingly positive. I really love this spot because the staff is always soooo friendly and welcoming. The food is really fresh, and they have great breakfast sandwiches. I also enjoyed their solid London fog. The prices are super reasonable, especially for the amount of food you get.

Fantastic Food, Welcoming Atmosphere!
My experience at Local Roots by Opa Café was fantastic. We ordered the Turkey Club, Chicken Pesto Sandwich, Mediterranean Bowl, and California Curry Bowl. Every dish was fresh, flavorful, and super satisfying. The space looks great, the vibe is welcoming, and the staff is genuinely kind and attentive. It's an awesome spot for lunch—I highly recommend it!

Favorite Food Stop in San Francisco!
While visiting San Francisco from Oregon, we stopped by and it was our favorite food stop in the city! We ordered breakfast burritos, an iced latte, and a lemon bar, plus a fruit cup for our pug. Everyone was sooo nice, and the food was wonderful. It was the best lemon bar I’ve ever had!

Friendly Staff and Great Caesar Salad!
My experience at the restaurant was wonderful! The staff were incredibly friendly and polite. In particular, an Arab lady went above and beyond by offering us a complimentary Caesar salad to taste, even though we hadn't ordered it. This gesture made our visit special. The food was excellent, and the service was top-notch, contributing to a great atmosphere.

Best Healthy Lunch Spot Downtown!
If you work downtown and are looking for an actual healthy lunch spot, your prayers have been answered. LOCAL ROOTS IS THE BEST! They have incredibly fresh options for salads and sandwiches. They have rotisserie chicken going all day and cut it up right in front of you, it's so fresh and yummy! They also have the same for steak and salmon. I was really looking for a place where I could get some chicken and healthy sides and this is it! They also have a great selection of fresh made juices, oilipops / poppi drinks (literally every flavor), desserts, and chips! On top of it all, the staff is SO NICE and hardworking. You feel so good supporting this family business. I look forward to seeing them almost every day for lunch. My go-to is a cesar salad with chicken! You're welcome to advance ;)

Great Cafe with Early Hours
My experience at this cafe was fantastic! It’s a great little cafe run by great people. The early opening hours are a huge plus, especially for those traveling from the east coast. I particularly enjoyed their great smoothies and breakfast sandwiches.

Awesome Smoothie, Great Service!
My experience at Local Roots was awesome. The service was excellent, and although I only had a smoothie, it was so good that I returned for three consecutive days during my work trip. The food was fantastic, and the service was top-notch.

A Style Worth Figuring Out
After three visits and meals, I've figured out the restaurant's style. I enjoyed the locally rooted aspect, but it wasn't quite Mediterranean or superfood for me. The portion size is large, which I believe would benefit from more dressing. Overall, my experience was positive after understanding the culinary direction.
