Fast Food, Great Taste!
My experience at the restaurant was surprisingly FAST! Perhaps a bit too fast, as my appetizer arrived with my hot meal in just 6 minutes. I wasn't quite prepared for the speed or the generous amount of food. 😅 Everything was very good. I enjoyed the wings with fries and the noodles with beef.

Mr. East is a Feast!
Mr. East is like a Mr. Feast! My experience was fantastic. The food was delicious and the service was excellent and fast paced. For those attending conferences at Moscone, this is 100% worth a stop for lunch.

Delicious Thai-Vietnamese Fusion Brunch!
My experience at Mr. East Kitchen was truly amazing! We had a lovely brunch and were impressed by the well-seasoned and beautiful dishes, which were meticulously crafted with authentic Thai and Vietnamese influences. Every dish was equally comforting and refreshing. We particularly enjoyed the flavorful Tom Yum omelet, as the strong spices of the Tom Yum paired nicely with the delicate omelette and crisp savory potatoes. The drinks, like the Strawberry Fizz and Butterfly Lychee Fizz, offered a refreshing fruity complement to the savory meals. The sauces, such as the rich but delectable apple mustard and Thai Tea sauce, melded beautifully with the offerings, from the delicately sweet pandan waffle to the French toast. The restaurant beautifully blends American influence with diverse Asian flavors, all in a cozy, welcoming environment. The friendly, warm service truly added a wonderful touch to our experience. I would definitely try again!

Delicious Brunch and Eager for Dinner!
My experience at this restaurant was absolutely delightful, starting with their Thai tea french toast, chicken and pandan waffle, and refreshing drinks like the iced butterfly lychee fizz, strawberry matcha, and lychee jasmine tea. The food was so good that I'm already planning to return for dinner. The atmosphere and service were also top-notch, contributing to a fantastic brunch experience.

Mr. East Kitchen: Flavorful Food, Fast Service
During a recent trip to San Francisco for Dreamforce, I needed a satisfying meal after a long day of sessions. I found Mr. East Kitchen on Yelp, drawn by its great reviews, and I'm so glad I did. They truly delivered! My colleague enjoyed the Banh Mi sandwich, while I opted for the Angus steak dish. He paired his with a bold Vietnamese coffee, and I chose the lychee fizzy drink, which was light, refreshing, and a perfect counterpoint to the rich steak. The food arrived impressively fast, allowing us to get straight to enjoying it. Every bite was flavorful, balanced, and made with care. The service was friendly and attentive without being intrusive, making the overall experience feel effortlessly enjoyable. I'd give this place a 15 out of 10 if I could. Excellent food, great service, and quick turnaround – exactly what you want whether you're in town for a conference or just craving a quality meal. I highly recommend Mr. East Kitchen; it's the kind of place that pleasantly surprises you and makes you want to return.

Amazing Brunch Experience at Mr. East!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ My experience at Mr. East for brunch was absolutely blown away! Amy welcomed us with such warmth and energy, truly setting the tone for a great experience. The food was fantastic. The Eggs Benedict were flavorful and filling, and the scrambled eggs were cooked perfectly. For dessert, we finished with the mango sticky rice, which was amazing – the mango was perfectly ripe and the rice cooked to perfection. I highly recommend Mr. East for anyone looking for a delicious and memorable brunch!

Delicious Drunken Pad Thai and Fire Chicken Pho!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! I tried the drunken pad tai and it was totally delicious. The chicken pho was also fire! The food received a perfect score of 5, and the service and atmosphere were equally impressive with scores of 5. The noise level was quiet, making it easy to talk. Overall, a great dining experience.

Excellent Food & Service, Minor Location Issue
Mr. East is a go-to for me. I experienced wonderful service and incredible food. They offer great options for vegetarians and vegans, and I bring everyone that visits me here. I highly recommend it. Over time, I've tried many things on their menu; the pandan waffle and noodle dishes are amazing. The portion sizes are large. I hope you have a good time. The only downside is a city problem, not a restaurant problem: it's next to a bus stop that's a common spot for homeless folks on drugs. This can impact your dine-in experience, so it's best to avoid the tables near the bus stop.

Cozy Spot with Delicious Food & Great Service
My experience at this restaurant was wonderful! It's a cozy place with delicious and beautifully presented food. The atmosphere is calm, and the staff is super friendly. Although they accidentally brought chicken curry instead of tofu, they fixed it right away, within two minutes. Our Thai waiter was so polite and kind, which only enhanced the experience. Thank you for such a lovely branch! 💛
