Overview

An air of French Bohemia circa 1890, pervades this cozy cafe in the heart of the Mission arts district. Artists, art students, and art aficionados flock here for a quick and tasty panini sandwich and house-made soup, or to linger over huge plates of delicious Pasta or Grilled Fish ordered from the seasonal menu. The walls are full or artwork done by locals, brightly illuminated with the light that the Edwardian storefront's huge windows lets in. The mood is unhurried for the most part, though it can get a bit hectic at peak meal hours. The wait staff is personable and efficient.
