What People Are Saying About Just for You Cafe
The Owner
Just for You Cafe
Owner
We?re located in San Francisco?s Dogpatch (east of Potrero Hill), just a few minutes down 3rd Street from the ballpark. We?ve got lots of good things to eat: eggs, pancakes and french toast, New Orleans and Mexican specialties, fish specials, sandwiches, salads, fresh made sausages, home-made breads, hot plates, yummy desserts and always some daily specials. Now don?tcha just want to eat here? Our white, wheat and cinnamon-raisin bread is baked right here, with no additives or preservatives. And our rye bread is from the fine folks at Acme. If you like, take a fresh loaf home with you.

In Short
Decorated with neon rock-and-roll posters, this funky cafe attracts a local Dogpatch crowd of artists and young professionals, who often fill the eight tables and long counter. Breakfast is an especially popular meal, featuring grits or crab cakes with eggs, fat breakfast burritos, crunchy cornmeal pancakes and thick slices of homemade toast. The lunch menu includes Reubens, fresh fish of the day, pasta of the day, hamburgers and fresh-cut french fries.

Beignets are the best reason to have breakfast at Just for you. Do not expect a fancy brunch, but if you are willing to wait a little for a table on the weekend and love a hot beignet, this is the place for you. The prices are reasonable, if not cheap, compared to most of SF.

My fiance and I love Just For You for breakfast/brunch. The owner's native Louisiana roots are what brought us there to begin with, as we are recent transplants here from New Orleans - the food has always been spectacular! When we found out that the weekday menu also had Po-Boys, we decided to try lunch there as well. Shame on them for calling this a Po-Boy. You may be able to fool Californians, but after 28 years in New Orleans, I know that shrimp po-boys should have more than 4 shrimp (for $9.95)!!! They did taste great, at least the bites that had more than just lettuce and french bread, but come on...We were very dissapointed in this "tease" of a real seafood Po-Boy. We'll stick to breakfast here!

I used to love this place, and some of the things on the menu were GREAT (cornmeal pancakes, for instance). When they first changed to their new local, the prices were still low and the food good. Oh, how things change. They should call the restaurant "Not For You Anymore". OK, the beignets are pretty great. But the last two times I've gone, the service has been surly and rushed, the food's been mediocre at best, and the prices are now as high as any other breakfast joint. It's just not worth it. Grits are runny, eggs over-easy are raw, pancakes thick, rubbery, tasteless. Wait staff too busy to take your order but then falling all over themselves to get you out to make room for more. Friends I took there wondered why I raved about it. Sadly, it's the end of an era.
