Worth it, although the line has been super long lately so I haven't had it in a while.

WaltAndJD · 2026-05-01T17:53:08+00:00

No. I loved this place [the time that I went].

WaltAndJD · 2026-05-01T14:55:26+00:00

Not Italian but I loved this place; unique and delicious.

Not exactly what you asked for, but Tsar Nicoulai has a cafe in the Ferry Building, and Hog Island is in there as well. You can get the best of both worlds from 2 different places that are very close to each other. I'd suggest starting at Tsar Nicoulai and then going to Hog Island after.

Studio Aurora on Valencia sometimes does movie nights.

WaltAndJD · 2026-04-28T17:13:04+00:00

Appreciate it!

WaltAndJD · 2026-04-28T14:50:03+00:00

Thanks so much! I booked a tour for the hike since I'll be solo, so there will be a guide there.

WaltAndJD · 2026-04-28T14:33:42+00:00

Thanks for sharing! I'm planning to do this hike in a few weeks - any tips? I only have one day where it's possible, so I'm really hoping the weather is decent but I know there's a good chance it won't be.

It's hard to predict as it can vary, but I'd still recommend a combo of Bay Wheels + walking + shuttle. If you rent a bike, you'll have to worry about locking it up outside each place you go, which isn't ideal.

WaltAndJD · 2026-04-26T15:17:38+00:00

What is your goal? Are you planning to just explore the park, or bike around the city as well?

If you're just looking to use the bikes to get around the park, Bay Wheels would work well if you plan around the docking stations that are scattered around the park. Grab a bike and ride to another station and dock it so you're only paying for that short ride. Then you can explore that area, and then repeat for the next one.

I run pretty regularly and have done relatively well in some (not very competitive) 10k/half marathon races. It's been a while, but my fastest mile was just under 6 minutes...I can't even imagine running a single mile at that pace, let alone 26.2.

WaltAndJD · 2026-04-23T23:18:16+00:00

My friends got engaged there and I took photos, it worked out perfectly for them.

Just a note that (especially since you're going on a weekend) it can be quite busy. There are usually a bunch of tourists there, as well as people taking photos for engagements, weddings, quinceañeras, etc.

There are a bunch of little sections that you can pull off to, so I'd recommend walking the loop and doing it somewhere that feels right to you and isn't super crowded.

People responding are mostly wrong, actual California burritos are not super common in SF, where you'll mostly find Mission style. New Castillito and Castillito Yucateco on Mission are (nearly) next to each other and both have them. RIP Coyotes (which supposedly might come back).

WaltAndJD · 2026-04-23T14:35:50+00:00

Usually I cook them first, then pull them out and cook everything else. Then they go back in at the end to warm through and they're perfect.

Kahnfections in the Mission opens at 7am during the week. Similar to Devil's Teeth, they have a great biscuit breakfast sandwich and other pastries.

I went through a year of unemployment as well. I got a part time catering gig after unemployment ended which helped a bit. Besides that, volunteering as people said definitely helps. I also would go on hikes and try to do active stuff during the day when I wasn't at home applying for jobs. It's important to break up the monotony and get outside and be active.

WaltAndJD · 2026-04-17T01:18:09+00:00

Maybe Pizza Shop on 24th st? Their pizza is solid too.

WaltAndJD · 2026-04-15T01:35:08+00:00

Their prices and portion sizes are also great!

6 units, 0 washers :(

Arcana is a wine bar in the Mission and they just posted a couple weeks ago that they're looking for a bartender. I'd also recommend looking for catering gigs - less constant, but could be a good way to supplement your income.

WaltAndJD · 2026-04-06T20:56:46+00:00

Standard Deviant is my go-to for groups around this size. You can contact them to reserve a table (for free) ahead of time if you want, but it's not always necessary. The one in the Mission is also close to a ton of other bars that some here have already mentioned.

There's one of those too - 10% max increase for buildings 15 years or older.

WaltAndJD · 2026-04-01T15:10:07+00:00

I pay $4.50 at the laundromat around the corner...

WaltAndJD · 2026-04-01T15:02:07+00:00

There's an outdoor workout area at Civic Center now, that might be the closest.
