- Amanda MejiaMarch 24, 2013My favorite brunch place in the city. We've brought every friend we could here, and I highly suggest a brunch with the mashed potatoes and a carafe of mimosas. I wish I could make then that good.
- Harriet RuffNovember 13, 2015Amazing #brunch. I had the #vegetarian hash - such good spicy sauce!! Don't leave here without trying the devilled eggs and the biscuits and strawberry butter. One of the few places you can book in SF
- Redeye ChicagoJuly 20, 2015With the cocktails, live music on many nights and the Deco-inspired interior with a row of mahogany booths along one wall, I can see why the Elite remains popular. Read more
- AFAR MediaAugust 12, 2014I had the Alabama Scramble: Scrambled Eggs & Minced Bacon with Baked Mashed Potatoes, Biscuits & Gravy and a bowl of Grits. It was heaven and I highly recommend! Read more
- Ashley MowreyJuly 16, 2015Those gluten free pancakes and creole fries though. I always overlooked this place and now hate myself that I never stepped in here before. Really attentive, friendly staff, and good prices
- Beerblondie Victoria OlsonMarch 5, 2014Best southern food outside of New Orleans! You must get the seafood gumbo, Cajun shrimp & crawfish étouffée with white rice and fried okra and the Untraditional New Orleans Style BBQ shrimp!

- As of Aug 2015, they have a whole new menu. All of the good stuff (jambalaya, Mac and cheese, gumbo etc) are gone. Biscuits remain available.
- Laura Della GuardiaJune 27, 2013Classy, good for business but also a 'girls night out'. Oysters and seafood, although I would recommend just having a drink and a appetizer here, and heading elsewhere for proper food.
- Check out the Ramos gin fizz. Full of meringuey goodness on top, it's like a boozy milkshake!
- Meeting house biscuits, Deviled eggs, Martinis are all what everyone talks about. They are right, plus some aged California wines! Love them.
- Beerblondie Victoria OlsonMay 11, 2014Get the homemade ginger ale! Amazing! Also, can't go wrong with the devices eggs, seafood Benedict and seafood gumbo.
- Anton ShusterJune 21, 2014Try the shrimp and grits, heirloom root salad with smoky Benton’s ham, classic deviled eggs, andlardo cornbread.
- Yuri KyeDecember 3, 2010Mini donut holes are so cute. Bloody mary is one of the best. Cocktails are tasty and boozy and big. Alabama scramble and the cajun beef hash are off the chain. Great biscuits!
- 7x7 MagazineNovember 30, 2012Order the New Orleans-Style BBQ Shrimp and Cheese grits. Both creamy and cheesy, these grits will leave you satisfied all day! Read more
- They sell the their biscuit batter in tubs for a reason – these babies are addicting. The whipped strawberry butter that accompanies them is indescribable!
- Andrew RogoffApril 29, 2018Try the Impossible Burger - it's vegetarian but you really can't tell it's not meat. Delicious!
- Amy JuangJuly 14, 2013Lettuce with peaches were amazing. Underwhelmed with deviled eggs, fried okra, calamari & sweet potato fries. Cute booths.
- ashley tevatiaOctober 8, 2012Amazing New Orleans style food. Get the beignets to start. Seafood Benedict is a fab dish for brunch.
- Marissa CoughlinFebruary 7, 2012Very rich brunch. Mashed potatoes come with almost every brunch item! I like the huevos rancheros, biscuits, and deviled eggs.
- Negi A.December 16, 2012Fantastic fries, less delicious on the cappuccino side. I guess they use regular coffee instead of espresso.
- JayeetaOctober 17, 2013Great place for brunch. Their devilled eggs are to die for!! Try the mimosas.
- Jonathan YankovichJuly 1, 2012The best brunch entree i've had in San Francisco is the Seafood Benedict at Elite Cafe.
- Amy BNovember 17, 2015Southern bent. Who'd have guessed?! Monday night music & fried chicken not to be missed.
- diana chowDecember 5, 2011The New Orleans shrimp and cheese grits are so amazing. Also, the passion fruit mimosa.
- Courtney DuvendackDecember 21, 2012Manager was ver attentive and because we had to wait a bit for our table they gave us complimentary dessert!

- Marc Jacobs IntlApril 20, 2011Try Elite Cafe for a decadent Southern style brunch. We love the Elite Cajun Style Braised Beef Hash!
- Julia ChuSeptember 22, 2013Food is decent but service is absolutely terrible. Hostess is incompetent and we got a waiter that is about as rude as it gets. At one point he poked my friend to re-confirm the order.
- Chris CatapanoOctober 17, 2010They need one or two more servers (or two fewer managers who seem to do a lot of standing). Food was actually pretty good. Several tables were complaining. Desserts not delivered, drinks MIA....
- Krista ThomasFebruary 2, 2012Oyster Shooter is the best, according to @arthurbrodeur I personally like the Romaine Salad.
- Nalin MittalFebruary 7, 2010Wow. Possibly the best buttermilk pancakes I've ever tried. BBQ shrimp and cheese grits were excellent too.
- Andrew SalzmanMarch 20, 2011Order the chicken raw. It was delicious and free. Hope I don't get salmonella in next 3 hours.
- Hank LeMieuxMay 31, 2010Abita Amber on tap. ZD on the wine list Great gumbo. Heart-stopping biscuits (literally).
- EladFebruary 9, 2014Don't pay with cash. Waitress came back with the check saying $20 bill was missing although I'm 100% sure we had the full amount.
- Sahil DesaiDecember 6, 2015Beignets were delicious but everything else was quite meh. Coffee was awful, burnt, and their espresso machine is broken.
