San Francisco is in California, on the West Coast, where the climate ranges from foggy coast to hot inland valleys, wildfire season can affect air quality in late summer, and traffic is the main thing to plan around. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and San Francisco follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

This is a wonderful cafe. The staff are friendly with a mix of Russian and English speakers. The food is simple but good with a sense of real authenticity that is not just for show - the potato and mushroom piroshki (which they warmed for us) felt nearly identical to the ones I am used to finding at Russian churches and monasteries. They have a wide selection of black, green, oolong and decaffeinated teas and my friends enjoyed the kvas. All of the seating is outdoors and at peak times all of the tables are occupied, but the turnover is quick, so just give it a few minutes for a table to become available, or order for take-away. There is also a whole display of sweets and cakes, so I look forward to coming back to try those.

Very nice bakery. Not having the most fancy look with outdoor seating. Borsch was very good, in a relatively large bowl, with two slices of bread. Could be enough for breakfast by themselves. Poppy seed roll was sweet. One of us felt something different after and the other did not.

Cinderella bakery is a magical place. It’s small and cozy. The outside seating is comfy and spacious. Their food selection is unparalleled… I always love spending an afternoon at Cinderella. And I often meet some of the most amazing ppl from the neighborhood. It’s def a great spot to network and enjoy delish breakfast or lunch.

This is a cute little bakery with Russian fare. Ordered the Piroshkis - cabbage eggs and green onion eggs. The bread was cloud like and extremely nice. Also got the mushroom blinkchiki which was warm, and comforting stuffing. The stuffing tasted good despite not much spices, however their portion size was small for that price. To satiate the sweet tooth, ordered the almond coffee cake , which looked really nice and tasted ok. Highly recommend getting a spot as they have limited seating

Chicken Pelmeni (4/5): large portion, 20 dumplings, with optional broth add on. Easily shared among two or more people. Good flavor, would be nice if the stuffing had something in addition to chicken. They have another meat Pelmeni (pork and beef) combo and two vareniki options - potato and cherry. It would be nice if you could get a half serving and try more than one type. Blinchiki (5/5): nice soft crepes with mushroom and potato filling wrapped up into rolls with a sour cream dip
