Universal Cafe

San Francisco Recommendation

univcafe.jpg (12205 bytes)


 

The Universal Cafe is an awesome restaurant in the rapidly gentrifying Potrero Hill new media gulch.  Expect excellent food at very reasonable prices.   Tucked away on a formerly industrial street, the Universal Cafe turns out incredible food.  Featured lunch menu items recently were:

  • Grilled chicken sandwich on focaccia with balsimic onions, roasted tomatoes, and aioli  $8.50
  • Grilled salmon sandwich with roasted tomatoes, savoy cabbage slaw and caper aioli $9.25
  • Carmelized onion pizza with proscuitto, fontina, and ricotta $9.50
  • Chilli verde with braised pork, tomatillo9s, poblano chillis and rice served with handmade tortillas  $11.50
  • Grilled asparagus with baby beets, tapenade croutons and citrus vinaigrette $8.00

If you love fresh, delicious, thoughtfully prepared California food you will die for the Universal Cafe.  One downside is that parking in this neighborhood is bad (but average for SF).  The Universal Cafe's management will also be running a new upscale dinner restaurant "XYZ" at the very highly recommended SOMA Hotel W - San Francisco (get it!).  Very High Recommended- WINTER 2008
