A family owned restaurant that is small but still worth to check out! Their French toast with caramelized bananas were amazing and left, feeling good and full! Always checking on you, refilling your water and/or coffee, and definitely would love to eat there again!

Travelled from Chicago and found this amazing breakfast place near our hotel. Wife had the sugar waffle. I hade the Russian hill frittata. Mine was amazing and before I could try my wife’s it was gone. Good sized portions and flavor was amazing. We will be back this trip for sure! Highly recommend this place.

I went to eight am in a party of 6 and they easily accommodated our party. The wait staff was very nice and the food came out quickly- and it was REALLY good. Everyone in my party LOVED what they got and there were absolutely no complaints. As someone from CA, I can tell you that eight am is authentic and really good! Would highly recommend!

Be prepared to wait especially on the weekend, 500 ft away from fisherman’s wharf, you can catch the trolleys 700 ft away also. The locAtion is small but the food I is amazing and worth the wait, there’s seating outside but on a cold day i would recommend sitting outside. The avocado toast three ways is fulfilling and sharable, French toast with blueberries are amazing, you get fruit with each of your plates. Hazelnut latte is amazing. Worth coming to for breakfast or brunch

Was an awesome place for breakfast. We stayed in SF 3 days and ate breakfast here twice. The French toast and sugar waffles were the best. Fresh fruit was so good. Hubby had the chicken sausage fritatta both times. Will definately be coming back

Food comes to your table hot, hot, and hot. It is not sitting under neath heat lamps/ warmers until someone notices food. Once the bell sounds, someone picks up food and takes it to the table. None of this " It's not my order" mentality.

My best friend and I stopped by Eight AM for brunch on our last day in SF and Eight AM was a perfect choice. We sat outside which was very comfortable and they have quite a bit of shade so the sun wasn’t in our eyes. We shared the Avocado Toast 3 ways and got an extra bowl of fruit, this was the perfect amount of food for us both, if you come with a big appetite this would be great for 1 as well. My favorite of the three is the one with bacon, because who doesn’t love bacon! What I love about this dish, is you would probably assume they use the same type of bread for all 3, but all 3 versions use a different type of bread. Their fruit was very fresh and sweet! I also ordered the matcha latte, not in the photo but also highly recommend. It was a bit pricy for what it was between the extra bowl of fruit and our two lattes, we still ended up spending about $40 which seemed a bit high for a course that we shared but ultimately we loved it and would definitely go again.

eight am is an amazing brunch spot on Joseph Conrad square. Their avocado toasts and crepes are some of the best I've ever eaten. The staff are also extremely friendly and helpful. They completely live up to their high ranking. Absolutely eat here!

Great little place for breakfast. Fast friendly service. Sunny outside seating for 8 people. Inside seating for more with a couple of tables up front by the sunny windows. Very nice food. Recommend Avocado three ways which comes with three slices of toast covered in avocado one with crispy bacon, one with a fried egg and one with a slice of tomato. Also includes a fruit bowl.

So, I don't know if it was because we ate breakfast outside, eggs and sheep cheese that made it stinky, but it was. My breakfast was a bit fishy smelling. I only ate my potatoes. We will eat indoors next time. Cute building though.

Such a great breakfast! My only regret is not going back to try more dishes! It is not big and you may have to wait for a table, but worth the wait. Great service and better food! This place is a can't Miss! I recommend the crepes!

I wish this place well, but the three avacado toasts (tomato, egg, bacon) were not particularly interesting and the setting is pretty cafeteria like. I would suggest that they improve the bread on the avocado toasts -- maybe consider a bit of sauce as well -- and make a little more effort at decor.

Ate breakfast here with my family & I would definitely go back. We had a short wait and it was so worth it. The walls have cute graphic designs on the wall and the place is small which adds to the charm. Everyone at the table enjoyed their food, it came out so fast and the service was great. If you’re in the area and looking for a cute place to go with good food I recommend highly!

We were able to get the last table outside before heading to Fisherman’s Wharf. Everything was excellent and the service was friendly and efficient. We were especially impressed by the wonderful fresh fruit bowl served with each order. One of our best meals in San Francisco!

SUCH a good breakfast spot! Service and food were both excellent. So good, in fact, that we came back for a second breakfast later in the week. I was especially impressed with the fresh ingredients - my berry crepe was STUFFED with fresh berries and my daughter's bagel came with fresh avocado & tomato and a bowl of amazing fruit salad.

Friendly and tasty! Frittata and the bagel were very good. The french toast with the caramalized banana is also a very nice bomb of sweetness ;)Moreover, you get a lot for your money compared to other locations.

Really yummy breakfast spot by the Embarcadero. I had the strawberry grapes that were so thin and delicious. My family had the waffles with fruit and whipped cream and love them. It is a small, intimate place with friendly servers. Good little spot to eat at.

Thankfully we started one of our mornings at Eight AM. We simply had a superb breakfast that our whole family enjoyed. The dining process was efficient as they got us in and out but we were never rushed. However, our hungry group appreciated the quick service. The meal was just delicious! Can't wait to go back.

The 🥑 toast was pretty good. It comes three ways and I chose to have two with eggs and one with tomato. It could have done with some seasoning I think, and a touch of lemon/chilli/etc to liven it up, but that may just be personal preference. The fruit bowl was a good complement - it's a lot of food and it feels healthy, and pushed me to score this a 4 over a more average rating. Coffee was pretty standard, nothing that special really.

Amazingly delicious place to have American breakfast! It’s really hard to choose from the menu because everything is so tasty. The avocado toast and the bagel with salmon are a must try for sure. The service is great, and the price is totally worth it. You can even seat outside and enjoy some fresh air while you eat! Just try to go early or be prepared to wait because you may find a line (specially on the weekends).
