Sky Cafe

This place is where you should go right now. Read the review later.A really top notch blend of comfort food and high-end culinary wow wow. The Banh Mi has sandwich bread that is flaky like a croissant that compliments the spicy sauce quite well. The Argentine Chimuchurri dish was amazing with expertly done asparagus. The superlative Egg roll appetizer has a great sauce and is large enough to share.This joint is worth going out of your way for and it's right by SFO if you are catching a flight. Can I get a YUM YUM?

Just beyond a 5 star experience here for so many reasons!We stopped here after a day in SF, and just needed a nice place to sit for a while. This cozy spot has a front space with a lovely bar, and more seating in the back indoor patio as well. They have a wine and beer menu which is what I needed at the moment (though no draft beers). All the servers we interacted with were super sweet and friendly. One of my favorite things about this place was their Frenchie Jack, who is just happily roaming around the restaurant. The owner was so sweet and brought treats out for my kids to do tricks with Jack. (He's got some good ones!). The owner also showed us the band set in the back for when they have live music and I loved that he let my ecstatic kiddos play around on it. FOOD: - if there were more vegan restaurants like this, there would probably be more vegans!- I love that it's an international menu, ie with dishes with Thai influence, Japanese, Korean, Malaysian, North African influences etc. - We had the Impossible Patty burger which was PERFECT, I wish we got two! A soft, lightly crisp bun, caramelized onions, lettuce/tomato. - The Malaysian Chicken Satay dish was also very good, the "chicken" paired perfectly with the peanut sauce/ Can't wait to be back to try more of their dishes!

We were looking for a dog friendly restaurant nearby and found this place. They have a patio in the back for us. There were live music and art photos on the wall. Apparently, the restaurant owner is a huge supporter for music and art. Recommend to visit on Saturday if you are into music and art. We ordered waffle and "chicken" sandwich and "Lamb" Kebab with rice. They were delicious! You hardly can tell that they are not meat. It has the texture of actual chicken meat and the taste of actual lamb. Love it!

First time being here. The decor is simple and cozy. The food was pretty good. The service was nice and friendly. The menu is not overwhelming. There are other items I like to try next time. It seems there is live music too.Bonus point, it is vegan

Wow, I continue to be impressed with each visit. This is an updated review. I returned again with a friend. We ordered cauliflower wings, chimichurri, jalapeño poppers, and lamb kebab. All delicious, although the poppers and chimichurri had more oil that I wanted too, I would still purchase them again.They have a very nice cozy outdoor area where they frequently have live music. If you're interested in this option, they seem to advertise all their live music options on their IG. You can find a link to their calendar on their social media pages as well. This seems like a great community place. Food comes out quickly, and service is no nonsense (they don't bother you while you're eating, they refill your drinks, they answer your questions...what more can you ask for?) It is on the pricier side for me, since on average I spend about $40 per person when coming here (but...we do always order a lot of appetizers). But I leave full and satisfied that I spent my money well supporting a restaurant with ties to the community. Seriously, every friend I've taken here is so impressed. I cannot wait to return!

My partner and I are working towards eating less animal products, but we also love so many different cuisines that don't have a lot of plant-based options. Then, I stumbled upon sky cafe! I thought, what a cool concept, and finally got to try it on a Saturday for lunch.We got there around 1pm, and the host offered us seating inside or on their patio where live music was playing (you can hear it in my video). The ambience was very warm and inviting with local artists' work on the wall for sale. About a quarter of the restaurant was filled, and parties continued to come and go throughout our time there. Many items on the menu intrigued us, but we settled for one main and two appetizers to share. Everything was very tasty, and I can't wait to go back to try more things! Sky Cafe seems to make a lot of great intentional and thoughtful choices!

4.5 STARSThe best part of any post/reel/TikTok are the keyboard warrior comments.A chef posted a reel on Pad Krapow/Krapao (Thai basil stir-fry)...and I went straight to the comments section. "Not onions, blasphemy!""Italian basil?!""That's not how my mother...grandmother...aunt...wife...baby momma....side chick makes it!"Welp.Sky Café serves a Vegan Pad Krapow...with red onions and white onions. It may not be traditional but it satisfied my craving for pad krapow. Although I'm not a vegan, I was sad to see Nick's on Grand (Vegan Filipino) but happy that their successor, Sky Café is serving up some delicious vegan fare....that doesn't make you miss the real deal. Sky Café is open for takeout, delivery, indoor dining, and patio dining (dog-friendly). M E N UGlobal Vegan Fare - American (sandwiches, burgers), Mexican (burritos), Chinese (sweet & sour chicken), Indian (thali), Filipino (sisig), Malaysian (satay), Thai (pad krapow), Japanese (katsu), Middle Eastern (kebab), etc. If there's something on the menu that catches your eye, def call ahead to inquire about availability. They were out of the two things I wanted to try. Beer and wine available. F O O D* Vegan Pad Krapow: Soy protein w/ basil, onion, garlic, chili, green onion, rice ($17): https://tinyurl.com/kcmbyaaw++Yo! Egg ($3)++Requested extra spicyThe basil stir-fry was hot, savory, sweet, and basil-y with the soy protein, bell peppers, and onions soaking up all the delicious flavors. Gotta have the obligatory sunny side up egg which looked and tasted like the real deal...down to yolk that oozed creamy liquid gold. The egg was overseasoned and very salty tho. It's served with basmati rice that's used for all their rice dishes. It def hit the spot. S E R V I C EFriendly and prompt food service at opening time. When you're finished eating, pay at the counter. A M B I A N C ECasual and rustic indoor dining area with exposed brick walls and a back patio (hasn't changed much since Nick's). There's live music on the weekends. There's an adorable resto dog named Jax (?) roaming around. =)P A R K I N GStreet and lot parking. Overall, vegan or not, if you're looking for something different and/or to satisfy everyone in your party wanting a different cuisine, give Sky Café a try!

Yummy vegan cafe with international dishes. I enjoyed the Japan "Chicken" Katsu, can't go wrong with crispy "chicken", mashed potatoes & gravy and fresh vegetables! My husband had the "steak" special and said it was really good too. It's always such a treat to dine at an all vegan restaurant! The staff was attentive and helpful too. Great place to eat whenever we're in the area.

I love every bit of this place! My boss came to town and he is vegan, but I wanted him to try our Filipino dishes and this place was a perfect match! The flavors are similar to home yet very well done for a vegan place! Staff are always friendly and hepful, they had an acoustic singer the day we went here.Ambiance was great even the outisde was super busy, you felt you are in a good place still to enjoy your meal

Vegetarian Magic!Now that I've tried several of their dishes with my vegetarian friends, I can successfully vouch for this place.Kenny, the chef, is a magician turning vegetarian food into something that tastes like the real thing.Here are my go-to favorites:Japanese chicken Katsu: For tofu this is a amazing. The texture, the sauce, it has that crispness that reminds me of chicken katsu. Really a job well done. Comes with mashed potatoes and is my top favorite.Fried chicken sandwich : On par with something like a non spicy fast food restaurant. It's breaded tofu but has chicken spices and a great chicken chew that reminds me of chicken..I dare you to find a better fake chicken sandwich. This is a 5 star dish.Hamburger: This legit tastes like a better version of McDonald's Big Mac. Same sauce and a good grill on the impossible fake meat blend. It really has the bite and chewiness of meat with this fake meat burger and has a really good flavor to it. It's even topped with a fake egg that tastes like a scrambled egg. It's a really good fake meat burger and truly the best fake burger I've ever had (and I've tried many via food trucks and diners).Onto the other dishes I've tried:BLT and Bahn Mi sandwich are both good. The BLT tastes like turkey bacon but uts veggie bacon, and the bahn mi is tofu with a lot of fresh veggies on a roll.Thailand Pad Kra Prow has the consistency of chicken with their veggie meat. Interesting dish with Asian flavors and rice. Sisig: This was a great fake meat genius dish for those of you who like sisig. It has that sweet and sour punch to it. Really interesting dish.If you're a vegetarian or a vegan, or if you just want to try something new this is such a unique experience because it's fake meat that really comes as close to the real thing as you're going to get.
