Dutch crunch, and I couldn’t leave the SF area without trying some sour dough! Lucky for me Jeff was down to split, so I got to try the best of both worlds. Man that’s some killer bread, and everything in between is super fresh and tasty.
Try the Jim Rome with avocado, cheddar, Ike’s red pesto, and turkey – or make your own masterpiece! This location is small, a few outdoor tables – you may consider taking it to go.
