Food is the best! I've seen a little Decline in portions, and what is being premade by delivery, such as the chicken fried steak patties. There chopped of a larger cookies cutter. They all look the same. Very processed. There's a Restaurant in San Jose that uses the same thing. They also look and taste the same.

Got a bagel, avocado and fries here a few nights ago (I'm vegan and there aren't many options) but it was fantastic! The place was packed and service was still friendly and fast. The old-timey diner look is super fun! Would love if they had more vegan options, but I had a great tile here and what I could get was very tasty!

A perfect Divey Diner in the Heart of the Castro. Contrary to many people's experience here - I stopped by here absolutely stone cold sober in the middle of the day to grab lunch and catch up with a friend. And I am so glad I did. We arrived at Orphan Andy's a little after 1:30 PM. The restaurant had customers in it but wasn't too crowded at all. There is a mix of booth seating and bar/counter style seating. We were promptly at a booth when we arrived. The ambiance of this place is extremely cute - lots of flashing lights, and fun decor. Even the table had old music boxes which were a nice touch. For our food I got an order of chocolate chip hot cakes, and my friend got a Monte Cristo with Potato salad on the recommendation of our server. The food was actually so good. The chocolate chip pancakes were the perfect mix of salty and sweet and paired with the whipped butter and maple syrup on the side it was perfection. Arguably the best stack of pancakes I've had here in the bay area. The monte cristo is always a solid combination but Orphan andys did it to perfection - another great example of the salty and sweet flavor combination. By far the highlight of our meal was the service at this restaurant. Both individuals we interacted with were extremely friendly and attentive - for that reason alone I'd come back again. All in all - I had a wonderful time at Orphan Andy's yesterday. Would definitely recommend stopping by here for a mid day meal and I'm looking forward to trying it as a late night option some time soon. Ambiance : 5/5 Service: 5/5 Food: 5/5

Weird that I have live in SF for so long and never been here. I was with a friend and we wanted a fast (less expensive) dinner. We had a drink next door and the headed here. We got to sit in the window booth (though the counter looks fun too). We split an entree and a chocolate malt and both left stuffed. Portions here are huge! We got the turkey bacon cheese melt with onion rings. It was exactly what you expect it to be. It was a little sloppy in construction but definitely ht the spot. The malt could have used a little more malt powder - but hit the spot as well. I will say our server was a doll and made sure we were happy with everything. The bathroom here is less than Ideal - teeny tiny and off the kitchen, so go before you go, if you catch my drift.

Great diner food. Stopped here with my wife on our first day visiting SF. We liked the vibe with lots of locals enjoying their morning breakfast fix. Very friendly service too. We were the first ones in at about 8am and by the time we left it was packed). We got a gigantic amount of food. The stack of hotcakes was quite tall and slathered in butter (we could have gotten a short stack, but why not pay $1 more for the full stack?!). The bacon omelette was no joke - a pile of bacon in there, more than I think I've ever seen in an omelette. Came with a nice portion of home fries and toast). Natural ketchup w/ no artificial sweeteners was a good touch.
