  The owner and his wife are the NICEST people! They were very warm and welcoming, and the food was delicious. The portions were very generous, and you can taste the love in the food. Reminded me a lot of homemade food growing up.
  
  Definitely coming back!

  We LOVE this cafe. The owners have run it themselves since 1978. The decor is funky and showing it's age. (No remodeling please)She cooks while he serves customers and takes payments.
  This place is not for you if your short on time. It can get busy and only Janet does the cooking. Be patient because it's worth the wait.
  The food is outstanding and made with care.
  The prices cannot be beat. The plates hold big servings and the ingredients are fresh.
  It's located in a miserable neighborhood but There is no other place like it in the city....

  We were hungry and looking forward for a no frills place.   We encounter this restaurant and gave it a try.  The owner also takes food orders and he is very attentive.  The place is a bit in decay but it has its charm.  All works and it is clean.  The food..I had eggs with fried tomatoes and potatoes.  The mash potatoes were too greasy for me.. in general my food was not the healthiest but still seeing oil coming out of the food was not so great.  My bud had pancakes and he loved them.  He thought they were the best in the world.   I think they had too much butter.  Anyways.  As you see..it can meet other needs but not mine so that is why I gave it 3 stars

  This tiny little place is family owned and everything they prepare is so delicious. We have tried their garden omlette and buttermilk pancakes! The wait time could be a little longer (on weekends) because they have limited seating. If you feel like treating yourself with good quality food and you don't have time restriction this place is definitely worth a try! Good work guys!

  Those of you reading this that are looking for a no-frills, greasy spoon, and inexpensive breakfast dining experience in San Francisco, look no further because "Moulin Rouge Restaurant" will have you covered. I was in shock because "inexpensive" and "San Francisco" is something that you will not find in the same sentence. And when you think of Moulin Rouge, the first thought that comes to mind is a French cabaret. Even though the name says that, this place is not any of that at all.
  
  Located directly on Geary St. (and in between Larkin and Hyde St's) in the Tenderloin neighborhood of San Francisco, this place has been serving up delicious homemade breakfast platters for years. As my lady and I were starving after making the 90 minute drive from Sacramento, we definitely needed food to fuel us throughout the morning and early afternoon. Parking can be tricky and pay attention because just about everything is metered during normal business hours. We were fortunate to find a parking space about a block away.
  
  As I mentioned this place is as no-frills as you will get. Don't expect a fancy dining experience when coming here. It almost reminds me of a hole-in-the-wall joint that has a rustic 1960's feel to it. Space is limited but when my lady and I arrived (which was around 10:30am on a Friday morning), there was only one other customer. Once entering, we were greeted by what I am thinking was the owner and his wife. Very friendly and down to earth people.
  
  Once seated, we were given menus and ice waters. I ended up ordering an egg (cooked over easy) with a stack of pancakes and a side of fresh fruit. She ordered two eggs (also cooked over easy), a generous serving of bacon strips, and hash browns. As I mentioned, both our entrees were very inexpensive; only $9.99/each for our meals (not including drinks).
  
  Both our plates arrived in just under 10 minutes. My pancakes were warm, fluffy, and went beautifully with the side of butter. Her hash browns also had a nice crispy texture while the bacon was thick, salty, and savory. Definitely something you would expect at this type of establishment. All in all, the customer service, food, and dining experience was above average. My rating, a solid four stars.
