About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Romantic
  • Fancy
Shoji's cafe program focuses on sharing our love for both traditional and modern coffee, as well as tea, to you. Through carefully curated local and international partnerships, we prepare these special offerings to highlight the producer's flavors profiles. We offer only coffee and tea during our cafe hours.

*Reservations are required for indoor seating. Please note that parties of 2-3 guests may expect to be seated with another party in the same booth for a 60 minute block period (we will always try to accommodate so that guest can stay longer than their reservation but please be aware of the block period)

    I made lunch reservations after reading a review in the SF Chronicle. When we got there we were informed that there is no food available for lunch, only dinner. At lunch you can only get tea and coffee and other drinks. This was not made clear to us. All four of us has to look for another place to get food at lunch.

    Came here for a birthday drink with sister and brother in law. Was originally seated outside but the kind hostess remembered and did move us into a booth after a while! We loved the ambience, especially with the rich red booths and huge mural - drinks were top notch too!
