First off I want to say the staff here is so nice - I found this on Yelp last minute and ran over here at 1:55 and I was worried it would be too late to order food but they were more than happy to make me a chorizo breakfast burrito! And I'm so glad they did because it was exactly what u wanted! Some crunch from the onions and nice and cheesy but not too greasy. I wish it was a little bigger but that's okay, this is probably better for me haha Will definitely be coming back here to try other things

Such a cutesie and intimate place to eat. My menu favorites are the mushroom empanadas- super tastey and filling, the Latino salad- their dressing is to die for, the tamales- fresh and hot, the orange lemonade juice- I will never drink plain orange juice again, I'm hooked!, and the café con Leche (w/ oatmilk). Aroma is a great café to stop in when you're on-the go! Love this place and I hope they stay open FOREVER! The staff is SUPER friendly and sweet too

Was nearby and needed a quick bite before getting back on the road and found this little gem. We had the bagel breakfast sandwich and the vegetable wrap and a couple of their scones and they were really great!! The quality and the amount that each item had inside was generous. Very nice people and would definitely go back. Great cafe!

Delicious! Stayed a block away and traveled all over for breakfast/brunch. Stopped by here for breakfast on my last morning in SF - realized I should have come every morning! I had the plate of beans, rice, egg and plantain. Incredibly good. My friends had the sandwiches and we were fighting to trade bites.

This is a tiny spot with 4 seats, mostly for pickup orders! I got the Chorizo Breakfast Burrito (chorizo, eggs, cheese, potatoes, and cilantro aioli) for $7.50, and a Large Iced Americano. They made the breakfast burrito fresh and provided house-made green salsa upon request! The green salsa was very fresh and, best of all, the burrito was piping hot! It wasn't too heavy or dripping in chorizo oil. Super solid as I'm always on the hunt for breakfast burritos!
