Trace

A great breakfast location right next to SF Moma! Yes, it is expensive (hotel restaurant in sf, makes sense), but the service is phenomenal and the food is delicious! They use great quality ingredients, and you can taste it.

Stayed at the W, searched for a nice breakfast in SF and ended up happily at the Trace in the hotel. All four of us (foodies) loved our breakfast and coffee, key recommendation is to order of Damien’s secret menu. Damien is a member of the team who crafted several uniques dishes that were not on the menu. We loved it.

Surprisingly tasty breakfast inside of W hotel. Start serving 6:30am, delicious egg white scramble (herb oil, crispy chickpeas, gold beets, arugula, lemon tahini dressing, wheat toast) attention to details, including toast not smothered with butter, rather provided square bowls of butter, citrus marmalade and ketchup. Friendly and cheerful young lady staff Jane was attentive, recommended freshly green juice to no disappointment. Will definitely bring my friends next time

I tried the apple French toast. It was excellent. Nice thick slices of bread and cooked to perfection. It came with candied walnuts and fried apples. I really liked that they brought some extra syrup on the side. I didn’t need it because I don’t like my French toast swimming in syrup. For those that do, they give you some extra on the side. My friend tried the Belgian waffle with dark chocolate, strawberries and bananas. It was very rich and was like a dessert but also very good. Both are recommended.

Excellent service and excellent food. One of the best spots in the city. Located next to the W hotel you should definitely try this place if you're looking for something nice, less casual.

6.5 Salmon Benedict was really good and crispy potatoes really nicely done. Better than a lot of fancy brunch spots in sf. Alvin is great

Terrific "lunch on the fly"! Delicious burger and fries, soup and ice cream sandwich! Che was a wonderful server!

Great spot next to the restaurant. Perfect for any work meetings. You can use the $25 daily credit from the hotel here. Breakfast and lunch were good. Coffee was good. Service was excellent!

Trace is my favorite breakfast spot in San Francisco. Highlights: green juice, avocado toast, bacon, and excellent service. When Damian makes a recommendation, (such as lemon oil for the avocado toast) say, "yes". He's legit.

Had a lovely brunch for my birthday here! Portions are plentiful and all the food we had (burger and chicken&waffle) were all delicious! Alvin our server was very friendly and professional :)

Outstanding service! Had breakfast here 2 mornings in a row (the W Hotel charges a $35/night resort fee which you can use as a credit towards food/beverages). The staff in this restaurant were amazing. Friendly, prompt…they even remembered our exact order from the day before. The lattes were perfection, and the food was very good. Never thought I’d be motivated to write a review of a hotel breakfast, but here it is! These people are just too good not to give them a shout out.

While staying at the W hotel, I had $40 each day to spend at the property. I was able to enjoy a light fare and coffee at Trace. I got the twisted cinnamon roll, fruit bowl and a cup of coffee. I didn’t realize that if you’re staying at the W hotel, the coffee is waived until I got the check. I enjoyed everything that morning and the staffs were friendly and efficient. Would recommend if you’re nearby or staying at the W.

Okay, the decor is nice, and the service is great. The food didn't even taste terrible - but there was so little of it. When I pay $30 for a salmon, I expect it to at least come with some filling sides.

Trace has really nice decor and is a good setting for a date. Unfortunately, the food is only of average quality. The appetizers are really good (oysters and tomato soup were great), but the mains were only ok. Overall, it was good, but wouldn't go back

Really cool decor, but the food is overpriced and pretty ordinary. Great coffee though.

My recent visit didn’t go as smoothly as I had hoped. I waited a bit longer than expected for service, and my order wasn’t exactly what I had in mind. The team did their best to fix it, but I left feeling a little disappointed. Hopefully, next time will be better.

I came here because of the great Google ratings and was quite disappointed. The latte tasted like it was made from an airport machine and too watery. I got the Tracy omelette ($26!). The toast was cold and stale, the omelette too cheesy and dry, and the potatoes were soggy. I would not come back as there are many other great brunch options in the city, especially for the price. My server named Alvin was very attentive and helpful though. When I mentioned the latte was watery they made me another one with a double shot.

The Asian woman at the reception was so mean. No hospitality. The wait staff were very nice.
