Aracely Cafe

After a challenging uphill bike ride from the east bay, we discovered this cafe, it was an unexpected oasis with a Caribbean vibe that instantly transported us. The decor was stylish and relaxing, making it feel like a little slice of paradise in an underdeveloped area. Though I was initially skeptical, the atmosphere won me over immediately, so we decided to give it a shot. The experience was flawless: from the creamy latte and the well seasoned Brussels sprouts to the tri tip sandwich (with even perfectly fried French fries), every bite was delightful. The lounge seating, outdoor fireplace, lively music, and attentive service all added to the charm. Especially in today’s inflated world, the reasonable prices were a pleasant surprise. It was just a quick stop, but I left feeling like I’d been on a mini tropical getaway. Highly recommend!

A little gem. Delicious brunch and relaxing atmosphere. Friendly service. Cozy outdoor and indoor seating. Truffle garlic fries was tasty. Fresh squeeze juices were excellent way to start the day in sunny Treasure Island. It took awhile to notice the entrance next to a park and apartment buildings. The egg Benedict’s with grilled quinoa Pattie’s and smoked ham was creative. The pork belly egg in a whole was juicy and excellent caramelized pork belly. The winner was the warm dark chocolate macadamia brownie served warm and soft. Overall a great place to stop by on the way to San Francisco.

We wanted a coffee and somehow ended up on Treasure Island by mistake. We fell in love with this place. So charmed by all the attention to detail and the overall vibe. The food was unbelievably good and unexpected too. I had the Delicata Squash. My husband had a cheeseburger and garlic fries. 😋 Highly recommended.

We came here for a party if 16 on Mother’s Day. The atmosphere was AMAZING. Gorgeous outside dining patio complete with a cool 3 piece jazz band. The food was all delicious. Something for everyone, really. The kitchen was so generous and accommodating. Did little things like sent out a complimentary Mother’s Day petit four dessert platter and also made veggie empanadas when they realized a few of us didn’t eat meat. Lexi our server was kind, knowledgeable, graceful, hospitable and so on top of everything even on the busy busy day. I’d recommend Aracely for any small to large sized meal/event/occasion. Every mother in our party thought I was the star of the day— thank you Team Aracely

What a gem! Excellent hand made cocktails, Superb tender octopus goes well with the perfectly toasted sourdough, Fresh ceviche, Delicate cardamom pancakes. Everything was WOW! Outdoor seating was inviting; however we chose the most comfortable indoor corner table and I could have stayed all day!

I like the ambiance with the fireplace with two sofas by it, booths along windows that look out into greenery, an outdoor patio with ample seating. The menu has a lot of unique options, some great veggie options, a decent brunch menu which is what I enjoyed. The prices are a bit high; $35 total not including tip for avocado toast with salmon on it and an oat milk latte. Service was attentive and friendly; latte came quickly but the kitchen is a tad slow… noted by other diners who were in a hurry. It wasn’t too slow for me. It’s a relaxed vibe; sit and enjoy.

One of my favourite hidden gems in the Bay Area, I love coming here and feeling disconnected from the hustle & bustle. The brunch menu is superb and the staff are super friendly. Highly recommend checking out if you’re exploring Treasure Island.

This a tucked away cafe on treasure island, oddly by a middle school I believe, but the food was well worth it. The oyster was fresh!!! 8/10 Pork belly was tender and full of flavor 8/10 Definitely check this place out if you find yourself at treasure island

I've always enjoyed coming here for a breakfast that felt like I was not in SF. Sometimes, you just need to leave the Bay Area. Or at least feel like you have left, but actually are still in SF. The food is consistently good, and the staff is always pleasant. The coffee is still good. Many places skimp on quality. This is a good spot for a nice quiet meal. I hate to let everyone know because it's my secret little oasis. But fair is fair. I like it here.

Amazing, creative food with different menu from time-to-time. Presentation was beautiful, flavors were unique and interesting. There were lots of servers, but service was slow, they never checked on us and we had to stare them down to get them to come over but that was the only negative. The food was just spectacular.

This is amazing place! We wanted to eat in SF, but couldn’t find parking. So we go here. The best decision to come to Aracely Cafe! So delicious 🤤

I love the empanada with the different sauce options, the chimichurri sauce was spot on! The banana cream pancake are good too. Top off with a hibiscus refresher is ✨

Excellent service and nice ambience. Would recommend for a quaint dinner. No need to pay for the toll if visiting from SF.

The food was delicious! The Ceasar salad was crispy and the dressing creamy! The fried anchovies great. Rabbit ravioli so tasty& the broth excellent. The monte crisp was also great, perfect poached egg and the fresh marmalade so good. We will be back! Thanks

Amazing hidden breakfast brunch restaurant- loved their food and atmosphere. Choice of food and drinks were plenty in my opinion. Best part is it quiet and away from the hustle bustle. Do not forget to talk a little walk on your way back from treasure Island

Great little spot tucked away out of sight a bit Food was absolutely amazing and the service was on par Menu is great and prices are fair

The dishes and food flavors were immpeccable. Twists on traditional recipes along with dishes not commonly found in white table cloth bay area restaurants. Coming here was a fantastic find and we will surely return for more.

Stopped here while exploring treasure island. Nice vibe. Good service. Great latte. Main entree was good but not great. Easy to walk here from other places and I’d try other food next time. My wife really liked her entree. Parking is also easy.

I visited this cafe because someone in the review section posted a nice view of treasure island. But when I actually went to the place there was no such view. Very limited vegetarian options. Ordered Avocado Toast, Roasted Cauliflowers and Latte. It has nice outdoor dining with a fire so we had a nice time.

Not much of a good selection for me. I ended up with a bacon cheeseburger and salad. The salad dressing was too tart. We were seated outside in the freezing cold. They had a heater above the table that only 3 people could partially feel.

Food was meh. Drinks were good. Service was terrible. We (2 adults and 2 kids) came in around 12:45pm on a Sunday and this place was busy. The waitress told us there would be a 10 minute wait but go ahead and sit at any open table. We sat down and waited about 20 minutes. Meanwhile, we see others come in, get seated and have their orders taken before us. The hostess kept looking over but pretended like we didn’t exist. I had to get up and get our own menus and finally got our orders in after 30 minutes from one of the waiters. We then waited another 30-45 minutes as our food trickled in. We had: - Chicken and waffles (chicken was dry. Waffles and figs were good) - Watermelon salad (good portion. Salad was soggy) - kids burger (kid said she liked it. Ketchup was good but she was also starving) - kids mac and cheese (kid said it was bland and watery. Like cafeteria food) - Matcha latte (yum) - Beer (beer is beer. Can’t go wrong)
