"No one would fault you for having passed by this tiny shop without notice. But wise ones know that despite its small stature, Joe’s is a powerhouse in the San Francisco diner game, serving eggs made to order, healthy portions of corned beef hash, and golden pancakes that beg to be smothered in syrup. There’s a smattering of Chinese American dishes in the mix, too, but whatever you order, make sure you’ve got enough cash to cover the bill." - Lauren Saria
