This cozy Marina bistro is the spot for a hearty Americana burger and inventive cocktails in a fun, laid-back atmosphere.
"Do yourself a favor and get the brunch burger at Causwells. If that’s a little too much for 11am, the rest of the morning menu isn’t super long but has everything you need: cocktails, eggs, salads, and a buttermilk biscuit side that is a necessity. Causwells is one of the more packed places on weekends in the Marina, with a bunch of outdoor tables that are usually full, too." - julia chen 1, lani conway, ricky rodriguez
"Causwells’ happy hour perhaps isn’t the most robust menu around, but it’s guaranteed the drinks will be unique, with barman Elmer Mejicanos designing the refreshments. The trio of $10 cocktails rotates but currently includes a banana slushee and the Causwells Martini. Add on some pull apart bread with dips ($10) or classic deviled eggs ($8). Hours: Monday through Sunday, 3 to 5 p.m." - Flora Tsapovsky
"Causwells’s award-winning burger is a true phenomenon in the Marina. The sizable patty has been likened to a souped-up In-N-Out Double-Double, with its char-grilled patties and perfectly melted cheese. The house sauce and crispy onions are a particularly nice finish to this very messy endeavor." - Dianne de Guzman, Eater Staff
"Causwells is known for its burger, but you'd be remiss to overlook the rest of the Southern-leaning seasonal menu of salads, charred Brussels sprouts, deviled eggs, and more. There's something for everyone, making it a great pick when dining with a disparate group, and the always-changing cocktail menu by Causwells partner Elmer Mejicanos is worth a look." - Dianne de Guzman, Eater Staff
"We like Causwells for brunch, but it’s also a great utility restaurant for dinner. You can come here on any given night with a few friends, a date, or wander in alone and be fine sitting at the bar. They have a substantial craft beer and by-the-glass wine list to choose from while you wait for your food, and pretty much everything on the menu is good. That said, the burger is what you should order." - will kamensky
