Cinderella Bakery & Cafe - San Francisco (CA)

5 /5 Hannah Lin: Amazing store for Russian Food. We ordered the borscht, pelmeni, olivye, and medovik. It did take a bit for our main dishes to come out but its a family run restaurant so i was a-ok waiting. We had a tub of olivye and slice of medovik to snack on anyways so all good. The olivye was quite salty but i do tend to like my food quite salty so it was very tasty to me. The medovik or honey cake was the highlight of the meal, not too sweet, super soft and filled with pieces of what seem to be walnuts and sour cream frosting that had a great tang (what i think is often missing from american cream cheese frosting) the borscht was earthy and comforting and also vegetarian just fyi. the pelmeni tasted nicely rich from the meat and even better when dunked into the sour cream

4 /5 nori: I ordered borscht and the potato vareniki. Each dish was a generous portion, sufficient as a meal on its own— however, having walked around all day on an empty stomach, I managed both in one (long) sitting. The borscht was hearty and flavorful. The bread that it came with was a fine vessel to soak up the soup but not that tasty by itself. The potato vareniki was surprisingly bland, but I enjoyed them once I got my hands on a salt shaker. There were plenty of options for outdoor seating. Service was friendly.

5 /5 RAGHU PRADEEP: Me and my partner went to this bakery on the 30th of December at around 11 AM. It got really crowded in like 30 min or so. We got the mushroom and potato piroshi, sweeet cheese and beef blinchiki, strawberry cream turnover, hazelnut financier, eclairs and napoleon cake. The sweet dishes were definitely good. We also liked the Pirsoshki. For a group of Indians, blinchiki might not hit the spot very well (obviously because we wanted some spice/ onions and green chilies probably in the beef filling), but I would definitely recommend this place. San Francisco prices-so not super wallet friendly.

5 /5 Sylwia K: I was craving some sweet Eastern European breakfast/dessert and all the dishes with farmer’s cheese (in Polish: twarog) hit the spot! The sweet cheese vareniki/pierogi, syrniki and blinchiki are solid and taste homemade!

5 /5 benfam3: A hidden gem in SF. Find this place and find a little slice of Heaven in the Richmond district. Great huge selection of baked goods and Russian specialities like Peroshki, and dumplings, pastries and cookies great coffee and tea. Nice seating area out on the sidewalk. I often stop here when visiting the city or doing an airport run. Fun place to take visitors to. Highly recommended!
