Reviews for Shari's Cafe and Pies in San Bruno, CA
Recent visit...service is good but ignored near the end due to more customers. Noise level increased made dinner conversation... impossible. Be seated near windows to avoid noise and crashing dishes. At the window, seat toward middle to avoid noisy dishcrashing at station. Food is good Chinese chicken salad needs cilantro to be more authentic. See new pictures. Threeexperiences...one Dine In with the prime rib salad, that is really tasty and the service was excellent in spite of CoVid19. Second time, county closed the Dine In service. We went elsewhere. Third time, we had a supper of chopped steak salad, and myson had the chopped steak dinner, and my wife had grilled salmon. Good service and no surprises. We should have went Wednesdayfor free slice of pie! Read more
We read good reviews about the food before deciding to dine at this place and did not recieve the same experience as other... reviewers none of us enjoyed the food it had no flavor the potato soup was way too watery we pretty much just dropped off 110dollars for nothing. I did let our server know so he can give the cook feedback I hope he's allowed to do that because we alldeserve getting our moneys worth! The server was nice gave us good service. Maybe the day shift cook is better who knows. Read more
Enjoyed a club sandwich and a delicious slice of marionberry pie. Would come back again, prices were very reasonable also.
Enjoyed having breakfast at Shari?s in San Bruno. Clean restaurant and good service. I had their Cinnamon Roll French Toast and... it was so yummy, and so filling! You can get it on its own or as a breakfast combo, but it definitely filled me up on itsown. The other people in my party had a Meat Lover?s Skillet with Buttermilk Pancakes, a BYO Omelette with Stuffed Hash Brownsand French Toast, and the Farmer?s Breakfast Combo - everyone enjoyed their meals.

Smoked bbq spare ribs off Shari's summer menu. Delicious. The gentleman who helped me was very friendly.
Pretty good patty melt. Fries were crispy also, which is a plus. Nice place that's open relatively late (until 11pm). Pies are... amazing as well. Read more
Completely disappointing experience. Super soggy fries and the smallest french dip sandwich I have ever seen. The sandwich was... on the smallest bun and I ate one half of the sandwich in 4 bites. I am not a big person either - a petite middle aged woman. Mykids were shocked at how small it was. The meat and au jus were flavorless as well. The dining area is dated and somewhat dirtyas well. My family wasn't impressed at the food quality and portions for the prices. You are better going somewhere else. Idon't think I would return here ever again. Read more
Updated review: 04/01/2022: One of the great things about Shari's is, you can have breakfast for dinner. I had the $15 country... fried steak and eggs, +$1 for loaded hash browns. It comes with french toast or pancakes. The food tasted fine. Service was slowas usual. I noticed they raised the price of the Fri-Sat prime rib by +$2. It no longer comes with a soup or salad, insteadreplaced by a dinner roll. Updated 02/14/2022: Pro tip: At Shari's, you can add an extra beef patty for $3. I believe they are8oz patties. That is not necessary because I was really full from their single patty burger. My hangover burger $13 was awesome.This is probably one of the best burgers in San Bruno. It came with bacon, crispy hash browns, egg, lettuce, red onions, tomato.I added Swiss cheese +$1 and guacamole $1. Service is usually slow here. But still, this was a very good meal. Updated02/11/2022: Good times as always at Shari's. We had the 3x 10 oz prime ribs $21 each (Fri-Sun only), cinnamon roll french toast$11 and prime rib dip $13. We didn't order it though, but they have a Valentine's weekend $30 meal for two that comes with pie.At dinner time, the restaurant was full with a short line. I'm thinking it was because of the slow kitchen. Our food took abouthalf an hour to come out. Service was as expected for a full house. Updated 10/20/2021: Heads up, free slice of pie onWednesdays 4pm-10pm. Service was a little slow. We didn't see our waiter until 15 minutes after we've been seated. The steakswere good though. I was surprised about the free slice of pie on Wednesday 4pm-10pm. We ended up taking it to go because we wereso full. Original review: Shari's was not crowded at all at 6:30pm. We had the prime rib (available only after 4pm on Fridayand the weekend) and a T-bone steak & eggs. They ran out of the regular steaks. Right after we ordered our prime ribs, it was nolonger available as the party behind us tried to order it after seeing our meals. The 10oz prime rib Read more
