    This review is based on the beverage only. I walk around often and usually frequent Pressed Juicery for my healthy drink options, but I wanted to try something different. Maybe the same but at a different shop is a better way of putting it. Inside Plates (food court) at the One Market Plaza building facing the Embarcadero, you can find Cafe Elena. Was going to get 16 oz but for only $.50 more, 20 oz for $6.99 was a no brained. Asked for the Vegetable Juice, but it wasn't available. :( Opted for the Green Juice (apple, spinach, celery, orange, lemon) since that wasn't available. I'd say it's not completely juice as it had noticeable bits and pieces of apple and spinach, and couldn't taste the celery at all. The apple had the hard core pieces, which got me spitting out. They are super friendly and courteous, and mom pop, but the juice wasn't what I was looking for but it did taste very good. Sweet, fresh tasting, and refreshing but I'll have to try the Veg Juice which is healthier next time.

    This food court located right across Ferry building is a nice spacious place with five different eating places. I am glad I decided to eat at Cafe Elena Mediterranean food place . They have good choices for vegetarian options. Makloube turned out to be delicious, healthy, and filling. Black coffee good. Prices reasonable. Service polite and friendly. A great place to go in a group with family and friends when visiting pier 39, and fisherman's wharf. Hassle free, shareable, enjoyable eating option...

    Best salad in downtown sf! I love their satoush salad. It comes with warm chicken breast, tabouli, pita chips, feta, and dressing. You can add hummus for $1 and it's totally worth it. Overall it has a mom and pop feel with lots of items to choose from. I would recommend if you work downtown.
