I'd like to meet the person who developed this station so I can personally thank him or her for building it in such a way that the 90 degrees of afternoon sun beats down on anyone waiting for a Northbound train.

No really, it's awesome. Thanks for…More »

Review #200!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Before I begin, I would like to say this. Yelping is not something you can do on your own. Many, many people contributed to my Yelping. I would like to thank my parents for teaching me how to write, the SF Muni bus driver…More »

In one week, I'll be living on the other side of San Francisco and will no longer feel like a prisoner to 19th Avenue.

Why are you so warm in the mornings?

And it's not me, it's you.

I know it's not me since I walk DOWNHILL to get to you. Soon as I get down your stairs, I feel like I'm crawling into the depths of a sauna. But not a 120 degree sauna. One that starts…More »

(Review is for the International Terminal)

I mostly use the International Terminal when I fly in and out of SFO and I am one of its biggest fans. Since most international flights take off at night and I make my business trips in the morning, the…More »

Richmond to Financial District
San Francisco, CA 94121

Category: Public Transportation

Neighbourhood: Outer Richmond

4.0 star rating
  9/7/2008 First to Review

If you live in the Outer Richmond (especially between 22nd - 28th Ave) and normally take the 38AX downtown in the morning, you may want to consider this bus. The perk of taking the 38AX from these streets is that 25th Ave is the last stop so soon as…More »

 9. MUNI - 5 Fulton

Inbound toward Downtown
San Francisco, CA

4.0 star rating
  9/7/2008

This is the bus I take when I sell myself near the Civic Center. Although riding along the park is pretty, making thirty dollars for five minutes of work can't be beat... even when I'm doing it in an alley near the capital building.

Unless something…More »

You know what's awesome about this BART station, compared to some of the SF stations?

The fact that when you walk down the stairs, you can buy your ticket, enter the station, head down the stairs, and be standing at the platform all within 1 minute.…More »

Words can't express how in love I am with the new http://transit.511.org website. I always thought the old one came straight out of the Prodigy/dial-up days of 1995. It was difficult to navigate, it didn't provide that much useful information, it was…More »

Neighbourhoods: Laurel Heights, Western Addition/NOPA

1.0 star rating
  Update - 9/17/2009

I have not ridden this bus in 6 months, but the mere sight of it makes me cringe.

Things I still don't miss about the 38:
-It takes 45 minutes to get from Union Square to the mid-Richmond
-It's packed every minute of the day, every day of the week
-The…More »

I mostly work in the peninsula but for a few days of the month, I'm lucky enough to stay in the city on the bay and commute to our office in the Financial District. After much research on http://transit.511.org, I discovered that the 38AX makes its…More »

I'm changing my review already.

For the sheer fact that I've never had to wait for anything (security line, coffee, food, bathroom), John Wayne gets 5 stars.

Recently updated lists from Jared S.

Bean There, Drank That (29)

I need coffee in the morning like you need to stop wearing jorts.

Hayes-y Shade of Winter (17)

Lost in the Hayes.

Besties (41)

If James Franco can teach a class about himself, I can certainly create a list of my favorite reviews.

Don't (Lower) Haight (11)

The Lower Haight doesn't apologize to anyone. For anything.

Real Reviews about Unreal Things (11)

Although Yelp wants me to write reviews about real businesses, restaurants and bars, some of my favorite moments have been writing about the people, places or things that provide entertainment in my life (or in some circumstances, make me want to barf my brains out-- yes, I'm talking about you White Creamy Liquids).

Castro: The Food is Gay Too (22)

bisexual burgers and lesbian latkes and gay ganache, oh my!

The Burrito Chronicles (8)

I could eat Mexican or Spanish food every day for the rest of my life. Here are some of the places I've been to in the Bay area. If you can think of anything else, please let me know. I'll make any excuse to eat beans and fart for the rest of the day.

The Diet Riot: Places With (Relatively) Healthy Eats (11)

Trying to shed a pound (or twenty)? Sick of eating fried chicken every night (is that even possible)? Check out some of these places that won't make your Weight Watchers points skyrocket.

Lifestyles of the Richmond Famous (31)

The glory that is known as the Outer and Inner Richmond. Come visit us for cheap eats and angry Russians who assault you in front of your apartment (or maybe that just happens to me...)

Rants & Raves (21)

Remember that time I got really annoyed at some place's sh!tty customer service or poor excuse for food and I came home and feverishly typed on my keyboard (that glows in the dark) about my horrific experience and it ended up being pretty entertaining?

Here's my compilation of all those moments. Treasure them like I treasure  our friendship.
