“I've been working here for 2 years now so I know a little bit more about the store compared to most. The food here is fast, tasty, and affordable. My manager's special deal has always been a fan favorite, and there are lots of food items to choose from. I value the generosity from my hard working coworkers and I could not ask for any better people to work with as a team. Despite my overwhelmingly positive opinion, I know that it isn't perfect. Insiders, drivers, and customers alike make mistakes at times which is why I'm thankful for my team member's problem solving skills and patience as well as the friendly and understanding community which I am happy to make someone's day with a freshly cooked pizza.“

“What can I say you guys rock!!! This is just like the pizza 🍕 I grew up with I came in because I hadn’t eaten all day and I was hungry. You’re pizza hit the spot I will definitely come back. The woman who took our order was very friendly thanks for making my day“

“Please do yourself a favor and try their wings. Absolutely delicious. Super crunchy and full of flavor. They claim to have to hottest wings in the Bay Area. I’m too much of a chicken but I dare you.“

“This is a new neighborhood spot for me and wow it did not disappoint! The teokbokki was the perfect balance of sweet and spicy, and the rice cakes were so chewy and fresh! Immediately tasted so delicious 🤤. And the KOREAN FRIED CHICKEN WOWWW, incredibly juicy, crunchy, and tender pieces they had a beautiful presentation. The soy garlic flavor here was especially delicious and I’m so excited to go back for more!

Service was also kind and attentive! Thank you yall ❤️“

“Easy online ordering, crispy crunchy delicious wings, fun flavors and affordable. Satay is BOMB. I would skip Chris’s and get more Lemon Pepper. Jerk wasn’t my fav, it was a bit too Christmas tasting for me and no heat. Slaw was really sweet if you like that… Want to perfect my order and make my way through all the flavors 😊“

“What a great surprise. The food was delicious, and the service was great. We look forward to trying the rest of the menu. I highly recommend the Loco Moco.“

“I visited Mashita Galbi Jjim on a Sunday evening around 6 PM with a party of four, and to my surprise, there was no wait—we were seated right away. With only two staff members working the floor, the restaurant still managed a steady rhythm of service. The space itself is inviting, with a high ceiling that makes it feel airy, a clean bathroom (always a plus), and a generally cozy environment that sets the stage for a comfortable meal.

For food, we ordered two dishes: the pork tonkatsu and their signature galbi jjim. The tonkatsu arrived quickly, golden and crispy, delivering the kind of satisfying crunch and savory bite you’d expect from a well-executed cutlet. The galbi jjim, however, was a different story. It took about 30 minutes to reach our table, which seems to be the norm based on observing other tables. While the wait did build anticipation, it also disrupted the pacing of the meal. When it did arrive, the flavors were solid—rich, hearty, and braised with care—but not quite at the level of depth or complexity I’ve had elsewhere. Personally, I still prefer Daeho’s version, which leans more memorable in both flavor and overall experience.

Service was professional and efficient given the limited staff, though not particularly warm or engaging. It felt more functional than personal, but everything we needed was taken care of without issue.

In terms of ambiance, Mashita balances casual comfort with a slightly polished feel, making it a nice spot for a relaxed meal with friends or family.

Value-wise, the restaurant is fairly priced for the quality and portion sizes. While the food is solid and the dining experience smooth overall, I didn’t find it compelling enough to make this my go-to spot for galbi jjim.

Final verdict: 4/5. A reliable option with cozy ambiance and decent execution, but not quite distinctive enough to stand out in a city with strong competition.“

“Delicious pizza, friendly people! 🙂“

“Highly recommended! Great food and friendly owner.“

“Go here just for the amazing halal burgers. Service is as can be expected in a small sit in.
The burgers are worth ignoring the atmosphere.
It is neat clean and hygienic no doubt. Just not a dine in kinda restaurant.
I go often just for the way out delicious burgers“

“Tried Curry Pizza House in Kent, WA for the first time. Great flavors! Wonderful wings, Desi bread, and pizza! The mango lassis are yummy. Definitely check it out!“

“Have been coming to this place for more than six years now and have always enjoyed the food here. My favorites are the blood sausage, pork rib soup, acorn cold noodle, and assorted pork soup. Very authentic Korean menu items that you can hardly find anywhere else in the Bay Area.“

“Our friends from Alameda recommended Saltbreaker. We made reservations for the next day. When we sat down, we hummed along to the 70's tunes while enjoying our red wine and cocktail. We ordered appetizers, main course, and dessert. All very enjoyable.“

“Cute spot for a first date. Solid food, great staff and a mind numbing amount of beers on tap. The staff playlists are definitive deep cuts and current favorites.“

“The food is good !! Love it 😍“

“10/10 in my book! And I hate to admit that I'm a picky girl. I'm a foodie. Servers are super friendly, vibes are nice with pleasant music in the background that's not too loud. And the food was delicious!

We got:
Mango Habanero wings (one of their specials of the day)
The wings were juicy and the sauce was amazing! Pretty sure they blended actual mango because the mango taste was there. I like spice, so I would say the sauce wasn't spicy at all, and the mango was the more dominant flavor. But it was really good :)

4 piece chicken meal with Mac and cheese and potato salad as our sides. The Mac and cheese was nice and cheesy. It gave classic Mac and cheese. I also think they broil the Mac and cheese with a layer of cheese on the top and then mix it into the Mac and cheese after, because I was getting bits of broiled cheese even on the deeper layers of the cup. Which was great. The potato salad had perfect seasoning and was also just really yummy. The chicken pieces were decently sized and I could taste the hint of rosemary on them. Very crunchy.

We also ordered a side of hot honey sauce, which we added to the chicken and the cornbread (as recommend by our server) and I did enjoy it! I did think it paired better with the cornbread. The cornbread was also yummy and crumbly. I personally like my cornbread a bit more moist, but the flavor was really nice, and the hot honey helped give it some of that moisture!

Overall, I would 100% come here again! Thinking of bringing some friends to try this place :)“

“Delicious pizza, friendly people! 🙂“

“The chicken on point! I like the cheesling and the gangjeong sauce for my wings. Very pricy for 8 wings but delish! That crunch is what it needs to be 😆🤭 Very flavorful. Yall should get sum! Forgot to take photos before eating them lol Too good to worry about a phone!“

“Good Pizza! I appreciate this place for having reasonable prices so close to the STRIP! And I was able to have it delivered very late in the night!!“

“Good eats and beer selections.“

“Walking in, you may wonder if you'd walked into a bar, but stick around.
We showed up super late, but they still sat us. Food takes about 30ish or so minutes, and like I said, we were late. As in last table served late.

I got the 6 pc fish with greens and Mac. Clean fish. Greens with no pork. The Mac was spot on for what I expected.

My wife had the gumbo, which had everything in it that it should. She got her rice on the side, her choice, by the way.

My son got the 3 pc chicken wing and Mac. He had me strip the wings and ate it all and all of the Mac. This is rare for him being as picky as he is.

We also got a side of yams and grits. I like my grits cooked to a certain consistency, and they nailed it, unlike the soup they serve at Burdells.

Also threw 1 Heineken on to the bill.

Before leaving, we ordered a peach cobbler and banana pudding to go.
Get them both. The cobbler hit every childhood memory on the way down. The pudding My son wanted to have to himself.

We also grabbed the strawberry crunch for my wife's mother's birthday. She loved it. Thank you to the waitress who set us up with this. You were amazing and thank you for having us in that late.

Total bill was between 120-130

We will be going back for breakfast to try the chicken and waffles the waitress told me about. Given how picky and I am how good their food was I'm actually looking forward to it after how much of a letdown so many other places had been.“

“Love the food and the community!!“

“Food was on Point!! The Bar however.....“

“Delicious pizza, friendly people! 🙂“

“Cute spot for a first date. Solid food, great staff and a mind numbing amount of beers on tap. The staff playlists are definitive deep cuts and current favorites.“

“What a fantastic spot in the financial district! We were staying in town for a wedding, and this was such a great spot close to our hotel. Patrick (the owner) and his team were all a 10/10! Can’t wait to return.“

“Came in on Sunday afternoon for some drinks and bites. We got the Wagyu and Chicken sliders. Wagyu sliders were 10/10, it was tender and had so much flavor. We thought that the chicken sliders were good, the chicken was fried well and it was juicy, but we thought it lacked a little flavor. Maybe more seasoning on the chicken or make the aioli a bit more flavorful.

Our drinks are Now You Nosso, Smashski, and Melas Beles (in order clockwise from lychee drink). They were all super refreshing and delicious.

If you want great food/drinks, good music, and friendly neighborhood vibes then definitely check out Nosso!“

“There's some slight confusion because ordering from "Slice of Hollywood" from Eat24, you get pizza from Pizza Nation, but that's no big deal. The food is GOOD. Best wings I've ever had delivered, and the pizza is really good as well. plenty of toppings, and so far I've only had great experiences with them. Great combo price deals too!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (5/5 stars) Pizza Twist is a flavor fusion haven! Amazing Indian-inspired pizzas with vegan, vegetarian, and halal options. The taste is a masterpiece, and the service is exceptional. Highly recommended! 🍕🌶️👌“

“Nice place to watch sports“

“Great spot! Food was on point and the staff is awesome. If you're looking for a great burger and fries option this is the spot. The fries are seasoned well and crispy and the burger is juicy and flavorful. The menu has a lot of options. Hot sandwiches and chicken options...they also have gourmet, specialty waygu burger options. Can't wait to visit the area again to try.more off the menu! Oh.. awesome bar and bartenders too.“

“This establishment is excellent very clean and customer service is amazing specifically an employee named Alex he was very friendly, interactive and informative about the products and helped me decide what pizza was best for me and my liking to purchase“

“I never review anything , I have come to this place multiple times a week for weeks now .. I love their wings and seasoned fries . As a wing lover they are a step above wingstop Buffalo Wild Wings or any wing I have had. I appreciate the great customer service the food is soooooooooooo GOOD puts me in a good mood everytime I eat there.“

“That pizza was 🔥🍕🔥🍕❤️‍🔥💯“

“food was great atmosphere was nice recommend going there“

“Everything is so good here. Freshly made and delicious“

“Yummy Chinese food! Potstickers are made fresh

Vegetarian options: vegetarian options available

Dietary restrictions: vegetarian options available, but it is an asian restaurant so dont expect a whole bunch of options for dietary restrictions like Kosher, vegan, nut free etc

Parking: located on the corner of a street, a couple of parking spots available

Kid-friendliness: kid friendly but a lot of spicy dishes

Wheelchair accessibility: not wheelchair accessible, need to go up stairs“

“first time eating here. great place, great food. Nadir was very attentive and made sure everything was going well“

“Tell me why when I first opened the delivery box of galbi boneless chicken and stabbed what I thought was a French fry with my fork, I literally did a chew double-take and removed the tteokbokki from my mouth because my taste buds were so thrown off from what I was expecting. I really should’ve known better, but I’m accustomed to seeing tteokbokki drenched in a gochujang based sauce, so they deceptively resembled fries. To be fair, from this experience, I learned they taste way better dry and seasoned, but I digress.

Onto the main part of the review…

As I’ve written in a couple other reviews this week, I’m “researching” the best Korean fried chicken spots in San Francisco to determine which to order from for an upcoming Friendsgiving. I looked up a ton of options in the city and narrowed them down to a shortlist of 3 spots, this place included. A few things I examined to create my short list were varieties/flavours of chicken, quantity to price ratio, other customer ratings, images of the chicken, and proximity to my neighborhood or deliverability to my friends’ neighborhood where the Friendsgiving will be hosted.

When I took the first bite of K Soul chicken, I knew I’d found a winner. I’m very particular about KFC having spent the last few years living in LA and Orange County, home to copious dedicated KFC restaurants. K Soul’s chicken tastes the most similar to my favourite spots in SoCal. It has the perfect texture and crunch, the meat is neither dry nor greasy, and the umami flavor is on point. They’ve created a perfectly balanced KFC, and that’s why I’ll be taking this to Friendsgiving.“

“I love this place, but please don’t be so rude at the cashier, all the time asking me anything else, that is it. Work on the service at the register please
Thanks for the food and the people who bring the food on the table they are super nice a love it.“

“I bought the oyster combo with DoorDash and I absolutely loved the deep fried oysters. The fried breading was very tasty and the oysters tasted like they were cooked just right.

I chose potato salad for the side, I liked it, however, I do not know if they make it fresh.

The combo also comes with a Shasta brand soda, but cola and lemon lime are the only offered flavors.

I definitely want to order from here again.“

“muy rica pizza nos encanta“

“Good vibes! Will definitely be back!!“

“Very nice place. Me and my family stopped by and ate inside Service was a 10/10 highly recommend. Vibe and environment a 10/10. Jahwill was such an excellent host and made sure me and my family were comfortable. We ordered almost the whole menu the Agusi soup was delicious, oxtails was nice juicy and tender. The only thing is the goat meat could have been a bit more tender but everything was a great experience. The overall rate 9.5/10 . Also try his cold pressed juices . DELICIOUS!“

“i recommend this platform cause it's the best“

“We had such an amazing experience at Piccolo. Not only is the food fantastic, the wonderful atmosphere and fantastic service that Zabit provided really made this a must do for San Francisco trips in the future. Zabit, thank you for making our experience special and fun - we appreciate you taking such wonderful care of us. ❤️“

“This is real hood chicken, real soul food. Highly recommend the fried chicken and catfish... unbelievably good. FYI, not a sit down restaurant, but plenty of good parks within distance of the restaurant to eat at and take in the sights of oakland“

“The banchan were the highlight of the meal, the stewed potato, seasoned fishcake, and sprouts with seaweed--all delicious and fresh. The mushroom tofu stew was nice, and the galbi tang was good but not my favorite. It was savory, meaty, and salty, but too simple for my taste. The mung bean pancakes were bland, even with dipping sauce. Overall I wished I'd ordered other food--with such good side dishes the bibimbap is probably great. The prices were very high, though to be fair, the most expensive dishes serve multiple people.“
