“rice pudding, cookies, borek,“

“Last year, during my first visit to San Francisco, I discovered this restaurant and absolutely loved it. Now I’m back in San Francisco for the second time, and on my very first day in town, I knew I had to come back here.

The food is incredibly delicious! I was so excited to start eating that I completely forgot to take a picture of the chicken soup, but I did manage to get photos of the İskender and the dessert. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and just as amazing as I remembered.

If you’re in San Francisco, you should definitely give this place a try—you won’t regret it!“

“I truly loved this place — it’s not just delicious, it has soul. The food is absolutely amazing, and you can feel that everything is made with care and love. A special thank you to the staff — they are incredibly kind, genuine, and attentive, making you feel right at home.

The Turkish desserts are a whole experience on their own — absolutely incredible, and you just want to try everything. And when, after dinner, we were given a complimentary dessert, it was such a pleasant and unexpected gesture — something that truly warms the heart.

This is a place you’ll want to come back to again and again. I sincerely recommend it to everyone ❤️“

“Pàr napja itt vacsoràztunk a csalàdommal!Az ètelek isteni finomak voltak. Csirke gyros tàlat ès a Mix Grill hús tàlat vàlasztottunk, friss volt minden! A Hummust mindenkinek ajànlom, hogy kóstolja meg! Mennyei finom volt! Kedves kiszolgàlàs ès èlő zene is volt! Mindenkinek csak ajànlani tudom ezt a helyet! Visszatèrünk mèg! We had dinner here a couple of days ago with my family! The food was delicious. We chose the Chicken Gyros platter and the Mix Grill meat platter, everything was fresh! I recommend the Hummus to everyone to try! It was heavenly delicious! There was also nice service and live music! I can only recommend this place to everyone! We will be back!“

“Found their yellow truck at Valencia Live and they did not disappoint. The Gyro Salad was perfect. Gyro meat was tender and thickly carved, not cheap and thin like other places. And the portion was generous. Every ingredient in the salad was remarkably fresh and delicious. Red onions were sweet and thin. It was loaded with Persian cukes, toms, shredded carrot; it wasn’t mainly lettuce with a few token veggies thrown in. Great homemade dressing. They are not skimpy here. Came with sliced pepperoncini, 2 tzatziki cups, and a lemon wedge, which makes sense with lamb, but a lot of gyro places overlook it. Ask for a side of hot sauce, it’s good, complex, unique, maybe homemade. And even the pita bread was soft, hot, and fresh. This $16 salad was correctly priced, worth every nickel.“

“Very good Turkish and Mediterranean food in this place. The place is very nice and the atmosphere is perfect. The prices are very reasonable as well. I tried the Adana and kofta kebabs, very good. The gyros are excellent as well. Overall an excellent option close to union square area.“

“As a girl moving to San Francisco, I can confidently say that this restaurant has become my regular spot! When I used to visit my sister who lives in the bay area, we came to this place and instantly fell in love. It felt like a taste of back home with the authentic spices and lively ambience. The food was delicious, extremely fresh and well seasoned. Everything came out piping hot and was clearly made with fresh ingredients. That’s hard to find nowadays. We ordered just about everything popular on the menu and I definitely recommend the sultani… the char on the meat is truly one of a kind. I also recommend the manti. It’s so unique but the tarte yogurt mixed with the tomato sauce just works. The service was also impeccable. Our waiter, Hussein, was so helpful and took great care of us during our stay. We didn’t want to leave! It was such a beautiful stay and I will definitely be returning for the coming years that I will live in SF!“

“great food! period. love it“

“I ordered the Salmon plater it was fresh, the rice was so good and instead of hummus I ordered salad which was also great, and the thin bread omg it was amazing everything was delicious. The price it's right loved it!! I just started working around the area so I had a great experience it clean and smelled clean.“

“Simurg Bakery provides great baklava to the ones missing a professional taste in USA. Go for it!“

“I have been to the Parthenon a couple of times for the chicken souvlaki and the octopus which are my personal favorites but it just became my favorite brunch spot! the platter that comes with everything from pancakes with Nutella to scrambled eggs and feta cheese fullfilled every craving I had for brunch.
More importantly they have mimosas! Zami recommended the grapefruit mimosa and it was delicious and refreshing. Their Greek coffee is amazing and a great way to end the meal.“

“We love Sumac. It is our go-to for healthy comfort food. I especially like the red pepper tomato soup and my husband loves the chicken bone broth soup. He also often orders the red lentil rice bowl. Their half and half bowls are a nice way to customize your order.“
