Yuca fries and mushroom skewer were delicious. Cauliflower entree was a big portion size but sikil pal was salty and somewhat bland. Pumpkin soup was fine but spicy due to the chili flakes on top. Mocktail was delicious and super refreshing, tasted like a green juice with celery. All vegan menu, was able to get full on all of the gluten free items.

The food was absolutely phenomenal! The flavors, the atmosphere, and the vibe was like no other. I came as a party of 8 and everything was quick. My only critique is that I wish there was more food for the price as the portions were rather small. I will come back the next time I am in the area.

Excellent vegan food, some of the best I've had. Fast service. The oyster mushrooms are tasty
We were very excited to visit aiso, but the overall dining experience was disappointing.
While the salads were solid and well-prepared, the rest of the meal fell short. The mushroom skewers were noticeably over-charred, and the tofu in the pineapple skewers had a stale texture.
The biggest issue was the rigatoni pesto pasta, which was clearly unsalted and bland. When we raised this concern with the server, we were informed that this is the intended preparation, which was frustrating given the each entree costs around $25
An incredibly creative chef. This was genuinely some of the best food I’ve ever tasted. Every dish was a symphony of flavors, beautifully balanced and unforgettable. The food and the mocktails were both exceptional. I recommend this place to absolutely everyone, vegan or not. It’s truly a standout experience.
The service and ambience were also great.

I was absolutely wowed by aíso after having dinner and drinks last night. Everything from the cocktails to the salads and skewers were innovative and delicious, and I cannot stress enough: save room for dessert! The flourless chocolate cake and passion fruit sorbet were absolutely insane, I’ll be dreaming of them until we can go back. 10/10, no notes, a must try whether vegan or not - and the majority of the menu is gluten free as well.
Aiso is perhaps my favorite place in San Francisco. Everything from the atmosphere to the drinks and especially the food is worth a visit. Tonight I had a chance to chat with the owner and witness the dedication to quality service from top to bottom. If you sit there long enough you will hear people talk about their last visit. I've had almost everything on the menu and it's all wonderful! If the oyster skewers are available they're a must.
