Very small and expensive. Not worth the cost for what you get.

Great option for quick glutten free and vegetable forward food. Service was surprisingly great for being an order at the counter resteraunt, and I appreciated that for my dine in order, the food was served on real plates (and my tea in a real glass cup) rather than disposable containers.

Meal is similar to panda express but twice as expensive

This is my go-to spot for ordering lunch when I don’t want to feel like I’ve overdone it all afternoon :) Make your own bowls and the crispy chicken bowl are always great. Also shout out to the staff here for being so accommodating and careful with my baby daughters’s allergies. I called to confirm a few things and have been so impressed by the clean ingredients and care they take in the kitchen.

Location aside, Kitava is awesome. Their bowls are fresh, fast, and healthy. Staff is kind and accommodating.

Awesome restaurant, experienced this one and the Oakland location. Both are great. We’d love to see one in Portland!

Just don’t get the protein bowl with the veggie patty. The veggie bean patty is not good especially with such a consistent texture of hummus, avocado, and overdone sweet potatoes
I recently dined at Kitava in San Francisco’s Mission District, and it was an absolute game-changer! I ordered the BYO bowl with Paprika Chicken and the Farmers Green Bowl, and both were bursting with fresh, vibrant flavors. The chicken was perfectly seasoned with a smoky paprika kick, tender and juicy, while the Farmers Green Bowl was a colorful mix of crisp greens. Every bite felt nourishing yet indulgent, which is hard to pull off! What really sets Kitava apart is their commitment to clean eating—100% free of seed oils, gluten, dairy, and other common allergens, which makes it a haven for anyone with dietary restrictions or just looking for real, wholesome food. The fact that they avoid seed oils entirely is a huge plus, as it’s rare to find a spot that prioritizes such high-quality, health-conscious ingredients without sacrificing taste. The service was friendly and quick, and the casual, clean vibe of the place made it a perfect spot for a feel-good meal. I’m already looking forward to my next visit—Kitava is a must-try gem in the Mission! Five stars all the way

I frequent Kitava for lunch as I work quite close. I always get the power bowl, which has lots of good stuff in it. Brought my girlfriend here before a night out and she was very happy with her plantain bowl. Mission st can be a bit busy, but when you come it, it's a nice chill place. Healthy, decently filling and not horribly expensive. Happy to have it in the area.
