We booked a table for 3 at 9 pm. We came early , got seated at the bar, no problem. However we waited for our table as we specifically came in for a dine in experience. Didn’t get the best service to try to accommodate us or an ETA for a table, just that they got overbooked on Open table and Resy. Offered a glass of champagne (I don’t drink that night). Place had a decent vibe but they should manage their booking better so someone’s dining experience is up to par for what they portray! The bar tenders were nice, but wish the hosts were also the same.

UPDATE: just to add some color, after they offered champagne I specifically mentioned I don’t drink alcohol that night. It was only the second time around when my partner mentioned they could offer something like a mocktail, they said they could (would’ve been nicer to be accommodating). When we were leaving they mentioned then they could comp the appetizers we got but that was after we were visibly upset and headed out, appreciate the gesture, but sadly the kindness came too late for my experience to be good :(

My wife and her mother are Persian and we all loved absolutely everything! The vibe and the food are all top notch! You should absolutely go, like now.

Movida is a must-visit! The drinks are fresh and flavorful, and the menu is an exciting fusion of Persian and Mexican cuisine that works perfectly. Every dish we tried was bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. The space has such a cool, vibrant vibe, and the staff make you feel genuinely welcomed. An unforgettable dining experience—we’ll definitely be back for more!

My partner and I came on a Friday night without a reservation. It was quite busy but we were offered a seat at the bar. Our service at the bar was phenomenal and as an added bonus we got to watch the bartenders mix drinks all evening. Our drinks were tasty and the food was next level. The fusion concept works really well. For the two of us we got four dishes and it was filling but not overwhelming.

Came here for dinner & drinks before the Giants game. The como la flor drink is amazing. The Barg & chicken skewers are a must! This place is a must every time I come to SF!

Came here for some drinks with friends and the vibes were amazing! Great food and good music. It’s really close to oracle park so we came back after the game. Would highly recommend this place!

The atmosphere and service are great. Food is overpriced for its location, portion and quality. There are many better alternatives in the area for the same price range. Drinks are delicious but WATERED DOWN A LOT. My husband also got upset stomach that night after having dinner there. It’s a place I would not revisit.
