I love this place. Lots a good food for the price; I love the chewy garlic noodles. The owner (I think) refilled my tea and encouraged me to take my time. All the staff were very nice. Will be coming here for lunch in the future!!

We are visiting SF and stopped here during lunch after visiting the park. They were so friendly and welcoming and the food was so good we had the imperial rolls with chicken garlic noodles it was a very generous portion. We also enjoyed some shrimp rolls and had iced Viet coffee. All were amazing, our bellies were full and happy. What a great stop for lunch. Thank you!

Perilla is a solid spot for flavorful and tasty food with generous portions. The garlic noodles with your choice of protein are a great deal at around $14, especially considering San Francisco prices. The service is very friendly and welcoming, which makes the dining experience even better.

The only minor drawback is the restroom setup—you have to walk through the kitchen to get there. It’s not ideal, but it seems more like a space limitation of the building...
