Though the presentation was on point, the chicken sandwich missed the mark, dry, under-seasoned, and lacking the bold flavor we hoped for. We came craving a classic, elevated twist on Nick the Greek but left underwhelmed. Even the garlic sauce lacked punch. Ironically, the standout was the fries… and that says something.

We stopped to get the Greek frozen yogurt with baklava and honey, which was excellent! But all of the food we saw being delivered to tables looked incredibly fresh and delicious. We're going to go back. Indoor and outdoor seating, super friendly staff.
A modern Greek gem with soul and simplicity
Souvla is one of those places that makes you appreciate how beautifully uncomplicated food can be when done right. Tucked into the heart of San Francisco, this modern Greek eatery delivers fresh, flavorful, and well-balanced dishes in a relaxed and friendly setting.
The menu is straightforward, but every item feels intentional. I had the lamb wrap, which was tender, juicy, and perfectly complemented by crunchy radish, fresh greens, and a sprinkle of cheese — all wrapped in soft, warm pita. It was one of those dishes that looks modest but leaves you fully satisfied.
The accompanying salad was crisp and bright, with a lovely balance of herbs, feta, and light vinaigrette. The space itself is casual but inviting, with plenty of sunlight and a clean design that feels distinctly Californian with Mediterranean heart.
What surprised me most was dessert — the Greek frozen yogurt is a must-try. I had one topped with sour cherry syrup, and it was incredible: tangy, creamy, and refreshing. My friend went for the honey drizzle, and it was equally delicious.
Their wine list is thoughtfully curated, and a glass of white paired perfectly with the meal. Service was fast, kind, and helpful without hovering — exactly what you want for a casual night out or relaxed lunch.
Souvla strikes a rare balance: fast-casual ease with full-bodied flavor and care. A San Francisco favorite I’ll absolutely be returning to.

Didn’t attention online orders and dashers
I am a regular customer and typically love Souvla for fast, healthish Greek. But sometimes I notice the chicken salad is so oily, like it was today…and so what was supposed to be a light lunch felt like a brick in my stomach all day.
Souvla - Please ease up on the oil 🙏 and on a positive note thanks for the awesome service from your staff today and always.
