“We travelled from Maryland to experience San Francisco, found this local restaurant within walking distance of our hotel, and decided to give it a try. It was well worth it! The staff was accommodating, attentive and very friendly. The food was exceptional! If you haven’t tried Mediterranean cuisine or love it, this is the place for you!”

“I was a little skeptical at first because the outside and surrounding area are pretty unassuming, but Sofra Grill was a great surprise. The inside is much nicer than I expected, and the food was fresh, flavorful, and delicious. The portions are very generous—we really enjoyed our meal and still had plenty to take home. We also tried the kunafa for dessert, which was really good (we ate it before remembering to take a picture!). Definitely a place we’d come back to.”

“Upon walking into this place, you immediately feel like you've been transported out of San Francisco and into the Mediterranean. The restaurant is beautifully decorated and there's a gorgeous, completely covered outdoor area with plenty of seating. We sat in the outdoor area in the back of the restaurant next to an olive tree, and it was so peaceful. The staff was absolutely amazing, super attentive, and they refilled our pita bread and dips continously. The food was exceptionally good, super flavorful, and very fresh. We will definitely be going back very soon. This is a very special place.”

“One of The best Lebanese restaurant i have been to in my life, sweetest owners, explained everything about how they make the food, the owner wished us well on our journey and work, almost got a family vibe and did not feel like i was eating in a restaurant, staff was excellent and helpful. Cute corner place in a great neighbourhood. I will always cherish my time here”

6 Keeva Indian Kitchen

4.5 Superb 243 Reviews

908 Clement Street, San Francisco · 9.47 miles

• Take-Out

“I had their lamb roganjosh, aloo Gobi, and chicken chettinand. People might say Pakwan is the place to go for good Indian food in the city, but I was thoroughly impressed with what I ate at Keeva. This is not watered down gringofied Indian food. Absolutely loved the lamb roganjosh, the cauliflower and potatoes were very well spiced, and while I personally didn't like the chettinand, I understand the flavor profile and what that dish is. You're missing out on really delicious Indian food if you're not eating here.”

“7 of us went here on Sunday for my son's birthday celebration. His choice. At first we were given a spot too small for all of us, a very small short table for 2 placed next to a table for 4. Luckily the large group seated at the racetrack shaped table left and were were able to move. You order and pay in advance at the counter, they give you a number and bring the food out to you. The 5% SF tax is added and you tip prior to experiencing the quality of service. I still added my usual 20%. The food began coming out quickly, my only concern was that the 2 appetizer plates we ordered arrived after all of the 5 mains we ordered. The flavors and quality of everything were quite good, perhaps other than the falafel, which was very dry. My wife especially loved the branding. It does get busy and folks were lined up waiting to be seated, glad we decided to show up at 5.”

“Amazing hummus and hands down the best falafel I’ve ever had! Perfectly crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. The portions are generous, and one plate could easily feed two people. The downside is the service. The restaurant gets incredibly busy, with long wait times, and you can definitely feel the pressure to leave as soon as you finish eating. I brought a birthday cake to celebrate, but they wouldn’t let us enjoy it there because they were so busy. Also, watch out for the automatic 35% service charge. Considering you order at the counter and take a number, that charge feels excessive, especially given the rushed service. Overall, it’s a cute, charming spot in Cole Valley with genuinely delicious food. Definitely worth visiting for the food and atmostphere, but don’t expect five-star service or a relaxed dining experience.”

“I stopped in to get help with directions, which required internet access to get and use the app. Sara was extraordinarily helpful. While waiting, the food being prepared smelled so good that I was sorry I had just eaten breakfast 2 hours earlier. I was returning a rental car two days later and walked in for lunch. I had a Chicken Shawarma. It was even better than it smelled. I have eaten over 100 shawarmas in SF, and this was the best I ever had.”

“I hope the business owner reads this. Your employee is costing you money. And your order yourself screen outside isn’t helping your business. We’re trying to order a falafel sandwich not a 5 course meal. Keep it simple and your employee should be able to take a simple order at the window with specific instructions.”

17 Reem’s California - Jack London Square

4.6 Superb 21 Reviews

85 Webster Street, Oakland · 12.06 miles

“I tried the new location of Reem’s in Jack London Square after taking the Woodstock water shuttle from Alameda to enjoy some good weather and experience what turned out to be a very tasty lunch. Set up as more of a café with a grab and go system, you can certainly order any of their items and sit at the tables just outside their door. There is no indoor seating. Upon entering, the staff greeted me pleasantly and was happy to describe their most popular items on the menu. Since I was there for lunch, I passed on some of the baked goods, but would return to enjoy one of those with a coffee in the future. I ordered the Pali Cali wrap with sumac-seasoned chicken, the pickled vegetables, and a Damascus lemonade. The wrap was a good size and should suffice for most people’s lunch. Adding in the pickled vegetables provided a nice side with excellent flavors. The lemonade topped off the meal with a not too sweet or not too sour accompaniment. I wish Reem’s good luck in the future and will definitely return here to try some of their other offerings.”

“WOW the food is delicious. I never liked lamb before, but the lamb was to die for, it was so juicy and tender and flavorful - I added it on top of hummus and ate it with their warm pita bread. Also that was the best falafel I've ever had in my life, hands down -crispy and flavorful and NOT DRY. The pickles were amazing too. 10/10 will return.”

(Plus, the owner is such a nice guy, as is everyone that works there!).. all the prices are labeled correctly which is pretty weird to see in most stores these days! I'm just really happy with everything I ever buy there and go there all the time! PS, thank you for always dealing with my kids and me! Still the best tabouli hummus fruits and pita just still the best all the way around! Thank you!”

“I smelled it before I got there no always looking for “the right food cooked by the right people!” I had a bowl with chicken which I could cut with a the plastic spoon 😍 with rice and lentils very flavorful too with the Israel salad all that flavor in one bowl was the best by far! My friend who’s vegan was very satisfied had a falafel bowl which she started eating as we walked down the street! She had smashed it by the time we made to the tables at Union Square. The food delicious the portions huge and the price right! On another note when we arrived they were out of rice and of course they made me some fresh very much appreciated ❤️”
