“In the heart of San Francisco lies a culinary gem, a sanctuary where flavors mingle with defiance, and every bite is a declaration of resistance. This is not just a restaurant; it's a culinary outpost of the Palestinian struggle, a place where food transcends mere sustenance and becomes a weapon of solidarity. At Beit Rima, diners embark on a culinary adventure that eloquently communicates themes of culture, resilience, and the enduring quest for justice. From the moment you enter, you're welcomed into a warm embrace of tradition and heritage. My recent visit was nothing short of revelatory. Guided by the gracious owner, Samir, I embarked on a culinary expedition that left me nourished both in body and spirit. Embarking on a culinary journey rooted in tradition, I savored the classic flavors of lebna and ful beans, emblematic of traditional Arabic breakfast cuisine. The essence of culture and heritage permeated every bite. This experience served as a poignant reminder of the intrinsic link between food and memory, illustrating how nourishment extends beyond mere sustenance. But it was the Chicken Shish Tawook Plate that truly stole the show. Tender, succulent chicken marinated to perfection, served alongside Samir's hand-kneaded bread that was a revelation in itself. And let's not forget "mom's rice," a humble yet deeply flavorful accompaniment that elevated the dish to sublime heights. The garlic sauce was delicious. As I sat, sated and content, I couldn't resist the allure of dessert. The Muhallabia, with its delicate balance of sweetness and freshness, was the perfect finale to an unforgettable meal. The significance of this meal was intensified by the poignant reality of thousands of Palestinians enduring forced starvation due to war on their homeland. Beyond the exquisite flavors and meticulous preparation lies a deeper truth: food is a potent tool of resistance. In a world where injustice runs rampant and oppression knows no bounds, supporting Palestinian businesses like Beit Rima is a tangible act of solidarity. It's a way to denounce America's complicity in the ongoing genocide and stand in solidarity with a people who refuse to be silenced. In every dish, every morsel, I tasted the spirit of resilience, the defiance of a people who refuse to be erased. Free Palestine forever.“

“[Delivery Review] had the mezze platter, halloumi, chicken kebab and kofta. Everything was tasty and nicely packaged ? I love that you can order the mains a la carte - great for mix and match and creating your own dinner spread. Seems to be gluten free as well ?“

“This is one of my favorite comfort food spots when I want Arabic food. There's always tables inside, but when the weather permits the outdoor seats are a great vibe and you can get shisha outside too. Favorite dishes: *Mezza sampler (or vegetarian sampler): the hummus and eggplant are so flavorful. The falafel are fresh, with great texture inside and crispy outside. *Bread: This is free but deserves a callout because it's properly baked and fresh; no thick pita bread. * lamb or chicken skewers: I've had both and they're both good. I think the lamb is a bit more moist. I prefer getting fries over rice *Knafeh: I get this often. It's not really the "best"; they make the khishneh get super crunchy but I wish there was more cheese. However it's still made welll enough. Overall: 5 rating for taste, vibes, price. I come back every ~2 months.“

“Excellent food. The lamb shashlik was delicious. Also the large, varied platter of appetizers. We were there on a Sunday at noon and there were not many others at that time, so there was hardly any noise which was good for me. I will definitely return to try other dishes, or maybe have the lamb again . . . . Highly recommend.“

“I lived in the Middle East and what Mezze and Mooore offers is of the same high standard as the best restaurants in Beirut.“
