Absolutely Divine Dining Experience!
My experience at this restaurant was absolutely DIVINE! I visited yesterday for my best friend's birthday, and everything we consumed was delicious. I absolutely loved the look of the place, with its gorgeous murals and vibrant colors, complemented by comfortable seating. Then there was the food! I need to go back asap! The staff was perfectly attentive and so kind. I would 1000000% recommend this restaurant.

Salty Food, Friendly Staff, Won't Return
I visited this restaurant with three other people for dinner. We found the space to be lovely and the staff to be friendly. However, our experience with the food was disappointing. We all agreed that all the food was too salty and generally just 'meh'. Given the options in the neighborhood, we felt there are better restaurants for vegans. We won't be returning.

Wowed by Delicious Food and Friendly Service!
I recently visited this restaurant for the first time and was truly wowed by how delicious the food was! The falafels were perfectly light and crispy, and the chicken shish was well grilled. I also thoroughly enjoyed the flavorful freekeh that accompanied the chicken, which was a new and delightful discovery for me. The server and other staff were incredibly friendly and patient, especially with our indecisiveness about what to order, as everything sounded so good. I am definitely planning on coming back soon to explore more of the menu.

Great Food, Welcoming Atmosphere
My experience at this restaurant was truly wonderful. The food was really good, and the atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming. The staff were genuinely sweet and contributed to the overall welcoming feel of the place. I particularly enjoyed the Side Falafel.

Wants to like it, but food disappoints
I've been to this restaurant several times, and while I really want to like it, the food just isn't very tasty. The unusually high prices are understandable given it's San Francisco, but it's the food that leaves me feeling sad. I strongly prefer other Mediterranean spots.

Disappointing Meal and Atmosphere
My experience at the restaurant was not enjoyable. The meal was too heavy on the salt, and I did not find the environment comforting or welcoming.

Absolutely Delicious Food and Outstanding Options!
My experience at this restaurant was absolutely delicious! I highly recommend trying their grilled chicken and the platter to share, which includes amazing hummus and muhammara. The falafel and vegetarian options were outstanding as well. They also offer a few yummy desserts. The food quality was exceptional, and I was thoroughly impressed with the variety and taste.

Delicious Hummus and Rolled Bites
My experience at the restaurant was quite positive, especially considering I'm not usually a big hummus fan. The hummus was incredibly creamy, light, and delicious. 👌🏻 I also enjoyed the muhammara, though the baba ghanouj wasn't to my personal taste. The Manisf rolled bites were also very good, and I'd definitely recommend trying them.

Tiny Portions, Good Atmosphere
My experience at this restaurant was marked by criminally tiny portion sizes. The $9 soup was about 4oz, and the $17 salad was the size of two decks of playing cards, barely fitting in one hand. This wasn't an exaggeration; the portions were literally minuscule. The service was also bad. However, the restaurant does have pretty ceramics, a nice atmosphere, and the food tasted good. Despite these positives, I'll never return to be ripped off again.

Birthday Dinner Disaster
I came here for my birthday dinner with friends and had a bad experience. Firstly, my friend is vegan and was politely asking if the pita bread was vegan. The waitress was so rudely questioning her how pita bread could be non-vegan instead of just saying yes, showing a really bad attitude. Then, when she came to serve dip, she dropped it by accident, and the whole bowl splattered over me. After that, the whole staff started acting nice to us, but at that point, it was past the point. Overall, the hospitality was bad and the food was just ok.
