Reem's California - Reviews

I rarely write reviews, but this experience was exceptional. The Arab food was the best I've had outside of my grandmother's home, with everything tasting incredibly authentic and delicious. The atmosphere was fantastic, complemented by great music. They also offer incredible drinks and souvenirs for purchase. If it were possible, I would give more than 5 stars.

Whenever I feel nostalgic and miss Kuwait, I go to Reem's Mission. The atmosphere and music are great. I’ve dined in and ordered take out, and they always deliver. My go-to is the Falafel Wrap, and The Pali Cali is delicious. I ordered the Cheese Man'oushe with and without cheese, and I love both. The Chocolate Chip Halawa Cookie is to die for – definitely don't skip it! The Cardamom Cold Brew Coffee offers a classic Arabic coffee with a new twist. This place consistently delivers a great experience.

I can’t describe how much I love the food here and what this place represents ❤️ Thank you, Chef Reem!

My experience at this cozy Mediterranean spot in San Francisco’s Mission District was wonderful. The restaurant beautifully blends rustic charm with vibrant flavors. I enjoyed their delicious mezze, perfectly cooked wood-fired kebabs, and fresh seafood. The local wines and craft cocktails were excellent pairings. The warm service and lively energy made it a fantastic choice for a casual night out, and I can see why it's a favorite for celebrations.

My experience at this restaurant was mostly positive, with the food and atmosphere being solid. However, I found the pricing for the small watermelon and feta salad to be excessive, feeling like day time theft. Despite this, the overall experience was good.

My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! I absolutely love this place and consider it the best for its mezze platter in SF. The wraps are incredibly delicious. I'm so fond of their Arab Bread and Zaatar Manoushe that I always keep them in my freezer. The restaurant is super kid-friendly, providing high chairs and sippy cups. The food is a perfect 5/5, and the service is also a solid 5/5. The atmosphere is rated 5/5. While finding parking can be somewhat difficult, the overall experience is highly positive.

My experience at this restaurant was truly the best! Reem and her entire team are amazing chefs and community members. They are always supporting the community and bringing folks together over the most delicious food and drink 🫶🏼🙏🏼.

I stumbled upon this spot and was seriously impressed. The Arabic food was incredible; it was rich, flavorful, and clearly made with care. What really stood out was the California twist. They used fresh ingredients, added creative touches, and nothing felt heavy or overdone. Every dish had its own personality, and everything I tried was just so good. You can tell they really know what they’re doing in the kitchen!

My experience at the restaurant was largely positive, especially regarding the food. I absolutely loved the cheese and zaatar manoushe. It was so good that my Lebanese friend gave it the stamp of approval as well! However, I do have one request: please bring back the lahm bi ajeen. It's a dish I truly miss and hope to see on the menu again.

My experience at this restaurant was marked by a significant issue with their ingredients. I specifically inquired about seed oils, as I avoid them, and was assured they only use olive oil. However, this turned out to be untrue. They are untrustworthy, and this reflects poorly on their overall business practices. I've attached evidence of their premade items, which clearly show they are not using olive oil.
