Razan's is SO GOOD. I get a different menu item every time and it has never disappointed. I love that the burritos taste so fresh and aren't greasy, like many other places. The options are all interesting and fantastic. The staff is all friendly and I met the owner there a couple months ago, and he was so great. Support this business, especially during COVID!! It's a good one. read more

Razan's Organic Kitchen - Garden Burrito - Mediterranean Near Me - Berkeley, California

My husband and I were visiting the Bay Area. We were on the way to a birthday party, but had some time to kill. We had just exited a BART station and began searching for organic food. We were delighted to find Razan's close by. Their menu has a huge variety, and offers both vegan and non-vegan options. My husband and I ordered our respective dishes (I had the Jordanian Wrap, he had the grilled beef burrito), grabbed a kombucha from the cooler, and sat in the cafe. Our food was ready quickly and we devoured it with gusto. One of the owners came by to chat with us. The service was just as fabulous as the food. We would highly recommend Razan's to anyone in the area, whether dropping in for a bite or looking for some good carry out. read more

Wonderful little lunch nook near the western edge of the campus. Yelp says this place is Mexican but if anything it seems Middle Eastern to me. Think burritos meet hummus and shawarma. They offer vegan, vegetarian, and carnivorean options include the best roast chicken we've had in a while. On the slightly expensive side for an informal lunch but well worth it in terms of quality of food, friendliness, and amount of food. The salsa bar is easy to miss at the front of he restaurant. I devoured my shawarma wanting a bit more spice when my partner discovered where the hot stuff was. A more prominent sign would be helpful. read more

Fresh vegetarian and vegan options. Enjoyed my Egyptian wrap and pea soup. There is filtered water available. Customer Service could improve a bit. For instance, let the customer know about the filtered water and plate size. I ordered the wrap and soup and the portion was too much for one person. I bought a bottle of water before seeing a small spout on the side of the counter for water because a regular customer filled their cup. I don't like wasting food but I couldn't eat it all either. Maybe offer a cup verses a bowl option? The food was delicious though so I would definitely recommend. read more

When venturing thru Berkeley I always find the time to stop by Razan's. I don't know what about wraps and burrito-like foods that get me coming back for more but it does! And to be vegetarian/vegan friendly?! Count me in! The shop itself is small with tables and chairs along the wall and limited seating upstairs. I don't suggest eating in if it's busy because it's super cramped. The upstairs is unorganized with kitchen gear stores along the wall. The bathroom is upstairs too and isn't friendly too tall people or people bigger in stature. At 5'5" my knees touched the door when I sat on the toilet. LOL. My suggestion is to grab something on the go but, if you find a place to sit why not?! Everything is freshly made and super flavorful. I haven't found a thing that I haven't liked. The hot sauces that they have out is a must with anything that you order in my opinion. Staff are welcoming and happy to answer questions and willing to wait when I need the time to look at their extensive menu to decide what I want to fill my belly with. Pssst they have a descriptive menu online if you want to get in and out without holding up the line. :) read more

Razan's Organic Kitchen - Egyptian Wrap: Falafel, hummus, tomato, cucumber, lettuce and tahini. - Mediterranean Near Me - Berkeley, California

Mediterranean Plate comes with one small falafel, and flavorless hummus (with a pool of oil on top). The ride and lentils were pretty good and half of the plate. The other half was lettuce. Not worth the wait and money (costs around $13). The pita was whole wheat and pretty gross. The only good thing was the single falafel and rice. Everything else was meh read more

Love their Jordanian wrap! It's so tasty and healthy Their spicy sauce is out of the world good read more

I liken this spot to a mediterranean deli. Tucked away around the corner from Shattuck, you have a few guys manning the grill/prepping the food and the lady at the register holding it down. They serve up organic, all natural, healthy eats with loads of options for vegetarians and vegans, but meat kebab, chicken, schawarma and even some salmon for those looking for more protein. Not in the mood for a wrap or burrito, and not looking for all that rice found in the plates, I opted for the salad with falafel (priced at $.75 each, I asked for 4) and some avocado (more of a guac with a $2 add). The salad was huge and tasty for the $12. Bright, fresh greens, a dash of hummus and the vegetable fixin's like cukes and tomatoes, it was hard not to love. I really appreciate this spot's efforts to provide healthy eating options. Steamed chicken and rice, sauteed vegetables and tofu and so forth. Not easy items to find when on the hunt for a quick lunch There are juices available and a few smoothie options. I would have loved to see more, but I get it, the place is super small. Space is limited, think a few spots outside and in. For lunchtime on a Monday, the spot was packed, but the food still came out fairly quickly. read more

Customer service is a HUGE part of what I figure into a restaurant I like to go to... That being said, when we ordered they let us stand around didnt say take a seat or well call you and didnt take payment till the food was ready so I'm standing in the way for about 10 minutes. Super awkward!!! Plus when you order 2 dishes one for you and one for your father and the place is NOT bussy and they somehow forget to make your order and you literally have to remind them... NOT what I'm looking for from a place I like to eat! I WILL NOT BE COMING BACK EVER AGAIN!!! food was good but prices and service were not what I'm looking for!!! read more

Razan's Organic sells pricey mediterranean/mexican eats. small kitchen, even smaller dining area (3 tables?) eats: baby burrito(4.95) -with cheese, black beans, organic rice, taste ok -small size -fresh tasting. brew: dripped pour, french roast ("san francisco bay" -from costco?) 2.50 -tasted strong, harsh, acidic leftovers: -waited awhile for coffee while someone went next door to get some coffee grounds. -food/coffee tasted average read more

This is the best! All Organic and great delicious choices. I've been coming here for years and love it.

Walked over from Shattuck Cinemas on a drizzly Wednesday. We were in shock after seeing The Big Short. Had a great sesame chicken wrap, my partner had the Egyptian wrap. We felt much better after eating! Delicious. Fresh. Friendly people, no facade. Very generous size, well balanced, flavor/crunch/smell. My sense is this is not a fluke - these fine people provide very authentic and yummy food at a fair price. Highly recommended. read more

Problem 1: like most restaurants, large and small, they have a hard time prioritizing which orders should come first: Uber Eats/Grub Hub and in-person, dine-in/take-out customers (customers who are in-store waiting for their food). Possibly why I waited a long time for my wrap. Problem 2: Uber Eats orders means they are now overextended and overworked. More orders in shorter timeframe with no increase in staff means margin of error is high. Was this why my burrito had hardly any spinach and like 2 walnuts? I paid $13+ for a tortilla filled with rice and beans. This is known as false advertising and means you are cheating and disrespecting your customers. Other possibilities: 1 the cost of food is so high that they stuffed my spinach wrap with rice? Solution: don't advertise it as a greens wrap if you don't have the greens to fill it, as unfortunate as that is. 2. Due to the drought a lot of food is unavailable so they were forced to stuff my spinach wrap with rice. 3. They don't want to buy/can't afford walnuts Solutions: same as above Suggestions: hire more employees, make better use of your upstairs space, use the upstairs to cook and downstairs for seating & stop false advertising/cheating Questions: where do the tips go? Who gets the tips? Are the tips taxed? Can I get a refund for my wrap that had hardly any spinach? Or at least another wrap? Can you confirm your food is organic? If so, how? read more

I love the family that runs this place. All the meet is organic and free range. Wonderful experience every time.

I am very impressed by the great degree of flavor in their food and their use of fresh, organic ingredients. Cons are that because they use organic, menu items are on the expensive side, considering that a wrap is $8. However, I come here a lot meaning that I enjoy it. -Egyptian Wrap: traditional wrap with falafels and hummus. But it has extremely strong flavors and falafels are decently soft on the inside and crispy on the outside -Veggie Lentil Soup: my favorite. It has extremely tasty and light soup with a lot of vegetables and lentils. And it comes with warm pita bread. I was amazed to be full from it and felt healthy afterward because it was so light as well -Small salmon wrap: I forgot its exact name but the salmon was grilled perfectly and was very moist. read more

The Mediterranean food here is so good. We had a wrap and falafel plate. The falafels are so crunchy and hot, perfect! The pita was fresh and you can see them prepping food for later in the day. We loved the food. read more

I am literally writing this review as I eat, that's how good this place is. I'm eating the best burrito I've ever had -- the wild salmon burrito. The salmon is cooked perfectly and has so much flavor. You can taste the quality of each ingredient -- nothing is overcooked or stale. PLUS everything is organic and grass fed. I'll be making trips to Berkeley just for this place read more

I went today, on a whim. I've lived here for nine months and never checked the place out. I'm not a vegan, not even a vegetarian, and I get nervous about "healthy" eateries since they often just don't compete, flavor-wise, with other places. I just decided to go native, ordered a mushroom melt, stayed vegetarian for the day. It was surprisingly hearty, full of rice and beans and just enough cheese that it was flavorful but still felt healthy. Was a little bummed that they only had full-sugar organic sodas, but hey, I knew what I had signed up for. My only complaints: The space is too small, and the prices too large. I mean, I get it, organic produce costs more, it makes sense... but it's still hard for me to justify spending that much more for lunch than I would spend elsewhere, on a post-doc's stipend... at least this year. read more

This is a great lunch spot and my co-workers and I always walk pass it. My co-worker and I finally made the jump and decided to eat here. Knowing that this was the sister restaurant to Arabica, we knew we would like the food. I ordered the Egyptian wrap with baba ghanouj. I liked that the wrap was grilled and not just rolled. After biting into my wrap, all the flavors melded into one. It was delicious. The baba ghanouj added the extra flavor to the falafels that made it savory. I almost forgot that I was eating vegetarian meal. I did not miss any meat this day. Full and satisfied, we both walked back to the office discussing when our next visit will be. read more

We carried out dinner for four and loved it! Baba ganoush appetizer was out of this world, followed by salmon and chicken dinners (both served with vegetables and rice). Mmm delicious baklava. Good portions except for pita bread. Will ask for more next time. Can't wait to eat Razan's organic food again! read more

Delicious, very fresh wild salmon plate with rice and veggies and salad. So so good! And they have an extensive salsa bar. read more

Got the chicken plate.Super delicious flavors; even the brown rice is tender, flavorful, and has a tiny bit of oil or something so it's not dry. The chicken and veggies and also well-seasoned and moist and the chicken is browned beautifully! read more

I work down the block from here and have been eating here 2-4 times a week for the past 8 months. That either means this restaurant is great or I live in a bubble. Recommendations: Lebanese wrap Super Nachos Breakfast burrito Chicken Shwarma The one problem with this place is that none of their wrap names make sense. There's a wrap that has hummus, cucumbers, and falafel and it's called an Egyptian wrap. Now I'm not sure if Egyptians eat this on a daily basis, but Egypt definitely isn't the first thing that comes into my head when I am eating a falafel ball. read more

I met up here with some friends, one of which is vegan. This was one of the few places that had enough vegan options that I could take her to. While 3/4 of us were omnivores, we were all satisfied with the food we got there. My roommate had a chicken quesadilla and the chicken was so juicy! He was happy even though he's usually an extremely picky eater. I got a shawarma wrap and it was pretty good. Not the best thing I've ever had, but pretty tasty and fresh. The other two were also satisfied with their wraps or burritos. My vegan friend was impressed, which is all I wanted for her. While this is not a place I would normally go to because I don't care that much about vegan/vegetarian options and not extremely concerned with "organic" foods (I assume all the fruits and vegetables in Berkeley are high quality anyway) but this place has something for everyone. Even us meat eaters can find something here. I generally like places where I can watch the food be prepared. This place definitely uses fresh ingredients and good quality meats. This place is tiny but there's a cozy spot upstairs with three more tables. It's intimate. read more

I've been meaning to try this place for some time, intrigued by it's self-proclaimed healthiness and the burritos (my favorite) on their menu. I ended up getting the Lebanese Wrap, though, which is a whole wheat wrap with hummus, lentil rice, tabouleh, baba ghanoush, tahini and sumac for $8.95. The standout of the wrap was the rice mixture: I don't know my grains so well and am not sure what lentils are, but the main carb portion of the wrap tasted like rice and beans and were very fragrant. I was absolutely starving when I came into Razan's so I finished off the whole wrap no problemo--I think their portion sizes would appropriate for one square meal even if I weren't famished, which is kind of refreshing among so many restaurants that overwhelm with quantity over quality. I'd say that it's a bit overpriced. I want to believe that you are getting what you pay for in the healthy-tasting and yummy aspects of their food, but I definitely could not make Razan's a go-to spot for me for the safety of my wallet. I do want to try their salmon burrito still, though it may take a special situation for me to feel like shelling out ~$12 for a meal. I would come again, but not super often. read more

"MMphh-hrmnhsshh-delishinnmm" That's me trying to tell you how ridiculously good this place this, but I'm too busy chewing. Honestly, I can't write anymore right now -- I'm seriously salivating at the thought of their menu and I'm afraid my computer keyboard is going to get liquid damage. read more

My go to is the Jordanian Wrap. It is delicious and filling. The staff is so friendly. The place feels like home. The food is always fresh organic and always made to order! This is one of my go to spots in Berkeley. read more

This is still the best comfort food in town. Everything is hearty and flavorful. Please come here and keep it going! With the reduction of YMCA hours and the closing of the movie theatres downtown Berkeley draws fewer people. Let's hear it for the independent establishments! read more

Doordash review! We all wanted something light for dinner and Razan's it was! I order the chicken kebab plate and it was delicious. It came with chicken, a green salad, hummus and roasted vegetables. The chicken was really flavorful and cooked just right. I was a bit surprised by the hummus because it was SO good. I would say it's another add to our Doordash restaurants. read more

As good as it was 8 years ago when I first tried their wraps and burritos. Highly recommended: salmon plate (plate of good wholeness in salmon and steamed veggies) and their falafel sandwiches. Has a crunchy vibe and simple demeanor, but well worth it. Friendly cooks / staff. The second floor seating area has a ceiling height of about 5'11"! read more

Wow, this place is great - huge selection of wraps, burritos, and rice plates. Here's what we tried: * Jordanian Wrap: really tasty - has hummus, falafel, tahini sauce, sauteed onions, tomato, cauliflower * Chicken Plate: HUGE & great flavor, enough for 1.5-2 meals for a "normal" eater. a good amount of vegetables, black beans, chicken, and rice. I can't wait to come back and try more delicious items. read more

Nice sticks out as by far the most appropriate descriptor. Their wraps feel healthy, simple, and have a pleasant amount of flavor from the hummus, meat, and grilled veggies (I've tried the Jerusalem and the Salmon Shish Kebab wraps). Nothing over the top, and not too large to be more than a normal-sized meal. Their salsas add some to the wrap, but most feel more suited to their Mexican-themed offerings. After paying with card, they have emailed me a number of deals through square for $2-5 off. These definitely put it in a much more appealing regime for price/quality in Berkeley! read more

Small space with impressive variety in its menu, great food, and great service. Keep in mind that, for the fast-casual feel of the place, food is a little on the expensive end $11-$12+. However, the food really is excellent, and the menu is varied enough to appease pretty much any palate. The menu ranges from traditional Mediterranean-style wraps and plates to some pretty interesting fusion dishes. My go-to is the Tofu Shish Kebab Wrap, and it never disappoints. The staff are also extremely friendly and enthusiastic, and are a pleasure to interact with. Definitely don't forget the sauces that they keep on the side! They make their own unique sauces (e.g Sriracha mixed with yogurt) that taste great and really work well with the food. read more
