    I have mixed feelings about this spot and it's probably because I've had inconsistent experiences. What I always enjoy is the outdoor seating and nicely lit indoor space. The hummus is the best I've ever had and the mezze platter is a great share. The meat can be overcooked or dry in the entrees though.

    This place looks inviting, yummy, has that awesome college campus vibe and professional all at the same time. I see med students, health professionals and kids. They are very welcoming. The staff is super friendly. The food was excellent. And there's foosball table, sports memorabilia, seat cushions, great lighting and lots of plants. There's so much to say. But all I can say is I recommend this place. Come and give 'em a try! That solid A is smokin!!!!

    Chicken kabob

    The hummus was good we got that with two chicken kabobs. Everything was fresh and clean good seating and food came out quickly at a decent speed considering the rush before a concert across the street.

    Chicken Gyro Plate
    Emiko T.

    Always curious about this place, my partner is receiving treatment at UCSF and I decided to try it out today. Food is delicious, I had the chicken gyro plate with the dressing on the side. Loved it. The place can get busy around lunch time, but there is ample seating inside and outside. Plenty of natural light inside. Service is quick, if you are eating in they gave you a number and bring out your food to your table.

    Hummus

    We were in the area and saw this place had good reviews, therefore we gave it a try. The food was delicious. We order beef and lamb gyros and hummus with pita bread and it did not disappoint. It took us back to when we were in Greece. The service was great and fast. The ambiance was welcoming perfect for families.

    Lamb and Beef Gyros Wrap

    First visit to SF Kebab, food was really fresh, service friendly and prompt with orders. Had a little rush while I was there which was a great sign. Food was really good and gets the vote for best Falafel. Access to napkins recommended be place where you have access prior to seating as their was some debris left from the previous dinners on the table but nothing to wipe them off if you need to do it yourself... just a suggestion. The restaurant has a nice well lite, wood accents and colored pillows give it a nice cozy ambiance.

    Salmon Shish Kebab Plate

    SF Kebab Stopped by while I was in the area and craving something quick but not too heavy--SF Kebab hit the spot. I went with the Salmon Shish Kebab Plate (23.95), it was well-seasoned and grilled just right: tender inside with a nice char on the outside. The portion was generous, with a good amount of rice and a fresh side salad to balance it out. Service was fast and no-fuss, which I appreciated since I was just passing through. A reliable, satisfying meal

    Kofta Wrap with not much beef
    Robert C.

    My coworkers and I stopped by for lunch to give this spot a try. Pretty busy place with indoor and outdoor seating. Friendly cashier at the counter. I'm not a fan of lamb so I got the kofta wrap. My friends got the kofta plate and the chicken kebab plate. We all remarked that the prices are on the higher side. Food came out to our outdoor table. My wrap was mostly lettuce and a smaller serving of the beef. Wasn't really impressed. My friend's plates had more meat, especially the chicken entree. The accompanying rice wasn't great, per my coworker. Both plates came with a stale roll vs flatbread. I wanted to like this place but wasn't really impressed.

    Yummy hummus

    The other day, we tried a Mediterranean restaurant across the street from Chase Center. Love my Mediterranean food! I ordered Hummus w/ Pita Bread. It was so good. I loved the way they made theirs. I also ordered the Plate with Beef Shish Kebab, Pilaf & Salad. Dan was so nice to talk to in the beginning & he gave us Baklava on the house! Shout out to him! The prices are not bad at all, considering being in San Francisco, on top of that, across the street from Chase Center. The place is nice and spacious. Nice outside seat, could be for a nice day! I look forward to coming here again!

    Alexanders Favorite

    Whats better than a Sunny Day in San Francisco & superb middle eastern food!? The service was superb to say the least & the venue was super warm w/outdoor seating & a lil foosball table while customer waited for their food. I order Alexanders Favorite(pictured) & it has become my favorite. The marinated meat & hand made bread soak in the juax of the beef warmed my heart & soul to a dish that served a homely sort of experience w/the red tomato sauce. Not to mention the house yogurt which elevated & balanced the dish to completeness. We also ordered the Mezze platter. The baba ganoush was the best ive ever had & couldn't stop eating. My dining partner also really enjoyed the hummus. A passing customer looked at our table & iterated; " you musta like it you cleaned up your plate". Lol All an all a lovely experience & cant wait to come back again

    The ambiance and location are seven stars. This place is perfect. What is it, even? It's like one of those restaurants in those sci-fi movies, like the third and fourth seasons of Westworld, although I hated both those seasons with so much passion, it's not even funny. The food is pretty good. It's pretty expensive too. I don't mean it's ridiculously expensive in a ridiculous way, but for what you get, it just doesn't feel too valuable. But did I mention the physical surroundings? Inside and out. There are tactile, visual, and botanical delights in which to delight. Even the space around and outside is inviting, although strange. What's with all the dirt? Why isn't there a path? Are you supposed to eat outside on those benches? I'm sure the answer to all these questions is UCSF, as in they own the land, so they do whatever they want or don't want with it. But UCSF's indecision is your gain, because this place is kray to the kray. My falafel whatever was good. The people who work here are nice. There are many of them. I love all the tile and glass and cushions and ceramics. Is there a water station? I believe there is, and if my belief is correct, I love it! Don't let this place intimidate you, although it intimated me away from trying it for years. Learn from my mistakes! That's the best way to learn.

    Greek Salad Bowl, add lamb kebab
    Corinne C.

    Came by on a weekday before Thanksgiving while my husband was at an appt at UCSF. Convenient location right across from the Chase Center. Beautiful interior, airy, bright. Only downside was it was a chilly day and I sat next to one of the side doors so there was a big gust of cold air each time someone went in or out! I had the Greek salad with a lamb kebab added. It was SO GOOD. The greens were fresh and crisp, the feta was salty and perfect (no bland cheap feta here), cucumber/tomato/onion were cut up into perfect bite size pieces. The balsamic vinaigrette was herby and delicious. The kebab had a great grilled taste, was well seasoned, and grilled perfectly tender. My only regret is I forgot to ask for their hot sauce, which is spicy and a bit fermenty and delicious. I know the hot sauce is good because before I left, I ordered my husband the same salad to go. In the to go bag, they kindly packed a container of the hot sauce, which went perfectly with the meat. Will definitely return here for a tasty meal next time I need to go to ucsf!

There was complimentary bread which was insanely good and fluffy and warm plus tahini and an onion tomato sauce I think along with radishes and olives. We are not olive ppl sadly but I tried one and it was pretty okay. The service was great and all the servers were super attentive and accommodating. The Stuffed falafel was so good and huge 1 is enough for 2 people. The mosabaha was very refreshing and so good. The meat combo was good overall and everything was very herbally spiced, I wasn't impressed by the lamb tho but the kebab, hummus, and chicken were great! I haven't had Mousakhan before so not sure how it should taste but to me it was sweet and savory with really well cooked chicken. I honestly felt pretty healthy overall cause I was eating hella veggies and everything tasted so fresh. The kunafa was good we got it crispy and was yummy imo but was a lil oily (I think this is normal tho). Arab food isn't really spicy but it is spiced and very herbal which I felt in the food here, I appreciate that chili sauce is provided for the spice lovers. Overall, would highly recommend. It was about $100ish for everything and they recently increased their prices but tbh the portion sizes are huge and I feel like it is so worth it we had hella leftovers. If we had 4 ppl instead of 2 it would've been perfect portions for everyone.

When we arrived at around 7:30 pm, there were tables available. It's a comfortable cafe-like restaurant with mural paintings on the wall. Service was friendly and helpful. Unfortunately, the food wasn't as good as the ambiance and waitstaff. ***OUR PICKS*** BEEF SHAWERMA ENTREE ~ the beef was overly salted, saffron rice was ok, hummus was really thick, like peanut butter. My guy ordered this and thought it was average. 3/5 LAMB SHISH KEBAB WRAP ~ this was my dish. I ate one half of the wrap and it only held two cubes of lamb meat. The lettuce and tomatoes made the wrap bland. The meat was seasoned, but everything was plain, so it needed more seasoning. Honestly, this was missing flavor! I'll have to add something to it when I eat the rest of this wrap at home. 2.5/5 HALF ROASTED CHICKEN AND RICE ~ Our friend ordered this dish. It needed more sumac. This tasted like plain roasted chicken. Maybe it needs more seasoning while marinating. It wasn't dry, so that's a relief. Rice was ok and it wasn't dry or soggy. 3.5 We've been spoiled and have had better food in San Francisco and the Bay Area. Nothing stood out for any of us. Prices are a bit high for what you get. Sadly, probably won't be back.

I booked our table about a month in advance, which turned out to be the right move because the restaurant was bustling during the lunch hour. To start, we ordered four small plates to share among our party of four: meatballs, saganaki, spanakotiropita, and a pair of dips (melitzanosolata and favasalata) with pita. Everything was excellent, and our spread was inclusive of a wide variety of flavors and textures: salty, creamy, acidic, sweet, crunchy. The meatballs and the dips are definitely a must-order and are ideal for sharing. The spanakotiropita were larger and more filling than expected, so if I were to order those again, I'd dial it back and stick with small plates rather than a full-sized entree. The saganaki was a showstopper; it is served sizzling and crackling on a cast iron dish and had a nice salty flavor that allowed the cheese to be served on its own. For my main dish, I ordered the braised goat - which is not something I'd typically order because goat meat is usually tough - but I was intrigued how it was prepared as a stew. The dish almost reminded me of a Moroccan tagine - the goat was braised to peak tenderness and bathed in a slightly fruity and well-spiced sauce; dotted with pieces of melted feta; and served on top of a bed of baked orzo, which was served fresh-from-the oven in a mini cast iron dish. I was so full after our meal that I had to walk it off for a few blocks, but I cannot wait for our next special occasion so we can come back and celebrate with another feast at Kokkari Estiatorio.

Yes, it's a somewhat expensive dining experience but you are paying for top notch service and great quality food. I am not talking about these cheap midnight specials in Las Vegas.

You can still cannot go wrong as every dish was great experience and great execution. Love the melted cheeses in appetizer and custard in dessert with pistachio ice cream!

The service apparently called out sick. Let's start with the good news: the food was genuinely delicious. Everything tasted fresh and thoughtfully prepared. The mint lemonade was bright and refreshing. The chicken skewers were flavorful and perfectly cooked (though surprisingly small). The halumi salad with eggplant was a generous portion. Now for the "Mooore" part. I was hoping the restaurant's name was also a mission statement. However, we could have used more attentive service. More follow-through. More toilet paper... Unfortunately, once we were seated, we were essentially released into the wild. Ordering is done by scanning a QR code, which is perfectly fine in theory. In practice, it felt like sending requests into the void. A drink I ordered never appeared. Nobody checked on the table, so I had to get up and walk to the counter to ask about it. Later, I had to make another trip to remind them we had ordered dessert. Then another trip when we wanted a to-go box. Apparently, the evening's theme was "interactive dining," where the guests perform most of the customer service duties themselves. Tips are forced when you first order online - no refunds on that. The bathroom offered its own adventure. The trash bin was overflowing with dirty paper towels, and there was little to no toilet paper available. As the daughter of a health inspector, knowing that staff use the same facility, I would have given this a poor hygiene grade. What made the experience frustrating was that the food was good enough to make you want to come back. But when your guests spend half the meal looking for someone to help them, it takes away from what could have been a 'more' pleasant evening.

    We decided to have a birthday dinner here at 7 pm on a weekday evening for 6, due to everyone's…read moreschedules. Bursa's dining area was comfortable with bright lighting and dark blue walls. The service was friendly and welcoming even when our party came at different times. The restaurant wasn't busy given it was a Monday evening, so you would think it would go smoothly. *** OUR PICKS *** COMBO APPETIZER PLATTER ~ hummus, baba ghanouj, haydari, ezme, dolmas, merimek, falafel ~ parts of the platter were cold while the falafel was warm, but they topped it off with a sauce that didn't keep the falafel crispy, instead it softened it. I think the sauce should have been on the side. The rest of the dish was good. 4/5 LAMB KEBAB PLATE ~ this was my dish. I touched my skewers thinking they were going to be hot, but it was surprisingly cold. I'm not sure why skewers would be cold when the food should be hot right off the grill. The lamb was cooked medium rare as I requested, though there was little to no seasoning. So it was kind of gamey and tasteless 3/5 RACK OF LAMB PLATE ~ my partner chose this dish. The lamb was also very light in seasoning. The pistachio rice was interesting and nutty. Asparagus was good. 3.5/5 MIXED GRILL PLATE ~ our friend enjoyed this dish. Maybe a mixed grill is the way to go and some meats cooked and seasoned better than others. 4/5 BEEF KEBAB PLATE ~ the beef was also room temperature and lightly seasoned. 3.5/5 SALMON ~ I tried some of this and it was decent. 4/5 BAKLAVA & CHOCOLATE MOUSSE CAKE ~ Nice birthday surprise and a sweet way to end the meal. Baklava wasn't as crispy or flaky as some I've had, but the honey-pistachio nuts were good. Chocolate mousse cake was decadent and moist. 4/5 Beautiful presentation on the plating of our food, though the timing for the food wasn't quite right as a few plates were served room temperature and not hot. However, the surprise desserts were a nice touch in helping us celebrate a birthday!
