    Falafel Plate (dissected for two people)
    Johnny S.

    Went here for my first Yelp Event and the missus and I decided to share a Falafel Plate since we are in our #skinnyEra. The store is clean and big, and you can smell it a mile away (we know because we had to park far since parking is a bit abstract). But it is WORTH it. Our slightly cold To-goed meal was still a lot better than most mediterranean places we've been to....the falafel was crispy, looks homemade, and spongy inside. We are definitely going to come back and try the meat plates since those looked juicy af!

    Good spot if you are looking to grab some Mediterranean food. They have expanded to the spot next door so they now have ample seating. I have only gotten to go here so not sure if it is a fast casual style or if you can sit down and order. I did see the waiters bringing out plates to the tables but it seemed like you could order at the register than sit down if you wanted. Staff is friendly and the food is good. The white sauce is good if you are okay with garlic. They must make it in house since it was much stringer than others I have tried. Very good in my opinion. Rice is flavorful and meats are cooked well. Have a good amount of spice on there although maybe too much if you are sensitive to those types of flavors. One of the only spots to serve up a lamb shank which is tender and tastes good with the rice. Also gotta drop some of that extra white sauce on there. Overall great spot of you are looking for Mediterranean in the area.

    Chicken Shawarma w/side salad & pita

    Came here for a quick bite and the time from order when I arrived to pick up was under 5 minutes! Chicken Shawarma- Generous portion of tender chicken, well seasoned over a beutiful prepared rice pilaf and a side salad. Tasty bites and the flavors had heat, spice and very savory. Going back for sure and looking forward to trying the other dishes.

    Reviewing as part of the Yelp Celebration event! I visited on a Saturday afternoon. Parking was full but I managed to find a spot in the residential area. After checking in, my food was ready in about 10 minutes. The manager/owner came outside to personally hand me the bag which was very kind and thoughtful. Overall experience with the staff was very welcoming and friendly! Portions were super generous and I really appreciate that the salad/pickles were packed separately so they don't get warm from the hot foods. Everything was so flavorful and fresh. This could easily be two meals! Sauces were a nice addition as well. I would highly recommend Sofra if you're in the area (or passing by) and need a warm, hearty meal. I am planning to return so I can try some of their other menu items! Big thank you to the Yelp team for arranging this event

    Had the pleasant surprise of experiencing this restaurant through my first Yelp Elite event and I don't usually go for Mediterannean food but the chicken shawarma that I got was really good. It came with a salad, naan bread, and two sauces. The shawarma itself was delicious, I killed that whole thing in one sitting (a lot of rice). The salad wasn't my favorite but to top it all off with the naan bread was really good. I'd recommend this spot for anyone who's craving mediterannean!

    I first discovered Sofra Grill at a Yelp Celebration earlier this year, and I've been looking for an excuse to come back ever since. We ordered takeout this time, and my Chicken Shawarma Plate was outstanding. The chicken was flavorful and generously portioned over perfectly cooked saffron rice. The fresh house salad balanced everything beautifully, the garlic sauce was creamy and addictive, the hot sauce had just the right kick, and that warm, fluffy pita bread was worth the trip all by itself. The Steak Shawarma Plate was for my 20-year-old son...and I was hoping he'd save a tiny piece for our pup. Nope. He guarded that plate like it was priceless. Leia gave him her very best puppy eyes, but he wasn't giving up a single bite. Judging by how fiercely he protected it, I'm guessing the steak shawarma was every bit as good as my chicken. Sofra Grill has officially become a family favorite. Next time, I think Leia deserves her own order.

    My first time trying this place. ERCAN was the absolute best!!! He was so accommodating, kind, respectful, and went above and beyond to execute our order and experience. ERCAN is all about customer service. He always smiles, he even had a wonderful conversation with us when he had time to talk to us, which made us feel more welcome than any restaurant we've ever been too. Honestly, ERCAN is an asset to this restaurant. I am definitely going to come back and request ERCAN to take care of us because he makes us have a wonderful time. He always does his best and goes above and beyond to make sure you enjoy your meal here. The establishment is beautiful and clean well put together absolutely beautiful. When you look inside, it looks elegant. Food portion was absolutely wonderful. You can tell the food here is delicious, light, and real quality ingredients no additives. Just all healthy. I would highly recommend coming here if you're looking for a healthy, delicious elegant spot to eat out with friends or family. Also make sure you request for ERCAN to take care of you. He is absolutely wonderful and the best. Thank you ERCAN for your hard work, dedication, professionalism, and kindness.

    Baba Ganoush
    Arnel L.

    We came here one lazy Sunday afternoon for lunch. We had a Baba Ganoush, the Branzino fillet, and the Kofte plate. The Baba Ganoush was very good. The fresh bread that came with it was amazing. We probably could have just snacked on this pair all day. The Branzino fillet was pretty good. I like that it was a fillet vs a whole fish, so I didn't have to deal with bones. It was a little bland for me though. I added the garlic sauce which gave it more flavor, but I would have liked not to have to do that. Not bad, but could be better. The Kofte plate was also pretty good, but again a little bland for me compared to the Kofte at Mazra or a koobideh at one of favorite Persian spots. Again, not bad but much more flavor when I added the garlic sauce which and hot sauce. Service was excellent. They were attentive and refilled out waters without asking. The unisex bathroom is EXTREMELY clean. A good indication of how they keep their kitchen. Definitely a plus. This is a nice local spot we'll have to come back to so we can try other items. This visit, however, was just okay. Next time I'll have to try the lamb dish and a few others.

    Amazing! Everything from the moment you walk in being greeted, to the service from beginning to the end of your meal. We've been here a good amount of times and the quality of service can't be beat. The owner is almost always around and his presence makes the experience that much better. The conversation is one you won't want to miss. The food is always top tier. Freshly made to order and the plating is always so clean. The service has always been great. They even expanded the restaurant so there's even more space to dine in and to bring your whole group with you. Definitely a south city gem. We will definitely be back for more! Thank you Sofra Grill!

    Sofra Grill is easily one of my favorite restaurants in the area! Food is always fresh & piping hot. I enjoy the balance in the plates, with salad and rice. In my recent visit, I ordered the chicken skewers plate and it was so delicious and flavorful. I was trying to savor every bite! Portions are pretty decent, with enough to take home as leftovers. Service is great, the folks that work there are always super nice and attentive. Seating is limited but can be a short wait when there is no lunch/dinner rush. I usually park at Smart & Final's parking lot and had no issues. There is nearby residential parking as well.

    I love this restauarant! I have ordered from here for delivery and also eaten at the restaurant. The restaurant is tiny with limited seating, about 7 or 8 tables along the right side wall. It could be busy with a wait, so unless you really want to eat there, it is much easier to order delivery. It was raining heavily the last time we came here, which probably increased our chances of getting a table right away. We grabbed the only available table at the time. The waitress was friendly when she took our order. We ordered the Chicken Shawarma plate, Muhammara, and Fattosuh Salad. I love their Muhammara. It comes with pita bread to dip into this delicous roasted pepper dip. It is so easy to just fill up on bread because it's so good! But make sure to save room for other stuff. They give you a huge portion of Chicken Shawarma served over rice. The Fattoush salad comes beautifully plated in a tilted elevated bowl. There's a clean restroom at the back of the restaurant. Unfortunately, parking in the area can be challenging at times.

    This place is definitely a hidden gem! Everything we ordered was amazing and delicious. The staff was very friendly and engaged with conversations with us. Always made sure our waters were filled and constantly checked in on us. The place was a little small but once you start eating you don't even notice it. Will def be coming back here!

    Beyti with that delicious rice
    Iris Y.

    Every time I come to Sofra it hits so good. The service is top notch, the food is excellent and flavorful, and the ambiance is nice, especially after the remodel! Sofra always had a line before so I'm glad they were able to expand, but I'm also so happy that even with more space there is still sometimes a line! It's cool seeing the owner so invested too in his employees and the guests too. This last time I ordered the beyti and of course it was excellent, but anything is delicious with some garlic spread on it! I usually love the salmon wrap too. Yum, yum, yum!

I can't get away from their home made yogurt dishes which goes so well with the fresh bread. It's always a task to not over do it with appetizers because it's always so good. We also had the octopus which was super tender and had that charred taste. We tried the artichoke heart with prawns dish and it was good, but I don't know if I'd order it again (I would probably want to explore more of the menu). I had the Chilean Seabass for an entree and it was rich and full of flavor. We ended the night with some baklava and they gave us a little scoop of ice cream to top off the celebratory dinner. We'll definitely be back!

The atmosphere was stylish, welcoming, and perfect for a relaxed evening out. We shared several Mediterranean bites, and everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented.

First experience: 5/5 stars My wife and I came here for a jazz session in a private room at the back of the restaurant. We did the chef's tasting menu, and the food was fantastic. There was more than enough food for the 2 of ys and the portions were plentiful. Service was superb and the overall experience was great. Second Experience: 2/5 stars I brought my mom here for her 70th birthday because we had such a great experience before. We ended sitting in the main dining room for a party of 7, and we all did the chef tasting menu. This is where things became disappointing: * the amount of food that they brought out wasn't enough for seven people * their language in the menu regarding the corkage fee was unclear on - it says, "Corkage is $35 for the first two 750 ml bottles," which even the waiter clarified it was $35 for 2 bottles. However, when we got the bill, we got charged $35 per each bottle. I brought it up with the waiter and he denied ever saying that, despite the whole table hearing his explicit confirmation that it would be a $35 charge for both. * this is where the experience became negatively memorable - when they brought out the dessert and a birthday celebration, which was a baklava, they did a really tacky thing of taking one of the pieces of the baklava for the table and putting it on a separate plate with a candle on top of it as the birthday treat. This was extremely off putting and comes off as cheap, especially after our meal was $1000+. I felt embarrassed as I had raved about this place to my family. I will no longer recommend this place to friends or family.

It wasn't just the food they say, but the remarkable wine list, which turned the place into a see-and-be-seen spot akin to NYC's Elaine's (RIP). If this isn't quite how you imagine anyplace along SF's Clement Street, think again. Years later it's still packed (on a Friday night) and loud. Service was the sole miscue on my visit with 3 others. We were given menus and water but ignored after that, to a point where we reached out to get some wine and attention. As you can see from the 5-star assessment, no harm-no foul; once wine and food flowed all was forgiven. The menu required some explanation. It's not broken down in any discernible way, requiring the server to explain that all dishes ae meant to be shared and that the first several dishes are dips, then small plates, then larger. In truth, all seemed like small plates to me (or small servings) but if your wallet permits, you'll not be disappointed. There wasn't one thing we shared that we didn't 100% consume nor anything I'd not recommend. Since we sampled almost the entire menu I feel comfortable saying that everything is delicious and attractively presented. We left the alcohol order to the one at our table who'd chosen Kitchen Istanbul and she summoned the sommelier and gave him free reign. He asked what we like (hearty reds) and what we wished to spend (about $75/bottle) and we enjoyed 2 completely unique offerings that we'd not have known to choose for ourselves. He was also tasked with pairing two of the dessert wines with two of the chosen desserts and they were as enjoyable as the wines served with dinner. It's fair to say that the sommelier had fun with our table, stopping by before we left to say how much he'd appreciated the opportunity to choose for us and for us placing our trust in him. Like the rest of the City I was following Sam Smith's food journey during his time here. He never made it to Kitchen Istanbul but if he had, I think he'd have nodded in agreement with the 5-star rating.

I understand restaurants can get busy, and being out of a few menu items happens, but the way things were handled was frustrating. We ordered our food, received appetizers, and then nearly 20 minutes later our server casually came over to tell us they were out of the chicken entrée we had ordered. There was no apology, no empathy, and honestly no sense that she understood how inconvenient that was. By that point it was already late, and at almost 10 PM in San Francisco there weren't many other dining options open nearby, which completely ruined our night. What made it worse was that we were still charged despite the poor experience and lack of proper service recovery. I ended up not tipping because the service felt disorganized and lacking basic professionalism and empathy. To be fair, the owner did come out afterward to apologize while I was waiting for my Uber, and I appreciated that gesture. But overall, this was a terrible experience that could have been handled much better operationally and from a customer service standpoint.

I arrived around 5:45PM and they had a few spots open. They have a good amount of tables, and the interior decor makes the entire spot feel elevated. I placed my order around 6PM and received my food around 6:40PM. I ordered a falafel appetizer and paired it with a Mixed Grill Kebab and a Beyti. The falafel was really crunchy and flavorful, and overall tasted freshly made. The Beyti was a more riskier dish we ordered, as we aren't as familiar with Mediterranean cuisine. It's basically the meat from the Kofte Kebab wrapped in a bread, with seasoned yogurt as dipping sauce. Since we were familiar with the Kofte taste, this dish was a good twist on the flavor and I would definitely recommend it, especially as a shareable plate! The Mixed Grill Kebeb took the show, because how can a chicken breast be so juicy? We ordered this one to taste all this establishment had to offer, and the chicken was arguably better than the lamb. The chicken breast was super juicy and flavorful, but the lamb felt a little under-seasoned and could've used a little bit more salt. Not a big fan of the gamey taste of lamb, but the lamb chop here had very little - to a point where it tasted GOOD. The seasoning they use is magical, and the hints of cumin mask the taste exceptionally well. Did I mention big portions and good service? I love how this place diverges from the small SF portions and gives you a fulfilling meal with leftovers if needed. We are so accustomed to not taking home leftovers when I remember getting leftovers everytime pre covid! Bursa is an amazing place to take the parents, the inlaws, or even visiting friends to experience one of the many pockets of SF's vibrant districts while getting yummy food without paying tech bro prices. I look forward to coming back, but wish I didn't exhaust all my conversation topics before finishing my meal.

Unfortunately, it's not easy to find a place in the U.S. that serves truly good döner, falafel, and Turkish desserts. This place absolutely exceeded our expectations.

    sultan b eating this kebab UP!! it is so yummy. food is 10/10 no matter what you order (except…read moredesserts). service is quick and lines are longer than my dead fried hair. it was pretty affordable (what even is affordable in the bay) but idk because other people paid for my meal since i'm broke! yay! location - pretty easy to find its in like a business plaza thing. they have indoor and outdoor seating but i hate sitting outdoors because the wind blows my hair into the food and then i eat my hair ew food - my group tried the flatbread and dip platter thing as well as the chicken shawarma, falafel, kebab, and lamb. all stunners no suckers. portions not bad the rice is amazing i'm pretty sure they cook it in some sort of stock, it's very aromatic. salad is great, i love chewing on raw green stalks like a cow 10/10 flatbread is okay, a bit doughy and not as puffy/light as i prefer. also on the sweeter side and does not seem to be made fresh to order but i personally don't care. i am here for the protein 7/10 meats were supermazingtacular! doused in flavor, tender, juicy. lamb shawarma does not have that despicable slightly irony lamb taste! that is a win in my book! chicken shawarma is awesome and kebab is very well seasoned. i think everything here is probably drowned in sumac or SOMETHING idk it is so addictive and i ate a lot 10/10 falafel is also good, soft inside, crispy outside, not grainy. great with their slightly average flatbread and hummus 9/10 SPEAKING OF HUMMUS yum!!! super smooth and refreshing. i do like their baba ghanoush more tho. dips are all great! 9/10 we also tried some desserts which...no comment (in a bad way sorry guys). i am not taking away a star because i am a nice funny person but hot damn these were sweet. at the first bite my tastebuds rolled back to diabetes. why are these so sickeningly sweet like they would taste so much better lightly sweetened. or maybe we got the wrong desserts idk...we got the coconut/pomegranate dessert, chocolate/pistachio, burma/pistachio, and the nice guy added a few of the tulumba things (i think?). all of them had amazing flavors that were overpowered by the sugar content. the burma thing was my favorite just because it was the least sweet and i suspected some cardamom which is yum 6/10 service/ambiance - service is great very efficient, lots of seating, cute rainbow umbrellas hanging upside down on the ceiling. what more could you ask for (besides more money) 10/10 anyway worth a visit but if you want dessert just ask them for their less sweet ones. or maybe don't. maybe some people want to inhale sugar and you know what...you do you girliepop!
