    Chicken Salad
    Jade L.

    This marks the fifth and final Souvla location in SF I've been to! When I first moved to the city over two years ago, Souvla was my obsession. I got countless chicken salads from the other four city locations. My friend and I were recently in the Dogpatch area for an art exhibit, so we decided to come here after for dinner because she'd never tried Souvla before. It was a hit! She got the chicken wrap, and I got my usual chicken salad minus the cheese and with olive oil dressing substitute. Consistent as ever, Souvla never misses.

    Had an excellent experience here today! Friendly staff, chill environment, and simple tasty food. Our lunch came out quick. We all enjoyed our selections and the Yogurt after is an absolute must. The simple, tasteful decor makes for a calm place to have a casual meal. This was my first time trying their savory food and I am happy to say I was not disappointed. I see why its has been so popular. This is a easy , healthy choice.

    Tasty, fresh, and always a solid choice! Souvla does Greek food really well -- the meat is flavorful and tender, the salads are fresh, and the sauces bring everything together. Love the casual vibe and the quality ingredients. Great spot for a quick lunch or an easy dinner with friends. Don't skip the Greek fries and frozen Greek yogurt!

    Order at the counter and take a number for dine in. Greek yogurt was tasty and served fast. In terms of personal enjoyment, 1. baklava crumbles 2. wildflower honey 3. olive oil The greek yogurt overall tasted really good. It was slightly tart and very smooth.

    Greek Fries

    I stopped by Souvla yesterday for an order of fries and a lamb salad. Because the restaurant was completely empty on the Tuesday evening, food was prepared quickly. Within two minutes, the order was ready to go -- impressive. While the fries were delicious -- crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, the salad was extremely disappointing. I have never had lamb overcooked to this degree. It was drier than any chicken breast, turkey, or jerky and was almost inedible. It wouldn't surprise me if the cubes of meat had been sitting around of hours in a heating tray, and then overcooked when reheated. As I'm re-reading my review from my first visit, I see that dry proteins is a clear pattern. For that reason, I would avoid both the lamb salad and the chicken salad and only come here for the fries. For a $20 salad, I would expect more.

    I got the lamb salad through delivery. The blend of kale and romaine lettuce with radish and pickled vegetables had great texture and flavor. They gave a good amount of lamb, which was tender and delicious!

    Chicken Salad

    After living in the City for a while, I finally decided to try the hyped Souvla that everyone's raving about. I came here around 6PM and the place was bustling, but we still found a place to spot to sit and enjoy a quick meal. You go in and order at a kiosk with a person, like a coffee shop, before getting a number and seating yourself. You then wait for someone to bring your food over. I ordered a Lamb salad and Chicken salad. The lamb had that gamey flavor if you're looking for it, while the chicken is more tame. Both were pretty good for the price, and my wife and I both felt full afterwards even with the lack of carbs. They give a good amount of meat, and the vegetables tasted very fresh. There were some fruits in the chicken salad which was a nice surprise. Food came out within 10 min, and the overall vibe is like an upscale nick the greek. This establishment is fairly priced and with the smaller menu, makes it pretty easy to pick what you want. I have yet to try their frozen yogurt, but I've heard it's also really good. Interior decor is very pretty, and sunlight gets in pretty well in the afternoon.

    Sweet potato salad, Greek style
    Sonya H.

    Beautiful and cozy outpost of this SF fast casual staple! Souvla has always been a favorite, with its outstanding salads, pitas, and frozen yogurt. My go-to is their vegetarian salad, which is absolutely loaded with tons of fresh greens, cheese, olives, nuts, and roasted white sweet potato. You can also get any salad Greek style and add a solid helping of fries on top for just $1 -- a great choice if you don't want to have an entire side of fries but still want something crispy. The salads are pretty big, so they can often be multiple meals (or one meal and a snack), especially if you get them with fries :). This location is especially fun -- I love how wide and open the space is, especially with their super high ceilings. The overall vibe is almost industrial chic, but they also have this really fun tree encased in glass in the center of their back wall. The team is awesome and super efficient and friendly -- can't wait to come back!

    Smoked Trout Salad

    This is the best salad I've had in a while. The Smoked Trout was more expensive than the other options but worth every dollar. There was a variety in flavors and textures and almost too much trout. I'm likely getting a second tomorrow as it's seasonal and I won't be in the neighborhood until who knows when...

    Greek Frozen Greek Yogurt Four Pack - Baklava & Honey Syrup
    Arti N.

    Honestly the frozen greek yogurt was fire, ild recc the one with baklava topping and it was so good. The option with sour cherry is good but I feel it's not enough flavor and melts the froyo faster. I tried their one vegetarian option for the wraps and tbh it's just a big slice of sweet potato, I don't think u really get ur bang for ur buck with this option but the other choices looked fire. I just wouldn't get the vegetarian entree option coming here. Also service was good and ambiance was nice looking inside!

    I am not sure why they say they spit roast the meats here. I was expecting the pork to be much more gyro like but it had a stewed texture. The lamb also looked stewed. The venue is nice and airy. I would also say the bread for the sandwich was too hard and the frozen yogurt with olive and salt was way too salty. I had to scrape most of the salt off. It's like rock salt

    Greek Fries - Olive Oil, Lemon Juice, Parsley, Mizithra Cheese
    Mike L.

    Between how much I love them and the number of times I've had their food, I'm genuinely surprised this is only the second Souvla I've reviewed. Granted, it kind of makes sense, given how they don't have THAT many locations (five...and counting!), but still! Almost every time I see one, it's almost impossible not to stop in - not when nearly everything I've had has always been so delicious! Whether you're interested in their salads, wraps, lamb, pork, chicken, fries, soup, or frozen Greek yogurt, the menu here is no different than what you'll find at any other Souvla. However, it took just one visit for this one to become my favorite location. Although it's not demonstrably larger than their spots in Hayes Valley and NoPa, they always seem to have seats available and there's never a line. Plus, it's so much easier to find parking in the neighborhood (I've never had to circle around). Perhaps that's also why the vibes here are far more relaxed and chill! -- VANDE ROSE FARMS PORK SHOULDER SALAD - Minted Greek Yogurt, Cherry Tomato, Cucumber, Pickled Red Onion, Feta Cheese...$16 Not only my favorite dish here, but one of my favorite DISHES anywhere (not just salads!). Honestly, this is so good - the pork is juicy and well seasoned, the dressing is delicious, and the greens are always super fresh. SO DELICIOUS! -- VANDE ROSE FARMS PORK SHOULDER PITA SANDWICH - Minted Greek Yogurt, Cherry Tomato, Cucumber, Pickled Red Onion, Feta Cheese...$15 This is one of my favorite pitas around, but, somewhat surprisingly, I actually like the salad version better (same for the rest, too). While the combination of the pork, yogurt, and veggies tastes just as awesome, it feels like some of the juices are lost to the pita. That said, I wouldn't say no to getting this, either! -- GREEK FRIES - Olive Oil, Lemon Juice, Parsley, Mizithra Cheese...$5 I don't always get this, but when I do, it's always a good decision! The fries are crispy and never oily/greasy while the mizithra cheese and lemon juice add a lot of flavor. They also have dipping sauces for $1 (the Harissa-spiked and "Granch" are great), but they aren't necessary either. -- THOMAS FARMS LAMB LEG SALAD - Harissa-Spiked Yogurt, Cucumber, Radish, Pickled Red Onion, Feta Cheese...$17 In the highly unlikely event I don't want pork, this is my go-to back up. As tasty and moist as the lamb was, the most impressive thing about it was how it's not at all gamey. Plus, I liked how well it meshed with the Harissa-spiked yogurt - yum! -- AVGOLEMONO SOUP - Traditional Egg-Lemon Soup with Chicken & Rice...$7 On a cold night in SF, this is the perfect way to warm you up! The portion size is pretty fair for the money and there's a good amount of chicken and rice. One thing to note is that the lemon in this is pretty strong, which I liked, but I can see why some folks wouldn't like this as much as I do. Besides how much I love this particular location and how consistent the food has been, the staff here is just as awesome. The workers have all been really nice and the kitchen gets orders out ridiculously fast, regardless of you're dining in or grabbing your orders to-go. Despite how it may not be the closest Souvla to me, I'm more than happy to drive a little further for all of the benefits and delicious food it has to offer, whether it's for their pitas, salads, or their frozen Greek yogurt!

    Greek frozen yogurt, olive oil, sea salt
    Carol W.

    Scene: 2 p.m. on a Thursday, a sunny day in Dogpatch I saw there is a Souvla. Wow, is that new? I saw a line at the entrance, and asked a man if it were new. He wasn't sure, but remarked that the photo on the wall is the same as the one in Hayes Valley. The interior exhibits industrial elegance, with beautiful light fixtures. There were a few groups finishing lunch. After a partly disappointing lunch nearby, I wanted a treat. What better than their Greek yogurt? Yes, Greek yogurt is ubiquitous in grocery stores, with many brands. It is healthy for you so maybe not interesting to some. It is no longer a novelty. However, when it first appeared on the menu at Souvla, I was impressed. Its smoothness with the addition of olive oil and sea salt is great. What a good idea to combine these flavors! Now we have olive oil ice cream, but when Souvla first opened, its frozen Greek yogurt was (and still is) a great concept. I will return for one of my favorite desserts. Stop by when you're in the area!

    This is probably the only place where the sandwiches don't taste like the store's essence…read more I mean, don't get me wrong, a store's essence from any given deli/liquor store definitely adds unique character to the sandwich and sometimes I want that in a sandwich. But when you want a sandwich that only tastes like its ingredients, Irving Subs is the spot. Their Dutch crunch is famous for being fresh and actually crunchy. Their lettuce is shredded but fresh and crispy. The salt content is just enough to bring out the flavors. And the overall composition of their sandwiches are very well proportioned. You're not getting skimped, but you're also not biting into a mouthful of a packet of deli meat. They definitely know what they are doing. Service is good and ambiance is a small humble shop on the corner of 12th Ave.

Double pastrami, horseradish, havarti, lettuce, tomatoes, red onions, pickles, and pepperoncini. A lot going on, and it all came together. The horseradish and havarti gave it enough personality to stand apart from a standard pastrami sandwich, and the garlicky mayo tied everything together. The one casualty of DoorDash was sogginess by the time it arrived. That's not a knock on the sandwich, it's just the reality of ordering something like this for delivery. At $14.50 it's a hearty sandwich at a fair price. I'd recommend it, but eat in.
