Great lunch option in the mission. Chicken salad: 4/5. Really good. Nice flavors and fresh ingredients. And a pretty reasonable size. I would have this again. read more

We ordered Souvla to go, and the food was so voluptuous that it could not be contained in the to go bag. Its deep & roasted chicken scent provoked me; its wetness soaked the bag as it could not wait to be eaten. I've never been edged this hard before. We made the voyage to Dolores Park. Freedom from the tension alas as we spread our meal wide. We opened the containers to give the food a well needed release: steam came out, aroma reached our noses, and in the white light, our food appeared: - The Roasted Whole Chicken made its entrance all oiled up in olive oil. I squirted the roasted lemon all over my chicken. It was so juicy that it would not stop squirting. The chicken was glistening in its bath of sensuality. It slid into my mouth with no friction. - My Trout Salad asked to be smothered in the creamy Greek Goddess salad dressing. Layers upon layers of green beauty all stuck together in the creaminess. I was tempted to grab it with my bare hands to appreciate it raw, without any utensils between us. Unfortunately, we put up social constructs that hold us back from true expression. My friends and I had peaked. SF could not get any better. Scene: Sunny day in Dolores Park, perfect weather, Souvla, picnic in the shade, peak SF experience Main Cast: Roasted whole chicken - $33 Side of Greek yogurt sauce - $2 Smoked Trout Salad - $23 Side cast: Veg Salad - $15 (friend ate it) Extras: 3 humans read more

I came here curious to try their yogurt! I hear good things about it, but I was always skeptical on how good greek yogurt could really taste. We came inside and ordered. Inside is spacious with lots of free seating. I loved the cleanliness and greek-ish atmosphere. Service was also very quick and we got our yogurt immediately. The yogurt was delicious! It was tart and slightly sweet. Super refreshing and generous serving too! I would definitely come back if I was in the area. read more

Love coming to Souvla for their fresh, quick Mediterranean bowls and fries. Their mission location is super quick with their service. Ingredients are fresh. You order and find a table, and they bring the food out to you. We got their chicken salad, smoked trout salad, fries, and a few wraps. The meat was a bit dry this time but the flavor of the salad is nice altogether with the fruit as well. Love their Greek yogurt dessert. Portions are good and inside is clean/comfortable. read more

I haven't been to Souvla in a long time. But it never disappoints. I been to the other locations in the city and the meal is always fresh and tasty. The clean your table for faster turnaround and they take care of the dirty dishes as I couldn't find a garbage can to throw my sandwich wrapper away. My companions and I came right on time on Sunday afternoon, the start of the lunch crowd around 1pm because the line line was forming to purchase, get a number and look for a table. It was a nice and sunny day in the Mission District. I couldn't decide if I wanted sandwich or salad. I went with the lamb which contained THOMAS FARMS LAMB LEG Harissa-Spiked Yogurt, Cucumber, Radish, Pickled Red Onion, Feta Cheese and one friend ordered the salad version of THOMAS FARMS LAMB LEG that had Harissa-Spiked Yogurt, Cucumber, Radish, Pickled Red Onion, Feta Cheese. This was perfect fulfilling and yummy in my tummy. Love to come here if I was in the area. One companion has strict dietary restrictions and it makes it had to find a place but this place is perfect. Healthy eating and it tastes good! And she was happy with her meal. They clean the tables pretty fast turn around and we lucky got a table. Good quality food and I had to get the frozen Greek Yogurt with honeycomb which brought back memories of Athens. Again another home run place to eat at. I never had a bad experience l. read more

Souvla - Chicken salad with fries! - Greek Near Me - San Francisco, California

I was on a work trip in the area and grabbing lunch with some colleagues. This is an order-at-the-counter, seat-yourself kind of place. I got the lamb sandwich, which was $16 and came wrapped with harissa-spiked yogurt, cucumber, radish, pickled red onion, and feta. The lamb itself was SO tender. The flavor combination was perfect and each ingredient was really well balanced. So delicious. 9/10. It's also a great portion size--I almost couldn't finish it. I probably would've saved half if I didn't have to head straight back to work after lunch. It was my colleague's birthday, and they were kind enough to let us light candles and sing happy birthday, which was really nice. I also just loved the overall vibe of the restaurant. It's very nicely decorated with lots of natural light. I will be coming back to try the other menu items. I would definitely recommend this place! read more

Was craving their chicken salad so I came here 3 days in a row. Satiating post workout meal full of protein and veggies mixed in a deliciously creamy dressing. I ordered for pick up through DoorDash and they had everything ready by the time I get there. I get lucky with parking so no issues there although the area can be a bit hectic. read more

When the weather is hot, it's ice cream time. So I popped into Souvla to get a frozen Greek yogurt. It's been a while since I visited Souvla, so it was nice to see 4 different toppings for the Greek yogurt. I ordered the Cretan wildflower honey $6. The thick sweet honey complemented the creamy Greek yogurt well and it was delicious. Would like to return and try their food sometime. read more

Came in for a quick takeout order and walked out impressed. Ellie at the front was warm, helpful, and made the whole experience feel personal, not transactional. Small thing, but it sets the tone. The yogurt is genuinely special. Not the supermarket version anyone can get, this one has the kind of depth and tang that makes you slow down. The honey and baklava together are a small luxury, and the combination works better than either one on its own. The chicken is the move. I got mine to go and it still held up beautifully by the time I sat down with it. Tender, well seasoned, the kind of dish that makes you want to come back for the dine in experience. The space itself is modern and inviting, the kind of place you'd happily bring someone for a casual dinner or grab something on the way home. Easy 5 stars. read more

I ordered ahead online, my order was ready almost 10 mins ahead of schedule and they did update the DoorDash notification to let me know it was ready. Black sheep sandwich: Black Sheep plant-based lamb with harissa-spiked yogurt, cucumber, radish, pickled red onion, and feta cheese wrapped in warm, fluffy pita bread. The vegan lamb was pretty good, juicy and salty. I liked the feta and pickled onion too. Lamb salad: I tried only a little bit of it. The salad has a lot of kale and lettuce. I actually like the plant based lamb better even if it definitely tasted different (not quite equaling lamb), I just wish it didn't cost $2 more. They had an outdoor table with utensils provided at the front, which is close to the sidewalk. One of the staff came out to check on us and offer us water even though we were only eating takeout outdoors, so I thought that was considerate of them. read more

Ordered the free bird chicken salad and frozen greek yogurt with baklava crumbles. Although the salad tastes great with all the assortment of toppings (pickled red onion, oranges, pea shoots and cheese), they skimp out on the chicken. Not the most filling salad especially when hungry. The frozen greek yogurt is tart and gets it sweetness from the baklava + honey drizzle. The baklava crumbles arent crispy/flaky/crunchy. They're clusters that are soft. Few tables inside and outside (self seating). They provide a number so that they can bring your order to you whether its dine in or takeout. read more

Been to this place more than a handful of times. It's alright. It's healthy, it's a high quality chain. I eat here when I'm on a diet, so don't expect to get full, but lots of fiber and protein so not bad. Food tastes good. It's honestly not my type of food, but I'll eat it to be healthy. read more

solid souvla location! first time trying the pork and lamb salads with friends, as well as the fries. all three items were amazing! the fries were especially incredible -- great flavor and crunch. i personally ordered two of my go-to items, the chicken sandwich and lemon chicken soup. the chicken sandwich was really good as usual, but the lemon chicken soup was much saltier than usual and had not as much chicken as i was expecting! not sure if it was the bottom of a batch or just an off day, but this was a bit disappointing to me. either way, souvla is such an establishment that i would still come back. service is friendly and ambiance is what you'd expect at a fast casual spot in the city. pay at the front and seat yourself, they bring out the food to you. would recommend!! read more

I haven't tried any of their food items yet, so this review is just about their frozen Greek yogurt, but it's amazing. I especially love the one with honey. There's something about the sweet, cold honey paired with the tangy, tart yogurt that just works perfectly. The texture is incredibly smooth, making each bite a delight. It's the perfect little dessert after a heavy meal, the tartness cuts through the richness and helps wake me up from a food coma. Definitely a go-to spot if you're looking for a refreshing, satisfying treat. read more

Souvla's chicken is outstanding. I'll buy it to help with meal prep for the week. The yogurt is otherworldly. Greek yogurt is more tart than sweet. That's important to know going in. As long as your expectations are set, you're likely to love it. My favorites are with honey or cherry. It's a refreshing piece of Europe tucked away on a small storefront in the city. Plus, the staff is always pleasant and efficient. read more

Mmmm...first time here and we ordered the lamb sandwich, trout sandwich and frozen greek yogurt with the super chunky baklava crumbles. I am not typically a fan of Greek food but everything was delicious. The lamb was tense and succulent with flavor and my partner liked his trout. The tart yogurt with the sweet baklava crumbles was a nice finish. Will be back to try their chicken next time. read more

Yummy - this was my first time having the frozen yogurt from Souvla. I am glad I finally tried it. The honey paired so well with the cold yogurt. The baklava also went well, but the chunks could be smaller. Try it out if you want to have a quick cold dessert! read more

I thought this place was going to be quality, but was surprised that it was very average. lamb Shwarma was very dry with little burnt slivers of lamb, almost no sauce, and some pickled onion. They definitely did not freshly cut the meat from the spit. I also paid $2 for a side of yogurt sauce, unfortunately that didn't help. The skimpy side salad I got had 1 olive and pickled onions with no dressing. Everything was plain and flavorless. I prefer Nick the Greek for 1/3 the price. read more

I live down the street and always see this place has a line so I decided to check it out. I got the chicken option as a salad and it was extremely refreshing. I would just say they skimp a lot on the meat. For dessert I got the honey and baklava yogurt which was tart but sweet, probably would try a different flavor next time! Overall it's a cute place just also not a unique concept so very similar to cava, nick the Greek, etc. read more

The chicken salad here is one of my favorite local salads. It's not a typical Greek salad at all. It has chicken, kale, fennel, orange slices, pea shoots, mizithra cheese, and Granch dressing (their version of ranch dressing). It's like a spiffied up Greek salad a la ultra-healthy San Francisco style. I mean, have you ever had any other Greek salad with *kale*?! The one menu item that I did not like was their pork sandwich -- it was dry (1 star off). The pita bread was good, but the pork was not. You can actually get any of their meats in either a salad or pita sandwich form. Be sure to end your meal with a frozen Greek yogurt. It is real Greek yogurt -- none of that commercial Greek yogurt thickened with corn starch. It tastes like pure Greek yogurt. I like the sour cherry and olive oil toppings, but would suggest holding the salt for the olive oil topping. Needless to say, salted Greek yogurt would not taste like a sweet dessert ending! read more

My friend and I came here basically for the frozen Greek yogurt. YUM. I could probably eat an entire cup by myself. We tried the baklava crumbles and honey syrup topping.

If I am close to a souvla, I will always come by and get the Greek yogurt with baklava crumbles and honey syrup. It is my favorite dessert ever since being introduced to it during Covid and I'll never forget how it can always make my day better. My friends got the Greek yogurt with cherry syrup and they enjoyed it as well. I am biased for the baklava crumbles tho Something new I learned is that souvla has dog toys!! I got my dog a Greek yogurt squeaky toy to match my obsession for the dessert. It's a bit pricey at $20, but I'd say it's priceless if I can share souvla with my dog. But it gets even better, if you ask, souvla has little tiny cups for dogs too! While only service dogs are allowed inside, there is seating outside for you to bring your pet and get them a little treat while you eat as well! read more

Great for some, not for me. It's a bummer because they clearly care about quality ingredients and have a certain finesse for cooking, but it's become increasingly less accommodating for vegans. What happened to the vegan lamb??? That stuff was incredible, worth going out of your way for. Now, there isn't a single plant based protein, and you're left laying astronomical prices for a pile of lettuce. It's a thoughtfully curated restaurant and the people are nice, but none of that justifies the current menu. read more

Stopped here for dessert because I really wanted to try their greek yogurt. The inside is nicely decorated and brightly lit. I was surprised to see there weren't too many tables. I ordered at the counter and my dessert was ready really fast. I got the greek yogurt with baklava. I loved the consistency of the yogurt, but it was very tart. I thought it was going to be a little sweeter. The baklava was really good, i do wish that it was mixed into the yogurt instead of just on the top and bottom. Overall, it was really good and I'd come back! read more

I like the ideas of a fast and quick bite. Not too expensive for the neighbourhood it is. The place gives the food a contemporary feel. Mostly a self service place. I ordered via a screen with an individual. She was very knowledgeable about the menu. Plenty of water. Got the chicken sandwich and the fries with the granch sauce. Sauce was tasty and nice. Overall good. A little greasy but that's okay. The mandarin orange was a unique hit; gives it a modern fresh taste. Not a big fan of the cheese used. The seating is spacious. Plenty of public transport options to get here and bike racks are seldomly nearby. read more

I've been eyeing this place for a while and decided to come in for a quick lunch! The place was bright, clean, and had plenty of seating both inside and outside! The menu is clear cut and the worker up front was friendly and informative since it was our first time. We ordered the lamb sandwich, chicken sandwich, and potatoes to share. The sandwiches were good but I did find that a couple bites were drier than others. The hot sauce at the table was an in between of Tabasco and tapitio and went well on the sandwiches. The potatoes were the highlight, they were silky and had so much flavor within each bite. I'd come back and try the salads instead next time! We were too full to try their Greek yogurt but definitely will be back for it. read more

With my PHD in eating french fries, I approve of these Greek fries ($5)! Perfectly crispy, lightly salted, soft on the inside, warms the soul. Paired with their garlic greek yogurt dip (+$1).. chefs kiss. I think the garlic Greek yogurt adds such a unique taste to each bite. The garlic is not too overpowering. It's very subtle. I also heard many great things about their Lamb Salad ($17) and since I was in the area, I could not pass on it. The lamb was surprising very flavorful and super tender. It definitely took my by surprise. I also had no idea what else was in the salad besides lettuce and lamb. I was not expecting kale to be in it but surprising I LIKED IT?? I'm still in denial that kale could taste so good lol. The only thing I didn't like were the radishes. Wish they were pickled like the onions. Pro tip: you can ask them to make it Greek style for an extra $1 and they will throw in some fries on the salad. Trust me. Game changer. Overall, 4/5. Prices are a bit on the higher side but you're paying for quality. read more
