    I'm not too familiar with Mediterranean food and this was such a great intro. We arrived as a party of 2 on a Saturday afternoon and were able to be seated instantly. There was a steady stream of customers dining in and ordering to go the entire time we were there but overall, not too busy. Ordered the chicken shish and the lamb kebab and loved every bite. The chicken plate came with a generous portion of food and the lamb was so tender and fell off the bone. Lamb is one of my favorite proteins and this was so well done- not too gamey as it can often be. There was a garlicky sauce on the chicken plate that was so addicting. Wish I could've tried more items like the hanger steak or the baba ganoush but we were just too full. Next time! Also it's located right off the muni exit so super convenient to get to and from

    I visited Beit Rima on a Saturday afternoon and the restaurant was packed. They have both indoor and outdoor seating, and the process is to find a table first, then order at the counter and grab a number. Since we had our dogs with us, it took about 15 to 20 minutes to snag an outdoor spot. It was a pretty warm day and there was not much shade outside, so keep that in mind if you are bringing pets. If you have any food allergies, they have a separate allergy menu that you can ask for at the counter. It is very helpful for identifying things like gluten-free or dairy-free options. The housemade lemonades were also very refreshing and perfect for the warm weather. The service took a little while because they were so busy, but the food was worth it. I really enjoyed the chicken shish tawook plate and the shakshuka.

    I came here on a Friday evening right before closing. Thankfully, the server was kind enough to still serve us. I appreciated that because some places would have turned us away. The restaurant has a nice vibe for a small Arabic spot. It was more on the casual side, but welcoming. We started with the halloumi, which was good but a bit on the salty side. For my main dish, I ordered the musakhan since it's known as a national Palestinian dish. The chicken was tender and flavorful from the unique spices. Even the plating looked beautiful! I'm pretty picky with chicken dishes, so it didn't end up being especially memorable for me. I've heard great things about their mezze plate, so I'd like to come back and try that next time. It could I didn't order the best dishes since the restaurant was on a time crunch.

    Baked Halloumi

    Amazing food! The branzino was definitely the standout, since it was crispy but perfectly cooked and so flavorful, but everything was delicious. Mezze platter had a lot of flavor and went very well with the Pita. The halloumi was so tasty we had to get 2 orders! Lamb was a little more tomato-ey for my liking, but still was delicious. White wine paired very well. Service was great, staff was very friendly and the vibes inside are super cute, great spot for a celebration dinner. Will definitely be back.

    The other night, we felt like middle eastern fare, so we stopped by Beit Rima for dinner. It was a weekday evening at around 6:30, so naturally it was crowded, but we managed to snag one of the last indoor tables. The restaurant is modern, warmly lit, yet small and cozy, holding roughly a dozen tables depending on the party size. Outside, they have another dozen or so tables. The outdoor dining really helps accommodate on those busy nights! So waiting for a table isn't too bad at all. Once you grab a table, you stand in line to order and pay for your food. Then you take a number and sit down. ***OUR PICKS*** CHICKEN SHISH TAWOOK PLATE ~ Yogurt marinated chicken, charred onions/red peppers, hummus, toum (garlic sauce), mom's rice, pita bread. They give you a healthy serving of very tender chicken on 3 skewers, 3 pieces of pita bread, pickled radish, hummus, and mom's rice, which tasted like jasmine rice? It's usually basmati rice where the grain is longer and not sticky. The rice was sticky yet it had a hard center in some grains so maybe it was steamed and not boiled? The texture and taste of the rice was disappointing whether it was basmati or jasmine. However, I enjoyed the plentiful chicken and how moist and delicious it was. Hummus was good and pita bread was warm and soft, perfect for dipping. Though I did not see toum on my plate, but asked if we could get some on the side, which they graciously gave us. Maybe it was mixed in there and I missed it. 4/5 BEEF KABOB PLATE ~ spiced kabobs, grilled tomatoes, tahina (tahini - sesame paste), mom's rice, hummus, pita. My guy thought the meat was hard on the outside. He was wondering if the meat was grilled or deep fried having a crunchy exterior. Though the meat inside the kabob was soft. What a contrast! It had the texture of a tater tot. We were expecting the meat to be on a skewer, but it looked like sausage links. The rice was the same sticky rice. Sadly, we would rather have basmati. He thought the food was ok, but he's had better. 3/5 I bumped the rating up a 1/2 star for quick service and nice cafe ambiance. It's a great spot to gather with friends, though it can get a little loud inside. Outside would have been quieter and probably easier to have a conversation.

    Had dinner here last week and was very satisfied. Beit Rima has been on my list for a while so I'm glad I finally got to try it. Not sure what took me so long! Lol The mezze sampler was awesome. I loved each and every dip it came with + the house made pickles. We also ordered the hanger steak and chicken which were both equally delicious. Definitely will be coming back to try more!

    Mezze plate. Don't sleep on the pickled veggies.

    Beit Rima has officially ruined me for all other Mediterranean food. I.am.ruined. We ordered the chicken shish, shakshuka, mezze plate, and potatoes, and every single dish made me pause mid-conversation to just stare at my fork and make sure I relished this meal because this place is 2,488 miles from my home. The chicken shish was impossibly tender and flavorful with a crispy char on each piece. It sat upon a bed of rice with lightly crisped onion slices, which are the supporting actor of the dish. The shakshuka was rich and comforting in the way only something made with actual care can be. The egg was perfectly oozy and the tomatoes were rich with flavor. And the mezze plate is an absolute masterclass. Each component was distinct, intentional, and better than the last, but we definitely have to pay homage to the bread because it was the perfect vessel for everything. But the potatoes. I don't know what they did to those potatoes. I don't know if there was sorcery involved. All I know is they were crispy, perfectly seasoned, and deeply addictive. We finished them in a way that suggested poor impulse control but excellent judgment. Service was equally outstanding; warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming without hovering. The whole experience felt effortless, which is usually the result of people working very hard behind the scenes. Beit Rima isn't just a great neighborhood spot, it's the kind of place that makes you immediately plan your return visit before you've even paid the bill. Already booking my next trip from Ohio to San Francisco and a visit to Beit Rima is on the agenda!

    Beef Kabob Plate

    I've often passed by this restaurant on the N Muni Stop, and this is the first time I was able to enjoy a weekend dinner with my friends here. At around 5:30PM when it started becoming crowded, the outside tables became open for seating, and space heaters placed outside made it not too cold. Although we sat outside, we still went inside to order and got number cards for our orer. Shakshuka: This tomato heavy dish with an egg in the middle was rich and comforting since the spiced tomato sauce was hearty and not overwhelming. The eggs were also perfectly cooked and well seasoned. Beef Kebab Plate: This was well-seasoned and tender, with the right amount of char from the grill. Both this and chicken plate we ordered came with sauce and rice that complemented the dishes. Chicken Shish Tawook Plate: This was my personal favorite, as the chicken on the skewers were seasoned perfectly, juicy, and flavorful. Portions were generous for the price, and I would recommend this spot if you're craving some Middle Eastern flavors!

    Cool location (right by a Muni stop) and great outdoor seating. This restaurant itself is super cute and charming. We liked the limited variety of dishes on the menu. The mezze sampler was a good move for our group of 6. The pita is soft, hummus is smooth and delicious, and falafel is so flavorful and just moist enough! The yogurt chicken was my favorite (very flavorful and tender). The lamb shank and beef kabob plates were well-cooked, but lacked flavor for us. The hanger steak was overcooked, but still had good flavor and components. Overall, this is still a great place to come for a nice brunch/lunch with friends & family! Definitely do family-style and order a variety for the table! (Only complaint is that nobody came for water refills until we were literally about to go! But otherwise the service was fairly quick and friendly.)

    Beef Kabob Plate
    Caly T.

    Small cozy interior (expect to be close to your neighbors) but delicious food and friendly staff! - Beef kabob : delicious logs of meat, not dry and was flavorful! The cherry tomatoes in the rice were grilled perfectly and so sweet! - Chicken plate : somehow better than the beef! The chicken was so juicy and tender, seasoned perfectly! Nice portion and delicious with the hummus side - Baba ganoush : smokey and nice consistency, delicious with the pita and to save for the mains!

    We came for my best friend's birthday and it was really delish! MEZZE SAMPLER lebna, muhammara, baba ganoush, hummus, pickles, 2 falafel 21 Love being able to try all the different appetizers! Everything was tasty. BAKED HALLOUMI jalapeno, meyer lemon, herbs 14 Halloumi generally doesn't have much flavor, so I was blown away when I tasted this! One of my favorite dishes of the night! The seasoning was great. SHAKSHUKA farm egg poached in a spiced tomato & pepper stew 14 I've never had shakshuka and didn't have high expectations, but this was so tasty! BEEF KABOB PLATE 22 spiced kabobs, grilled tomatoes, tehina, mom's rice, hummus, half pita The beef kabob was good, but a little on the dry side. CHICKEN SHISH TAWOOK PLATE 22 yogurt marinated chicken, charred onion/red pepper, toum, hummus, mom's rice, half pita Everyone preferred the chicken over the beef. SAMIR'S HAND KNEADED BREAD 6 fresh pita with caraway, nigella, thyme topped with zaa'tar and sumac Tasty bread to dip in the hummus and anything else!! Tasty Mediterranean spot!

    Excellent Mediterranean food. So many options to choose from. Place was vibrant with people. Staff were friendly and receptive to our food preferences. We ordered vegan and vegetarian items. We are very happy with the food and the overall experience. Nice location too. Thanks to the team here who put together such an awesome spread!

    Chicken Shish Tawook Plate
    Amanda M.

    I go take out here one evening and ordered the mezze sampler and the chicken shish tawook plate. The mezze sampler came with lebna, muhammara, baba ganoush, hummus, pickles, 2 falafels and pita bread. Everything in the sampler was good, the muhammara had a nice roasted bell pepper flavor. The chicken shish tawook plate had marinated chicken, onions, red pepper, toum, hummus, rice and pita. The chicken was delicious. It was moist, had good amount of char and spice. The toum on top of the chicken was a nice balance to balance the smokiness. The onion and red pepper were charred which was a nice addition to balance the meat. Having the side of rice, hummus and pita worked nicely with the meal. Overall, very good experience, I will be back. They get busy here so ordering take out works nicely as well.

    Are dogs allowed on the patio / outdoor eating area?

    I saw dogs on the patio while I was there and no one said anything, it seemed friendly. I'd give them a call to confirm but it seems if the dog is social and well behaved it wouldn't be an issue.

    Do you have a vegetarian plate, something like the beef kebab sides but with Falafel or Halumi as protein options? A lot of people would like a vegetarian plate of food, not millions dishes. Please consider a vegetarian plate with all the lil sides.

    Yes, you can order the Falafel Plate. Not listed on the menu, buts it’s the beef kebab plate but with five falafels instead of 3 kebabs. $16

    Can you post up your menu?

    Can you let the staff know, when we ordered it there was lots of confusion and no outs with the plate. Thanks! Vegetarians want a plate with all the foods too. Please put in menu.

A plate of zucchini, grape tomatoes, Moroccan mint leaves, and a pair of Bulgarian cheese; complimentary for my first visit here.

Main course, veggie kabob on a bed of basmati rice drenched in saffron and spices, along with some onions and mushrooms, and of course, a large Lavash bread at the bottom to fill the whole plate.

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.

    Lovely spot to have dinner in West Portal. Cozy spot,…read moreupscale casual dining. Great wine menu - I am picky with my red wines these days and enjoyed my $11 glass of old vine Zinfandel. We loved the Combo appetizer plate which came with generous portions of 9 different items. I loved everything ! I'm an eggplant lover and two of the dips were eggplant based . My new favorite dip is the Mercimek Kofte which is a red lentil based chunky dip ; I would've guessed garbanzo bean based dip. The Haydari dip was also super addictive, a thick creamy dip made of kefir cheese and Greek yogurt. So many delicious but gut healthy items of the combo plate; which comes with thin lavash bread. Also loved the red lentil soup, which was warming on a rainy day. I thought it was flavorful without being overly spiced or too thick. My husband enjoyed the lamb kebabs. Tender juicy cuts of lamb that were well seasoned , comes on a bed of salad and rice. We also liked the charred red peppers and onions on the kebab . Service was sufficient Overall great little find for dinner !

    New favorite Mediterranean place!…read more This is about a 15 min walk from where I live so I'll be coming here more often. Big fan of the portions at this restaurant. We ordered the combo plate which came with a lot of Pita bread, definitely enough to share among 4 people. Dishes came with a big helping of hummus too. I personally got the Kofte Kebab which filled me up. I had enough to bring home for lunch the next day. Getting a frozen yogurt at Easy Breezy is a must afterwards!!
