I live in the Outer Richmond neighborhood. I have been going here since this place opened. Today I ordered the wrap sandwich. Very disappointing experience overall. First of all the man working the counter had terrible customer service. He never explained what was in the wrap. When my order came it was this huge wrap that was cold. Not even the pita bread was heated. The wrap was filled with pickles. Overall, the filling was bland and overly salty. I am a huge fan of wrap sandwiches, and quite frankly this is one of the worst wrap sandwiches I have ever had. I like to support the restaurants in my neighborhood, but I won't be returning here. read more

i've been here a few times before, and it was busy when i went to pick up lunch. the service was pretty bad but whatever, my food came out fast. and i got the hummus falafel bowl for a whopping $20 ish without realizing just how much hummus is in it (i might sound silly for saying that but it's literally just all hummus in a large bowl with 4 falafel swimming in it). the ratio for hummus to bread or even falafel felt very uneven i had to take the rest of the hummus home and eat it with chicken and rice (which was really good anyway). if they provided a 2nd pita, or even a 5th falafel ball, then it would've been perfect. read more

Hummus Bodega - Hummus Falafel - Kosher Near Me - San Francisco, California

We love eating at Hummus Bodega every time we come to San Francisco. The crispy chicken schnitzel, the creamy hummus, the fluffy pita. A much appreciated kosher oasis in San Francisco. read more

Had a chicken hummus bowl and it really was pretty good. It's just expensive ($24) which take it out of the casual lunch zone and reasonably makes you expect some fancier vibes. But the hummus, chicken, and pita are all tasty. But they seem busy so I guess people are very much willing to pay it. I guess I am too, but not that often. read more

My husband *loves* hummus and mediterranean food. So we're always searching for a staple place to get his hummus fix. Hummus Bodega may be that place. We got two hummus bowls - falafel for him, tel aviv for me. Both were good. There was *a lot* of hummus in the bowl. The pita bread was fluffy and delicious. In hindsight, we should've done one hummus bowl, and one salad, for more variety. read more

Hummus Bodega - Kosher Near Me - San Francisco, California

Really tasty food and exceptional service. The place is a little small, but cozy and the food more than makes up for what it lacks in size.

Hummus Bodega is amazing! Super delicious falafel and obviously hummus. I will definitely be back.

Tasty flavors and a fair value! Falafel balls had great flavor - only wish the entree portion had more of them or they were bigger. Tasted very fresh and nice crisp outside with a soft inside. The hummus was super creamy and delicious. Went well with the soft pita. French fries were thick and worked with the hummus too (but I did think it was a little random) The cabbage didn't really taste like anything but it mixed well with the cucumber tomato salad. Unfortunately they don't do substitutions so I asked for combo plate without the pickles, but it would have been nice if they just gave extra half scoop of salad or their mushrooms. read more

Probably the best Mediterranean food I've had in the Bay Area. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and just really well done. The service was amazing too, super welcoming and attentive. I seriously love this place and can't wait to come back. read more

Located on a busy part of Geary Blvd so parking can be a challenge on 20th Ave. They have a big display that you can use to order. It's senior friendly with pictures of everything. It can be daunting. I kind of knew what I wanted because I had been perusing the Yelp pics. If you go later in the day a few things may not be available. I ordered the Tel Aviv and the Falafel Salad. I love the Tel Aviv plate! Slices of eggplant, hummus, pickles, cucumber & tomatoes! Everything seems to go together well. The Falafel Salad not so much. The Falafels were kinda hard. I imagine it will take several trips to try more things and figure out what I like. The hummus is one of the best I've had! read more

I live a few blocks away and this was my first time here. There food was not bad. I enjoyed the hummus we got and the fires. One thing that I would recommend changing is the ketchup. They don't not have those big packaged ketchup, but those tiny packs that you would get at a fast food place. This is so inconvenient and we kept asking them for more, and they were so busy, and I didn't want to bother them too much. It was a dilemma. I probably will not come back again unless I am in the mood for some hummus read more

Places like this should not be allowed to exist because my stomach and mouth simply cannot handle the out of this world flavors and smells. My husband and I had spent the morning at the Sargent exhibit at the Legion of Honor and this place popped up on my yelp. We drove over and found parking in the local neighborhood and walked about to black to this medium-sized, but unassuming place. We started at the colorful menu for awhile unable to decide between the Tel Aviv and the shashuka. We decided on the Tel Aviv and I got the Schnitzel with a side of falafel. After ordering on the touchscreen, we realized that we forgot to order drinks and went back. We both for the pomenade. There were no signs or instructions, so we grabbed them out of the fridge and went to wait for our dine in order. After about 5 minutes, the man, who I assumed to be the owner, dropped off some straws for us. The drink is very tart, but refreshing. When the food arrived, our jaws dropped. We had clearly ordered enough for an army. The food was beautifully plates and I had no idea where to start, so I dipped into the hummus with my fries. I kid you not, this place makes me want to drink their hummus as a smoothie. It was so rich, creamy, smooth and just plain phenomenal. Everything on the table was fresh, bright and holy wow, you definitely get bang for your buck. The chicken schnitzel was a surprise, but when I broke the pita in half, added the Schnitzel, the salad, the friends, the hummus and the spicy green sauce, I was in heaven. Run, don't walk to this place. read more

Well, it's been a long time that I didn't eat. Very tasty food. I'm highly recommend Also getting a free coffee, a really good coffee I will eat there again every time that I will be in that area. This is the restaurant that I'm gonna eat highly highly recommend. read more

Not exactly the food I tend to gravitate to but there was a ToGoodToGo offer so I decided to check out Hummus Bodega. Happily I can say that I was very happy with my Dinner option, and was impressed with how the kitchen made sure each order was prepared at the time of pickup. The meal provided was a very generous serving of Creamy Tasty Hummus, Fresh Pita, and a wonderfully healthy Salad. In truth I was craving a hearty salad , and resisted the urge to add additional carbs to pair with the Hummus. I found the food to be fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. As for parking it's hit and miss depending on the time of day, but there was ample parking today in the late afternoon of Monday. Regarding seating there is both indoor & outdoor seating though the external seating might be best on pleasant days or nights. It's also along Geary which is busy with traffic if that's an issue consider a picnic at any of the numerous Green spaces like the Presidio, Lincoln Park, Golden Gate Park or any of the SF Beaches :) read more

I have coronavirus and I was craving the pickles. I considered buying a full pound of them, and I probably should have in hindsight. But the hero of my order was the pita. I have never had pita bread like this, ever. It's wonderful. The Classic Hummus was also just incredible, and I got a lot of it. Hummus Bodega is a neighborhood mainstay, and I'm so grateful you're this close in my time of need. Thank you, and much love. read more

I come here all the time because everything on their menu is bomb!! And vegan/vegetarian which is awesome. I specially love their pita Tel Aviv sandwich with eggplant and egg! I was so surprised by how delicious this was. The egg and fried eggplant go so well together, including all the sauces. This time I go their Shakshuka plate, which came with a whole loaf of challah bread, fries and a cucumber tomato salad. I love that they give tahini with it- it's my fav besides from hummus:) Super filling, super delicious, super worth it and the staff are sooo friendly! I love that they are of walking distance from me!! I also love their hummus and sometimes get an extra tub of it to go:) Highly recommend this place- my boyfriend who's an avid meat eater loves this place too! read more

Was in the mood for something hummus-y and we found Hummus Bodega's rave reviews on Yelp. I was super impressed by their falafel pita sandwich. The pita was soft and doughy and not at all soggy when it arrived (we ordered via delivery). The falafels inside were gently crisped on the outside and moist and flavorful on the inside. Super tasty meal, we'll be back for more without a doubt. read more

The best hummus, hands down!!! The pita is so soft and billowy. I could just sit down with a stack of pita and a mound of hummus, and be a happy camper. Falafel is excellent too. Overall, great food. Highly recommended!!! read more

Very interesting menu, great options! Good service. Nothing to complain about! Ordered the Pita Latke (sandwich) & the falafel plate. Everything was good! I've never had a potato latke in a pita sandwich before, and it was pretty good! If only it had a spicy sauce to go with it, it would have been amazing! Falafel plate was also good. Generous & filling amount of food. Falafels were on point, crispy & tasty. My toddler couldn't get enough of them! Pita bread was soft and good! Fries were great too. Everything on the tray just looked so appetizing. It was a great stop for lunch, and sitting outdoors in the warm + windy afternoon was so pleasant! read more

Hummus Bodega - Hummus Falafel - Kosher Near Me - San Francisco, California

My usual modus operandi under C19.... Me - driving by, Me - see lines, Me - record in brain for later visit, Me - see no line on a different day Me - park and go buy food to go Had: - Hummus Falafel Bowl - 4 small 50 cent piece sized falafels swimming in a bowl of hummus. The hummus was very smooth but had a lingering bitterness as an aftertaste. Comes with two pita - Tel Aviv Plate - guess I should have read the plate components more closely, the only thing different was the fried eggplant slices... - Baklava - pistachio / honey / filo layered confection which I usually get at all Mediterranean restaurants and bakeries. Pass on this small expensive piece which was SOGGY. Where was the crispy filo layer? Non-existent. Overall - expensive for what you get in quality and quantity. Friendly service. Parking can be challenging on busy Geary Blvd. read more

Closed for Passover. March 27. Reopens on April 5 after closing for Passover. The mushroom-onion is so-o-o delicious...I devour this with gusto! The pitas are warm-soft-chewy pillows of pleasure. Hummus Tel Aviv makes my tastebuds do the Happy dance...with hard-boiled egg and fried eggplant! The Romanian eggplant salad is refreshing with the seasoned tomato sauce and peppers (we will order Exploding Eggplant next). EVERYTHING is satisfying...falafel, tahini, pickles... read more

Hummus Bodega - Hummus Tel Aviv, falafel, pita, mushrooms-onions, eggplant salad, tahini, pickles - Kosher Near Me - San Francisco, California

Hummus Bodega Is one of the best Middle Eastern restaurants I have been to. We had a hummus bowl with falafel, an exploding eggplant and Israeli salad. All--as well as the pita and side sauces--were excellent. Can't wait to come back and try the shwarma! read more

Food was very mediocre and the prices were very high. $27 for a chicken plate ordered at a counter is very high, even for SF. On top of that the service was not very good. The guy taking our order was far more interested in talking to some friends across the restaurant than finishing our order. Between sentences with us he would talk to them at a cross-room volume right into our faces. This turned a simple 2 time order into a long ordeal. Then, before even taking our payment, he walked away from the counter to talk to them leaving us standing there waiting for him to come back knowing our food wasn't even in progress. On top of that, the food was very slow to be delivered, largely because he could barely focus on bagging it up during this still ongoing epic conversation. Anyways, Sajj is across town but it's far tastier, cheaper, and has lots of choices to customize, so I'll just be making the trek there when I have a craving for some chicken and hummus. read more

I always get takeout from them and it has always been finger licking good and hard not to eat immediately while walking away. The fluffiest warm Fresh pita with a distinctive tang, texture and chewiness - it is still really good the next day or even after a couple of days. Hummus is the lightest smoothest and creamiest you might ever try. Falafels are also really good fresh and light - crispy on the outside and tender inside. They are also still very good the next day or even after a couple of days just reheated in the toaster oven. Service is always friendly. Servings are generous too. read more

The hummus was creamy and taste delicious I ordered the hummus with mushrooms and pita bread and for desert I had the chocolate desert Highly recommended read more

Got to try other things through Too good to go. Their curry dish is fantastic. Of course their hummus is the best. The falafel was crunchy and went with the hummus and the salad. Everything they make is so fresh and yummy. read more

The soup was a 5/5. Nicely presented in a metal bowl and super tasty with delicious lemon notes. I'm excited to eat more food from Hummus Bodega. My one complaint - this restaurant really really really needs new, cafe-like tables. The current tables are wobbly and beat down. They're also awkwardly big and make a screeching noise if you try to move them. Regardless, the soup and the staff was great and I'll absolutely go back for more. read more

So happy they reopened after renovations. And they kept the original falafel recipe, which is amazing. Service is excellent, falafel bowls and sandwiches are hearty enough to share. We counted five falafels in our sandwich! Such nice people with a strong service ethic and delicious food. read more

Such delicious Israeli food. I loved the fried eggplant so much that I ordered it for a gathering. And I must say, after over 50 years of eating French fries, theirs are top three in my life as long as they're hit when you eat them. A fulfilling vegetarian feast awaits you. Yum yum yum. read more

The shawarma sandwich might be the best sandwich I've ever seen in my life. Service is great.

This place started as a corner shop than expanded to park let. You order from iPad and they bring you the food. The menu is limited but both vegetarian friendly and has chicken. They have wraps, and bowls. The humus is amazing, reminds me of Israeli humus. The wraps are nice, but the pita was just ok not great. The Israeli salad didn't use the best tasting produce. The eggplant was deep fried, not a fan. It's a no thrills place with great lunch for takeout or eating there. read more

I bought a falafel plate for my daughter and she didn't like it. I tasted the hummus and it was bland. She ended up just eating the falafels. read more

Hummus Bodega is my new favorite place in San Francisco. The Tel Aviv sandwich is to die for and worth the $20. It's made with hard boiled egg, crisp eggplant, freshly baked pita, onion, pickles and cabbage. After one bite into it I had wished I ordered another... My friend even tried it and had regretted not ordering this sandwich. Surprisingly I thought the pita and sandwiches were better than the hummus here. The hummus here is pretty good, but not the best I've had. It's a more mild, creamy flavor and makes a perfect pairing to the sandwiches. I can't wait to come back to Hummus Bodega, I feel like it's one of SFs best kept secrets. read more

So happy to have finally made it to Hummus Bodega today for a late lunch with my family. Everything was delicious, well worth the hype! We ordered a split pea soup, a falafel plate and an exploding eggplant. I would recommend all 3 of these dishes. If you're hungry, the falafel plate had a good amount of falafel plus a big portion of Israeli salad, pickles, hummus and pita, rice. The exploding eggplant was a Smokey delicious dish - so so tasty! And the pea soup was home made and excellent. Go here, you can't go wrong! read more

Was looking for a fresh, vibrant meal and decided to check out Hummus Bodega. We were blown away by the quality of food and I am obsessed with the fries. Everything was so delicious and the staff is beyond thoughtful. They let us try the shawarma because we first opted for the crispy chicken. Of course we switched our minds after the sample because the shawarma is delish! I do not like lamb but the lamb fat and chicken combo is perfection. Towards the end of our meal they also offered a sample of their dessert. We loved it so much we ended up ordering a different dessert to try it and we liked that as well! I'm from LA, and wish Hummus Bodega was closer. I will be back! read more

4.5 stars. I came by to get takeout on a Sunday around 1pm. There was a short line and people waiting for their orders. I ordered the Bodega Style Hummus Bowl, a Tel Aviv Pita Sandwich, and a side of falafels. The vegetables were so fresh in the hummus bowl. The hummus itself was amazing. I liked that there were whole chickpeas in it as well as it added more textures to the bowl. It was also very filling, but it wasn't heavy at all. The best thing though was the pita bread. I should've ordered another one. The pita was thick and fluffy. The overall order was a lot since it also came with a salad and fries. Fries were standard. Salad was good and refreshing. Tel Aviv Pita Sandwich was good. I thought it was really savory even though there wasn't any meat which was great. I had a few bites of it, but it was super satisfying. The egg was just amazing. The pickles that came with it were just okay. I thought they were too vinegar-y without having much other flavor. Falafels were okay. They're kind of small, so it's perfect for snacking. I think by itself, the taste is overwhelming, but with the tahini, it gives a nice balance. I would definitely come back and try their other bowls, plates, and pitas. read more

I've been to Hummus Bodega a few times for lunch. It's a great spot for a quick and delicious meal in the Richmond District. We got two different plates and tried a little from each other's meals -- the Tel Aviv Plate and Falafel Plate. Portion sizes are very generous and we had extra to take home. They were very accommodating and allowed me to substitute my pita bread for extra salad. The Tel Aviv plate comes with fried eggplant, egg, salad, hummus, fries, pickles, and pita bread. The Falafel plate comes with the same sides, but falafel instead of eggplant and egg. Both plates were excellent. The fried eggplant was very tasty, without being greasy. The falafel was flavorful, and not dry or oily. The sides here are very good. Their hummus is one of the best I've had -- light, fluffy and delicious. The fries are quite crispy. The salad was good, but a little bland -- we added some of the side sauce (yellow) and salt, and then it was perfect (that sauce is amazing!) Would absolutely come here again! read more

Hummus Bodega has the best hummus, pita, and falafels i've tried in SF!! All their items are super fresh. We dined outside during COVID-19. We got the bodega hummus (came with one pita), a pita falafel, and fries. I wish the bodega hummus came with more pita because it was sooo fluffy and I couldn't stop eating it! The bodega hummus had chopped tomatoes, onions, and tahini. The pita falafel was delicious, but could use a spice/acidity component to take it to the next level. The falafels were amazing though! Super crispy on the outside and hot and fresh on the inside. The fries were cold by the time we ate them, so they were just okay. We liked the little side of chopped vegetables too. The co-owner Matan came out and let us try some of their regular hummus, and it was amazing!! There was olive oil drizzled on it and it was so silky and creamy. It only lasts for 4 days after it's made, so eat the leftovers quick! I had a hummus toast at home that was delicious. read more
