    My photos are terrible, but the food was far from it. Loved the soup. The tabouli in the falafel plate was beautiful and fresh. The portion size was fab and it traveled well for delivery. For the price and quality, this was a fantastic experience

    Chicken rice bowl
    Isaac L.

    Had this via doordash once 2 years ago and have been coming ever since. Always a staple on our team and will keep going back here. The food is so so good and always packed to the brim. I normally can eat a lot, but with this I have to portion it out into two meals and it all tastes so freaking good. Will keep coming back! Love love the herb sauce - adds a nice boost in flavor

    Hummus
    Divya S.

    I ordered via grubhub so can't comment on service or atmosphere. But the food was 10/10. I got the hummus, muhammra, falafel. Hummus and Muhammra came with Bite sized pitas. I also got their hot sauce and it was fire!! Loved everything, great for vegetarians too!!

    Falafel salad bowl
    Jordan L.

    Okay this place is DIVINE!!!! I loved the falafel. So tasty and moist. The hummus was so good as well as the salad and the pickled cabbage. The pink yogurt sauce was wildly good too that came with the pita. We ordered takeout which was perfect for a working day lunch. Will definitely be coming back here and have already been raving about to everyone I know.

    Chicken Half & Half Bowl
    Taylor B.

    Can't speak to the experience at the location itself as I ordered delivery, but I was left feeling very impressed. Albeit a little pricey to have this delivered to me, it was enough food to feed me for 2 meals and was one of the best lunches I've had at work in a while. I got the half&half chicken bowl that came with choice of side (I got roasted veggies), and choice of sauce, along with pickled beets and red cabbage. I got the sumac lebneh hot sauce on the side, but truthfully, I was enjoying the food so much on its own that I forgot to use it until later in the meal. This bowl was HUGE, I should have read the website prior as it was 48oz of food and lasted me through lunch and dinner that day. Everything tasted fresh and I felt good eating it. I will absolutely order from here again!

    Double Pistachio Baklava (2 pcs)
    Tahnee R.

    This place was pretty good! It took about 10-15 mins to recieve our order as there were other people waiting and online orders. My chicken bowl was delicious and would definitely get it again. The only downside would be the pricing, I think it was like $8 for the two small pieces of baklava which were overly sweet. You can get 6 for that price elsewhere.

It's clean, spacious, and service is fast. For me, it's a perfect stop for lunch while walking down the wharf area. Of course with how big they've gotten, there's plenty of branded merch if you're looking for some souvenirs. The cons, no on-site restrooms available if you're doing café or casual dining. They direct you outside to the not so clean public restrooms. If you park behind the building, they'll validate parking for 1 hour. For food/drinks, they have a café, fast casual open-seating, and also an upstairs restaurant dining area. We opted for the fast casual for multiple visits here. Ordering is easy in person. Staff is helpful if you're not sure what to get. Other than that, they're fine, don't expect exceptional service. We tried their clam chowder, crab chowder, beef dip and also their pizza over the course of the weekend. Price is what you'd pretty much expect around the area For two of us, I think the perfect items are to share a clam chowder and a beef dip. The chowder is creamy and has a unique flavor that we enjoy. The beef dip while simple, is delicious. The bread really absorbs the au jus so it's not dry at all. You have to get the chowder in a bread bowl. While at some point, there's only so much sourdough you can eat, it's really how you should eat chowder isn't it? We'll pass on the crab chowder in the future. The flavors just didn't hit right with us. The spiciness was off and it just wasn't our favorite dish. The pizza is good, seeing more and more places do the hot honey on pizza thing nowadays. It's good and a big portion. If there were more of us, it's a nice pizza to share. Overall, this is our favorite Boudin location to visit.

I loved tearing off pieces of the bowl as the sourdough soaked up the soup. We also tried the tomato focaccia, topped generously with tomato sauce and green onions. Soft and chewy with that signature sourdough flavor -- simple but really satisfying. And honestly, the cutest part was all the sourdough bread shaped like animals ! The teddy bear and crab were almost too adorable to eat. There are so many different shapes displayed around the bakery, which makes the whole place fun to walk around.

We had tried bibimbap before in Reno and really liked it, so he wanted to try it again. I ordered the Eggs Benedict with Korean-style fried chicken. For the first time in my life, I also tried a pomegranate mimosa, and it was amazing! It wasn't too sweet, and it had a very slight sourness that made it really refreshing and delicious. I also had coffee, which I enjoyed. When our food arrived, it honestly looked like a piece of art. My husband's bibimbap was sizzling, which was especially exciting. I tried some from his plate, and it was delicious! The Korean-style fried chicken on my Eggs Benedict was also amazing: crispy and flavorful. However, I have to say that I probably wouldn't order the Eggs Benedict here again. I've had better Benedicts, and I just don't think it's the dish to order at this particular place. Overall, we really enjoyed the atmosphere, the location, and the whole experience. I would definitely recommend coming here, especially if you want to try something more Korean rather than a traditional breakfast dish. And definitely try the pomegranate mimosa!

    Fun Korean dinner spot in SF with huge portions and some creative twists on familiar dishes!…read more We started with the banchan -- kimchi, seaweed salad, and fish cake. Simple but a great start to the meal. The Bulgogi BBQ came out sizzling with a very generous amount of marinated beef and vegetables, served with rice, kimchi, lettuce wraps, radish, jalapeños, and ssamjang. Flavorful, satisfying, and definitely enough to share. My favorite and probably the most fun dish was the Shin Ramen Cup Stir-Fry with Millionaire's Bacon . It's basically Shin ramen transformed into stir-fried noodles with vegetables, eggs, and thick pieces of their signature sweet-and-savory Millionaire's Bacon! Great service!

The restaurant was very clean, with a gorgeous view, and we had high expectations. Upon walking in, a few staff members told us our dog was not welcome. He is a trained, ADA compliant, service dog and we explained this when the first few of people stopped us. When we were finally seated, yet another staff member came over and began questioning us, but this time insinuated that they were looking out for the safety of children and staff (which isn't an issue), and wanted to make sure he wasn't dangerous. But our trained, desensitized to humans, animals, busy establishment, and at-work dog had not made a sound, lunged, or done anything but sit quietly while doing his job. At this point, we felt pretty uncomfortable, and hadn't even been greeted by our waiter yet, so we made the decision to leave. This is really upsetting because the view was gorgeous, the inside was beautiful, and I was hoping to leave an honest food review. Instead I'm left feeling like this establishment needs to brush up on their knowledge of service animals as well as the appropriate way to handle customers with alternative needs.
