    Chicken Rice Bowl
    Michelle Z.

    Solid uber eats option! They did a BOGO deal so it was ~$21 for 2 bowls. The chicken rice bowl was good, had lots of herbed rice, and was packed with veggies. It felt healthy and super filling, and the chicken was cooked nicely -- not dry at all and very flavorful. It comes with a tahini sauce as well. Would def recommend for a healthy takeout delivery option!

    I discovered this place while scrolling through Uber Eats and saw a BOGO promotion going on. So why not give it a try! Wow I must say I was pleasantly surprised when my order arrived because not only did these bowls look very appetizing, but they also didn't skimp out on the portion sizes. I ended up trying the beef and lamb kabob rice bowl and the chicken rice bowl. My favorite was the beef and lamb kabob rice bowl. I enjoyed it so much that I forgot to take a photo of everything until I was already halfway through eating the kabob bowl. The beef and lamb (4 pieces per order) was very tasty, and I absolutely loved the pink yogurt sauce! The roasted and pickled veggies also paired well with the meat and rice. I'd definitively order the beef and lamb kabob rice bowl from this place again! Although I'd skip the chicken rice bowl in the future because the bowl was a bit too salty, and the tahini sauce that came with it wasn't that good.

    Wow!!!! So so so yummy! I ordered the chicken keto bowl. The chicken was so flavorful and moist and the cauliflower rice and veggies were cooked to perfection!! The meal was filling but not heavy. I'd recommend this spot if you're looking for fresh authentic food. Can't wait to order from here again!

    Found this place on doordash and it was beyond my expectations. I was feeling a bit helthy so decided on Mediterrenean, not only was my craving satisfied, my body thanked me. I ordered their chicken rice bowl and falafel with hummus so it usually lasts me for 2 lunches at work. Their proportions are big so it matches their price tag. It is quite expensive but you can taste the quality and weigh the proportions. I plan to try other things in their menu as time passes by. They also have gluten free and keto options so please make sure to try them!

    Ordered Ubereats because of a discount. Really good meals. Orders: - Lamb and Beef Kabob Rice Bowl: Great flavors. Also enjoyed the rice and pickled veggies! It could easily be two meals for me - Chicken Rice Bowl (gluten-free): Yummy flavors. Chicken was well seasoned and moist. Rice was again really good! I've only had this place once but I feel like it would not disappoint if I order again.

    Chicken Rice Bowl (but a few bites in, oops)

    Ordered through UberEats because of a promotional deal and I am SO glad that I did. This was such a delicious meal. I ordered 2 chicken bowls (no modifications) and they arrived hot and fresh. The chicken was blissfully moist and I can't believe the value of each bowl - just look at how much chicken they give you! I find that restaurants often skimp on the protein serving, but Za'atar definitely doesn't skimp on anything. I loved the pickled onions, veggies, and turmeric-y sauce that came with it! And don't even get me started on the rice. The rice is so flavorful and pillowy. I wouldn't hesitate to order again.

    I was in the SF area this weekend and was excited to finally try Za'atar after hearing great reviews about it from friends. I placed the order ahead of time and went to go pick it up. When I arrived, I was thrilled about the parking situation. It's located in a very large parking lot, so it was super easy to find parking (unlike so many restaurants in SF) and there were large signs that made it easy to find Za'atar. The food was ready for me to pick up and take home. The worker was super nice and friendly. When I got home and opened the bag, I was amazed at how colorful and beautiful the food looked! Then when I tasted it, I could not believe it. This was without a doubt the BEST Mediterranean food I've ever had! Ordered these: * Mediterranean Salmon Rice Bowl * Beef & Lamb Kabob Rice Bowl * Side Hummus with Warm Pita Just from one meal, I can already confidently say that this is one of my favorite restaurants in all of SF. Looking forward to returning soon to try more delicious food here!

    Hummus with Mushroom Ragu
    Dana Z.

    Absolutely delicious. I am in love with the lamb and beef kabob bowl and ordered it twice. I think the key is to add artichoke hearts and a side of veggie :) also, hummus with mushroom ragu is very tasty. One feedback I'd like to give to Za'atar is that for some reason, the portion for my second order was smaller than the first order - please keep portion size consistent! I remember how excited and impressed I was with my first order, not only because the colors were beautiful, but also how great it smelled, all contributing to the wonderful mix of flavors and texture of everything in the bowl. I will definitely order more from Za'atar and try a few other things on the menu, such as the salmon rice bowl. Overall, great job, keep it up!

    Mediterranean Salmon Rice Bowl
    Jessica L.

    I was nervous about meat drying out during the delivery process, but when I got my salmon rice bowl it was still super moist and tender and tasty! The balance of spices is great, and the rice was super flavorful. Everyone's food came well-labeled, so there was no confusion as to whose meal was whose. I love that they have many keto and healthy options. Highly recommend for lunch delivery, and I would love to come back and try more!

    Roasted spring vegetables

    Ordered delivery via Caviar for dinner. Healthy, filling, yummy Mediterranean food for good value that was as expected. Hummus with mushroom ragu - hummus was creamy and delicious. Only came with one pita pocket though. Would recommend getting extra pita to soak up the large amount of hummus Chicken rice bowl - good amount of protein and well seasoned vegetables Salmon bowl - salmon was too fishy. I wouldn't order this again

We ordered: A whole rotisserie chicken, the RTR Rice Bowl, the Chicken soup, the fried chicken sandwich, the seared broccoli, the rotisserie fat rice, and the shredded cabbage & almond. Best Dishes: The Rotisserie chicken and the Shredded cabbage & almond. The rotisserie chicken skin is really crispy and delicious, we were all fighting over who gets to eat the skin. The chicken is so juicy, it's really the best rotisserie chicken I've had. We understand why this place is so well regarded. The shredded cabbage is definitely the best side and we should've gotten another order, as we quickly finished ours and were basically licking the bowl clean. Worst: The rotisserie fat rice and the chicken soup. The rice was basically untouched and none of us wanted to eat it. It's ok, just falls short compared to the other sides. The soup was also ok, it's just a huge bowl and it felt like a waste stuffing ourselves with that when there were other better dishes. The rice bowl was pretty good, and is really good value. It's yummy and a good meal for 12.50. It's a very casual place, you order at the cashier and find a table and seat yourself there. Great for a quick lunch.

If you're craving something refreshing, light, and fruity, the Sonoma is a must. The pears take it to the next level and give it that perfect sweet, crisp bite that makes every forkful feel extra refreshing. It's the kind of bowl you order when you want to feel bright and satisfied. Now if you're in the mood for something warm, crunchy, and nutty, the Bangkok Bowl is your girl. The texture, the richness, the cozy vibes -- chef's kiss. It's hearty without being heavy and hits all the comfort-food notes. And can we talk about portions?! These bowls are NO joke. I swear I made a huge dent in mine, looked down thinking I was almost done... only to realize I basically still had a whole second meal left. Instant take-home win. On top of all that, the staff is super friendly, the space is clean, bright, and welcoming, and the whole experience just feels good from start to finish. I came for the seasonal menu but I'll definitely be back for everything else too. If you're debating what to order: Sonoma for fresh + fruity, Bangkok for warm + crunchy -- you truly can't go wrong!

My personal favorites are the Spring Salad which is seasonal, the Caesar Salad, Tostada Salad, and Waldorf Salad. They also do great meat sides that you can add to your salad, like grilled steak, salmon, or shrimp. These add-ons cost an extra $8-$12, so when all is said and done you could be paying close to $40 for your salad after tax, which is a little bananas. Still, I can tell they put a lot of care into their ingredient selection, and it's a good option if you don't mind lighting some cash on fire. I do wish they had some more convenient locations closer to the Financial District or Mission Bay, but maybe one day!

The restaurant itself made a great first impression. It was clean, organized, and even had a nice little area set up for social media photos. Unfortunately, the food didn't live up to the presentation. I ordered the Mediterranean Bowl with Greek chicken. The chicken was dry, and it was obvious the seasoning had been sprinkled on after it was cooked instead of being cooked into the meat. I also ordered the Brussels sprouts and fried cauliflower. The Brussels sprouts looked perfectly crispy, which is exactly how they should have been, but they were soft and soggy instead. To make matters worse, the sauce was packed inside the same container, so the steam made them even soggier while also heating the small plastic sauce container inside. The fried cauliflower was equally disappointing. It looked crispy because of its golden brown color, but there wasn't a bit of crunch. Instead, it was oddly firm, almost al dente, making it feel more undercooked than fried. I also tried the garlic chicken soup, expecting something similar to Avgolemono. Instead, it was a thin, watered down broth with the same dry chicken pieces from the Mediterranean Bowl tossed in. The pita bread served with it was honestly the worst part of the meal and the only thing I threw away. Nothing was completely inedible, but for more than $60 worth of takeout, I expected food that matched the clean, inviting atmosphere of the restaurant. Sadly, this experience fell well short of that, and it's not a place I'll be returning to.
