Still thinking and drooling about the mouthwatering tiramisu I had from Za'atar (and I don't even have a sweet tooth). Since indoor dining is temporarily on hold in this crazy Covid-age, we are so lucky in the Bay Area to have culinary wizards like the ones at Za'atar who can deliver quality food to our home and office. After all, just because we're sheltering in place doesn't mean we can't enjoy a delicious meal. Za'atar also offers a wide array of Mediterranean dishes (fresh hummus, Fattoush Salad; meaty Kababs; Chicken Shawarma Wrap; and a variety of hearty rice bowls). Plus, there's plenty of vegetarian friendly options for our non-carnivore friends. There truly is something here for all palates. Best of all, the entire menu is made with fresh, local ingredients. If you're looking for a healthy lunch or dinner for delivery or pick-up (that won't impact your waistline or your pocketbook), you'd be hard pressed to find a better dining option in town. AND... if you don't mind the calories, then DEFINITELY order the tiramisu. It's totally worth the extra 20 minutes on the treadmill. read more

Za'atar - Tiramisu - Mediterranean Near Me - San Francisco, California

I've only eaten they're food via food delivery. Every single time it's always SUPER good! This is one of my favorite places to order delivery from during lunch. I've ordered 4x times from here in the past two months. The tzatziki sauce is one of the best I've ever had and their wraps (chicken and the beef&lamb) are awesome! I definitely recommend this place! read more

If you're looking for GUARANTEED AMAZING local take-out, look no further! I've ordered from Za'atar for two nights in a row because it was so freaking good! No shade to any other Mediterranean place, but I think this is the most flavorful I've encountered. If you see that coupon on GrubHub, then go for it! I used both of mine up already, HAHAH. GO FOR THE HUMMUS!!! Seriously, the most flavorful herbed hummus I've had. What else did I love?...everything! The Lentil bowl is a winner (the lentils are made into baked balls and served up with veggies, rice and dressing). Tabouli makes a great side. Oh, even the fries with aioli are worth every bit of the $5.00 price tag. And don't forget dessert. Baklava is not pricey at all, and still calling my name. Probably not the cheapest food you'll find on the Grub Hub, but worth every dollar. So get into it! It's time to build our local businesses back up!! read more

This lamb bowl was super delicious and it was my first time trying Yelp to order my food. It was simple and convenient and I like the business model, creative! read more

I ordered delivery for the lamb &beef bowl and it was delicious!! The portion is large and very filling and the lamb/beef was particularly well done. I definitely plan to order here again. read more

I stepped out of my comfort zone and tried this place. It was soooo amazing. Like everything tasted good! We ordered the grilled salmon wrap, lamb and beef kabob wrap, and the lamb and kabob rice bowl. Everything had so much flavor. Texture and cooking was just perfection! I can't wait to order again. Ordering from DoorDash was also surprisingly well. read more

The chicken bowl is a 10/10, I highly recommend it if you're looking for a filling and hearty meal that won't give you an oops-I-overly-indulged food coma. The ingredients tasted fresh and the components of the bowl were rich and well-seasoned, but far from overpowering. This will be one of my go-to Mediterranean lunch spots now. read more

Ooooof I don't know how to write this review. I should have given 5 stars 12 months ago, because I've been nonstop ordering the falafel and tzatziki for like the last year at least once a week but they just dropped both from the menu? Now I can't even order a falafel wrap. I'm so bummed I have nowhere to spend my money here now, because I really liked the food before. Not looking forward to finding a replacement. Anyone got a new rec for good tzatziki? read more

This review is only for the Philly Cheesesteak sandwich. It was the saltiest cheesesteak sandwich I've ever had in my life. Even the cook look salty himself. The pictures deceived me yall read more

I think of Za'atar as Levantine cuisine elevated to a whole new level! It's pure soulful food that is so beautifully done and presented. It's very filling but at the end of the meal you still feel light, and that's probably because of the fresh ingredients they use. Ultimate Favs: Lentil Ball Rice Bowl which happens to be an age old recipe of the owner's family that has been passed down from one generation to the next. I simply can't get over this one and it happens to be the best pancake I've ever had - the Pancakes stuffed with Ricotta cheese and candied toasted walnuts with rose water. Also devour all the different tahinis they offer like jalapeño, mango, oregano, etc. which compliments all their dishes so well! Favs: Truly enjoy their spin on hummus with the mushrooms, grilled chicken, lemony chickpeas, etc. Love the Chicken Rice Bowl too as the chicken is so perfectly done and the rice is extremely flavorful! Another hit was the Chickpea Shawarma with sweet potato fries which was extremely filling and so worth the money for the portion! The Pita with Zaatar and Labneh also makes for a great starter. I can't recommend this place enough! My husband and I have ordered from here twice in 2 weeks and we still reminisce our meals from here read more

Zaatar never disappoints! delicious healthy food, and their hummus is real middle eastern style which is so hard to find! read more

Za'atar - Mediterranean Near Me - San Francisco, California

I've ordered the chicken shawarma wrap and beef + lamb kabob wrap from Za'atar. They got my beef and lamb kabob wrap order wrong and sent me the falafel wrap instead. Even so, the wrap, as well as the chicken one, were both super delicious. The wraps are packed with protein and a perfect amount of sauce, pickled onions, and veggies. I usually order the salad on the side and its not bad but nothing special - mixed greens with a side of oil. But the wraps themselves are satisfying enough! read more

I found this place on Google maps named after my favorite herbal mix, and by some miracle my cell phone with T-mobile had an internet breakthrough and I was able to get service for just long enough to look up directions before it went down again. So I drove to a seemingly industrial part of town and found myself sandwiched between two warehouses in a nearly empty parking lot. Yelp listed it as "catering" so I wasn't sure if they served to individual customers. But I found the window cut out from the upper half of their warehouse door, and rang the bell once. A bit later, a European man came out to explore my options. I mean he introduced the menu. Okay that wasn't a gangster movie euphemism, it was literal, I swear! Anyways, they didn't have a credit card processor there, so they only took orders online through their website, provided by Door Dash. But I didn't have internet. I rolled down my car windows and waved the phone around in the air, like I'm trying to get an alien signal. Fortunately, it seemed the City College of San Francisco was nearby with free guest wifi under "#CCSF GUEST". So I ordered. The site says it would take about 20-30 minutes, but the guy inside let me know it actually takes about 6. And surely, 6 minutes later he came out and handed me the order. Now I'm no vegetarian but I love eggplant, so I ordered the Rice Roasted Eggplant Rice Bowl. It came with a whole sliced eggplant joined at the base on top of an explosive mix of rice and other ingredients. Maybe it wasn't so heavily seasoned with salt and pepper, but who needs that when the chickpeas, the green salad with some kind of vinaigrette, the pickled onions and potato bits, and the herbal rice carry their own weight? The diversity of flavors that nearly fully packed the takeout container was wonderful. There was no need for a dominant main item with sides in the typical paradigm. The entire mix made it work. I have to thank them for throwing in a couple baklavas, so soft and sweet, with cinnamon and honey (?) topped with pistachio nuts. The location is a bit odd, but I highly recommend this literal hole in the wall. read more

This is my third time to order this place. Super satisfied with the food, highly recommend. read more

Za'atar - Ke Lamb & Beef Kabob Rice Bowl with extra chicken - Mediterranean Near Me - San Francisco, California

I am shocked this place has good reviews. The food is very sloppy placed in a black plastic container that looks like it has been sitting there for at least 6 hours. The yellow sauce that came with the order was the most bitter unpleasant sauce I have ever had. And the cookies where even worst than the meal. Do the people here taste the food ever ? Biggest waste of $20. Chefs/ owner TASTE THE FOOD. There is something wrong with it! I guess I should Have known when I called in the lady who answered was the most clueless person I have ever spoken to. read more

The food was mediocre and expensive for what u get. The food is prepared in basically a literal hole in the wall . Outrageously expensive for the quality u receive - you would do better with food cart food read more

Really good food! Especially love the fattoush salad and avgolemono soup. This has become my go-to when I don't have time to cook.

I would love to know who owns this establishment. Thank you! Delicious falafel and chicken rice bowl!!

Food is just OK at best. Not authentic. Rice tastes like Spanish rice. Beef kabob is a burger patty. Service was ok. Slow. It's a quick place but overpriced. read more

Za'atar - Mediterranean Near Me - San Francisco, California

Ordered 3 or 4 times through DoorDash and am very impressed by the consistently fresh ingredients, flavors, and generous portions. Keto-friendly if that's your thing. The hummus is delicious and really silky, not gritty. All this wrapped up in great packaging. Packaging sounds like an afterthought, but when you get soggy fries in a plastic bag full of condensation from other restaurants, you will appreciate Zaatar's packaging. I highly recommend! You won't regret it. read more

My fave place for mediterranean! Everything they have is perfect - their tzatziki is on point, their meats are perfectly cooked / grilled. I don't know if I want to try any other spot because I love this one so much. read more

We got a delicious meal delivered last night. Roasted eggplant bowl and Lentil Balls Bowl. Delicious and healthy food. We're sure to reorder from them soon. read more

TL; DR: Ordered delivery via Grubhub - they're take out/delivery only. Quality ingredients, tasted fresh and some of the best Mediterranean I've had. I ordered the chicken shawarma wrap and the falafel side w/ lemon tahini (which was seriously amazing btw!). The falafel was clearly made to order, had a bit of minty taste and was super yummy to the last morsel. The chicken shawarma wrap was also seriously good and fresh and came with a fresh spring mix salad full of cucumbers, shaved red onions and tomato slices. Definitely a full meal all around. Great portions for the value. read more

Went to their address thinking it was a sit down restaurant, luckily they had an outdoor picnic table and one of the ladies even covered it with table a flannel clothe and center piece (sunflower?) while we ordered thru the app. Chef asked for our names and got our orders quick. As a bonus before we left, a 3rd person maybe another of the chefs got us 2 chocolate puddings with whip cream, for free! read more

We got Za'atar for delivery. There was a BOGO deal with the chicken bowl and hummus. The food was good, but it was quite expensive especially for the amount of food given. The eggplant for the fire roasted eggplant bowl and wrap was also not seasoned very well. Overall, solid mediterranean place but probably won't go back. read more

Ordered lamb and beef kabob, baba ganouche with pita, and tzatziki with warm pita. The order was missing tzatziki with warm pita. What I did get was delicious though. read more

Za'atar - I ordered the following items and the tzatziki and the pita was missing. What I did get was good though. - Mediterranean Near Me - San Francisco, California

We decided to order dinner from Za'atar because of the good reviews but we're really disappointed. I got the keto chicken dish - sadly the veggies were still pretty crunchy (raw) so I skipped them, and the chicken was a little too chewy. A higher disappointment was the corn salad. It looked nothing like the picture on the website - it was more like a lot of yogurt with a little corn. Threw it away, sadly, as I wanted a little dairy with a lot of corn, not the opposite. read more

Loved the Avegolmono soup, also got a salad and chicken healthy meal that were fresh and good. I felt everything needed more flavor and seasoning. If they do that this would be an easy 5 stars as it's healthy and balanced otherwise. read more

Great food and WONDERFUL customer support. The owners were swift and friendly after a DoorDash order was canceled (by DoorDash) one hour before lunch for 15 hungry physicians. Without hesitation or pushback, they kindly completed the order and managed to get it all prepared by the original requested time - they even labeled each meal with a name for convenience. Much appreciated. For those with food allergies - FEAR NOT! Za'atar has gluten-free, vegan, and vegetarian options. Ordering Za'atar feels like a homecooked meal made with fresh ingredients and a whole lot of love. I will be back soon. read more

Portion is perfect. Just enough to feel full and ready for Happy Hour snacks in a few hours! Meat was perfectly spiced and grilled. My belly and are so happy right now! Can't wait to try the other items on their menu! read more

Za'atar - Lamb & Beef Kebab Bowl - Mediterranean Near Me - San Francisco, California

Just ordered lunch for the office. We ordered: Beef and Lamb Wraps Salmon Wrap Eggplant Wrap Chicken Wrap French Fries and Baklava All in all VERY Good. The meat in the wraps and the kabobs was perfectly cooked - even the chicken which does not tend to get as much attention as the others. The bread was divine - soft and fresh. The veggies were fresh and crisp. Only minuses: No Ketchup with Fries. I know it's Mediterranean, but in the US - I'm lost without ketchup for fries. Baklava was soggy - with no crunch. Not the heavy on the bottom with sugar and butter soggy, but an all the way through sort of soggy. read more

Amazing food! The sauces and veggies are supper good. Ordered from here several times via DoorDash and was amazing every time

Love this spot! Go to during quarantine for an Omni household. I am vegan and gluten free and partner eats everything under the sun We are able to find fresh and delicious foods here every time. We love it here! Thanks to the owners, all the chefs, and everyone on staff who helps put food in our bellies. We appreciate you!! We'll be back, again and again and again! 10/10 would recommend to a friend read more

I have order from Za'atar a few many times. I was disappointed, this last time I ordered. 1) the chicken was really dry 2) the rice was crunchy 3) the vegetables were under cooked (aka crunchy to a crisp) read more

Great, simple, healthy food with lots of Vegetables, an item left out of most meals at most restaurants.

Food is so tasty! Close to our house. They do delivery. And they share the same space as a boba shop. So I go there and get their chicken rice bowl and my bf love their beef and lamb bowl and I get myself some boba as well! Definitely a repeating customer read more

Za'atar - Falafel Wrap (3 pcs) - Mediterranean Near Me - San Francisco, California

Fresh salads, decent portions, and tasty meats. So far we ordered dinner twice from this place the past week after craving good mediterranean/mid-east food. My wife and I have mostly been cooking at home so we needed a change. The chicken salad, kebab salad, salmon salad were all great. The kebabs were a bit salty for me but I have been reducing my sodium intake so normal people will probably think it is good. I just ate a bit more salad with the kebab. The vegetables and salad ingredients are very fresh. Grilled artichokes were definitely worth the extra. The funny thing is that from the signs outside and their dessert menu, they seem to be a catering kitchen for St Germain Creperie! I will have to try one of their crepes sometime! read more

This was a Forkable order to my office. Absolutely delightful meal. Chickpea spiced rice was perfect. The purple cauliflower and other veggies held their own. Pickled onions were perfectly tart. The salmon and sumac yogurt paired so well together. I'd happily pay $25 for this meal at a restaurant. Will reorder again 12/10! read more
