The Best Mediterranean Restaurants In SF

"This Financial District counter-service spot (with another lunch-only location in the FiDi) makes excellent bowls and pita sandwiches. On the bowls front, choose a rice or hummus base before picking a protein like chicken, kofta, and falafel and fixings from a sneeze-guarded salad bar. Feel free to close your eyes, spin around a few times and point. There’s no going wrong. Sandwiches come with a thick coating of tahini, fistfuls of cabbage and pickled veggies, and your choice of protein. Both options are perfect for a quick lunch or dinner on the go, but we suggest ordering the sandwich if only to taste the house pita which somehow manages to be both chewy and fluffy at the same time." - ricky rodriguez, patrick wong, julia chen 1
