The Best Mediterranean Restaurants In SF

"When you go to this Mediterranean sit-down spot in SoMa, be hungry or bring a hungry friend (or two). It’s almost as if the staff at The Bite has whatever the opposite of a shrink ray is in their kitchen. A falafel wrap comes with four gigantic crispy spheres that struggle to be contained in flatbread. There’s so much shaved meat in the rice bowls that you could take the leftovers and open up your own deli. While the meats here are tender and juicy, they can be a bit bland (which can be easily saved by the three different sauces that come with every bowl). The falafel, on the other hand, is consistently flavorful, crunchy, and, naturally, huge. Whether you’re eating here or taking your meal to go, everything is served in takeout containers, making it easy to bring home the leftovers you’ll inevitably have.  " - ricky rodriguez, patrick wong, julia chen 1
