Kitchen Istanbul

The Best Mediterranean Restaurants In SF - San Francisco - The Infatuation

"With a statement chandelier, a personal collection of movie posters on the wall, and a warm candle-lit glow, Kitchen Istanbul in the Richmond looks like the kind of place where someone would dramatically confess their love over plates of fantastic Turkish food. Order the juicy lamb chops that come dressed in Point Reyes blue cheese and tomato confit and the havuc tarator that’s so creamy it could double as a face moisturizer. Grab the four-top in the back with a few glasses of wine if you're looking to have an intimate dinner party outside the home, or set up in the main dining room to watch couples living out their rom-com moments." - ricky rodriguez, patrick wong, julia chen 1
