Where to Nosh on Jewish Food in San Francisco and the East Bay

"Hummus Bodega’s housemade hummus only lasts a few days after purchase, something that dismayed purchasers until they learned that a tiny consumption window means it’s fresh. The all-kosher spot also serves Frena’s fantastic pita, and a selection of falafel sandwiches and bowls." - Eater Staff

Hummus Bodega Review - Richmond - San Francisco - The Infatuation

"This counter-service restaurant in the Richmond has everything we want in a quick-hit lunch spot. Their solid Mediterranean plates are filling, but not so heavy that you’ll be in desperate need of a nap afterward. And decision-making is efficient—just pick whether you want a pita, bowl, or plate, and narrow down a filling like fried eggplant or sautéed mushrooms (there are lots of vegetarian options). The crispy falafel are a standout, along with the fried-to-order chicken schnitzel that’s nice and golden brown. If you’re on a mission to get in and out as fast as possible, you can take your spread to go. Alternatively, stay awhile at one of the few tables inside." - Julia Chen

Had a good experience at this place. Seating was very limited with dinky chairs that were not very comfortable. We got there early to beat the lunch rush and it filled up quickly afterwards. The pea soup was so delicious and they were nice to let me taste test before deciding on what to order! They have a “self serve” water station that makes things more convenient for visitors, however the limited space and crowded layout makes it difficult for people to actually get their own water without getting into the way of other patrons. The hummus bowl was yummy but felt was a bit expensive for what it was. Overall, had a positive experience.

From the very first bite, I knew I had stumbled into something extraordinary. Hummus Bodega isn’t just a restaurant — it’s a flavor-packed journey through the Middle East, served with soul, heart, and a whole lot of tahini. Everything felt deeply authentic — like the kind of food you'd get in a bustling Tel Aviv market or from your Israeli grandma's kitchen. The portions were incredibly generous; we all left full and completely satisfied. The fries were perfectly seasoned and crispy, and as a bonus, they brought us free za’atar pita bites that were warm, flavorful, and addicting. We ordered a variety of hummus bowls, each one slightly different in topping and seasoning, and every single one was absolutely delicious. You can tell how much thought and care goes into crafting each dish — no shortcuts, just pure flavor. Even the split pea soup — my dad’s go-to order at every restaurant — was a knockout. Creamy, comforting, and full of depth. It’s rare to find a place where even the side soup gets that much love. Hummus Bodega is the real deal. If you're in San Francisco and crave something authentic, warm, and unforgettable — this is where you need to be. Run, don’t walk!!!

Love this place, best hummus in the city, and their pita bread is SO fluffy (my favorite kind). Online you can read about their intentional hiring as well (Richmond Sunset News).

This meal was unbelievable! One of my all time favorite “lowkey” vibe meals in SF to date. Walked in around noon on a weekend and started off empty to quickly get packed with no seating left within a half hour. The eggplant sabich was quite literally phenomenal. The eggplant itself was incredibly well done and all the vegetables and tahini were perfectly crisp. My husband said the hummus bowl was also delicious and wonderfully creamy. We were wrapping up and went to thank the staff for a wonderful meal, alongside grabbing an extra hummus to take home, and the cashier was so delighted that he treated us to a dessert on the house. To think the halva mousse was ridiculously creamy and yet non dairy was phenomenal, highly recommend giving it a try. Totally a must try place and we’ll definitely be back

Really good food , though I’m glad I was here during the day for the discount happy hour. I very much enjoyed my falafel sandwich.

We did a takeout yesterday. Things were mostly ok including the taste and the quantity of food just felt slightly on the expensive side but I found this thing in my pita sandwich. Safety hazard 😢😢

Fantastic food! Hummus as smooth as silk and twice as creamy. We are here for a quick lunch and where blown away. I had a shawarma pita, which was stuffed to overflowing and packed with flavor. Meat was a little chewy but juicy and well seasoned. My dining partner had a falafel hummus bowl that must have been made with a pound of chickpeas. The falafel is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside; perfection. Would absolutely eat here again and again and again

Top-notch hummus, pita, falafel, soup, and quite lovely and welcoming staff who actively take the extra effort to provide a great meal and experience. I had a late lunch here with my sister today after we went to an exhibit at the Legion of Honor. We topped our Schwarma and Falafel sandwiches with their Amba and Tahini. We got hummus and Split Pea Soup to take home for dinner to accompany our leftovers (the sandwiches were very generous). I wish we had got more pita to take home to freeze. One of guys came by and gave us small cups of delicious Turkish coffee - totally unexpected, and a perfect taste punctuation to end the meal! This is now a definite place to for me to stop at when I'm near this neighborhood (or a good reason by itself to make it the destination).

A coworker raved about this spot and said that she loves their hummus, so I had lunch here on a Wednesday afternoon. This is indeed a bodega that sells hummus, as well as baked goods, condiments, desserts, and spreads. Order at the counter, and your food will be brought to you. There's plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. There was a monthly special advertised when I visited: The Persian Kebab. The friendly cashier told me that it was made with beef & lamb, and he was planning on eating that for lunch later, so I decided to try it out! Persian Kebab Plate: Persian Kebab (4 pcs), hummus w/warm chickpeas, Israeli chopped salad, cabbage, pickles, split pea soup, and pita ($27.00 + tax). +Huge portion! I had the leftovers with some rice for dinner. +Persian Kebab was nicely charred on the outside yet moist on the inside. As someone who eats lamb, I enjoyed it but if you don't like the gaminess it may not be for you. +Hummus was smooth, rich, and not overly salty. Chickpeas on top were a nice touch. +Normally, I'm not a fan of split pea soup, but since it was cold I opted for that over fries or rice. It was delicious and I think they made me a fan. +Pita was fluffy and warm. I wish there was more than one! -Israeli chopped salad, cabbage, pickles provided freshness, but I wish some of the veggies weren't tart. *Verdict: Quite expensive for a fast casual spot, but the food is well-prepared, and portions are generous.

I wanted something light for lunch and stopped by this place. Between 2 people, we shared the Bodega Style Hummus Bowl and it was probably the best hummus I ever had! The hummus is creamy and flavorful. We got the bowl with an extra pita and added an egg. Their pita is so fluffy and comes out very warm! I definitely recommend ordering extra pita if you're sharing their hummus bowls. This is a small restaurant with limited seating, so we got our food for to-go. I definitely recommend trying out this spot if you're in the area. I'd come back again to try their other dishes!

Wow I am BLOWN away! Hummus Bodega was incredible -- so fresh and flavorful. I ordered the Falafel and Bodega Style Hummus. The falafel was probably the best I have ever had! It was crunchy, garlicky, and crisp. I loved how cute and little they were. The bodega style hummus was massive and some of the creaminess hummus I've ever had. It was topped with pickes, spicy shattah, chopped salad, and tahini. I do think the hummus could've done with a little more salt, but that's just personal preference. The pita that it came with was also insanely good! I'd defining order again, especially because of the quality and massive portions. Hidden gem in the city!

The food was delicious, but the service was disappointing and the price was high. We arrived in the mid afternoon for a late lunch and the place was busy. Our order was promised in 5-10 minutes, which seemed overly optimistic given the obvious staffing shortage. We had to bus a dirty table ourselves since the staff was preoccupied with other matters (taking orders, trying to placate another irate/entitled group, and running orders). The eating area was also fairly dirty, overall. When our order finally arrived (in take out containers since they seemed to have run out of dishes), it was very tasty. The Persian kabobs were juicy, the pita perfectly puffy, and the hummus incredibly textured. We may have arrived at an off day, and look forward to trying again--hopefully after they have time to hire and train more staff.

In the neighborhood and hungry I texted my sons: "meet me at Hummus Bodega in about 10 minutes and I'll buy". Not surprisingly, this impromptu invitation bought them both to the table. My younger son barely looked at the menu. He likes someone to make a recommendation and he likes things that he's not had before. He went with the recommended Pita Shawarma ($23, made with chicken) and a drink with its identity written in a language other than English (turned out to be grape juice). I opted for a Hummus Falafel Bowl ($19). Both this and the Shawarma benefited from the addition of the Mango Sauce and the hot pepper mix (both available upon request). When my older son arrived he remarked "I've walked by this place a lot but never been in because the prices... whew". This caused my younger son to notice those prices as I'd already done; they're probably the highest I've seen for this type of food in this type of space. The food is good and, even though only one of us added a drink, a meal for three ran about $75. So: very good food, somewhat overpriced, and in a space that, visually, doesn't merit the expense. That said, there's this: The menu confused and overwhelmed me a bit and even left me wishing for photos of everything. I came home and looked on-line and see that I somehow missed the "Exploding Eggplant" which others rave about and some other things I'd really like to try. A return visit may be in order. If you want this cuisine, your portfolio is thriving, and you aren't looking for fancy digs in which to consume it all, Hummus Bodega will definitely satisfy.

Food was very mediocre and the prices were very high. $27 for a chicken plate ordered at a counter is very high, even for SF. On top of that the service was not very good. The guy taking our order was far more interested in talking to some friends across the restaurant than finishing our order. Between sentences with us he would talk to them at a cross-room volume right into our faces. This turned a simple 2 time order into a long ordeal. Then, before even taking our payment, he walked away from the counter to talk to them leaving us standing there waiting for him to come back knowing our food wasn't even in progress. On top of that, the food was very slow to be delivered, largely because he could barely focus on bagging it up during this still ongoing epic conversation. Anyways, Sajj is across town but it's far tastier, cheaper, and has lots of choices to customize, so I'll just be making the trek there when I have a craving for some chicken and hummus.

Woooooooow!!!! I'm super impressed. I've been eyeing this place over the past year and I'm so glad I finally got to try it out for my birthday. This had to be the best Mediterranean food I've possibly ever had. I was able to get the kebab plate and the Tel Aviv hummus bowl and both were amazing. The Eggplant was phenomenal!!! You MUST try it. It brings this food to a new level. The most flaky crispy exterior with a soft and moist interior. Never had anything like it and I'm still salivating, trying to recreate the memory of savory deliciousness in my mind hours after consuming it. Hands down the best eggplant I've had in my life. The hummus was fantastic...very smooth, creamy and rich. Could have used a little more flavor but doesn't have the bitter aftertaste that some hummus can have. The PITA was even of great mention - pillowy soft and so fresh. Definitely the best pita I've EVER had. Everything was absolutely fresh and delicious. Also got to try their coconut custard with pistachio and rose syrup. It was light, creamy, delicious, unique and had a homemade taste. Thoroughly enjoyed it. The plate had a good variety bc it comes w a nice mix of Israeli salad, hummus, pita and fries. The kebabs were more like a ground mixed meat and veggie. It was good but would have preferred chunks of meat instead of ground. Looked like they had a shawarma present but not available on the to go ordering? Would have also liked additional meat choices available but can't complain bc everything I ate was tremendous. My mom, who is extremely picky said it was "A+++." That indeed is more than a compliment and tells you something. We will be coming back again for sure. This is place is legit and authentic. The man at the front helping with my order was very friendly and great. The lady cooking my food was also working so hard to put it together so it would be fresh and hot!

Solid food in a chill environment! Pricing on some items seemed a little steep, but other items were great value! Got a vegan falafel plate, which included so much food - falafel, pita, cucumber salad, pickles, and hummus. Most importantly, the hummus was perfectly creamy and just a little bitter from the tahini, which is my preference when it comes to hummus. The falafel was alright - a little too dry and dense for my preference. Ended up eating over two meals, which made it a great value at $22. I added Moroccan carrots for $9 - pretty pricey for just a small, 8 oz container but easily the best item I had!! Vinegary, a little heat, and perfectly soft carrots - I would order these all the time if they were cheaper! Also had the Malabi - vegan coconut pudding with rose syrup and pistachios for $4. Verging on a little too sweet, but it was a perfect mini size that didn't overwhelm me. Partner had a shawarma pita, which he liked as well! The person who helped us at the counter was sooo nice - he steered me towards the fries, which I admit are some of the best on the westside. Very knowledgeable and patient, and gave great explanations for all the items on the menu. I think they went under new ownership a few months ago, but it's just as good as before! In fact the menu is far more legible than it was before lol I've come here multiple times and will continue to come! Thank you for always having vegan options!!

Hummus bowls are pretty good but pretty pricey. But there's probably enough food for two meals worth of appetizers. I've gotten the shawarma hummus bowl before and the forest bowl this time, and I would say the shawarma bowl is tastier. The hummus bowl comes out nice and warm, but it cools down really rapidly. And if you want it spicy, they add their green sauce to your bowl. There was a lot of tumeric in the forest bowl which was fine. The best part of the meal was eating it with their pita. It's so warm, soft, and chewy. The fries were very crispy and also a good item to order. Service can vary between friendly or intimidating, but overall they put out a decent product.

The best hummus, hands down!!! The pita is so soft and billowy. I could just sit down with a stack of pita and a mound of hummus, and be a happy camper. Falafel is excellent too. Overall, great food. Highly recommended!!!

I got the shwarma pita sandwich. It was honestly delicious, but for 23 plus tip? Come on. But the price was not even the worst part, I got the craziest shits ever after. I have been pooping for the past few hours a constant stream of poop. I've lost at least 4 pounds. WTF. The poop is not stopping yet either. Starting to think I might need a doctor. (The sandwich is the only thing I've eaten today). I guess if your tryna shed a few pounds this is the place for you

Hummus Bodega Is one of the best Middle Eastern restaurants I have been to. We had a hummus bowl with falafel, an exploding eggplant and Israeli salad. All--as well as the pita and side sauces--were excellent. Can't wait to come back and try the shwarma!

I always get takeout from them and it has always been finger licking good and hard not to eat immediately while walking away. The fluffiest warm Fresh pita with a distinctive tang, texture and chewiness - it is still really good the next day or even after a couple of days. Hummus is the lightest smoothest and creamiest you might ever try. Falafels are also really good fresh and light - crispy on the outside and tender inside. They are also still very good the next day or even after a couple of days just reheated in the toaster oven. Service is always friendly. Servings are generous too.

i've been here a few times before, and it was busy when i went to pick up lunch. the service was pretty bad but whatever, my food came out fast. and i got the hummus falafel bowl for a whopping $20 ish without realizing just how much hummus is in it (i might sound silly for saying that but it's literally just all hummus in a large bowl with 4 falafel swimming in it). the ratio for hummus to bread or even falafel felt very uneven i had to take the rest of the hummus home and eat it with chicken and rice (which was really good anyway). if they provided a 2nd pita, or even a 5th falafel ball, then it would've been perfect.

Love coming in here especially on a cold day. It's always nice and toasty in here. The customer service is very nice. He answered all the questions I have with their menu! Service of food does take a little bit so I highly recommend calling in or ordering online!

Had a chicken hummus bowl and it really was pretty good. It's just expensive ($24) which take it out of the casual lunch zone and reasonably makes you expect some fancier vibes. But the hummus, chicken, and pita are all tasty. But they seem busy so I guess people are very much willing to pay it. I guess I am too, but not that often.

Another delicious visit to Hummus Bodega. This time for a Kebab Pita Sandwich. Always better when visiting with friends too. One thing to note is the homeless encampment on the sidewalk at the corner of their building. Not a great dining experience outside at the street tables. But just move inside and you'll be fine. Service was as expected and good. The menus this time was poor. Why? Just slap your palm over most items because they weren't available. No falafel for lunch? Sad. No Shashuka at all? Almost a sin!!! Fortunate for me I am omnivorous. Accessible enough for a wheelchair for indoor or outside dining. Getting to the Bathroom is a very tight fit and can be blocked at times because of stock, and people. You can usually find a parking spot within a half block. Don't let the very possible menu dings dissuade you from a visit. Hummus Bodega serves us good Kosher food, for what's left on the menu that they can still make and serve.

I have coronavirus and I was craving the pickles. I considered buying a full pound of them, and I probably should have in hindsight. But the hero of my order was the pita. I have never had pita bread like this, ever. It's wonderful. The Classic Hummus was also just incredible, and I got a lot of it. Hummus Bodega is a neighborhood mainstay, and I'm so grateful you're this close in my time of need. Thank you, and much love.

So happy to have finally made it to Hummus Bodega today for a late lunch with my family. Everything was delicious, well worth the hype! We ordered a split pea soup, a falafel plate and an exploding eggplant. I would recommend all 3 of these dishes. If you're hungry, the falafel plate had a good amount of falafel plus a big portion of Israeli salad, pickles, hummus and pita, rice. The exploding eggplant was a Smokey delicious dish - so so tasty! And the pea soup was home made and excellent. Go here, you can't go wrong!

Hummus was liquid with no taste. Pita was soggy. Falafel balls were burned. $19 for a dish like this?

The soup was a 5/5. Nicely presented in a metal bowl and super tasty with delicious lemon notes. I'm excited to eat more food from Hummus Bodega. My one complaint - this restaurant really really really needs new, cafe-like tables. The current tables are wobbly and beat down. They're also awkwardly big and make a screeching noise if you try to move them. Regardless, the soup and the staff was great and I'll absolutely go back for more.

Was looking for a fresh, vibrant meal and decided to check out Hummus Bodega. We were blown away by the quality of food and I am obsessed with the fries. Everything was so delicious and the staff is beyond thoughtful. They let us try the shawarma because we first opted for the crispy chicken. Of course we switched our minds after the sample because the shawarma is delish! I do not like lamb but the lamb fat and chicken combo is perfection. Towards the end of our meal they also offered a sample of their dessert. We loved it so much we ended up ordering a different dessert to try it and we liked that as well! I'm from LA, and wish Hummus Bodega was closer. I will be back!

So happy they reopened after renovations. And they kept the original falafel recipe, which is amazing. Service is excellent, falafel bowls and sandwiches are hearty enough to share. We counted five falafels in our sandwich! Such nice people with a strong service ethic and delicious food.

Was in the mood for something hummus-y and we found Hummus Bodega's rave reviews on Yelp. I was super impressed by their falafel pita sandwich. The pita was soft and doughy and not at all soggy when it arrived (we ordered via delivery). The falafels inside were gently crisped on the outside and moist and flavorful on the inside. Super tasty meal, we'll be back for more without a doubt.

I decided to come and try this spot. I was in the area. The ambiance was pretty ok. I have ordered one item and it was well over $20. It was shocking. The service was pretty terrible. There was no communication. I was waiting for my order and no one acknowledged that my order was ready even though it was sitting on the counter. They were unorganized. The most shocking part of this whole experience is that when I got my receipt and took a look at it. They have an underhanded and deceptive practice. They have absurdity to charge the customer a "delivery fee". After discovering this deceptive practice it didn't sit well with me at all. I don't think I be paying customers for this restaurant. It's understandable that running and owning a business is not easy but lying to the customer is the absolute worst thing that a business owner could do to a customer. Update Now they are claiming the " delivery fee" is label as a SF bag fee. I was not given a bag for my order. There is no sign displayed this information in the restaurant.

Come here if you want something quick, filling, and tasty! I tried their crispy chicken sandwich for $20 and half of it was enough to make me full! It came with cabbage, red onion, pickles, and tahini! Also got their Tel Aviv Bowl ($16) which came with the creamiest hummus and crispy eggplant and boiled eggs. WAS SO DELISH! They also have dips to go and all of them sound so good, we opted to try the Matbukha which is roasted bell peppers seasoned with chili pepper and garlic. Goes well on anything!

"All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost..." TL; TR: No, your ears won't fall off eating vegetarian! Affordable and hella good is what's up! 4.5-stars! Yea, I admit I've been working on one of these Gen-Z reviews for awhile lol. This is Eric Z.! The end. :D Hummus Bodega: affordable Modern Mediterranean vegetarian cuisine in the Richmond District of the city. My weekend lunch buddy and I decided to come here on a whim... and admittedly not knowing they served absolutely no meat lol. Our one tracked minds only read "Mediterranean" and so here we are... next in line... and hella why not! Our ears won't fall off, right?! Hummus Bodega: the perfect set-up post Covid times, where you order and pay at the cashier and seat yourself. We both ended-up ordering Hummus Falafel plates, which comes w/ French fries, Chickpeas, and chopped Israeli salad. A couple of sauces available and also a large handful of ketchup packets! Not much seating, maybe three tables inside and maybe 3-4 cafe tables outside. However we noticed most orders are for take-out. Once seated they will bring your orders to you. Drinks available or water by request. I'm not sure if it's Mediterranean water, but most likely Richmond district tap. Lunch is served! Of course both of us being Vegetarian novices... we immediately start with the French fries lol. Is this by design or what? Fries nice and crispy and seasoned just right. Falafel balls and Pita bread were the stars! As I graciously slipped all my pickles to my lunch bud. In the end, I can see why Hummus Bodega has such a high rating! It makes sense for Vegetarian lovers in the city - add in Modern Mediterranean and you have a unique experience that will wake up your senses. Even as a card carrying Omnivore I enjoyed my lunch and tbh felt cleaner and OMNI in the days to follow! In fact, did you know in this lifetime I once did Vegetarian for six weeks, I enjoyed the Hare Krishna buffet up the road the most, well until the chanting began... Mmk.

Falafel was not freshly made, frozen perhaps, greasy and burnt. Employee ignored me, he was talking to his co-worker. 15 minutes later... Over priced and a scorched oil smell. Floors and windows dirty.

Save yourself $25 bucks and go somewhere they take pride in their work. This place makes overpriced average food in a messy kitchen. It's unclear if the proprietors like running a restaurant. I won't inconvenience them with my patronage anymore.

Got to try other things through Too good to go. Their curry dish is fantastic. Of course their hummus is the best. The falafel was crunchy and went with the hummus and the salad. Everything they make is so fresh and yummy.

I live a few blocks away and this was my first time here. There food was not bad. I enjoyed the hummus we got and the fires. One thing that I would recommend changing is the ketchup. They don't not have those big packaged ketchup, but those tiny packs that you would get at a fast food place. This is so inconvenient and we kept asking them for more, and they were so busy, and I didn't want to bother them too much. It was a dilemma. I probably will not come back again unless I am in the mood for some hummus

I gave Hummus Bodega another chance using a delivery service, and yay! My order went through! Food is spectacular. Definitely get extra pita, it's so soft and delicious. A little pricey, but worth it.

My husband *loves* hummus and mediterranean food. So we're always searching for a staple place to get his hummus fix. Hummus Bodega may be that place. We got two hummus bowls - falafel for him, tel aviv for me. Both were good. There was *a lot* of hummus in the bowl. The pita bread was fluffy and delicious. In hindsight, we should've done one hummus bowl, and one salad, for more variety.

Places like this should not be allowed to exist because my stomach and mouth simply cannot handle the out of this world flavors and smells. My husband and I had spent the morning at the Sargent exhibit at the Legion of Honor and this place popped up on my yelp. We drove over and found parking in the local neighborhood and walked about to black to this medium-sized, but unassuming place. We started at the colorful menu for awhile unable to decide between the Tel Aviv and the shashuka. We decided on the Tel Aviv and I got the Schnitzel with a side of falafel. After ordering on the touchscreen, we realized that we forgot to order drinks and went back. We both for the pomenade. There were no signs or instructions, so we grabbed them out of the fridge and went to wait for our dine in order. After about 5 minutes, the man, who I assumed to be the owner, dropped off some straws for us. The drink is very tart, but refreshing. When the food arrived, our jaws dropped. We had clearly ordered enough for an army. The food was beautifully plates and I had no idea where to start, so I dipped into the hummus with my fries. I kid you not, this place makes me want to drink their hummus as a smoothie. It was so rich, creamy, smooth and just plain phenomenal. Everything on the table was fresh, bright and holy wow, you definitely get bang for your buck. The chicken schnitzel was a surprise, but when I broke the pita in half, added the Schnitzel, the salad, the friends, the hummus and the spicy green sauce, I was in heaven. Run, don't walk to this place.

Ordered a shawarma pita sandwich! Very disappointing - it's basically just a pita bread with shredded lettuce and pickle - hardly any meat. Ridiculously overcharged at $23 - daylight robbery! Won't be back!
