Pasha SF

The food was great. However, the service wasn’t great. We had to wait longer for someone to show up at our table.

This is a great place with a wonderful ambience peaceful and relaxing. I would especially like to appreciate ESVET, who is a fantastic person and truly an asset to the restaurant. The way he communicates and helps with food selection makes you feel welcomed and relaxed. He went above and beyond by helping me find one of my lost items, which I genuinely appreciated. Thank you, ESVET. I wish you all the best and great success in life!

A few of my friends came here for a cool Tuesday night out. The vibe here is amazing! Music was bumping! Food was great! Hookah was flavorful and the staff was were knowledgeable with great recommendations! Definitely a must visit! I asked how the weekends were and I was told it gets quite busy so show up early. Definitely will add this place to our rotation!

My sister and I visited Pasha last night and had an outstanding experience from start to finish. The ambiance was beautiful, the vibe was unmatched, and the service was excellent. The food was delicious, the hookah was smooth, and everything came together for a true 10/10 night. It’s rare to find a place that gets everything right, but Pasha absolutely delivered. I’ll definitely be coming back and recommending it to friends!

Fun ambience, best hookah in SF. Love the Kanafa and definitely the lamb chops and kabob. We have been visiting from AZ and have been coming here every evening since we found the place. Will definitely miss it . Thank you Izmit for the welcoming atmosphere . He’s the one with the ponytail and big smile. 😊

this is the best Mediterranean food you can get in San Francisco! I came here for my mother’s birthday, and it was the best experience ever! They made us feel very welcome and we had an amazing night! The manager was incredibly welcoming and provided stellar service!

This is possibly the best hookah bar I’ve been looking for since my trip to Dubai, the closest to the vibe and atmosphere. Amazing service, hookah, and food. Friendly staff and recommend anyone looking for an authentic and fun hookah lounge that transports you to the Emirates. Definitely coming back often.

Really great place, yet there’s nothing super special about it. Me and my friends got a ton of share plates along with a hookah and some drinks. The drinks are extremely reasonable and tasty but I could’ve gotten a better hookah somewhere else. Other than that it’s a beautiful place to go and great vibes.

Great food and excellent vibes. Meal, hookah followed be desert. Ordered the kebab and it did not disappoint- I'll be back again!

This place is dope! Service was odd. The food was super good and fresh. Flatbread was huge. Didn't love the drinks. They have good music and hookah available.

Ive been wanting to visit and i finally was in sf. i went around 11 on a sunday. the atmosphere is so nice. they have different ways for you to have your hookah. there was a wait to be seated. the hookah was probably the best i had in a while. i didnt drink but the drinks looked really cute they even had mocktails. i ordered tea which was good. i tried the chicken flat bread which was so good. the chicken wings were cooked to perfection. the service was slow but id give them another try. Such a cute place to come vibe.

After a full night of adventures, Ray, Joanna, and I made a stop at Pasha for night caps and hookah on October 15, 2024. We walked in shortly after 11:30 PM and when greeted by the team members at the bar, were immediately warned that they were closing at midnight. No problem, we could be quick. Venue: 5 stars. Located on Geary Street, there is street metered parking. We were traversing via Waymo and foot, so didn't need to worry about securing a parking space. Upon entry, I was immediately impressed by the chic décor. Cool flourescent beer lights shined through the whimsical environment. We were seated at a half booth table against the wall of flowers which gave us a great view of the entire bottom floor. Menu & drinks: 5 stars. I initially thought that Pasha was simply a hookah lounge that also served cocktails. To my surprise, after reading their menu, I realized that Pasha is actually a swanky restaurant that serves Mediterranean fare in a bar-like environment, groovy music and hubble bubble puffers included. Only things missing were Alice and the Caterpillar. It was late, so we didn't have time nor room in our stomach to nibble on anything. Ray ordered a hookah and a round of drinks for us. Joanna went with KATE's DIRTY SISTER ($14), a passion fruit forward hand-crafted cocktail in which the flavour of the fruit really came through. I had my very first TURKISH COFFEE ($5) here. A great first impression my hot drink left on me. Ray and Joanna had a ball with the hookah. Service: 2 stars. Our waiter was friendly and accommodating. He happily started our hookah for us. Another waitress, though, was clearly irritated by the late comers and by those who seemed to want to linger even just minutes after closing. She made sure to let us know what time they were closing and later, she even got into an argument with some people at a neighbouring table, reminding them that they were closing. Good businesses don't hire staff members with stinky attitudes nor allow anyone in their team to behave in a way that makes customers feel extremely unwelcome and unwanted. There is definitely a lack of professionalism and genuine hospitality here. Total turn off and bummer. Under par service aside, I am still intrigued enough to want to return to Pasha. I'm not a smoker, but it's definitely a unique restaurant with a vibe of mystique.

This place is so cute! I like the ambience and the workers are very friendly and polite. The music is so good, hookah hits and food is delicious

Love this spot. Great drinks and food. They also have hookah. Forgot to take a photo of our cocktails but they were really good. Hummus is delicious and the pita is super soft and pillowy. I love the kofte and adana here. However, I wish they gave more rice and sides with each dish. The portions are kind of small. They play really good music and it's a fun, loungey vibe!

Pasha SF is part lounge, part hookah bar, part bar bar and part restaurant. This makes Pasha an outstanding place to gather with your friends or co-workers. If you're hungry, there's plenty of food options to choose from. If you're in a rush to get back home after work and want to pop in for quick cocktail during HH, that's ok too. If you just want to sit back, relax and smoke some hookah, that works too. There's something for everybody at Pasha. On to the cocktails: Outstanding HH menu: Whiskey sour was my favorite. It tastes more like a gold rush, I think they named it golden hour. Espresso martini with Turkish coffee instead of espresso? Equally delicious. Vibes: Think Tron meets James Bond. If Bond were to fight off evil forces in the year 2075, this would be it.

$35 hookah $13 cocktails Friendly service. They don't start your hookah. Quality is ok. Club like ambiance.

I absolutely adore this place. Upscale hookah lounge with all the good vibes. Came here while waiting for a table at Mensho and ended having a couple of rounds because the drinks were that inviting! Plus on having the drinks pre-mixed - this tells me fast service and they understand the night life in SF - keep em coming! I had the libido which was right up my alley, not too sweet and the freeze dried strawberry to top off the purée was genius! On to the Purple Diamond - not a huge fan of vodka, but definitely a tasty treat. If you're not into coconut then I'd pass on it. We had around 6 cocktails and 2 beers and came out to around $80, which isn't bad at all for SF. I'm definitely coming back to try the food menu. Cheers!

I Stopped here with one of my coworkers. The hookah was harsh and the drinks were instagram worthy but didn't taste good. We didn't try the food. They were playing Arabic and Latin music but the music was sooo loud I couldn't even hear my friend talk. We danced some bachata which was fun. There was a belly dancer too , lol. Random. Service was friendly and fast. Not worth the $$ we spent though.

It's my first time there. We came in and it was quiet and the vibe was dead. The waitress said the tables were reserved and there were no table but nobody was there for 25 minutes. The food was not too good. The meat tasted old and the quality was very less. The place is uncomfortable inside and outside. The outside was unsafe, many bums and drug deals. It will be my last time here. Plus the workers were rude. I don't deserve attitude.

If you're looking for a classy lounge vibe with a diverse music selection and great energy from staff and patrons, Pasha SF is your place! The bar played all types of music: Arab, Desi, Latin, Afrobeats, and some hip-hop/R&B. There were people celebrating birthdays, anniversaries, and even people just coming in because they are celebrating the weekend (my case). The place was packed but the turnover flow was smooth... smooth like their hookah/shisha. I can tell they clean their equipment thoroughly between patrons because I never experienced the ashy, smoky pulls I've experienced at other hookah lounges.

This was my 2nd time coming back here and it was soooo busy. Luckily we got a table upstairs and our waitress was very nice. I got this diamond drink that came in a cute diamond glass! We got hookahs as well that was sooooo smooth - I was in heaven. Definitely check this spot out for a fun group outing or a cute date night.

I was a bit skeptical but IM BACK for the second week in a row. I wanted to wait before I review this spot but this is my low key go too! I love that happy hour is from 5-7:30. Hookah is $25 and they have a bunch of apps for $10 or less I love the Mezze Trio I literally came back for that!! I enjoyed it so much the first time and just complemented my hookah and cocktail. Curtailed cocktails were also good. Hookah : Persian Rose: spice peach and lime. Cocktail : golden hour 10/10 highly recommend. Mezze Trio and chicken wings. My server Fatih was so helpful and customer service was absolutely great BOTH TIMES!!. He was very attentive and made sure I was pleased with everything on both visits. Bartender was also great made a good stiff drink when you go ask for Beran. The aesthetic is cute but y'all knew that from Instagram. Come check it out for yourself. You won't be disappointed

Love love love this place. It's a vibe for a date night or a girls' night out. Good quality hookah that doesn't make me feel sick, delicious eats, and great customer service especially from the manager Esvet. I will say this place does get busy on Friday & Saturday nights so your best bet is to make a reservation to avoid long wait times. Here's the breakdown of the order: Bollywood Nights Hookah - 5/5 this one's probably my fav flavor off the menu Istanbul Nights - 5/5 Classic Hummus - 5/5 my fav appetizer off the menu French Fries - 5/5 the fries are skinny how I like em Veggie Flatbread - 5/5 like a pizza but with little to no tomato sauce Lemon Drops - 5/5 strong aka def not watered down & reasonably priced Lamb Chops - 5/5 I'm not even a red meat or lamb girl, but these were fire and had generous portions esp for $29 Overall, b/t the hookah, food, and the music playlist which ranges from Arabic music, Hip-Hop, Bollywood to Reggaeton, it's reaaally hard to get bored at this establishment. I've only been here on the weekends but def want to come on a Thursday night to witness the belly dancers. Basically, long as they stick to their quality menu & customer service, I'll keep coming back :)

Great place for a late night casual hang when you are craving something in Tenderloin! We got there around 11pm and were seated promptly and the server was there to help us in less than 5 mins. The place wasn't crowded and only a handful of tables had guests up there. The place is known for hookah but we were only hungry for some late night affordable bites. Ordered the Manti, kusbasi flatbread and the chicken skewers with pita and rice and that was more than enough food for three people! Good portion sizes, good service! Def recommend for a group hang when in tenderloin

Pasha is so fun! Our servers Noor and Nora were so beautiful and friendly and very attentive. The food was delicious and it was a very vibrant and upbeat environment. This place is a great place to bring a group of friends if you like good dance music, fun club-like ambience, good food, and hookah.

Lovely place with nice vibes. I was here last week with a couple of friends and tried a hookah and some Turkish tea. The hookah was very well made and the flavors were really good and smooth. The tea too was really flavorful. The servers were sweet and helped us in selecting the hookah flavors well as per our needs.

I went here yesterday on New Year's Eve and I went to had a good time with my family. I would never go back here again, service was horrible. A roach fell on me from the ceiling in the bathroom and I threw up . It's hot as heck in their , and the lady waitress with red hair had an attitude an acted like she didn't want to help us . Served us cold fries . And 4 pieces of chicken for $14 is OBLIVIOUS. they need to be checked by safety and sanitation. And the worst thing is the PARKING , $90 for the closest parking garage is outrageous.

Restaurant ambiance I give it a 9. Server I give a 9 Food I give a 8 in a half Music I would have gave it a 9 cause they played Drake but since somebody played Kendrick Lamar not like us at this place I give it a 2. Everything was fine until they played it lol overall I give the place a 8.5

Just came here for drinks and hookah... didn't order food. Looking at the reviews I was skeptical however we were greeted upon entering and service was great. I haven't been to a hookah lounge with the large floor hookahs and this was the first place where the coals were actually changed out at no charge and without asking! I love that! Drinks were great and overall had a great experience without feeling awkward or mistreated as some said in their reviews.

First time here, the vibes were awesome. They played some really good music. My friend got 2 hookahs and they checked in and refilled them all night. All the food was delicious! I especially loved the chicken wings, fries, and salmon. The skewers were also delicious but not as tender as I would've liked them to be; the chicken was the best. Hummus was delicious! Overall great birthday experience for my friend.

Beautiful spot! I enjoyed the flavorful chicken skewers. I also ordered 2 drinks and they were good!

Hookah burn too fast not enough Shisha the music was all right The drinks was not strong enough it was a alright chill spot do get pack thou

Smoothest hookah I've ever had! I have smoked hookah all over the world, including the middle east and this was by far the most enjoyable puff! Fantastic service, and my wife and I loved the ambience, food and drinks. A+ for the music too! We really enjoyed our time and will be visiting Pasha more often.

I love love love love this place. The music is always a hit. I'm always dancing in my seat. The hookah is amazing and lasts a really long time. The drinks and food are delectable. Oh and not only that but their service is top notch. I feel very welcomed whenever I go to visit. The aesthetics are cute and photo worthy also :)

Bad service! Hookah doesn't taste like anything. It's was burnt flavor. We tried to tell them but they didn't care.

It was an amazing experience in San Francisco!!!!! The food was outstanding, fall in love with the music and the environment. The service more than excellent. Thank you Esvet for the amazing hospitality

Adana Kebap was great. Bartender Niyazi made us a very nice special drink and it was great. (He didn't say what was in it because it was a cocktail he made himself :))) All the staff were professional and attentive. I highly recommend it and we will definitely come back

A hookah bar/restaurant with alcoholic drinks? Sign me up. I'm only reviewing the hookah and drinks. The pasha drink was sour and refreshing. The plum vodka/soju was more sour than I expected. The music inside was way too loud. It was hard to talk to my friends sitting at the same table.. Management, please lower the music volume, it's not that serious. The hookah flavor I had was the blueberry mint and it was ok, I thought it would be more cooling. They do offer custom flavors so ask the server if you wanna make your own blend. Service was friendly and good. Parking is difficult but it's sf so what can ya do.

One of my favorite "finds" in SF! Love the quick and friendly service that felt genuinely kind and welcoming! We stopped here for a quick bite and got small plates of the Ezme and Feta and olives and they were such a good pair. Not heavy at all and very fresh. Ambience is a sexy vibe with dim lighting, beautiful wall art and upbeat music playing in the background. Great hookah selections as well. We went with the one with mint!

The service here is amazing and the drinks are so good! Niyaz makes the best lemon drops!!!

Came here on a date night. Really love the ambiance of this place - the hookah / shisha has those lights and it looks so nice, great for IG pics. The server did mess up our order - I wanted two flavors (mango and pineapple) mixed. Instead I got mango inside a pineapple. It was very cool, but like 3x as expensive and strong! I didn't want to embarrass the server (who didn't speak great English) so didn't say anything. Also this is a good place for women and men - lots of gals celebrating their bday the day I went! Be very clear on your instructions!

SF Pasha offers excellent desserts and top-quality hookah in a vibrant, welcoming atmosphere. Brother Niyaz stands out for his outstanding customer service and warm hospitality. Thank you

It was delicious! I love kunefe and purple diamond!! It was very fast service! Thank you for everything Esvet&Muhammed!!

I' love this pasha way better then redwood city pasha! Such a cute spot , food was amazing sebel the girl that was serving us was a sweetheart! drinks were delicious and hookah was good. We got lucky with parking. The ambiance is so cute and nice the vibes are nice. loved every little decor! definitely recommend to visit this spots Great service!

I went here a few weeks ago with a friend and I am BEYOND impressed. The decor is gorgeous, the staff is INCREDIBLY friendly (shout out to Esvet) and the food is . We sat at the bar and had hookah and a couple of their specialty cocktails. My favorite was the blue diamond, which comes in a really cool, interesting glass. We hadn't smoked hookah in a long time, so Esvet took his time going over the flavors and process with us. The food is classic Mediterranean, but with an upscale twist. There's not a single dish we didn't like. I can't recommend this place enough.

If you're expecting the ambiance of Redwood City Pasha.. you will be disappointed. Service is the same: great Food is mediocre at best. Not the same Menu as Redwood City.. We had the Kusbasi flatbread (lamb pizza), wings, and the Chicken kabob. The lamb pizza tasted like a cheap frozen pizza. The wings had extra batter and very oily. The chicken kabob was good however a little dry. The decor and music is great and has a more intimate vibe combined with a good sound system. I would come again.. but after the menu has been updated. -From a faithful Pasha customer since the original one opened. Thanks

One of my fav go to spots in the city! Good food, pretty & delicious drinks, & great hookah!!! The music and ambiance is such a vibe!

Great Service. Great Ambiance. Loved the Purple Diamond Cocktail. Leave a bit time to park.

Lovely and fun place. Parking lot right accross and convenient. Loved the very unique and beautiful hookahs. The grilled salmon was amazing and their exotic cocktails needed a shout out too

Great atmosphere, DRINKS and food. I really enjoyed pretty much all aspects of this establishment except for my date I was pounding down the drinks and smoking that hookah so I could get through the night! service was top notch! I'd go here again except this time with a group or someone that's not such a creep‍

This place is amazing because 1) they have the best ambience with led lit hookahs, amazing music and nice hookah flavors 2) the owner and staff is very courteous and Humble Must visit if you are in town

The Food: I had the lentil soup, the hummus plate, fries, and the veggie flatbread. With the exception of the fries and hummus plate, the rest was underwhelming and bland. The service was ok the waiters were not friendly and seemed lost, made for an odd experience. The ambiance is off, the music is too loud. Overall this place is not that good I would not recommend a lot of their dishes need more work.

I want to come back here with my girlfriends during happy hour I also want to try Thursday night for belly dancing. I came on. Tuesday for happy hour and enjoyed the ambiance, drinks and music. The service was good the servers really watch for if you need anything or assistance with your hookah

The food was amazing! The atmosphere is just fun with great music, and the service was attentive, although the drinks took a bit longer to arrive. We ordered food, hookah, and a few cocktails. I'd prefer coming here over going clubbing any day.

Great ambiance and service! Exceeded my expectations! Hookah and food is also very good of course.

LOVED the ambiance of this place. Hookah was great, and they have a variety of flavors. The appetizers and drinks were super tasty too. Really enjoyed the hummus platter, which I'd definitely order again. Service was great and I have no complaints. Would recommend this place to anyone for a fun night out.

Really great vibe here! We came when it opened but it quickly filled up. The music is absolutely fantastic and they play music videos above the bar. Crowd is a good mix of people having a good time. The food was good, tea was great, and my husband really loved his hookah. The lighting gives it a club feel. We will be back for sure!
