The FiDi Lunch Guide - San Francisco - The Infatuation

"A good, quick stop for Israeli street food served assembly-line-style. The pita is freshly baked in-house, and the chicken is well-spiced. The best part is, when they make your sandwich, they’ll expertly layer all the ingredients so that you’ll never end up with a mouth full of toppings and no protein or vice versa. Whatever you do, don’t skip the skug hot sauce after you get out of line." - Taylor Abrams, Jess Basser Sanders, Will Kamensky

23 Great Places To Eat Something Kind Of Healthy - San Francisco - The Infatuation

"This is one of our favorite lunch options in the Financial District, because even though the pita sandwiches are large enough to convincingly hide under your covers if you wanted to sneak out of the house, they won’t weigh you down the entire day. What you fill it with is up to you, but we like the chicken and the sabik." - Taylor Abrams, Will Kamensky

Sababa Review - Financial District - San Francisco - The Infatuation

"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 also come with your choice of protein, accompanied by copious amounts of pickles, cabbage, and tahini threatening the structural integrity of pita. 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. photo credit: Sababa" - Patrick Wong

If there is a line, it moves fast at SF Soup pace. All the ingredients look fresh and in top quality. The menu has something for everyone and offers something unique that isn't common in the downtown area. Be aware that seating is limited, so if you walk in at 12 then you're going to have to find some place outside close by. The menu is the "Chipotle style" where you pick 1,2,3 items to build your pita. I recommend going with the bowl and getting the pita bread separately. They offered the pita bread to me at the register. But if you're going to sit outside, then I'd probably get the sandwich just to make it easier to sit on a bench and eat. I'm definitely going back.

Falafal is amazing. Chicken is good too. Perfect pita bread. My go-to fillings are the beets and pickled cabbage. Don't forget to grab green sauce near the door.

Love love Sababa! The food is healthy, light & very tasty. The falafel is the best I have had, the various sides are incredibly prepared, portions very generous. I love grabbing lunch here, sitting outside in the rare quiet street of SF while sipping on their mint lemonade that is ridiculously addictive.

Generous portions makes this place worth stopping in for lunch. Although I've had more flavorful (read: unhealthy) meals, the falafel was fresh and tasty, and my stomach was happy. Great value and vegan-friendly. Zero complaints.

Had the chicken bowl. It was super good and the ingredients were fresh. The staff was very friendly as well. I did end up spending almost $16 ($15.75 to be exact) on this meal but they did give me a very generous portion size, plus I guess that is the cost of doing business in San Fran. I would definitely go back again as it was delicious! 😋

This is one of my go-to lunch spots. The line can sometimes be long, but it generally moves fast. I've tried the chicken and kebab options - both have been good! The meat is always perfectly cooked. Love their "spicy" sauces and sides too. Suggest going in before 12 to avoid the long lines. Or after 12:45.
