"This Greek mini-chain is an easy, quick, and delicious option for lunch, especially when a sad salad just won’t cut it. Everything on the menu is available in pita sandwich or salad form, and our favorites are the chicken and the lamb. But no matter what, you need to order the juicy potatoes cooked in the meat drippings from the spit and the frozen Greek yogurt topped with baklava, which we like to grab on the way out and eat while window shopping for artisan candles around the neighborhood." - julia chen 1, ricky rodriguez, patrick wong
"Souvla’s tangy frozen Greek yogurt is super refreshing on a warm day, and we inexplicably crave it, Pavlov-style, every time it’s sunny and clear out. They have four toppings to choose from: baklava, sour cherry syrup, olive oil and sea salt, and honey, and you can’t go wrong no matter what you choose." - julia chen 1, lani conway, patrick wong
"If you come here when it’s busy, it’s even better for you since you’ll have to stand in line for a while, but going to Souvla is always a great option. The menu is simple, with only a few proteins in salad or sandwich form, and we usually go for the chicken salad or the lamb wrap. When you’re ordering though, go ahead and make the decision to get some Greek frozen yogurt for your walk when you’re done." - taylor abrams, will kamensky
"Everyone needs a few quick and casual places they can pop into at any given time and get a good meal. In SF, we have Souvla to answer the Panera Bread call coming from deep within, but this Greek mini chain is way better. The menu lets you get your protein in sandwich or salad form, and both the lamb or chicken are good calls. Also, skip the fries and get an order of juicy potatoes cooked in the meat drippings instead." - will kamensky
"The Mission is full of great food that you can only get in the Mission, but that doesn’t erase the fact that sometimes it’s just a Souvla kind of day. It’s easy to stop into this Greek spot and know exactly what you’re going to have with no chance of anything going haywire. Get some lamb and juicy potatoes, and if the day also calls for it, order a frozen Greek yogurt and pick it up on the way out the door. You’ve made enough decisions today, and sometimes the easiest choice is the best one." - taylor abrams, jess basser sanders, will kamensky
