- NNahidVIPSan Diego •53 reviews4.0Dined todayIt was our first time here. Love Turkish food and we were in town, gave it a try. Most of the stuff we ordered tonight was either completely cold or partially cold. For instance Turkish tea came to our table very cold. I had to ask to change it. The wood fire flower bread was looking good but was doughy! Patlican was completely cold. But, again maybe this is an appetizer that can be eaten warm and cold. Anchovy rice pilaf that came with Branzino was cold and so was the grilled sea beans. The sumac onion that came with shish kebab and looked so gold, was not eatable as it was very cold. Also, there was a slice of tomato with the shish kebab that had grilled marked but fridge temperature cold ☹️ We are not coming back.More infoTaksimPrice: Expensive• Turkish• SOMA•4.8

- TTeresaSan Francisco Bay Area •5 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoI really enjoyed the atmosphere. The staff was extremely nice. It was just hard getting things cause as we sat down, we didn't get the menu right away and waited about 10-15 mins. The menu we got was just the special and didn't get to look at the other regular menu. We thanked the staff for recommendation. Overall it still wasn't bad. Food was tasty! -TeresaMore infoThe RollPrice: Moderate• Sushi• SOMA•4.8
- XXiuqunSan Francisco Bay Area •1 review5.0Dined on 18 Jan 2025It’s a really nice place to eat! The servers or waiters will come frequently like once every 5-10 minutes, if you haven’t ordered yet! The people there were really nice and gave me an 15% off for our next visit! Overall it’s a nice place to eat! :)More infoGyu-Kaku Japanese BBQ - San Francisco, CA | South of Market (SoMa)Price: Expensive• Japanese• SOMA•4.5
