Interesting cuisine on Haight
Reviewed by tlorenz on 2008-06-20T17:34:17Z

I love coming here because it really adds to the Haight-Asbury experience, and it's great to take any tourist-friends who are visiting. Get the meat and veggie combo to really get the most out of the food, and the flavor pops when eating it with ginger beer. Though there never seem to be very many people here, don't let that dismay you-- the food is terrific and it's the people that make the experience, right?

Pros: Not your normal cuisine

Cons: Very little ambiance

eat with your fingers!!!

The food here is really good and decently priced. I particularly like the lamb and the greens (not sure what kind!). The service is really friendly too. Try the Hakim stout - I'm not much of a beer drinker but I love this beer - dark but not too heavy.

Pros: food, beer, friendly service

Cons: ambiance, location (parking)
