Poke Origin San Francisco Reviews
Charming mom and Pop place with good prices. We couldn’t believe how big the wraps were and they were absolutely delicious. Like I was in SHOCK! First wrap I really liked since moving to SF. We got the deluxe wraps, chicken and beef. Both were great. You can tell they take the time to do things right and they even make sure to grill the outside of the wraps. And we loved the french fries and eggplant inside of it! What a fun touch.
Great, fresh food, lovely folks working hard and a cute garden seating area! The cook whipped up our order in a flash- she was done by the time we had finished paying at the counter! The ingredients were fresh and portion sizes absolutely perfect. The person behind the counter was very nice, welcoming and professional. The garden seating area is cute, with ample chairs and tables, little plants that someone takes great care of and wind chimes in the garden next door. Everything is clean and tidy. We really liked it!
This place is walking distance away from the California Academy of Sciences in Golden Gate Park. The food is great and the service excellent. I had the Mediterranean Sampler (Hummus, Falafel, Dolma, Baba Ganoush, etc.) - It was all great and I highly recommend it, especially if you've never had middle eastern food before or are looking for a vegetarian option. My husband initially ordered the beef shawarma wrap, but after it was served, and my husband asked, he was told that it was not halal. The owner was so nice that he replaced the order with chicken shawarma and would not charge us for the non-halal beef wrap.
Had the chicken shawarma plate. Huge amount of food and a great price. Every was fresh and delicious. The two guys behind the counter were very friendly and happy to serve us, I don’t know how this place isn’t slammed every night. The food is bonkers good. The falafel is amazing!!
I tried Mediterranean Plate and some bowls. All are delicious. The first time I haven't noticed a cozy backyard. It's a great place to relax! Thank you!
I’ve been coming here for over 20 years. The salad dressing is so delicious I wish they would bottle it.
Good shawarma, great hummus and baba ghanoush, healthy options available.
At this very moment, I am devouring a delightful falafel/hummus/tahini wrap from Yumma's. This is my first, but definitely not my last Yumma's meal! Oh, and in addition to their yummy food, Yumma's staff is very kind and professional.
Authentic food just like home great service awesome garden area to friendly staff

The meat here is SO GOOD! And the women who run this place are so sweet - in a world where everything is just about aesthetics this place serves up great good food without fuss. If you’re in the neighborhood support this place
Best Mediterranean food, nice customer people, nice owners. I will definitely be coming back.
Ordered pick-up and the wrap was amazing. Full of flavor, super delicious, and a lot of food. Can't wait to come back!
Love this place- we come about once a week for an easy, healthy dinner. Service is always so friendly and the food is delish. A neighborhood gem!
Super friendly service. Food is prepared fast and is pretty good for a quick meal.

Omg!! Looks like a small, nothing place. Absolutely delicious food from very friendly people. I would eat there today if I were close by. Highly recommend
Lamb is great, but the tri-tip is very tough.

We got our Lamb & Chicken Kebab plates to go, salad with fresh, hummus and seasoned rice. Very flavorful. Best falafel we have had in a long time!! Will definitely be back again to try more dishes.

The lady taking our order was very kind. The hummus was nice, everything else in my plate was pretty average. I didn’t even finish my food sadly. Also the counter was like kinda sticky haha

Got delivery. Food was ok. Prices were great for the area, not sure who is complaining on here about that. Sampler plate was solid. Salads decent but nothing special. Chicken schwarma was the worst I've ever had. Dried out, hard and bland. Clearly had been sitting out warming for who knows how long. Probably won't get it again, there is better Mediterranean in the neighborhood.

Food's pretty meh. Quite cold. Lady at the reception was nice. Would not recommend for the price though.

We decided to try this place. From the moment we walked in until we left a woman who maybe owned or managed the place was talking very loud on the phone non stop . The poor server rushed our food that was heavily fried and not fresh out and kept disappearing. The falafel plate had 4 very stale heavily fried falafel on a bed of mayonnaise soaked cabbage . The server was very sweet but the food, ambiance, rudeness of the manager/owner was awful.
