La Mediterranee - San Francisco

The restaurant is currently running an anniversary promotion where checking in on Yelp will result in a complimentary glass of champagne. I opted for the lentil soup and Mediterranean lunch plate. The...

The pomegranate chicken was very tender and the baklava was delicious. I wasn't a fan of the lemon chicken soup, but I did enjoy the filo pastries they served. Unfortunately, there were some dishes that I didn't like.

There are many restaurants along Fillmore Street, but among them there are a few hidden gems. La Mediteranee is one of these gems. It is definitely worth a visit. It possesses the most important quality that a restaurant can have...

Excellent food, great hospitality. I believe this is a neighborhood gem. Happy we came upon this little place while visiting San Francisco. Came hungry, left fat and happy!

I have never had bad food at La Med and we have been there probably 5 or 6 times, each time just as good as the last.I took my partner for his birthday and tried the variety of small plates option they had at the time and every single one was delicious. The phylo dough pastries are crisp, the fillings not at all soggy, the pomegranate lamb meatballs are soft and springy and sweet, sour, and savory.We have been with our family and tried so many great vegetarian options there as well (the dolmas, the potato salad, the falafel--it's all excellent).This weekend La Med catered our wedding reception and our guests had the same things to say. I brought boxes to hand out for leftover food but in the end, there was next to nothing left to take home! (Except some dolmas, which naturally, we, the bride and groom, had to take home to eat for ourselves when we finally got chance to sit down. And I have to say they were just as soft and aromatic at the end of day as they were at the start).I worked with the catering manager Jeff to submit my order, and he/they were so punctual and on top of everything! I sent them an email with what I wanted and within an hour or two, they sent me a quote and placed my order for me. They even provided cutlery and serving materials AND delivery for an extremely reasonable fee!I am so grateful to La Med and if I ever need a caterer, I will absolutely order but when I don't, I am happy that we live close enough to stop by to just have a lovely dinner.Vegetarian options: Plenty of them.
