I had a great time here with my girlfriend, sampling delicious tapas and actually (thankfully) saving room for dessert! The inside was definitely loud, which seemed to be addressed by the padded walls, but boy it's still quite loud. We would have loved to sit outside but you definitely need a reservation for that, especially on a Saturday night. We enjoyed the pickled veg dish, the Korean potatoes were *SUBLIME*, the empanadas were dry and underwhelming by comparison to everything else. Our favorite was the squash dish, and the eggplant hummus you really can't go wrong!!! Sipping on thyme lemonade while it's still in season is the move here. For dessert, we loved both the bread pudding and t...
I recently had dinner at this restaurant and found the experience to be excellent. The price per person is between $20 and $30, which I found to be reasonable for the quality of food and service. I would rate the food, service, and atmosphere all a perfect 5 out of 5. Some dishes that I highly recommend trying are the Lamb Shawarma, Chicken Shawarma, Hummus and Pita, Fried Chicken Hummus, and Crispy Smashed Potato. Overall, I had a fantastic dining experience and would definitely dine here again in the future.
You have to look around corners to find this place. It’s really hidden, but it’s there. We didn’t have a reservation but they sat us anyway. It was my son’s birthday. Very small but apparently just right. Everything we ordered tasted wonderful. The presentation was on point. I was even scoping out the people’s orders next to us. Everything looked and tasted flavorful. I will definitely return. It’s kind of pricey, definitely a special occasion stop. Oh yeah, parking is tight.
Oh how I love Culinaria. I’ve been here a handful of times and it offers a surprise each time, while remaining consistently delicious. Tonight, the surprise was the Korean potatoes—an incredible blend of garlic and gochugang flavor. We almost ordered a 2nd batch for dessert! The servers are always lovely, and the drinks are great—you can’t make a mistake here, unless you do not order the spicy labneh : Also recommend the (deconstructed schwarma, a knockout dish.

Outstanding in every aspect! My friend and I, who used to live in San Francisco, had a great chat with our server who also lived there. We could have talked for hours, but she was really busy. Everything was fantastic: the wine, service, atmosphere, and most importantly, the food (which I could eat every day for the rest of my life!). Thank you for a delightful evening.
Huh, who knew fancy hummus was a thing? The good people at Culinaria apparently. Located in a beautiful old horse barn (no that was not a typo, seriously, it is beautiful) they specialize in upscale Mediterranean appetizers with a handful of entrees. Good cocktails as well.

The food was decent considering the price. The staff were friendly. The restaurant was crowded and cramped, making it uncomfortable. The restrooms were blocked by people sitting right next to the doors. I would not recommend this place or visit again. Service: Dine-in Meal type: Dinner

Loved the food! Loved the service! We were 6 and an infant. We started with the Mezze plate to start. yum! Then had the chicken schwarma, paella, and a beautiful salad. The patio was lovely. And they had gluten-free house made crackers were awesome!
