I am so happy to have found this restaurant. The baba ganoush is the best i have ever had, and I traveled a lot. I ordered the lamb with feta, the meat melts in your mouth and the spices mix is flawless. As a dessert, I wanted the knafeh, unfortunately you have to order it in advance because they want to serve it fresh. Now, I am not surprised they told me that because i got to try their pastries they nicely gave to me. Usually I don’t like those ones because they are too sweet and the dough is rarely good or fresh, but they were delicious and I will definitely order more next time. This is the best restaurant I have had since long time. Can’t wait to go back to try everything ! oh also…th...
The food here is good if you're looking to try some interesting, unusual flavors, though on the pricey side. In all the dishes we ordered except the rice, Jannah employs sweet and savory flavors. The kelecha, ostensibly an appetizer, is delicious, but it's served cold and it's sweet. Apparently without the cheese, it's served as a dessert, so this makes sense. The lamb phyllo was crispy and tasty, but I much preferred it without sauce, which was far too sweet for my liking. The lamb shank was falling off the bone, as it should, and it was very satisfying. The surprise hit was the Lebanese wine, which paired well with my lamb-heavy meal. And the service was absolutely outstanding.
All I gotta say is: holy guacamole. I love this place. I just moved into the neighborhood and we found this place while walking around- the people who work there are so nice, but really it's the food. I love the food. Their mezza platter is great; the hummus taste delicious BUT the mama ganoush? I could eat it every day for the rest of my life. It's super affordable and definitely not a chain restaurant. I'm proud to be supporting this SF restaurant and will be coming here often
This by far was the best middle eastern dish I've had on the US so far. It is not meditranian, it is a genuine Iraqi restaurant,even the hummus is different from the Lebanese one. I asked for medium lamb kebabs, they were pleasantly medium, and more importantly the lamb was marinated super professionally, that there was no trace of the lamb smell there. Thnks for this wonderful dish.

Cute, family owned restaurant with a decent middle Eastern offering on the menu. Amazing service and dishes came out fast with good portion sizes. I didn’t find the food as authentic as I expected seemed to have been changed for the American palette. Overall, still left satisfied with a full belly!
I was treated to a twelve course dinner selected by a friend who selected the menu. Particularly enjoyed the Kalesha, grilled eggplant, falafel pizza and knafeh. Staff was very attentive and added bonus easy street parking Sunday evening. Looking forward to a return visit
I’ve been here three times for events, and the food, the flavors, the presentation, and the service have been uniformly great. I’m from out of town, but if I were a resident, this place would be high on my regular go to list.
I never knew there was such an Iraqi restaurant in the city. I was excited when my friend and I came and I realized it was Iraqi as I am Iraqi...
