This is got to be the best kept gourmet secret in town! In a city with great food at every corner at every price range, Ya Ya is my new favorite restaurant, hands down! The food, best categorized as somewhere between Middle Eastern and Mediterranean with many dishes similar to Moroccan, is amazingly flavorful! Ya Ya is the only place that I've ever had hummus I like! Their phyllos, a savory pastry filled with meat or veggie, is the best I've had in the city…so much better than that other pretentious place - whose name begins with "A" - that claims it as their specialty! The staff and owner, Ya Ya, are so much nicer and attentive too! The only surprise is the bill - you'll be shocked at how reasonable it is! Worried about parking? No problem, you can park in front of the restaurant in their loading zone, or if it's taken, they have free validated parking a few blocks away! Atmosphere? This is no “hole in the wall!” It’s tastefully decorated in warm hues with paintings of Mesopotamian. With it’s great food, romantic atmosphere, and friendly staff, Ya Ya is the perfect place to impress your date without going into debt!

everything is delicious and flavorful--it's a culinary exploration. as much as san francisco prides itself on being a culinary destination, the city is lacking in cuisines of many cultures--nigerian, carribean, indonesian, malaysian, creole, etc. the denizens need to encourage cuisine outside the italian, french, mediterranean monotony.
