Great gastro pub, very pleasant owners and staff. They hosted our charity event and were so accommodating and helpful! The food was amazing too, especially Bosnian burger.

Fantastic food, good Balkan wines and beers, lovely ambiance with all of the paintings highlighting how beautiful countries like Bosnia and Croatia are. Bud - a pianist who regularly plays is also awesome!
Wonderful private event at Bistro SF Grill last night. We hosted a benefit fundraiser at this lovely restaurant - seating 50 people in a very intimate setting. The staff was very professional and the food was excellent! Their wine list and beers are local to the Balkans which many of our guests enjoyed. We couldn't have pulled off such a smooth event without the owners helping and the servers being so attentive - they ensured all the guests had a great time and many are very eager to come back! We would highly recommend considering SF Bistro Grill for your next company event / fundraising event or whatever else you might need!
We had such a lovely dinner here this evening. We split the vegan mushroom risotto and the Adriatic plate. I got a glass of red wine from Croatia and my boyfriend got a Chardonnay from Argentina. Everything was absolutely delicious and came out very quickly. We'll absolutely be back again.
The restaurant is half market, half restaurant with refrigerators of pre portioned sides and meals (we got the paella to have for lunch tomorrow) and shelves of jarred spices, pickled snacks and a broad variety of wine from all over the world. The indoor seating is pretty compact, definitely call ahead for a party over 2 people or order to go (they price meals a few dollars cheaper if you're ordering take out).
Great Mediterranean/Balkan food. Definitely check it out!
Great place. Lots of diverse character. Amazing food. Everything from vegan, gluten free dishes to exotic meat burgers. Live music. Friendly, welcoming staff.
Pre-COVID, such a lovely restaurant with a lot of charm and delicious food. The owners and staff are welcoming, and the wine selection is amazing with some fun wine flight options. Often a pleasant live band in the evening. I always enjoyed going here.
During-COVID, a delightful neighborhood market with a wide selection of pantry goods, wine, pre-made delicacies and cooking items (many made in-house). Plus take-home meals provided at cost to support those in the neighborhood who might need some help. Truly a gem.
Highly recommend stopping by now, and in the future.
Great atmosphere and food. The only reason for 4 stars is the food could use a little more flavor. But the pictures do not do it justice we sat in the window and had a lovely cozy dinner. The wine list was great and they had bottle of wine deals. Our waiter was very attentive and he even sung along with the pianist beautifully.
I REALLY enjoyed the food! Me being a meat eater and my wife a vegan we have some struggles finding places to accommodate both of us. We didn't look any further when finding Bistro SF Grill. Everything from the starters to the entrees was very tasty and it would take multiple visits to try out this menu. To top it off we had live music. GOOD STUFF!!
Delicious food and friendly owner. Love their Balkan burger and baklava.
I love this place first and foremost for their vegan options, all of which are clearly marked on the menu. I'm a big fan of the vegan polenta, lentil curry burger, hummus plate, and asparagus. They also have a great selection of wine and beer, Turkish coffee, and regular live music. The atmosphere is cozy and old-world, and the waiters are charming and will remember you and welcome you back if you're a repeat customer, which is nice. If they had a vegan dessert option, this would be my dream restaurant.
Showed up without a reservation on a Saturday night and got bar seating, which was a blessing in disguise because of great conversation with the barkeep! $20 wine tasting was excellent, as was all the food we ordered. Ambience on point for date night with live music. And very reasonably priced.
Been here a few times already and this is my favorite place in Noe Valley. It's everything a neighborhood restaurant should be. The menu is very well done with great variety and something for everyone. Prices are very reasonable for SF. And the best part is the service, the folks running things make you feel like family.....we have always been made to feel really welcome here. Love it!
