Oasis Grill

Excellent Mediterranean food in the financial district. I have tried their chicken shawarma, kebab and salads and all of them were very good.

The food is an excellent, The meat and chicken shawarma and Falafel is delicious, Sandwich great, I would recommend this restaurant certainly

Awesomefood. I work around the block from this place. Thier wraps are always amazing. It gets realbusy around lunch time, so arrive early or come later. A littlesteep for a wrap at $9, but it's a loaded meal.

Fairly good food, but unreasonable prices.

Visited SF a couple of times over the past few months and stayed at the Hyatt across the street. Much to my surprise and happiness I didn't have to go far to find something halal. Tried the Shawarma and Gyro, which I really enjoyed. Had a Shish Taouk Chicken plate, which I didn't like as much. The people working when I went were nice and friendly. After a couple of days of going they recognized me by face. No place to really sit down and eat so more of a take out place. But overall very good value if you stick with the wraps and sandwiches. Will definitively visit again in my future trips to the city.

I'm very satisfied with oasis so far..i've been here a few times trying different thgs and none had ever been disappointing..careful with the lamb menu as the lamb is not always halal,ask before ordering..if it's clear that you're muslim,the guys there will tell you to change your order..i appreciate their service..quite fast although the line during lunch hours are quite long..buy its the best halal place near embarcadero!

Salam, The Shawarmas here are very good. I work about 10 minutes from here and find myself eating here often. The Kefta and Chicken Shawarmas are excellent. Muslims and Non-Muslims eat and enjoy the food here.

Went here the other day. The only Halaal place it seems in and around the embarcadero area. Chicken Shawerma is very good. Service is friendly and quick. Note: the line and wait time at lunch is unreal; it wraps around out the establishment and in front of the nearby Walgreens. Still, if you're looking for good food, it is worth the wait!

The only halal place within a 5 minute walk of my office. I'm a weekly visitor and the food is the reason. I can confirm that the chicken and the kefta are halal. Order the chicken shawerma spicy and you will walk away one happy muslim.

I visited this place a couple of days ago during Ramadan and asked if the food is Halal. Thr owner's brother was working there (and he was fasting at the time) and he told me ONLY the chicken is- therefore, the beef and other meats are not. I've decided not to eat there as there is a risk of cross-contamination between the cooking utensils used for the chicken and beef.

One of the few halal joints in SF Financial district. Gyros is the usual crappy frozen processed MSG loaded stuff. Stay away from it. Chicken sandwiches are good. Check if the cheese in chicken melt is halal.

The line for weekday lunch stretches quite far, so I am inclined to believe they are equipped to serve high volumes. But I came for lunch on a Sunday afternoon, and there were only a couple other customers in this little take-out spot. $11 Chicken Shawarma - chicken with tahini, lettuce, tomatoes & topped with garlic sauce, wrapped in lavash: The wrap was huge and satisfied my hunger. However, I have learned that I am not the biggest fan of lavash. I would have preferred it wrapped in something softer, like a pita. But that's more of a personal preference. The chicken was pretty juicy, but the sauce was dripping quite a bit, even though I kept the bottom wrapped in foil. $5.50 Baklava: Why is baklava always so expensive? I can't say no to it. This was especially flaky, crunchy, and sweet with the nutty pistachio flavor. I ate one piece and saved the rest in the fridge for Mr. Joy, and it was still pretty good a few hours later. Now I hate to say anything negative, especially if it's something that didn't happen to me. Another patron had placed an order online and he came in to ask if they had his order, and they insinuated that there aren't any online orders. A few minutes later, the manager emerged and said they did have his order ready, but the customer said frustratedly that he already canceled the order. The manager said he would give the customer a bad review for 'leaving the food.' This is just a classic case of miscommunication and both parties could have tried a little harder to clear things up. However, I do think that Oasis Grill could have been less lazy about checking their orders and make more of an effort to placate the annoyed customer. Though I thought the service could have been better (even though this didn't happen to me), I thought the food was alright. I will not return for a wrap, but should I ever end up at OG, I'll try a a skewer plate or some hummus instead.

Quick service, cook to order food. Tastes amazing and well priced for the amount you get. One other thing that impressed me the most was, as I walking out the door with my order, a person in need was asking the owner for some food, indicating he was hungry. Without hesitation, the owner turned around went in the restaurant, and started getting the person in need some food before I could react/respond. Awesome to see that! I will support this business as much as I can. By the time I got back, the person had food and was eating in front of the store. Very cool experience overall!

Going back into the office three days a week is tough. Well, at least I can eat at my old favorite restaurants around Fidi again. Oasis Grill is still around. I can't believe it. Most of Drumm st. feel abandoned. We got the beef shawarma wrap $17 and a vegan deluxe bowl $14. It didn't taste as good as before though. Still very good. My shawarma wrap had plenty of meat and had a lot of flavor. Good job everyone at Oasis Grill.

Great food and high-quality Shawarma and sish tawouk. Services pretty quick but the store itself is small. Friendly staff. Hot sauce is a must, some of the best in the Bay Area! Delicious and will definitely come again.

Had the beef shawarma. Tasted very good and the fries were simple and good! It did seem a bit expensive, I paid 30 bucks for myself for a place like this it seemed expensive. But downtown SF, i understand. The cashier and the cook were very nice! Would recommend!

Falafel Bliss and Shawarma Satisfaction! I participated in a multi-month professional training program in San Francisco's Financial District a few years ago. Weekend lunch options were limited, especially for those of us who preferred something beyond typical fast food. One day, someone recommended Oasis Grill during a lunchtime debate about where to grab a bite. It quickly became a favorite among us for the rest of the program. My office was nearby, so Oasis Grill became a go-to lunch spot for the following few years during my workweek. I particularly enjoyed the falafel and shawarma wraps. The shawarma offered a choice of beef, lamb, or chicken. My regular visits were abruptly interrupted by the pandemic. Then, last week, a craving for a falafel wrap led me back to Oasis Grill. Though the staff had changed, the place looked mostly unchanged. The staff quickly filled orders, and most importantly, the falafel wrap was just as tasty as I remembered! The wraps come in two sizes: regular and deluxe. The deluxe has a few extra items for a couple of dollars more, but the regular is just as satisfying. The store is very small, and there is no place to sit, but if you are looking for a takeout option, it is a very good option.

The gyro was really good! The ingredients used were fresh and the meat was full of flavor. They even added a little bit of spice within the gyro. The service was walk up and go, but they made the food fast on the spot. I would recommend!

Happy to give Oasis Grill a 5 star review! Excellent food! The gyro wrap was delicious and if you're an uncultured American like myself it's pronounce "year-o" lol. Manager/owner was very hospitable and gave us a sample of falafel while we waited (that was also delicious). This is a great spot to grab some fast and deliciouse Mediterranean street food to take back home or to your favorite spot. I'll for sure be back again for the gyro wrap.
