"As someone who’s been to Greece and had plenty of Souvlaki in all kinds of places, the Souvlaki in a warm pita we had at Lucky’s Souvlaki’s was the pinnacle of fast food, in my opinion, and easily the best I’ve ever had. It just had the perfect combination of crunch and taste, melting in your month after that first carnivorous bite."

Recommended by Michelin Guide and 3 other food critics.
"Zeus himself would be satisfied after a soul-warming meal at this Greek favorite, which serves up San Francisco chic with a side of old-world taverna hospitality. Kokkari's sophisticated menu leans heavily on the wood grill and rotisserie, which produce smoky souvlaki with warm pita and tangy chickpea salad."
