Lokma: Reviews & Ratings

Had brunch here with 3 others. It was the first time for each of us (one person had been here for dinner, but not brunch) and we all loved it. I shared the Turkish Breakfast for Two with one of the others and we had a lot of leftovers for me to take home. Loved all the little dishes in appearance, variety, and deliciousness. There were both savory and sweet items offered in the variety and none of it felt heavy. Plenty of food and went well with my drip coffee and her Turkish coffee. My other two dining companions had the Turlu Omelette with an addition of avocado and the Lokma Burger done as a lettuce wrap. Their dishes looked wonderful as well and they were each happy with their choices. The patty in the burger was thick and juicy and the half avocado on top of the omelette looked perfect... absolutely beautiful with no brown spots at all and perfectly creamy. Outside of it being a bit on the pricey side, it was a wonderful experience with friendly service and great food.

I can't begin to tell you how many times I have loved this place. From the Turkish breakfast set to the fluffy pancakes, this corner gemstone in the Richmond is such a highlight every time I visit my friends by the beach. While it's a bit far from the Legion of Honor Museum, the restaurant is always bristling and bustling with a low hum of people chatting away about their comings and goings. The coffee is superb, the labneh is fresh and a little sour, and their service is very complimentary. Check it out if you want to sit outside and enjoy the post-pandemic parklets, as they can accommodate at least six people in your party.

First time ever trying mediterranean & turkish food! So delicious and way more of a healthier option compared to other cuisines around SF. My friend and I shared the trio sampler that came w 3 different sauces and pita bread, as well as the greek yogurt pancake. We also shared a turkish coffee too. It was delicious but for the price of $5.50 and the amount you get.... not worth. Everything was beautiful and we were both very full at the end. Good service, nice ambiance. Limited seating inside but they do have some seating outside as well.

Lokma is a real neighborhood gem in the Richmond. My friend suggested it as our TGIF dinner spot and we shared the citrus salad, trio of spreads, manti and lamb chops. All of the dishes were fabulous. I highly recommend the spreads to start. I was licking the spreads with my spoon even after we ran out of pita bread. It was that good. The lamb chops were cooked perfectly medium rare and the manti were fantastic mini-dumplings. The portion size is on the generous side so bring an appetite. Service was excellent and attentive. Food came out quickly. The restaurant is nice and cozy. Nite that it can get loud. With tax and tip, this was around $70 per person - it's great value. Highly, highly recommended.

I wish I lived closer to here because the food was SO good! I came on a Sunday late morning with my brother and this place was PACKED. We waited for a while and got seated outside (nice day). The Turkish breakfast was stellar and a must-get -- quite comparable to Troya's set, but at a better price point. I loved the nuttiness of the spreads, the olives were tasty, the honey and cream was delightful, and so nicely balanced with the tomatos/cucumbers. Also the sujuk in the scrambled eggs is brilliant -- savory and creamy. We also got a grilled chicken sandwich, which had a nice tzatziki sauce, tender chicken, and crispy potatoes. We also got orange juice and Turkish coffee which were perfect complements. Plenty of food for two and we left super satisfied. The only downside was that it was so busy that the food took a relatively long time to come out. But I'd say if you're having a lazy Sunday, it's worth it.

Lokma is a super yummy spot in the outer richmond. I will say, even though its a bit out of the wya, somehow there's a really long line, so definitely recommend making a reservation or signing up on the waitlist. We got the platter for two people (subbing meat for potatoes), and a side of the greek yogurt pancakes. Honestly the dairy here goes SO hard, it's so tangy and delicious and the honey wasn't too sweet / realllllly nutty. Highly recommend it to anyone

My friend treated me to Lokma for my birthday. I thought the food was just OK. The burger and the pita and spread were my favorite. The chicken on a plate of rice was bland and tasted like your typical tech company food. Service was a bit slow on a Tuesday. The restaurant is decorated nicely and gave a homey vibe. I know my husbands been wanting to try this spot so will give it another chance another time.

The restaurant is not too small or very big, so making a reservation online can help. The food was a bit pricey but delicious: - Bal & Kaymak (honey, clotted cream, and pita, $8) - Turlu & Cous Cous (Turkish ratatouille, pearl couscous, $23) - Karniyarik (eggplant and saffron rice, $25) - Branzino (fish, $35) The ones I enjoyed the most were the branzino and pita bread. The branzino was cooked really well, soft and flaky. The pita paired well with the clotted cream and honey, creamy and sweet.
