The Scene – Beyond the hotel lobby is an elegant, rectangular-shaped dining room dominated by cherry red chairs, leather banquettes and candles flickering atop cream-clothed tables. A four-seat bar is tucked into a far corner. Middle Eastern music tiptoes through the space as light pours through a stained glass section of the ceiling, illuminating framed photos of Yemen and Tibet. Bubbly waitresses sport head-to-toe black with colorful waist wraps. – – The Food – Chef Mohamed Aboghanem prepares the Yemeni cuisine of his childhood with a subtle Cal-European accent.…

Best of everything!

by tinschen

This is a true jewel among restaurants in SF! The Chef is a master of spices. The flavor of every dish was very well balanced but still had a nice exotic touch, very interesting for ones taste buds! The decoration on the ceiling and walls creates a very warm atmosphere. Staff is extremely attentative and friendly, they will explain everything to you, as there may be a few things that one may not be familiar with. Make sure you make a reservation. It is a must while in San Francisco!

Grrreat!

by Tanglewood

Located in the lobby of the Carlton Hotel where the wife and I were staying, we couldn't help but smell the wonderful aromas each night going up to our room. After a day of sightseeing we were too exhausted to leave the hotel so we thought, hey why not try Saha. We made an 8pm rez thru the Hotel and they sat us right away even though the place was pretty full. We started with a cabbage special that the waiter recommended, it was a cold appetizer that had rice, tomatoes,onions over a yogurt sauce...fantastic. So was the lamb and the vegan tofu special. If you crave unique middle eastern fusion food, go here, in fact stay upstairs the Hotel Carlton was pretty good as well.

  • Pros: great flavors,service
  • Cons: some seats are real close together to other parties

Fusion Fantastic

by revolvez

I've been to this restaurant a few times for dinner and I always come away with a delighted palette. It really is fusion food and while some of the flavors and ingredients are common to Arabic food, it is more of its own thing than anything else. 95% of the dishes are complex, beautiful, and fresh and include a lot of local ingredients. The meats are cooked perfectly and the zaatar is good in any of the plates they serve it with. I was surprised to see the "free glass of champagne" note on this site. I've never been offered one... However, the staff are all very pleasant. If you order "S..p Yo Mama", be patient so they cook it well. It is a fab desert but the phillo was very undercooked when served to us. Don't ask for the explanation of the origins of the name...
