Terrible service- double and triple charged

by CSMobileUser

Medjool has a warm and inviting atmosphere, but I was disappointed with service from the moment we sat down. One person in our party was served 20 minutes after everyone else. One person was charged twice and one person was charged more than five times what she signed for on the receipt. The management and owner was unapolegetic- and wasted precious vacation time to get things rectified. Truly disappointing. Don't waste your time or money.

rooftop is fun

by CCAstudent

Had drinks here with friends- it was pretty nice and there was a great view of the Mission craziness below but food and drinks are spendy.

• Pros: great view
• Cons: too expensive

Rooftop

by mmicahk

I've only been here once for an event on the rooftop and it was a rare warm night in the city. Great place for food and drinks. Mint mojitos were really good.

• Pros: Great on a hot summer night.
• Cons: none.

great view

by tobiaspeggs

side step the hipsters and head to the roof top - best view in town, great crowd. lovely. best time of year to come is the fall when the warm nights are with us, and you can just hang out outside and soak up san francisco.

• Pros: best view in town
• Cons: mission if full of hispters

Great place

by Bob101

Nice eatery, I come here once in a while to catch the view. They also have great service, and fine dining in the evenings. Especially great on a warm day.

• Pros: Great place, nice view
• Cons: none

marina in the mission

by zhentest

great place to hang out for drinks and light tapas. Especially enjoy the roof bar which can get incredibly crowded on fridays and saturday evenings. The music isn't too bad also. I would recommend medjool as an early evening spot to hang out, and if you crave something different, head out to brunos or skylark.

• Pros: roof bar
• Cons: price

A Middle Eastern take on the bar-restaurant hybrid perks up the Mission dining scene.

by Contributor

The Scene
With hanging glass lamps and vibrant orange-and-gold walls, this vast open-air room brings a touch of Middle Eastern exoticism to the happening Mission strip. The bar area is strewn with clutches of low-slung chairs and couches, which are perfect for happy hour nibbles. In addition to a traditional dining area further back, an upstairs lounge offers even more seating.

The Food
The small-plates menu takes inspiration from all over the Mediterranean. The appetizer sampler has a special emphasis on the Middle Eastern tradition, with textbook renditions of baba ghanoush, tabbouleh and hummus. A distinct Northern African element is apparent in the harissa-crusted hangar steak and the chicken with almond-pomegranate sauce. But the best dishes have a California influence, such as the Moroccan b'stilla, layered with phyllo, goat cheese and grilled vegetables.

AWESOME!!!!! I'LL BE BACK.

by mirandad

CAME IN HERE YESTERDAY TO CHECK OUT THE SKY TERRACE. AMAZING VIEW!!!! (AND IN THE MISSION, I MIGHT ADD) DECENT COCKTAILS. A BIT OVERPRICED, BUT GOOD. IT GOT A BIT COLD SO WE WERE GOING TO HEAD DOWN TO EL FARALITO FOR SOME BURROS, THEN WE DECIDED TO EAT AT THE RESTAURANT DOWNSTAIRS. HOSTESS WAS REALLY SWEET. WE DIDN'T HAVE A RESERVATION, BUT SEEING THAT IT WAS COMPLETELY EMPTY, WE WERE PROMPTLY SEATED. THEIR MENU IS PRETTY EXTENSIVE. OUR WAITRESS WAS ADORABLE. VERY SWEET. SHE RECOMMENDED SOME GREAT DISHES. WE GOT THE LAMB TAJIN, BRUSHETTA, HALIBUT, AND SOME GOAT CHEESE THING THAT WAS DELISIOSO!! PLATES WERE REALLY small,( ASIDE FROM THE LAMB,THAT IS. ) BUT I GUESS THAT'S WHAT TAPAS ARE RIGHT? WE ORDERED JUST THE RIGHT AMOUNT FOR TWO, WITHOUT BEING PUSHED TO BUY MORE, LIKE SOME OTHER TAPAS PLACES.(THAT'S ANOTHER REVIEW ALTOGETHER). FOR DESSERT...CHEESECAKE...ONE WORD...DIVINE. I WILL DEFINITELY BE BACK. MAYBE ON A FRIDAY OR SATURDAY, WHEN THERE'S MORE ACTION.(side note: this place is MASSIVE. it's like five floors, with a little hotel in the middle. really cool.)

Drinks Only

by enserio

Whatever you do...no matter how hungry you are- DO NOT order any food! Whatever it is will be cold (unless it's supposed to be, in which case it will be warm), tiny in proportion to what is described,

I'm not saying a chic small portion, I'm talking about an ounce of poor grade Ahi cut into a $12 appetizer and dry as sandpaper, poorly seasoned, and poorly presented.
