It may have the look of a 'fast food's but I assure you it's anything but. I showed up a little early meeting a friend and they were totally cool and understanding even though they were busy. When it came time to order and it took a few min. They said, and I quote 'perfection takes time'. I got crispy ck salad, my friend had a stuffed pita. I wanted to eat both. I only withheld the 5 stars because last time I got the ck. Salad I could cut it with the plastic fork, last night maybe a little on the crispy side but the flavor was still there. My friend and I inadvertently closed the place down, you know how it gets when you have great conversation, not a peep from the staff no ' hey we're closing' they just asked us if we needed anything else and let us enjoy a breezy Richmond SF night. Going back first opportunity.😚

Excellent hummus, so creamy and tasty! Excellent falafels. Excellent exploded eggplant salad. Excellent fresh baked pita, soft and fluffy and hot out of the oven. I would come here every day if this place were in my home town!

Another delicious visit to Hummus Bodega. This time for a Kebab Pita Sandwich.

Always better when visiting with friends too.

One thing to note is the homeless encampment on the sidewalk at the corner of their building. Not a great experience outside at the street tables. But just move inside and you'll be fine.

Service was as expected and good.

The menus this time was poor. Why? Just slap your palm over most items because they weren't available. No falafel for lunch? Sad. No Shashuka at all? Almost a sin!!! Fortunate for me I am omnivorous.

But don't let the possible menu dings dissuade you from a visit. Hummus Bodega serves us good Kosher food, for what's left on the menu that they can still make and serve.

Hummus Bodega is a marvelous food spot to curb your Mediterranean appetite. Each bite of the food is simply a party for your taste buds. Apart from the taste, the awesome service, the huge portion sizes and the cheap price are simply great. A 10/10 recommend to anyone in the area. A must try eatery. An added bonus of options for vegetarians as well.

Hummus Bodega is a fantastic spot for delicious, authentic Middle Eastern cuisine. The food is made fresh and fast, ensuring that it arrives at your table still hot and flavorful. The portions are large and satisfying, making it a great value for the price. The hummus was particularly noteworthy - it was smooth and creamy with just the right amount of tanginess. Other menu items such as their fried eggplant and schnitzel were also delicious and packed with flavor. The atmosphere is casual and the staff is friendly and welcoming. All in all, I highly recommend Hummus Bodega for a delicious and satisfying meal.

This restaurant was amazing. We randomly found it and I am glad we did. The staff was nice and recommended us great dishes. Food was great and fast. The place was rustic but it has a good street food vibe. I really recommend it. Good for vegetarians too. Food was so yummy!

TL;DR: Great food and splendid service make visiting Hummus Bodega an easy decision.

After scanning the menu, I ordered 5pcs of falafel and Israeli chopped salad; my total was about $11. The prices for the sides are in a comfortable range (everything else is kinda pricey) and there are lots of seats. If you're dining in, you can sit anywhere you want and your food will be brought to you, but it looks like you're supposed to bring the tray back yourself.

When the order was brought to me, it included two pieces of additional falafel on the house, because I "was a nice customer." The fried falafel pieces were in a little frying basket and the salad was in a little pot-looking bowl. There were also two bottles, one filled with tahini and one with lemon and olive oil dressing, and everything came in a tray lined with parchment paper. Utensils and napkins were already on the tables.

The falafel was amazing—in fact, the best falafel I've ever had so far. The outside is perfectly browned and crisp, but the inside is super tender and almost melts in your mouth. The salad was refreshing. The succulent, cubed vegetables harmonized well together.

Overall, I highly recommend this fast-casual restaurant, especially if you like Mediterranean food. The prices are high, but if you just order sides, you can get a good, filling meal without spending much.
