A Taste of the Mediterranean
Fresh ingredients, time-honored recipes, and the warmth of a family kitchen — right in the heart of San Francisco.
Taboun is a family-owned Mediterranean gem nestled in San Francisco's Inner Sunset neighborhood, steps from UCSF Medical Center. For over seven years, we've been serving the community with love, tradition, and the finest fresh ingredients sourced daily.
From hand-rolled dolmas and freshly fried falafel to our legendary lamb-beef shawarma, every dish is crafted with care. Our recipes are rooted in Mediterranean tradition — bold flavors, wholesome ingredients, and the kind of warmth that makes you feel at home the moment you walk in.
Whether you're a UCSF doctor grabbing a quick lunch, a family celebrating together, or a first-time visitor — you'll leave full, happy, and wanting more.
