    Very loud at 5pm. After work groups were very loud in bar and dinning area. Very hard to hear dinner partners. Food was very good and the server was very polite. Only problem, our salads were served and then 10 minutes later they brought out our main course. We had them take it back so we could finish our salad and not end up with a cold dinner plate. Will not be back.

    This event was for my son's Graduation June 15, 2025. It was also Father's Day. Most Venues are booked , I called SOMA per my son's recommendation. I spoke to RAMIN and was very cordial and accommodating. Gave me choice of going to OPEN table first if I am unsuccessful call him back. I was able to get reservation for 20 people but my head count is getting bigger. I called Ramin again and he assured me they can accommodate more than 20. The day came, guests started arriving earlier than reservation time and they were accommodated with no problem. Food was Excellent,Drinks are are satisfying,Server VEYSI was Super Fast and Friendly. We ALL had an AWESOME experience at SOMA. Will consider SOMA for future events.

    We ate here prior to seeing a show at the Golden Gate Theatre because it was close and the reviews looked pretty good as well as having a varied menu. Some of the food came out so fast that it was clear to us that they were just things being heated up-especially the meatballs. Also, some of us received our food right away and the rest of us did not get served until a good 15 or 20 minutes later. The Caesar salad was OK. The dressing was fine, but the lettuce was not fresh and had lots of brown spots. The drinks were really overpriced! Overall, it was convenient, but we would not return because the bill was very expensive and the food was just not very tasty or well prepared.

    Terrible service! Didn’t feel welcome when we arrived despite having a reservation. After our food came, the waiter never came back to check on us. We had to ask 3 times for more water. Will not be going back.
