Executive chef /owner : RAFIK BOUZIDI

Coming from a small country in North Africa, Tunisia, and after working in the culinary scene, in both San Francisco and Las Vegas for about 20 years, he realized the lack of people's knowledge of his country and its rich culture and fascinating cuisine . when time came to start his own business RAFIK decided to chose the high road by paying an homage to this world's unknown cuisine by mixing the mediterranean sea flavors with the desert vibes, topped with a sophisticated touch.

Gola restaurant is a modern take of the Tunisian cuisine. Its goal is to bring these new diverse, old flavors to the San Francisco food scene. When using local ingredients combined with Tunisian spices, the result is magical .
