Naadam Story

Naadam is a celebration of Mongolian fire, hospitality, and modern San Francisco.

Naadam: More Than a Festival

In Mongolia, Naadam is the summer gathering — wrestling, horse racing, archery, and long days of shared food. The festival is not only about sport; it's about gathering everyone around the table.

Our restaurant borrows that name because we want every night to feel like a small festival: warm, loud, generous.

From the Steppe to the City

Replace this with your own journey: the first memories of home-cooked soups, smoky stoves, winter evenings. The decision to bring those flavors to San Francisco and translate them for a new home.

Naadam is your bridge between two places — the steppe and the city — held together by a bowl of something hot.

Grills, searing heat, smoke. Most dishes touch the fire.
