“We have dined at almost all Mediterranean restaurants in downtown Burlingame. The most outstanding in all categories is the Mediterranean kitchen on Lorton Avenue.
The location is most convenient and the Resturant atmosphere is most welcoming. From their humble Owner to each employee, each patron receives a warm and gracious welcoming.
The food and presentation is definitely five star in all aspects.
You truly feel the Mediterranean experience from the atmosphere to the delightful background music.
It is truly a great dining experience, both for lunch and dinner!“

Please give this place a try and you will love it too!“

The mixed green salad had tomatoes amd cucumber and was topped with a pickled cabbage and dressed to perfection. I only had a small bite of the pita because rhe meal was so filling. I can't wait to try the baklava we ordered. What a great find. I will definitely be going back to this restaurant.“

The staff was accommodating, attentive and very friendly. The food was exceptional! If you haven’t tried Mediterranean cuisine or love it, this is the place for you!“

“Really enjoyed Nomadic Kitchen in San Mateo! They feature a streamlined menu focused on heavy-hitting entrees and appetizers, which makes ordering easy because everything they do, they do right.

The hummus plate is an absolute must-have. It features incredibly creamy, delicious hummus topped with vibrant cabbage and pomegranate seeds. It is surrounded by a beautiful ring of rich, colorful sauces, dips, and pickles that pair perfectly with the basket of warm, homemade bread.

For the main course, the chicken kebab was a total hit. The chicken breast cubes are perfectly charred and incredibly tender. What really sets Nomadic Kitchen over the top is their beautiful plating and generous side options. The entree comes out beautifully arranged on a sleek black platter, complete with a fresh salad topped with pickled cabbage, a side of seasoned bulgur wheat, and a side of fluffy white rice. Having both rice options on one plate is a fantastic touch.

If the weather is nice, I highly recommend sitting out on the patio area to enjoy the beautiful San Mateo sun. The service was completely solid, friendly and fairly quick, and the prices are very reasonable for the quality of food you get. I will definitely be back.“

“The food here is absolutely delicious! I ordered the lamb shank, and it came with rice and a huge fresh salad. It was absolutely amazing.

I also ordered the baklava, and it’s honestly the best baklava I’ve had in the Bay Area so far.

I highly recommend trying the baklava and, of course, the lamb shank. Thanks for a fantastic mealI left very happy!“

“I’ve had such a good time at Zaytinya. It’s a perfect spot to meet up with friends or loved ones. Nice food along with wholesome atmosphere. I had a pup with me so having an outdoor space was so handy. Food was top notch. Salad with watermelon… steak.. oyster. Holly!!! Ridiculously delicious. If you want experience— ask the staff what’s chef most excited about. Be guru for a second. Chef Amiran the best! Thank you guys.“

“Excellent food, drinks and service.“

“Had a wonderful, fresh breakfast and a nice dinner at the restaurant in The Westin in Palo Alto. The breakfast I chose was the bar which included eggs, bacon, potatoes, and French toast. Cereal, coffee, OJ, and toast was available as well a 8 varieties of fruit.For dinner, I started with the cheese plate and finished with the Soleil Burger with Gilroy fries. Long Islands were outstanding. The cheese plate was excellent and served with toast. The burger was cooked to perfection with bacon and cheddar.“

“Outstanding on the food, just wow just amazing I give this place four stars. From the friendly service to the outstanding food. Great all around..!!!!“

“This is a very unique joint because it’s inside of a grocery store which made it unique, but the food itself was amazing. We were here from out of town in the Central Valley and the reviews were very good so we took a chance and we were very happy. The grocery store itself was amazing. They had some items that we can’t find back home so we did some grocery shopping as well. I would highly recommend this place two thumbs up.“

“There is no shortage of Mediterranean restaurants in the Bay Area. This is the only one to which I have paid three visits in one month.

The spanakopita has sesame seeds on it. This is new and delightful for me.

And oh my goodness, do you get a lot of food for your price point.

I couldn’t even wait to take photos for my review, I just started eating this thing as soon as I got home.“

“Came here on Saturday 7/26, and the service was so friendly I had to review! Both register and kitchen staff were friendly and attentive. They were also proactive for service opportunities. Definitely the best Nick the Greek I’ve ever been to. And extremely clean bathroom!“

“Ever since I walked into this restaurant, I instantly fell in love. The clean, healthy, tasty, perfectly portioned sized, and masterly prepared dishes by Ali, and his friendly staff, keep me coming back. My new favorites are the lentil soup, and lamb shank (limited menu special). Satisfying food experience I highly recommend.“

“Comida Grega, muito bem temperada, no ponto certo. Para mim, claro! Parabéns!“

“Amazing atmosphere, delicious food, great Turkish tea, and really good hookah. Everything we tried was fresh and flavorful, and the vibe of the place was very cozy and stylish. Our waiter Ayaz was very friendly, attentive, and really listened to our preferences and requests. Definitely a great spot for a relaxing evening“

“5 STARS! No BS corporate Olive Garden here! Calzone's my fave. Few Italian spots make'm nowadays. Bread's pillow soft. Mushrooms & tomatoes retain a lotta H2O. I've had some watery ones from other restaurants that spilled out when cut open in the past. Theirs is legit. Customize your own, but the 1 on the menu's fabulous as is. They make their own herb focaccia! Ordering mouthwatering meatballs a la carte is a must! Pastas, paninis, open face, salads, rotisserie chx, ribs, draft beer, wine, delivery, takeout, etc. Perfect place to take your loved ones/friends who'd appreciate the art & hard work the staff serves up so quickly!“

“It’s a Greek restaurant. I wanted to get something healthy so I ate a Salad for 5$. It was nice and made me full for my lunch. Packed with healthy lettuce, tomato and other 🥗. The place was super clean. Indoor Outdoor seating both available. The servers were friendly, attentive and hard working. Most of the food is in the range of 12$+ for one person. Attaching pictures for reference.“

“The red and green sauce are off the hook!“

“The food was outstanding, and Chef Freddy prepared everything exceptionally well. The atmosphere was friendly and welcoming. My order was ready in less than 15 minutes, which made the service both fast and efficient. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for delicious mediterranean food and excellent customer service.“

“We had a nice lunch outside at Anatolian Kitchen. We shared one app and had wraps. The wraps are very large, cut in half, and could be shared by two if not overly hungry. Both the lamb and the chicken were tasty. Two of us enjoyed mocktail Margaritas and we all ended with cappuccinos. Nice service on a sunny day (but outside tables mostly in shade).“

“Bahche made our day out on a warm sunny day, even better! We came to Field Works to watch the England vs. Croatia game, and since they are in partnership with Bahche, the food was brought straight to our table! Super fresh, warm and ready to munch by all at the table! The ceviche was super juicy and tasty, the shrimp, fish and octopus was absolutely delicious. The beef and chicken skewers had just the right marinate and grill marks that made us feel outdoors, as if they were grilled right beside us. All around excellent experience for myself my brother and our friends. Anybody visiting this area needs to visit Bahche, it’s super convenient to get to between El Camino and 101-S in a super nice renewed area of Hillsdale/San Mateo. Their baklava with ice cream topped off the amazing experience and it was to our liking. I must call out their attention to detail, check out my photo of the baklava. How they place it even for a to-go packaging! Awesome and well recommended!“

“Good food, reasonable prices, friendly staff quick service and groovy music“

“Oren's hummus offers authentic Israeli hummus in a convenient spot in Palo Alto. Service is quick and efficient

Reccomend the lamb kebabs with rice, they were really juicy and had a deep lamb flavour which paired well with the fragrant rice“

“Oh my goodness. Such a gem in the rough. Amazing food in the middle of an industrial area. I'm an old fat white guy, and the meal defeated me. For the first time in a long time, I needed a doggy bag. The Shawarma were delicious as were the pickled veggies and cole slaw. The Arabic coffee was to die for. So rich and thick!“

“Good food!!!! Close to my house 🏠“

“Chai is great, tastes basically as good as Coupa's“

“Amazing food, excellent service, family owned and run local restaurant that is consistently fresh and delicious with huge portions! Love this place!“

“Excellent food options and they also have a great drinks menu. The hookah lounge is outside and separated from the dining area so it doesn’t bother non-smokers. The watermelon cocktail is the best fancy drink I’ve seen here and is a must try! 🍉
The food ordering is through mobile and is really easy. The servers helped us to pack the entire food in a to-go-box and were very quick.“

“We’re going for burritos and detoured to Nicks to ask if they have spanikopta. Affirmative so in came. Food is amazingly good, fresh, tasty, perfectly spiced.
Bravo! We’ll be back!! Chef’s kiss and btw, Jackie is a doll! She is so graceful 😊“
