37 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Burlingame

“Society Restaurant & Hookah Lounge is one of our favorite spots! The place looks amazing—really luxurious and classy. The food is always on point, and the hookah is the best we’ve had. What keeps us coming back is the service. Everyone there is super friendly, from the staff to the owner and manager. They always make sure we’re taken care of and having a great time. 5 stars for sure!“

“I really love this place! The food is just delectable and yummy! I recommend the combo appetizer plate and the combo meat plate for two people to share. It will allow you to sample everything and still be content. I wish one thing they did differently was double the pita bread serving for the appetizer plate. That’s the only con. The service is quick and friendly. The restaurant is very modern and airy.“

“Everything i ordered (mansaf, veggie plate, chick shawerma, dolma, tabbouleh) was ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. And the aish elsraya was 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥. I’m going back for more. Great service, too.“

“We got a combo doner (gyro) wrap. I am picky about doner, it is very hard for me to like if it is not really good. But this doner was amazing! Juicy, well cooked, tasty. No additional sauce in the wrap, just like the real Turkish doner! I highly recommend this place. And I’ll definitely try the other meal options in the future.“

“Came here yesterday for iftar to break our fast, they gave us some dates to start with water, and made sure our food would be ready at iftar time. They are family owned, friendly people and delicious red lentil soup.

Would come again :)

Vegetarian options: Red lentil soup (shorba)“

“Very clean inside, friendly staff and comfortable seating. (Outdoor as well) The food was fresh and perfectly prepared. We really enjoyed our appetizer and dinner plate that we shared. It was so nice out and the windows were open. Just a lovely, relaxing dinner without spending tons of money.“

“great service from the staff , good food , good ambience“

“What a wonderful place. We stopped for lunch there on the way from San Francisco to Santa Cruz and it was so good. We stopped again for lunch. The next day coming back. The owner, host, is a gem. The food is fantastic. The whole Bronzino is enough for two and a great deal and really fresh fish done perfectly. Also, the appetizer sampler is a real joy. And the lentil soup is the best that we’ve ever had. Same for the spanakopita. Good Prosecco! Turkish coffee tops it all off perfectly with some baklava. This is our spot from now on when we’re passing through half Moon Bay.“

“The best food i have ever have. The Kurdish guy was very very very extra very kind. When he knew that I am from Kuwait and spoke Arabic, he invited me to have tea and kunafa with ice cream and stuffed with saffron. The kunafa was very delicious. I really recommend this restaurant.“

“Great tasting authentic Middle Eastern cuisine. Owners from Gaza Strip originally.“

“Very Nice staff and very clean kitchen and they always treat ME LIKE FAMILY WHEN I COME IN. I recommend this place and its a great addition to our community. Love Teena“

“Their tilapia fillet is excellent. Gyros is good. Best baklava. Staff are friendly, cordial, polite and professional. As soon as we walked in, they recognized us.“

“The best lamb gyro and chicken kebab we ever had. The chicken kebab was perfectly spiced and really juicy. The lamb tasted really good. The dip that the waitress recommended was excellent. The waitress was really nice. She gave us another plate of pita without charging us! She is so friendly and has a very nice smile!!!“

“Food: only ordered vegetarian food and everything was amazing. Falafel was probably the softest I have ever had so far and the mezze sampler was also quite good. I'll recommend starting off with sampler and ordering anything you like as a separate dip. Street fries were also good. They have unlimited tea and the mint lemonade was super refreshing.

Service: this place has minimal interaction with servers as every table has a QR code to order food and pay when you order.

Atmosphere: divided into 3 parts outdoor, indoor and patio. Indoors is bright with open kitchen and patio is dark with plants, string lights and heaters. Sat in patio and loved the vibe.“

“Our first time eating at this restaurant.
The Cashier welcomed us in and waited patiently for us to order. He answered our questions regarding food on the menu. The waiter brought our food came came to us quickly. No wait time. Very friendly and clean environment.“

“We travelled from Maryland to experience San Francisco, found this local restaurant within walking distance of our hotel, and decided to give it a try. It was well worth it! 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!“

“Zadna is wonderful.The food is absolutely delicious and the people are fabulous. Please make sure to support them.They deserve it.“

“The kebabs were so good, I don't think I've ever had kebabs that even came close to these. We came in kind of late but they were still friendly and served us a lovely meal. The hummus was flavorful and had depth, usually garlic is overpowering but not here. Even the dressing on the salad was delicious. I wish we lived closer.“

“This restaurant is close to the Milbrae Caltrain and Bart stations and the San Francisco International airport. It's an excellent choice for having food when dropping or waiting to pick up someone at the airport. The food is fresh and delicious There are good vegetarian choices.“

“Great food. The Kunafa is so nice, you'll order it twice.

The owner such a lovely and friendly person, constantly checking in to see if you're enjoying the meal.

Highly recommended, especially if you're looking for a halal place.“

“We started out with Hummus and pita from there we ordered dinner. We received so much food! I can’t imagine the one that said they didn’t get enough. I believe as full as we are, we secretly looking forward to our midnight munchies.
Thank you very much, The “

“ONE word "EXCELLENT". Great menu, love the murals, quick service, clean and they even serve beer and wine. parking is tricky so have patience. Garlic Fries, Hummus, Combo Gyro Plate!“

“Had lunch At Gourmet Gyros & Kebabs for the first time and can’t believe I’ve been missing out! The food is so fresh and delicious 🤤 including their desserts!!“

“Delicious, fresh ALWAYS food. Check out the hummus when made by the lady owner. It is the smoothest, most delicious I have ever eaten!“

“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..!!!!“

“Where do I start? First, I didn’t take pictures of the food because I already ate it 😅. The place (family market) is a nice corner store that sells everything from liquor to groceries with a kitchen attached (The big baba)! We tried their Philly cheese steak and it’s super tasty and filling! We tried the kofta plate and the chicken shawarma plate. The meats are great and the side fries are super tasty and crispy! Garlic fries is a bomb! Prices are fair, food is delicious, and quantities are big. Highly recommended! Will be back!“

“We ordered the house combo and it was very tasty. It came with 4 meats(chicken,beef,gyro ,koftedes). All of the meat was juicy,tender and well seasoned. The rice. was fluffy ans delicious. 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.“

“When it comes to Mediterranean food, Falafel Tazah truly stands out. I've been a loyal customer at all of their locations for over ten years, and I can honestly say I've never had a bad meal. Their chicken and veggie kabobs are my go-to favorites, and their falafels, hands down the best I've ever had. Their food certainly lives up to the name with that unmistakable fresh taste every single time.

The restaurant is always spotless and impeccably maintained, which adds to the whole experience. The owner is genuinely one of the friendliest people you'll meet and goes out of his way to make sure every customer leaves happy.

Keep up the amazing work, Team Falafel Tazah!“

“First time! Will definitely be back!!“

“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.“

“I was visiting the area and found this place on Maps near my hotel. WOW what a find! It was hard making a decision, because everything on the menu sounded great. I got a kefta kebab plate: 3 big pieces of kefta on yellow rice with roasted veggies. It came with a nice salad with lots of finely chopped Persian cucumbers, and a very generous dollop of hummus. And, of course, a lovely big pita. This made dinner last night and lunch today. So yummy. If you like spice, say YES to the hot sauce! Tangy and delicious.

Vegetarian options: Falafel, hummus, baba ganouj

Dietary restrictions: Halal meat“

“Would have been so much better if I could have gotten the extra tzatziki sauce I asked for. What a let down! I only wanted more tzatziki sauce. And I didn't get my fries on the side. Pay attention. People! Pay attention! I would review at an excellent rate had you provided me what I simply asked for.“

“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!“
