17 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Half Moon Bay

“This is exactly the type of establishment we were looking for - casual, warm, and with delicious food. Hassan and his team took care of me and my daughter. My vegetarian daughter had their amazing moussaka and dolma. And the rice pudding was out of this world!“

“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“

“Chicken souvlaki is surprisingly really tender for chicken breast meat.

Get that above all else.

Also, I think the classic hummus is better than the harissa hummus. The combo plate was a good value, but wasn’t overly impressed by the gyro meat.“

“I found this place by chance when I was looking for something else to eat. I enjoy mediterranien food, but this place knocks it out of the park. The food, fantastic. The service, exceptional. If your looking for something better than the local greek fast food joint, this is the place.
10 out of 10, would recommend.“

“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.“

““Pizza is more than just food; it is a universal language of happiness. From the moment its aroma fills the air, it awakens a deep sense of anticipation and comfort. The golden, crispy crust tells a story of perfect balance, while the rich tomato sauce carries a bold yet familiar warmth. Melted cheese flows like a masterpiece, embracing every topping and uniting them in flawless harmony. Each bite is an unforgettable journey — crunchy, soft, savory, and deeply satisfying. Pizza has the power to bring people together, turn ordinary moments into celebrations, and remind us that true joy can be found in the simplest, most delicious pleasures of life.”“

“Nice local spot with really good food. I usually get the vegetarian Mousaka. It’s filling. I noticed that the lamb kabobs with pomegranate and rice over a bed of yogurt is also very well made. Nice cosy atmosphere for a meal and conversation.“

“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!“

“I love this restaurant so much, it’s the best on Burlingame Avenue! Their food has so much flavor and never misses. Their chicken yuro plate is so delicious! They always have great surface. You need to eat dinner here the next time you’re on the ave.“

“LOVE this place. The food presentations ! Always start with warm olives. Sunday: cognac hot toddy. The flavors in the salmon crudo (raw), grilled broccoli, chocolate yule log, the bartender's drinks and food descriptions are worth the wait to eat.“

“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..!!!!“

“First time! Will definitely be back!!“

“Simply amazing! Perfect seasoning and super flexible options. The seasoning level is lighter than most other places selling gyros which in my opinion makes it taste more authentic and let's you get more of a wholesome outdoor grill vibe from the food. This place serves organic meat too (⁠ﾉ⁠*⁠0⁠*⁠)⁠ﾉ

I asked for grilled vegetables (generous amounts of onions, pepper, tomato were provided) and fries instead of what's usually offered on the chicken gyros plate. 🤌🤌🤌“

“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.“

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

“Tonight, after a long and tiring day at work, I visited Society Restaurant & Hookah Lounge to relax—and it was the perfect choice. The place is beautiful, calming, and has such a great vibe with relaxing music. The staff were amazing: very kind, welcoming, and truly hospitable. They offer both indoor and outdoor seating; I personally love sitting outside, but since it was raining, I chose to sit inside and still had a wonderful experience. I highly recommend their kanafa and tea—they were incredibly delicious. This is a perfect spot to unwind, relax, and enjoy quality time. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“I had the Branzino and it was beautifully prepared and tasted amazing. My friend had the Paella and loved it. Overall, I really enjoyed the restaurant. The prices seem a little high, but the food was amazing so I wasn't too bothered to pay. Service was excellent. Cute up and coming area amidst the many new apartment buildings and corporate buildings. I'll be back.“
