50 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Los Altos

“We have ordered only twice so far. The Greek salad is spectacularly good, as was the Adana wrap; and we enjoyed the Vegetarian Combo. The shawarma chicken on the Greek salad with chicken item was tough and chewy; and had little flavor, as if it had been left over from a day or two ago--most disappointing as I had read reviews praising it.“

“Very good Turkisk food, great outdoor seating front and back, and always friendly staff. State St. has some of the best restaurants in beautiful Los Altos!“

“Everything! It's a flawless dining experience.“

“Had lunch here yesterday while passing through the area, the mushroom pide was out of this world. The pastry/crust was unbelievably fresh and the flavor was delicious! Our server Umut was super friendly and attentive. Positive experience all around!“

“I recommend them for their hospitality, great food and service. Quick to serve!“

“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.“

Thank you very much, The “

“I recently had the pleasure of trying the kebab here, and I must say, it was exceptional! The kebab was incredibly juicy and fresh, bursting with flavor. Every bite was a delight. The quality of the ingredients really stood out, and the seasoning was spot on. I'll definitely be back again for more! Highly recommended for anyone craving a delicious kebab.“

"I recently tried the burger at Pizza +, and it was fantastic! The patty was juicy, perfectly cooked, and full of flavor, and the toppings complemented it perfectly. I wasn’t expecting such a great burger from a pizza place, but they truly delivered. Highly recommend giving it a try if you're in the area!"“

“What a gem and food was so generous and good quality! Owner Jonathan and staff are amazing! Treat you like family even tho it was my first visit. Offered to let me try so many small sides on the house just so I could try more items on the menu. If eaten immediately at the restaurant, everything was crispy and seasoned perfectly, not greasy at all. Will be back and definitely recommending to friends.

Businesses like this is what make the bay amazing!“

“good food and helpful service“

“Great food. Quick. Friendly staff. Convenient location.“

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

“We booked a large group meeting (20 people) that grew to 28 people. The team handled the change quickly and we never really had any delays. I felt bad that the server didn't have much help but she did a great job and I really appreciated her hard work. Food was good as always, especially the steak skewers appetizers. Many got the large steak and said it was so good. Thanks for allowing us to have our group dinner there - we had a great time and look forward to the next time!“

“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.“

“Tasty and healthy food at the right price. I ate here twice after hiking in Palo Alto and one of the best wraps I have ever had“

“Wow! My new all-time favorite Mediterranean restaurant. As soon as you walk in the aromas from the kitchen are just astonishing. The space is warm and welcoming. Even on the Wednesday after Thanksgiving, it was filled with happy people sitting at the bar and tables eating and enjoying camaraderie. Since it was my first time, I ordered the six side dish sampler and every single one was phenomenal. The hummus is a garlicky herbed slice of heaven. The baba ghanoush is without a doubt the best I have ever tasted. Then there was an eggplant dish with maple syrup and pomegranate seeds that just explodes with deliciousness. I had the beet salad with goat cheese and it's just delightful. Since I was alone, I was limited as to how many items I could try, but I cannot wait to come back with my family and order up a storm! Thank you Tamra Mediterranean grill for a truly exceptional dining experience.“

“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.“

“Really cool place. The food is real quality, so many options.

However they won't add hummus or babba to a wrap, blame the manager. With a full deli on steroids and the ability to sell you any portion size on the side. It's very disheartening.

But this place is amazing. I would come back and really recommend it“

“Absolutely exquisite food that comes out fresh. Service was amazing & the people even though busy were very very helpful. Can't recommend this place & food enough.“

“I fully enjoy every time I come to cafe 220 and often bring a friend. Their spanakopita plate tastes as good as it looks- I highly recommend! The staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming. I also really appreciated how my friend and I were given some tiny cups of tea on the house without us asking for them! They did this for me and another friend on a different occasion too so it seems like they regularly give complimentary tea if they can tell you’re staying to chat a bit longer. I will continue coming back and recommending to friends. Surprised they don’t have a higher rating!“

“Excellent food, drinks and service.“

“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“

“Excellent meal was had at this restaurant. Service was very good, food was great, portions were generous. Have to go highly recommend.“

“This place is very affordable and the food is delicious. We always like to come here with our friends and sometimes we have to be quick otherwise all tables are full! What I would improve, and I've been thinking about this every time I come here, is definitely the ACOUSTICS! Every time the sound is very lous and you can barely hear the next person talking! Especially when it's full. I would recommend some wall acoustic panels for the TV wall. There are nowadays very modern and affordable solutions for acoustic paneling.“

“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 veggie burger. Will go back.“

“We love this place — incredibly impressed without exception. Delicious and flavorful food, a really fun back patio with a delightful waterfall and other sweet decorations, and unfailing fantastic service. Highly recommend (for lunch or dinner), including a sophisticated atmosphere for special occasions“

“Best Sabich!!! Their Pita taste good!!! Staff are polite. Quick service!“

“Visited Anatolian kitchen for a birthday dinner. The place is located on California Ave. It is a cozy place. The food and service is very good. I tried the adana kebab and lamb shish kabab, both were amazing. Certainly looking forward to visiting next time.“

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