22 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Los Altos

“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!“

“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.“

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

“The vibes are pristine. The environment in the restaurant is bright, beautiful and genuinely welcoming. The food came relatively quickly, and every single item was fresh and genuinely made from scratch and with love. The hummus - and surprisingly given the restaurant’s name - was for me in many ways the star of the show. Every meat was cooked pretty impeccably.

I am personally not a fan of the positive of seasoning and salt. That underscores much of Mediterranean gastronomical persuasions, but respect the art enough to know that these guys will deliver. The servers were respectful and had a dutiful energy about them insofar as they seem to take pride and the commitment to good service. Was it the most excellent Mediterranean food I’ve ever had in my life? No. But if you’re in the area and you want a very memorable, aesthetic restaurant experience in a vibe-forward, sort of way, you have to pay them a visit.“

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

“I have to say, I’ve had quite a journey when it comes to my opinion of this place.

The fact of the matter is that I have found the following to hold true:

1. Redwood City is far away from everything
2. The parking situation is abysmal
3. There is never a table ready when you get there
4. The food is expensive

For these reasons I used to avoid going there- not because of the food quality but it wasn’t worth going there in lieu all these things.

That being said, their meat is great, the vibes are great, and their service is great. Their beef kofta is sublime, and I have to say their falafel isn’t too bad either. They also have a pretty good frozen date juice that I enjoyed.

If you don’t mind the 4 things I listed (I am personally starting to care less and less about them in lieu of the amazing food), definitely go. This is probably the best Arab food I’ve had in the Bay Area.“

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

“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.“

Everything we tried was incredibly fresh and flavorful. The ingredients tasted high-quality, and the portions were generous. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the service was excellent — friendly, attentive, and fast. Highly recommend this place for anyone who enjoys Mediterranean food!“

“Mardini's had a great selection of sandwiches, salads, burgers and falafel. I bought a chef salad and borrow the restroom. By the way the light switches are on the outside of the restroom. You Can Only Imagine and I had to find my way in the dark because I didn't know that.“

“Excellent food, drinks and service.“

“Welcoming atmosphere, very kind staff, and wonderful food!“

“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.“

“I’m not usually that kind of person that likes to leave reviews!! But this place is awesome �!! Great food, clean place, third time here and will definitely come back whenever I’m in the area .“

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

“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!!“

“I used to come here all the time years ago and just passed by the area again. Let me tell you not a single molecule of quality has been lost over the years. The falafel salad is a masterpiece. Whoever runs this place deserves their success - staying this loyal to the mission for this long ain't easy but they are dialed.“

“good food and helpful 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.“
