“Excellent! Many fascinating choices, moussaka was light, excellent, beautifully presented. Combination mezze plate was excellent and elegant! Breads were perfect, fresh and and flavorful. Coffee was smooth, served in delicate ornate Turkish china. Staff was wonderful and excited to welcome us, help with any questions. A quiet place for a lovely family dinner!

“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.“

“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“

“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.“

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

“This place was an absolute lifesaver for late night eats back in college - after studying at Cañada College or the local Happy Donuts, coming here was our top dinner choice. Was delighted to find this week, visiting my hometown that Rockn Wraps is still indeed rockin’ in 2024. If anything, the food is even more amazing than it was back in those munchie college days. Soo good. Top notch quality, thoughtful presentation, perfect level of spice and their House Sauce is amazing over the entire Shawarma plate. Yum x 100!!“

“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 “

“I’ve been coming here weekly for years. Nur has a wide variety of tasty Turkish foods, from omelets & gyros & salmon salads to lamb kebabs & Nutella crepes. I highly recommend.

Vegetarian options: In addition to food in the vegetarian section, many items are vegetarian or vegan, or can be ordered vegetarian or vegan. The mousaka can be ordered vegan, removing the cheese. Vegetarian items include the veggie kebab and vegetable combo.

“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.“

“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!!“

“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.“

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

“I come here many times, it was always nice food but this time disappointed. Shawarma wasnt tazah( fresh) maybe from the previous day and too much white sauce in it. I got only 3 bites. I gave u 5 star this time coz l loved their food before.“

“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 was my first time trying this spot and as a first time costumer I went ahead and ordered the chicken Kobe something wrap. I switched the pickles to cucumbers and I must say THIS WAS THE BEST CHICKEN WRAP I EVER HAD IN MY ENTIRE LIFE!🤯🔥

Currently my daughter has 6 more months of Chemo to go and I’m really looking froward to have more chicken wraps for the upcoming visits 🙈“

“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“

“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.“

“First time! Will definitely be back!!“

“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 food, drinks and service.“

“Both the chicken gyro and the beef-lamb gyro are good. If you get the salad rather than the plate, the salad portion is about double the side salad in the plate entree. It like a Greek salad with olives and feta as well in addition to cucumber and tomato.

They have covered outdoor seating. Service is light but friendly - you order and pay inside and they give you a number and bring out the food to you when it's ready.“

“I figured I've been here enough times that it was time to give a positive review to Nick the Greek. The food is always consistently good, service spot on and a great to go option. Never had a miss here. I appreciate having the ability to order online and pickup onsite. Deseerts are really good too. It's our go to place when we figuring out between cook something or pick up something. We've leaned more towards picking up and Nick the Greek hasn't let us down.

Vegetarian options: There are falafel, hummus and plenty of vegetarian salad options.

Parking: I usually find parking behind. San Carlos in general has inadequate parking space.

Kid-friendliness: Kid friendly. Plenty of space and casual dining. Outdoor tables as well.“

“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.“

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

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

“Anatolian Kitchen sat us at 8:45 on a Thursday evening when most other nearby restaurant kitchens were closed. Service was exceptional, our cocktails, appetizers, and main courses were perfectly prepared and delicious. Thanks for the wonderful hospitality.“

“El mejor pollo de Redwood City 😋😋😋🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟“

“Las pizzas están bien ricas“

“The food is incredibly good, fresh and tasty. The service is excellent. The Village maze plate was fabulous and the portions are generous. The price is low compared to other restaurants in the area.“

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

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

“Service is a 4-star because Dee our server literally interrupted us like 8 times throughout our 1.5 hour dinner. She also can’t seem to read vibes that she’s interrupting and over-explaining and we really just want her to go away and continue our conversation ?“

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

“Great value and taste for the price, the greek salad has nice portion and the grilled chicken is tasty, as I usually say the rating is always considering the fact that this is a fast food place and not to be considered as a 4 star restaurant. But I would recommend if you are in a hurry and want to try something different and more healthy for a fast food.“
