Food was really good. I went in expecting typical Mediterranean wraps kind of food. But they really took it to the next level. Had a beef kabob wrap that was terrific. The wrap was moist and a bit chewy like a great burrito. The meat was very juicy and soft. Even the veggies inside the wrap were notably yummy. Hummus was fantastic too. Definitely worth a visit.
Some the best Mediterranean food I've had
Mom and I had dinner and the food was DELICIOUS. We got the chicken wrap and beef kebab plate. Even the sauces are house made, and space is very clean. Only wish the plate portions were a bit larger, there were some plants both inside and out, and a warmer atmosphere, but that’s my preference.
Owners were super friendly and hospital, we didn’t realize they closed at 8 but they let us stay without any rush!! Definitely coming back again. It’s unfortunate...read full review

Cafe Istanbul offers a delicious meze plate and tasty kabob dishes, including a lamb plate with hummus, salad, and rice. The restaurant is known for its fresh and delicious food, with good vegetarian choices available. The baklava and Turkish coffee are not to be missed; the baklava, in particular, is rolled in a unique way that surprises customers. Located near a Lucid car shop, the restaurant is also close to the Milbrae Caltrain and Bart stations, making it an excellent choice for those dropping off or waiting to pick someone up at the San Francisco International airport. The restaurant features a nice outdoor seating area where customers can enjoy well-presented food alongside a spicy chili sauce. The owner is super nice and passionate about her business, adding to the inviting atmosphere. Cafe Istanbul is a great dining option when staying at nearby hotels like the Aloft or Westin, and it is a must-visit for anyone craving bold and authentic flavors.
