“great place and nice food“

“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 .“

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

“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.“

“Wonderful Sunday lunch last week. The fried cauliflower florets starter was great. Nicely fried, not greasy with a good thick pesto labane sauce. We loved the muhamarra with the fried pita strips. Had some the next day and it was still fantastic. The chicken pita sandwich was good. My chickpea salad was tasty, but I wasn’t expecting the chickpeas to be so firm. The chocolate babka was great, not too sweet. The staff was attentive and the service was prompt. Nice atmosphere too, casual and welcoming.“

“I ordered my lunch from this place through Uber Eats, and the pork gyro was absolutely fantastic. It arrived hot and freshly made, with everything perfectly balanced — tender, well-seasoned meat wrapped in warm pita bread along with fresh tomatoes, onions, tzatziki, and fries. The portion size was just right — filling without feeling overly heavy. I really loved it and would definitely order again.

To finish the meal, I also tried their frozen yogurt with honey and baklava. The portion was a bit large for me, but the yogurt itself tasted genuinely like yogurt rather than being overly sweet or sugar-loaded. The addition of honey and baklava added a nice layer of flavor and richness. Next time, I might try the plain yogurt for a lighter option.

Update: went back for a gyro bowl. Very feeling and refreshing. Finished the meal with some Greek style donuts. They were warm and soft and very little on sweet, although soaked in syrup. A must try.“

“Las pizzas están bien ricas“

“New favorite restaurant! We went for Valentine's day, and I went again 2 days later. Definitely planning on making this a weekly restaurant. I love the kofta and the zaatar/cheese flatbread. I had the chocolate baklava, but plan on trying all of the desserts. The people who work there are really nice as well :)“

“I just stopped by for a quick meal, had the lamb kebabs plate. The kebabs were very tasty, nicely cooked and everything else on the plate was extremely fresh and flavorful. The place is very clean, the service was very friendly also. Will come back again for sure.“

“What a lovely addition to the stanford shopping center!

Among all the kebabs, the chicken kebab is our fav!

- chicken kebab
- classic hummus
- cucumber lemonade
- scrambled eggs with sausage (brunch item)

Chicken kebab is our favorite, we ordered many times, and each time is consistently good!

Classic hummus, great, who doesn’t love classic hummus!

The scrambled egg we hope it can be slightly larger in portion, but still very flavorful!

Oh and the cucumber lemonade is refreshing too!“

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

“Great food and even better service. I ordered the chicken kebab plate. It's a healthy portion. I also received a free cream of mushroom soup from the owner. He checked on me several times to see if I needed anything. I would highly recommend this place.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If you’re craving authentic, home-cooked Bosnian food, look no further than Euro Grill in Santa Clara! Every dish feels like it was made with love — rich flavors, generous portions, and the kind of comfort food that instantly takes you back home. On top of the amazing food, the staff is so warm and welcoming that you feel like part of the family the moment you walk in. Friendly smiles, great service, and genuine hospitality make this place a true gem. Highly recommend for anyone who wants to experience the best of Balkan cuisine right here in the Bay Area! 🇧🇦🍽️“

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

“The food was delicious and served warm, even with a phone order, it was ready for pickup without compromising quality. The customer service was exceptional: the staff were very kind, respectful, and genuinely welcoming. The environment was clean and well-maintained, creating a pleasant dining experience. I highly recommend this place, and the prices are quite reasonable for the value you receive.“

“Right next to the Starbucks I had passed it by many times. I finally decided to try it.
Ordered my food at the counter and found a nice table outdoors. Food was served at my table and was perfect. I very nice presentation and the flavor was excellent.
Pricing was fair - it is downtown Los Altos but it was a good value for the money.
Outside was clean and the traffic going by was entertaining but not distracting. Interior seating was well planned but this day the weather was so nice I couldn't seat inside. I order a gyros and it was flavored well. Proportion was great and I even took a little home for a late night snack. Will be returning. oh and brought me warm tea at the end of my supper, very nice touch.“

“Excellent food, drinks and service.“

“We had a dinner as a group of 4. We had 1 hummus, 2 salads, 2 pide, 1 family kebab platter, 1 extra adana, 1 lamp chops, 2 desert, 3 decaf coffee. Everything was super delicious. Total $530. Our service was done by Elmas and she was amazingly attentive. We will definitely come back again“

“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!“

“Awsm n tasty food………….. :)“

“I walked in Friday last week and I was immediately greeted by Carmen with a smile that made me feel very welcomed.
She asked how I was and walked me through the menu suggesting the new lamb and beef combo. She made sure that all my needs were met even after I had finished paying.“

“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“

“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.“

“I've been here a few times and haven't had anything but great food, fast & friendly service. It can be busy so I'd recommend just one person in line per party, stay alert if they call your number (or just stay around). Plenty of seating if people sit when they have their food. Parking can be difficult. Healthy sided servings. If you eat meat the Jerusalem mix is yummy.“

“Hidden gem. It's inside a grocery store by the dips and meat pies section. Delicious meals that fill you up without breaking the bank. Sit at the outdoor dining area and see how many white Teslas you can count in a row as they drive down El Camino. My record is seven Teslas.“

“Very friendly staff that make a delicious beef kabob!
This is a great spot for either a quick bite or some authentic middle eastern dishes. While I am not a smoker, others enjoyed being able to get a hookah as well.
Since there is no smoking indoors, it was safe for taking kids as well.“

“Meats are perfectly seasoned. Hummus is bold & smooth. Tzatziki is tangy & thick. Vegetables are fresh & crisp. Rice is aromatic & fluffy.

Indoor & outdoor seating. Open late. Exceptional dishes. Welcoming staff. Beautiful artwork. What more could you ask for?

This place is great.“

“good food and helpful service“

“Thumbs up:
- Easy, free parking
- Classy, quiet, and comfortable atmosphere
- Attentive and friendly service
- Steak was cooked as requested and with a nice chimichurri sauce

Meh:
- The accompanied shoestring potatoes were literally potato chips in shoestring format; really didn't pair well with the steak. Some veggies or polenta would have been much better.
- The key lime cheesecake was fine but not particularly tangy or memorable.
- Ow the lunch pricing. $60 after tax and tip for the steak entree + dessert (no drink), but this *is* in a hotel, so I wasn't terribly surprised.“

“I stopped by this Turkish café for what was supposed to be just a quick coffee, but once I saw they also served dinner, I decided to stay and eat.

I started with a traditional Turkish coffee and a slice of Revani, their classic semolina cake. The coffee came in the usual small cup, strong and bold, brewed in true Mediterranean style — simple and excellent. The Revani was moist and soaked in sugar syrup, topped with crushed pistachios. Sweet but not overpowering, it had a delicate aroma and almost reminded me of an Indian-style syrupy dessert. The portion was generous, so I ended up finishing it in two rounds.

For dinner, I ordered a Turkish flatbread topped with what tasted like a sliced beef sausage, cheese - somewhat pizza-like in appearance, but distinctly different in flavor and texture. It was filling and satisfying, though a bit greasy, especially underneath, likely from the cheese and meat. Thankfully, it was served with a fresh side salad of lettuce, tomato, and lemon, which added brightness and balance to the meal.

They have a wide variety of Turkish and Mediterranean pastries and desserts, and I’d definitely return to explore more - maybe even try a proper Turkish breakfast next time.

The café has a large dining room, and when I visited, part of it seemed pre-booked for Ramadan gatherings with set meals. I sat in a side corner and enjoyed my food. Service was a bit slow, I had to ask a few times for basic things like a fork and napkins, but overall, the vibe was warm and lively.

Food-wise, I really enjoyed it, and I’m definitely going back for more. Highly recommended if you enjoy exploring different cuisines and Mediterranean flavors.“

“When it comes down to Mediterranean food, I would fall into Mazra. However, Mazra now has a worthy rival! What's unique about a smaller restaurant like Nomadic Kitchen is that you feel the place more intimated. I like how the owner/manager and server take a great care of us. When we are about to order 4 choices of mezze, the owner/manager said he will take care of the choices for us and give us samples of everything else as well. The result: the beautiful palette of colors and flavors! I was a bit surprised that we got bread rather than pita. Still, it was amazing! We got the grilled lamb, which is quite nice, no hard-to-chew pieces at all. On top of that, the rice and bulgar (I guess) are so delicious with different fragrance and texture. The dishes are well thought out and so healthy as well. This place becomes one of the most amazing Mediterranean restaurants with reasonable prices. I definitely will come back and eat there again.“

“Excellent food, drinks and service.“

“I went there yesterday for the first time and it instantly became my new favorite spot in Menlo Park
staff were incredibly friendly and genuinely helpful. they took the time to explain the menu, made great recommendations, and just had the warmest energy the whole time. You can really feel they care about their guests.
And the food? Out of this world. Everything we ordered was bursting with flavor the hummus was silky and perfectly seasoned, the pomegranate kebabs were tender and juicy with that amazing mix of flavor, and don’t even get me started on the baklava… best I’ve had in ages. Portions were generous too.“

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

“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.“

“Oren's hummus offers authentic Israeli hummus in a convenient spot in Palo Alto. Service is quick and efficient

Reccomend the lamb kebabs with rice, they were really juicy and had a deep lamb flavour which paired well with the fragrant rice“

“Great veggie burger. Will go back.“

“Food here is always great and they have a lot of Halal options! Their customer service is also amazing. If something is not right, they make it right. Never left this place not satisfied. Thank you to the crew over at this location!! I always come by if I am in the area.“

“Great service and wonderful food!“

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

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

“This is a Delectable Mediterranean Restaurant! What can I say but TAMMAM!!! After a Sumptuous Meal on this Mother’s Day Sunday Evening!“

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

“Old school…throughout these years, still great food all the time!“

“Authentic and delicious. Friendly staff.“

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

“Love the lamb adana, it's tender and flavorful. The service is great, every staff member is polite and courteous. They value customer service which makes you go back to this place. You got to try every dessert on their menu. I haven't tried the rice pudding but the rest 3 I have and they are a must try.“

“This was our first visit to Cairo Grill and we were very impressed by the quality of the food and variety! You’ll get the most authentic taste of Mediterranean foods there. And the rice pudding is a 10/10! You must try this for dessert! The grocery store is also truly unique and has a variety of products that you will not find anywhere else“
