“Great food, Friendly staff.“

“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.“

“I have to give a huge shoutout to the team at Nick the Greek! I placed an online order and left a note mentioning that my falafel hadn't been cooked well in the past. Not only did they make sure it came out perfectly crispy this time, but they also threw in a free sauce AND left the sweetest handwritten note on my order slip. It's such a small thing that takes so little effort, but it means so much as a customer. it TRULY shows they actually read the notes and genuinely care about getting it right. This kind of above-and-beyond service is rare, especially with online orders where there's usually zero personal touch. You just earned a loyal regular. Thank you for making my day!“

“Las pizzas están bien ricas“

“Iraklis Restaurant is a true culinary gem! The menu features a delightful selection of authentic Greek dishes, with each plate bursting with rich flavors and freshness. The moussaka is a standout—rich, hearty, and beautifully presented, while the tzatziki is the perfect complement to any meal. The welcoming ambiance and friendly staff make you feel right at home. Whether you're enjoying a casual dinner or a special celebration, Iraklis delivers an exceptional dining experience every time. Highly recommend for anyone looking to enjoy delicious Greek cuisine!“

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

“Exceeded expectations !!

Last night 5 of ladies needed an easy no fuss dinner option, mostly one we could spend time catching up without feeling rushed.

The food was great, atmosphere was quiet & clean, some tables are available for outside seating (moved inside once all of us arrived), very helpful & kind worker, clean bathroom, and friendly open environment.

We all enjoyed our meals, and even living in different cities in the bay, we’d all return. ALL sauces were great and offered with meals.

The only food improvement for me, would be the regular fries, I’d substitute them and try curly fries next visit.

“This was my first visit to Mardini’s Deli, and it definitely won’t be my last! The customer service was outstanding—everyone was welcoming, friendly, and made me feel right at home. The sandwiches were fresh, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. On top of that, the prices are very reasonable for the quality and generous portions you get. If you’re looking for great food, excellent service, and great value, I highly recommend Mardini’s Deli!“

“Absolutely the BEST food and service at Eurogrill! From the moment you walk in, you feel welcomed like family. The staff is friendly, attentive, and always makes sure everything is perfect. The food is outstanding, fresh, flavorful, and made with real Balkan tradition. The Ćevapi (house specialty) are simply the best I’ve ever had! Perfectly seasoned, juicy, and grilled to perfection. You can truly taste the quality and authenticity in every bite. If you’re looking for amazing Balkan food and top-notch service, Eurogrill is the place to go. Highly recommend! I will definitely be coming back again and again. 👏🔥 Ketering was perfectly arranged!“

“Lovely owner. Remembers you, will take care of you even if you’re new. Amazing food with thoughtful presentation that’s cooked perfectly. I would recommend here for first or 40th date. I would eat here with friends. Lovely lovely lovely place.“

“The food was ACTUALLY to die for. Did not expect this level of flavor from this humble establishment, but I was pleasantly surprised. Everything we got was delicious including hummus, babaganoush, mix platter, dolma, caramalized milk, baklava, and the Iskender. I probably wouldn't get the Iskender again, but that's just because they made an Italian spin on Mediterranean food and I just wanted Mediterranean. They even served me a free Turkish tea just for the heck of it.
Come and eat here, you won't regret it!“

“Really enjoyed Nomadic Kitchen in San Mateo! They feature a streamlined menu focused on heavy-hitting entrees and appetizers, which makes ordering easy because everything they do, they do right.

The hummus plate is an absolute must-have. It features incredibly creamy, delicious hummus topped with vibrant cabbage and pomegranate seeds. It is surrounded by a beautiful ring of rich, colorful sauces, dips, and pickles that pair perfectly with the basket of warm, homemade bread.

For the main course, the chicken kebab was a total hit. The chicken breast cubes are perfectly charred and incredibly tender. What really sets Nomadic Kitchen over the top is their beautiful plating and generous side options. The entree comes out beautifully arranged on a sleek black platter, complete with a fresh salad topped with pickled cabbage, a side of seasoned bulgur wheat, and a side of fluffy white rice. Having both rice options on one plate is a fantastic touch.

If the weather is nice, I highly recommend sitting out on the patio area to enjoy the beautiful San Mateo sun. The service was completely solid, friendly and fairly quick, and the prices are very reasonable for the quality of food you get. I will definitely be back.“

“I’ve had such a good time at Zaytinya. It’s a perfect spot to meet up with friends or loved ones. Nice food along with wholesome atmosphere. I had a pup with me so having an outdoor space was so handy. Food was top notch. Salad with watermelon… steak.. oyster. Holly!!! Ridiculously delicious. If you want experience— ask the staff what’s chef most excited about. Be guru for a second. Chef Amiran the best! Thank you guys.“

“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.“

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

“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!“

“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“

“The food was absolutely delicious! I ordered the lamb kebab, and it was excellent. The owner was wonderful—very friendly, polite, and knowledgeable. He took the time to explain the dishes and provided outstanding service. Highly recommended!“

“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.“

“We had a fantastic time! The food was incredible, with the chicken kebab and Greek salad being particular standouts. The combo appetizer was also a hit. Clarisa provided exceptional service, taking care to explain each dish and making sure we had everything we needed. We can't wait to go back and highly recommend it to others!“

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

“"Thank you so much ☺️ for the excellent Catering. Your wonderful Customer Service and Delicious Food made our event special❤️❤️ Bassam & Randa“

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

“This is a very unique joint because it’s inside of a grocery store which made it unique, but the food itself was amazing. We were here from out of town in the Central Valley and the reviews were very good so we took a chance and we were very happy. The grocery store itself was amazing. They had some items that we can’t find back home so we did some grocery shopping as well. I would highly recommend this place two thumbs up.“

“I’m honestly surprised I didn’t discover this spot sooner. I had heard of it before, but this was my first visit and I was really impressed. It is a large, cozy space with simple interiors and a very busy kitchen, which says a lot about how much traffic they get. The food definitely lived up to the popularity.

I ordered the chicken kebab with the hummus plate as the base. I originally wanted to try the majadera rice and lentils, but they were out of it, probably because I visited close to closing time. Thankfully, the hummus plate turned out to be an excellent choice. The chicken was incredibly tender and well seasoned, and it came with generous portions of hummus, baba ghanoush, onions, cilantro, pickles, purple cabbage, and other sides. They even included fries in the mix, and surprisingly, everything worked together really well. It was such a unique combination that I was genuinely impressed.

I also tried a couple of falafel balls out of curiosity, and they paired really well with the rest of the meal. The only small downside was that the soda was not as cold as I would have liked. The staff were nice, although understandably quite busy with the rush.

Overall, this was a fantastic Mediterranean food experience and easily one of the more interesting combinations I’ve tried. I absolutely recommend it and cannot wait to come back.“

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

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

“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.“

“good food and helpful service“

“5 STARS! No BS corporate Olive Garden here! Calzone's my fave. Few Italian spots make'm nowadays. Bread's pillow soft. Mushrooms & tomatoes retain a lotta H2O. I've had some watery ones from other restaurants that spilled out when cut open in the past. Theirs is legit. Customize your own, but the 1 on the menu's fabulous as is. They make their own herb focaccia! Ordering mouthwatering meatballs a la carte is a must! Pastas, paninis, open face, salads, rotisserie chx, ribs, draft beer, wine, delivery, takeout, etc. Perfect place to take your loved ones/friends who'd appreciate the art & hard work the staff serves up so quickly!“

“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“

“We had a nice lunch outside at Anatolian Kitchen. We shared one app and had wraps. The wraps are very large, cut in half, and could be shared by two if not overly hungry. Both the lamb and the chicken were tasty. Two of us enjoyed mocktail Margaritas and we all ended with cappuccinos. Nice service on a sunny day (but outside tables mostly in shade).“

“I visited this café with my friends and we had a great experience. We ordered three different dishes, and everything was delicious and well prepared. The place was clean and уютный, creating a very comfortable atmosphere to relax and enjoy our time together. The service was also very good, staff were friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. Overall, it was a really pleasant visit, and I would definitely recommend this café to others. I’d be happy to come back again!“

“Authentic and delicious. Friendly staff.“

“Great veggie burger. Will go back.“

“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“

“Good food, reasonable prices, friendly staff quick service and groovy music“

“Great service and wonderful food!“

“TabarakAllah the food here was just like HOME!! It was so delicious I can’t wait to go back again. You know it’s authentic when you see all the Auntie’s working hard to cook the food for everyone. You get a lot of food for a great price!! Definitely a great place to eat!“
