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

“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.“

“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.“

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

“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.“

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

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

“Had lunch here yesterday while passing through the area, the mushroom pide was out of this world. The pastry/crust was unbelievably fresh and the flavor was delicious! Our server Umut was super friendly and attentive. Positive experience all around!“

““I went to this restaurant with my friends and we were really satisfied. The food was both delicious and freshly prepared. The service was quick and the staff were very friendly. The atmosphere is warm and comfortable, making it a great place to spend time with friends. I would definitely love to come back.”“

“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“

“Everything i ordered (mansaf, veggie plate, chick shawerma, dolma, tabbouleh) was ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. And the aish elsraya was 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥. I’m going back for more. Great service, too.“

“A great little neighborhood restaurant.

The food was excellent.

Reasonably priced and lots of seating.

Owner is friendly and very accommodating.

Nice place to sit and relax.
You do. Not feel rushed at all.“

“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!“

“A Hidden Gem!
Don’t let the name fool you—Meditation Pizza and Gyros is actually a go-to spot for incredible Turkish food. The Adana kebap is grilled to perfection—spicy, juicy, and bursting with flavor. Pair it with their fluffy rice and salad, and you’re golden.

Their pide is equally amazing—crispy edges, soft center, and topped with melty cheese or savory meats. It’s the ultimate comfort food.

And please, whatever you do, save room for the künefe. This dessert is a masterpiece—warm, crispy, gooey cheese soaked in sweet syrup and topped with pistachios. It’s the kind of thing you close your eyes for after the first bite.

Great food, kind service, cozy vibe—this place has earned a permanent spot on my favorites list.“

“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 “

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

“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.“

“We got a combo doner (gyro) wrap. I am picky about doner, it is very hard for me to like if it is not really good. But this doner was amazing! Juicy, well cooked, tasty. No additional sauce in the wrap, just like the real Turkish doner! I highly recommend this place. And I’ll definitely try the other meal options in the future.“

“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 .“

“ONE word "EXCELLENT". Great menu, love the murals, quick service, clean and they even serve beer and wine. parking is tricky so have patience. Garlic Fries, Hummus, Combo Gyro Plate!“

“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..!!!!“

“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.“

“When it comes to Mediterranean food, Falafel Tazah truly stands out. I've been a loyal customer at all of their locations for over ten years, and I can honestly say I've never had a bad meal. Their chicken and veggie kabobs are my go-to favorites, and their falafels, hands down the best I've ever had. Their food certainly lives up to the name with that unmistakable fresh taste every single time.

The restaurant is always spotless and impeccably maintained, which adds to the whole experience. The owner is genuinely one of the friendliest people you'll meet and goes out of his way to make sure every customer leaves happy.

Keep up the amazing work, Team Falafel Tazah!“

“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“

“Really cool place. The food is real quality, so many options.

However they won't add hummus or babba to a wrap, blame the manager. With a full deli on steroids and the ability to sell you any portion size on the side. It's very disheartening.

But this place is amazing. I would come back and really recommend it“

“First time! Will definitely be back!!“

“Delicious authentic Turkish food. We came here twice, and both times were great. We met the restaurant owner who was very gracious and kind and server is tea with Kadaifi. Quick service, clean restaurant, delicious food. Will definitely come by anytime we're in town.“

“Very clean inside, friendly staff and comfortable seating. (Outdoor as well) The food was fresh and perfectly prepared. We really enjoyed our appetizer and dinner plate that we shared. It was so nice out and the windows were open. Just a lovely, relaxing dinner without spending tons of money.“

“Sarahi somehow manages to educate you on the menu, ensure a clean table, and communicates your wishes for the perfect meal to the cooking team all while giving you a welcoming smile. Something about a perfect swirl froyo afterward makes this experience beyond satisfactory. The City of Good Living is lucky to have this gem with such a kind 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.“

“Excellent food, drinks and service.“

“Society Restaurant & Hookah Lounge is one of our favorite spots! The place looks amazing—really luxurious and classy. The food is always on point, and the hookah is the best we’ve had. What keeps us coming back is the service. Everyone there is super friendly, from the staff to the owner and manager. They always make sure we’re taken care of and having a great time. 5 stars for sure!“

“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“

“I came here to try their Quesabirria tacos and let me tell you they hit. They had a good amount of meat in them and well seasoned and their hot sauce made sweat but it wasn’t over spicy. Dipping the tacos in that consome was so good. I’ll definitely get these again and now I want to come back and try other food items. I never knew this place was here until I looked up best quesabirria tacos near me and this place popped up. Thanks google maps for finding a hidden gem.“

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

“great service from the staff , good food , good ambience“

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

“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“

“We love this place — incredibly impressed without exception. Delicious and flavorful food, a really fun back patio with a delightful waterfall and other sweet decorations, and unfailing fantastic service. Highly recommend (for lunch or dinner), including a sophisticated atmosphere for special occasions“

“Visited Anatolian kitchen for a birthday dinner. The place is located on California Ave. It is a cozy place. The food and service is very good. I tried the adana kebab and lamb shish kabab, both were amazing. Certainly looking forward to visiting next time.“

“I went there with my wife, she absolutely loved the place. A great place to spend time with your partner or friends. Very cozy and warm vibes. Plenty of space outside and tables inside. Amazing greek food, vegetarians and vegans got options as well. The staff are lovely and super kind. I’d suggest making a reservation before going there. Well deserved 5 stars.“

“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!“

“Came here on Saturday 7/26, and the service was so friendly I had to review! Both register and kitchen staff were friendly and attentive. They were also proactive for service opportunities. Definitely the best Nick the Greek I’ve ever been to. And extremely clean bathroom!“
