18 Best Greek Restaurants near San Mateo

“I had the Branzino and it was beautifully prepared and tasted amazing. My friend had the Paella and loved it. Overall, I really enjoyed the restaurant. The prices seem a little high, but the food was amazing so I wasn't too bothered to pay. Service was excellent. Cute up and coming area amidst the many new apartment buildings and corporate buildings. I'll be back.“

“This place is great! The food is always fresh and tasty. Delivers every time. The people are friendly, inviting, and welcoming (lots and Demetre). They make us feel like family. They do have beer and wine. And the frozen yoghurt is terrific especially with chocolate drizzled over it! The facilities are spotless, including the restrooms. We love this place!“

“Best pizza in the Bay 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!“

“First time here. Really enjoyed the food and atmosphere.“

“Everyone thought the food was really good. We had the whole branzino and both the beef and chicken souvlaki. Everything seasoned well and cooked perfectly. Thoughtful service. We split two salads among the four of us, and they actually plated them individually for us. We have a member of our group who must eat gluten free. They were very knowledgeable about celiac and helpful in making good choices and making sure everything was safe with no cross contact.“

“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!“

“Dined here for the first time today and really enjoyed our meal and the friendly service. Had the chicken gyro. Will be back to try other items in the menu!“

“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.“

“I just enjoy their food. Friends and I would’ve dined in but unfortunately not enough seething for larger group. The cashier was so sweet and helpful. I think she is new, not seen her before.

Parking: Lots of parking available as they are located in a mall strip“

“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“

“Chicken souvlaki is surprisingly really tender for chicken breast meat.

Get that above all else.

Also, I think the classic hummus is better than the harissa hummus. The combo plate was a good value, but wasn’t overly impressed by the gyro meat.“

“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.“

“Ever thought of trying a local small business, family restaurant. The guy who runs this place came from Turkiye in 2008. Settled down in SFO, had a family and is living an American dream.
His only complaint is SFO is expensive. Well we can all agree to that.
Food is very tasty.
We tried falafel wrap, chicken gyro and kids gyro with rice. All of these were of great quality. Plus the Turkish delight was fabulous. Owner shared Turkish tea on the house. Plus I ordered fries in kids meal but it came with rice instead. No worries he added fries and refused to take money for it. Well I made it up in the tip.
If you are south SFO and crave Mediterranean food. This is the place.“

“The food here is OK. It took over 15 minutes. People that ordered after me got their food within five minutes. I ordered a beefteki (baked beef) pita $13.73, chicken skewer $6.04, side of rice $4.40 and a froyo $7.09. Everything tasted OK. It wasn't great.“

“I love this restaurant so much, it’s the best on Burlingame Avenue! Their food has so much flavor and never misses. Their chicken yuro plate is so delicious! They always have great surface. You need to eat dinner here the next time you’re on the ave.“

“Our party of Nine was lucky enough to get a semi private room with a door that closed because the music was so loud, we could hardly hear each other speak. Our servers were attentive and professional! The menu was full of items for everyone! Everyone had a great time and will definitely be back!“

“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.“
