18 Best Greek Restaurants near San Mateo

“Bahche made our day out on a warm sunny day, even better! We came to Field Works to watch the England vs. Croatia game, and since they are in partnership with Bahche, the food was brought straight to our table! Super fresh, warm and ready to munch by all at the table! The ceviche was super juicy and tasty, the shrimp, fish and octopus was absolutely delicious. The beef and chicken skewers had just the right marinate and grill marks that made us feel outdoors, as if they were grilled right beside us. All around excellent experience for myself my brother and our friends. Anybody visiting this area needs to visit Bahche, it’s super convenient to get to between El Camino and 101-S in a super nice renewed area of Hillsdale/San Mateo. Their baklava with ice cream topped off the amazing experience and it was to our liking. I must call out their attention to detail, check out my photo of the baklava. How they place it even for a to-go packaging! Awesome and well recommended!“

“Nick the Greek Laurelwood is one of the best ran restaurants in the region. Litza, Dimitri, Wesley, and the team provide exceptional service every time I visit this restaurant.

“Our favorite place to go for Greek food! Birthdays, anniversaries, or just Friday night we are often enjoying the souvlaki, horiatiki salad, or saghanaki

Plus it feels very authentic - for example all their feta is real imported feta!

Service is also exceptional. Love their staff“

“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!“

“I love Nick the Greek the food is delicious, i specially love their falafels, and Lamb and Beef gyros. Sometimes I order a couple sides of each of their dishes, love being able to build my own plate.If you are looking for Greek food in the bay Nick the Greek is the place to go.“

“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!“

“I came in during a weekday afternoon as I needed something convenient and fresh. I've always had the gyro bowls but during this visit I saw they were advertising the Mediterranean bowl so I asked the staff / cashier what the differences were between the two and she told me about the ingredients used. Honestly I wasn't up for trying something new in that moment, but the cashier shared that the Mediterranean bowl was her favorite item and suggested I pair it with the chicken souvlaki. It was one of the tastier and better casual lunches I've had in a while! Service was also very friendly and helpful, and I thanked the cashier on my way out for her recommendation. It was so good that the following week I ordered the same bowls for a family dinner via door dash.

Highly recommend folks try the flavorful and vibramt Mediterranean Bowl if they havent her already.“

“Nick the Greek had an excellent atmosphere, fast service, and friendly staff. The food was fresh and tasted good overall. I would have given five stars, but I specifically asked about the Greek salad portion beforehand and was told it was a good size. Unfortunately, it did not match how it was presented on the menu, and for a $12 salad, it didn’t feel like a good value. I could understand a smaller portion if it included protein, but especially without protein, it felt overpriced for what was served. Good experience overall, but the portion size was disappointing.“

“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“

“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.“

“​⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely Incredible Mediterranean Food!
​If you are looking for authentic, fresh, and incredibly flavorful Mediterranean food, this is the place to go in Burlingame! The kabobs are cooked to absolute perfection—tender, juicy, and packed with the right amount of spices. Every side dish, from the hummus to the fresh rice, tastes homemade and high-quality.
​Beyond the food, the service is outstanding. The staff is welcoming, attentive, and makes you feel right at home. The portions are very generous for the price, meaning you definitely won't leave hungry. Whether you're grabbing a quick lunch wrap or sitting down for a full dinner plate, it never disappoints. Highly recommended!“

“A great Mediterranean counter service joint with very reasonably priced wraps and plates. Their desserts looked good, but I'll have to make sure to save room for them next time lol.

“Tried some sides and appetizers mid afternoon, loved them all. Hummus, baba ganoush and kebabs are flavorful. Wines are average ones so picked a bottle of some random brand, not bad for the price though. Seating outdoor is pleasant and enjoyable.“

“i wish they would not use seed oils as their food did block my insulin from working and sugar spike stayed all night. greek restaurants are supposed to use olive oil only. the restaurant is great for sharing and having fun with friends. music and dj was great too. this is a awesome addition to san carlos.“

“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.“
