Overall our food came all at different times, they got one of our orders completely wrong, and the chicken itself was incredibly dry and way too burnt. We came on a Saturday afternoon with a party of 3 and each persons dish came individually with such a long gap in between that basically one person ate and finished their plate at a time. Our last friend had his wrap order messed up and took even longer to eat (probably 20 min after everyone else had finished). The chicken was very very dry and had a ton of charring/burnt pieces that we ended up asking for more ketchup to help eat it with. The server forgot out ketchup order so we ended up walking up to ask for more ketchup and was handed a measly two packets (as if ketchup was really expensive)? Later the same server came by with a side of pita - I think she misheard our original ask for ketchup and somehow thought we wanted more bread instead? We were pretty disappointed in our experience here. read more

Ordered delivery: combo plate, Turkish pizza, and the appetizer sampler -- plenty for two. Everything had a traditional Mediterranean taste. The meats were flavorful and well-seasoned, but the favorite was definitely the Turkish pizza, which stood out from the spread. Overall, a great meal for two and worth repeating. read more

Convenient location on Castro. You order at the counter, get a number, and they'll bring food to you. Portion size is decent and expected price for being in downtown MV. Reason for 3 stars: the food is fine, but somewhat bland. Lacks the usual seasoning expected for Mediterranean food. Even the chili sauce isn't very spicy or flavorful. You can find better in the Bay. read more

Hair in the wrap?! I ordered a wrap here recently, and honestly, I'm pretty sure the back kitchen isn't as clean as the front, because I found a hair in my wrap, right on top, super obvious. For these prices, how do you even serve food like this? What's the difference then from a random Mediterranean food truck? Seriously, it's a joke. Of course, I couldn't even touch it, I just left my plate and walked out without asking for a "replacement meal," because who knows how the next one would be made. Hopefully you work on this and get better. read more

Great Falafel & Weekend Shakshuka! I've tried a few things here, and overall, it's a decent spot for Mediterranean food. The falafel is fresh and well-seasoned, and the classic hummus is good. One standout dish for me was the shakshuka, which is available only on weekends until 12 or 1 PM. It was flavorful, perfectly cooked, and something I'd definitely come back for. On the other hand, I wasn't a fan of the olive and feta hummus--it just didn't work for me. If you visit, I highly recommend trying the shakshuka on weekends! read more

Great food. And they know how to take care of people. Service is optimum. We got our food a little late so they made it up by giving us a treat. The taste is great - real authentic Turkish food and coffee. Best experience in Mountain View! read more

This is a place where you order and they deliver to your seat, so not full service. The ambiance felt pleasant and casual and my food came out quickly. I got the combination plate which I liked a lot. There was a lot of meat which was all tasty. The veggies and rice and pita were all fresh. I paid $25 plus optional tip for this which is a little on the pricier side, but for the amount of meat you get it feels reasonable. I wish I would have gotten to try the hummus, but another time. read more

Cute workers and great food! An absolute favorite spot of mine. The crispy manti can not be topped and the kunefe is just as good! The customer service and interior are absolutely a perfect vibe and it feels very nice but not too expensive! Couldn't recommend this place enough! read more

Very happy with our experience here as a fast casual Mediterranean dining place. We ordered the house combo plate which is what I would highly recommend getting! It comes with a good amount of food, the kebabs were well cooked and it came with sides of rice, salad, tzatziki, and pita. With a side dish of something else it was a good amount of food for two. We also tried the appetizer sampler plate to try all the different sides, however I would only recommend that if you know you like them all. Some of them were delicious but I didn't care for others. A good place if you're looking for delicious and healthy dining. Friendly staff, quick service, good indoor and outdoor dining areas. read more

Food is amazing. It is actually the best mediterranean food ive had. I usually do not like Lamb, but you have to try out the lamb here. I got the house combo which includes rice, chicken, lamb, and beef. All are super amazing. Atmosphere is also amazing. I love the aesthetic of the restaurant. It is a pretty chill dining area. The staff are really nice, and yeah. Only thing i would worry about is that the food checkout is pay at the front, and thats the only thing i would change. read more

Delicious food and Turkish tea. The food standards and quality are similar of that you would eat in Turkey. The staff were so friendly and the guy has given us free pot of tea with our food as we were not sure if we needed a full tea pot or one cup of tea. And the tea is absolutely delicious and aromatic. We sat outside which was okay but not much space. There are many tables inside too but its a bit noisy. read more

Mixed reviews for this place. There were inconsistencies with service here. When we asked the cashier what was good there, she was a bit disoriented and didn't understand what we were asking?!? So we just rolled on and ordered... We ordered the appetizer sampler and the house combo. The appetizer sampler only comes with one pita cut into 4 pieces. It was not enough bread for a sampler that costs $18. We had to pay for extra bread for the appetizer sampler when it was technically free. Then they did not bring it out the pita bread. We had to ask for it. Then they said they only like to bring a little to keep the pita bread hot? That would be a good explanation if we actually got the pita bread. There is a health/wellness fee with each order which I didn't see advertised anywhere on the wall menu. I rather dining establishments charge more for their items than trying to hand off the medical expenses to the customer. Then you are shocked by the extra charge when you see the bill. There should be an option to opt out of it if requested like in Chicago. They did give us free pistachio baklava. That was nice. I also liked the fast casual aspect to the place and it is somewhat affordable for downtown MV. The food is actually good but I wish the service matched the food quality. Sad because I live around the corner so I might decide to do takeout instead of dealing with the service issues. read more

Came here without a reservation with 1 other person. Good: - Pretty quick service - go up to the front and order, then come back outside - Good portion sizes - I liked the beef moussaka a lot and it came with a tasty and refreshing side salad and a yummy pita bread as well - Decent pricing - not the cheapest but also not crazy for Castro street - Super nice staff Bad: - Pretty casual place, not super fancy but the inside is nice! Overall this place is a casual place to get healthy tasting food on Castro! In my opinion, pretty comparable to a place like Oren's Hummus. read more

We got the veggie combo bowl with a side of falafel and hummus, and it was really good! The bowl had a nice mix of fresh ingredients, and the falafel was super crunchy, which I loved. The hummus went well with everything too. You order at the counter before getting seated at a table, and they bring your food to you. I'd recommend sitting outside on Castro Street--it's a great spot with nice vibes. Overall, a solid place for healthy, tasty food. read more

Mountain View's Castro Street, home to a mountain of restaurants. Four blocks and plenty of steps from end-to-end, and you'll find Hummus Mediterranean Kitchen. Home of traditional Mediterranean dishes, including plates, appetizers, salads, and desserts. Perfect for that Mountain View-munch, and if you go to the next city over, they have one for the Palo Alto-people watch. read more

Best hummus I have ever had! This is the place to get Greek food in Mountain View. I enjoyed the salmon plate.

We recently went to Hummus Mediterranean in Mountain View and were not disappointed! Our favorite dish was the Lahmacun. So good when it's fresh. They even have its own hot sauce that takes everything to another level. Their Hummus Flight allows you to try different kinds of hummus. We still liked the classic hummus the best but the flight is worth trying if you feel adventurous. A must try for foodies! The meat was cooked perfectly and you can't go wrong with anything. If you can't pick, go for the House Combo so you can taste a bit of everything. Ohhhh, and just order the Turkish Coffee with the Baklava. Chef's kiss! read more

Decided to try out this place because it seems popular and highly rated on Yelp! Unfortunately we didn't have a great experience there. A few things: we were told they were out of lamb and beef gyros when we were there and so we ordered the chicken gyros instead. We also got the moussaka. The service was alright but it surprised me that the waiters didn't seem to know how to pronounce the entree names. We also didn't expect the chicken gyros to simply be roasted chicken and the pita bread tasted like it was just microwaved. The moussaka was also quite small compared to the rest of the plate (maybe only 15% of the plate?) and was a bit too cheesy, definitely lacking bechamel. Nearly the end of the dinner, we also discovered a bug in the purple cabbage salad, which was really unappetizing. Was so excited about having a gyro place in the neighborhood but we would not be going back anytime soon. read more

Came back to try the Turkish breakfast. Enjoyed the time there as it was quite at 9am so wasn't loud, good place/time to meet to catch up. Aesthetically looks nicely arranged. Essentially it's a charcuterie board. It is very fulfilling and yummy. My friend and I weren't sure how to get started and not sure what the items were so we played a guessing game- I wished the waiter gave some info but he dropped off the items and went to the back. Sweet dippings - honey w/butter, a tahini like thing, Nutella, some kind of yogurt with berry jam Savory - sliced sausage like similar to chorizo, cheeses (I think there were 3 or 4 types), spinach Spanakopita, fried cheese roll, hard boiled egg, sun dried tomatoes, olives Side salad- nothing special... my friend and I were surprised there wasn't sumac on it. Overall is a good experience but not sure if I'd come back for the Turkish breakfast specifically since it's $25/person but I'd definitely come back for the other items. read more

Very delicious! Got the beef cubes pide and it was awesome! Had a pizza vibe but this pide did not have any cheese, so ideal for the dairy-free. To me, the Turkish spices were complementary though subtle. Although it's matter of all of Castro Street (and not anything on the individual restaurant), it's always a challenge with parking in this area. Even Thursday around 2:00pm, it was busy. Otherwise I'd say 5 stars. read more

Overall: nice exterior, good if you just want to catch up with friends and don't want to feel pressured to leave a place, good if you need a place to eat on Castro and everything else is busy. The food is solid but nothing to write home about and the service is a hit or miss (this time around it was challenging). The food also costs more than advertised. Seems family owned, but I'm not sure. Cost: the advertised price is not what you're charged. This is really weird since this is a place where you pay at the counter. It seemed like it was an average $2 more for each dish. I wish they would just add the charge to the menu items, since I was very surprised to see a higher bill. The manager was not forthcoming when asked about this. Food: I've had the salmon wrap a couple times and it's ok! I would get it again if I was eating here with friends, but wouldn't go out of my way to get it. read more

Found Hummus Mediterranean Kitchen on Yelp while searching for a lunch option on Castro street. The food looked good and reasonably priced (especially when compared to some of the other Castro Med. establishments). It was counter ordering, then you get a number and the food is brought out to you. Naturally I couldn't pick just one meat so I ordered the house combo to try them all. I was really impressed with the quality and flavor of the meat, especially the beef kebab. I was expecting this to be similar to the Koftedes, but it was straight up steak. It was cooked about medium, medium rare, and was better than anything I was expecting. Chicken was also good and full of flavor, nice and juicy too. Also liked that the lamb and beef wasn't too salty. We also got the hummus flight to share, and my coworker got the salmon wrap - which he liked. Hummus flight was a good move so that we were able to taste them all. Favorite was the olive and feta hummus, with the regular ole hummus coming in at second place. The beet hummus was good, though a little sweet to eat as a whole serving - great as a small portion. And the chipotle hummus was good as a small portion as well because it had a little more heat than I wanted. The pita bread was the only thing that didn't impress, it was pretty average, but still a good vessel to scoop some hummus into your mouth. Food took a little while to come out, but everything tasted really fresh, definitely would prefer that over having everything ready and out quick. There was plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. The space was nice and bright with lots of natural light, and they had plenty of plugs in case you want to get some work done while there. read more

Came here for lunch with a colleague and was pleasantly surprised! We got the hummus trio to share, and I got the salmon wrap bc I'm tryin to eat more fish and for some reason I crave it more when I go for Mediterranean food. The salmon wrap was hella good. Lots of salmon, veggies, crunch, and very filling. What elevated it for me was the hot sauce (gotta ask for it) it was good spicy, and perfect complement to the wrap itself. The fries were soggy though. The hummus trio was cool, but honestly not something I'd get again. Prolly bc I like the traditional and spicy one the best. The consistency was good and I could've eaten more of it with more pita bread. There wasn't a bunch of people there and for some reason the food did take longer than usual but we didn't mind because we had a bunch of stuff to catch up on. Overall, great place to grab a lunch if you are craving fast casual Mediterranean food, Bay Area affordable prices, and good flavor. read more

I was surprised that this restaurant would earn 4 stars. I ordered a lamb/beef gyros. It was dry, had hardly any meat for the price, and was overall disappointing. Other reviews comment on how this place can accommodate large groups. My thought-- there is a reason for available seating. Additionally, the first cashier was delightful. However, when I asked a different cashier for a hot water refill for tea, she looked at me, took my cup, filled it, and returned it, all without saying one word. There are many better options on Castro St. read more

Came here for lunch with friends on Saturday and it was great! We arrived around 12:30 and it was pretty empty, though it got much busier an hour later. The indoor seating was so cute but we chose an outdoor table since the weather was nice. I got a fattoush salad with chicken breast and it was so yummy. The chicken was perfectly grilled and flavorful and the salad was really refreshing. I also loved the side of pita that came with it. Overall it was a terrific meal but a bit pricier than other places. read more

I ordered the lamb and beef gyro and was quite disappointed. There was a small amount of all ingredients. The sauces tasted very bland. The meat seasoning was nonexistent. The wrap was somewhat on the hard and chewy side. They also charge a health safety fee, which I have not seen in a while at any place I have dined at. The restaurant inside was cute and modern. The door is super heavy so be careful and make sure to use muscles to pull it open. read more

Hummus Mediterranean Kitchen - House Combination Plate Appetizer Sampler Plate - Mediterranean Near Me - Mountain View, California

Absolutely tasteless and not fresh. The falafel--five tiny, dry, crumbly balls served with just a spoonful of hummus--cost over $8 (plus tax) and was clearly not made fresh. The Fattoush salad was even more disappointing: a bowl of pre-cut iceberg lettuce with a few pieces of cucumber and tomato, topped with burnt croutons and what tasted like Kraft salad dressing. No spices, no flavor, and barely any real vegetables--for $13 plus tax. I'd be embarrassed to serve this food, let alone charge for it. When the waitress asked if I liked the food, I said it was not good at all and mentioned it tasted very different from the Stanford location. She just smiled, said "yes," and walked away. Why even ask if there's no intention to listen or respond? I've had great meals at the Stanford Shopping Mall location before, but this visit was a complete waste of $25--and my time. read more

The chicken shawarma wrap tastes pretty good with the fillings and spices it has in it. Just like everything else it is overpriced though.

Wow I am so surprised by the service I just received. We order from hummus twice a week. They once messed up on my order and I didn't say anything because it happens so I made sure to ask for the correct chicken I have received in the past. I called back to add onto my order and now triple check. I was met with disappointment and disrespectful staff. The staff called back to make sure I will be picking up my order since it was a pretty big one. They said they will fix my order that the previous staff messed up and was very disrespectful about. The excuse was that she was new. I'm not sure if that was true or not but nonetheless. My workplace and I order here two times a week at least 6 of us at a time. It's sad to say I might not be coming back as I do not tolerate being spoken to the way I was. And no apology when I went into the store. I too work in service and would never speak to someone the way I was spoken to. It's embarrassing to treat anyone like that let alone a regular customer. read more

had a craving for healthy Mediterranean food and decided to try this place for takeout, but once I arrived, I was so impressed by the bright, inviting dining space that I decided to dine in instead. The staff was incredibly accommodating and quickly offered a seat and brought water for me and my partner. The food was fantastic--the baba ganoush was a standout, and I couldn't stop eating it! Paired with the Mediterranean Bowl and a side of crispy falafels, everything was fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. Definitely a place I'll return to! read more

We came for dinner today and enjoyed the food, lahmacun was tasty. However, the service at the end ruined the experience. After dinner, we ordered tea to relax and enjoy the evening. At around 9:40pm, a staff member named Üma, young girl with long hair, came to our table and insisted on taking away our tea cups and tea pot, even though we were still drinking them. She said they had closed at 9:30, but instead of letting us finish politely, she demanded to take them away and wanted us to leave, then proceeded to clean the table whilst we were packing to leave. This felt extremely rude and unprofessional. Customer service matters just as much as the quality of food and unfortunately this experience left us very disappointed. read more

We visited this restaurant yesterday with a friend and sat on the patio. After enjoying our lahmacun, we ordered tea and were still drinking it when a tall girl with long reddish/orange hair, named Uma, came over. She asked if she could clear the table, and when I said we were still drinking our tea, she insisted and said, "Yes, if possible." What shocked us even more is that she took the tea away while our cups were still half full, with tea in them, and while there was still tea left in the thermos we had paid for. We hadn't finished what we ordered, yet it was taken from us without giving us the chance to enjoy it. Even if the kitchen closes at 9:30, when customers are still sitting and enjoying their tea outside, it's not acceptable to pressure them to leave or take away what they've paid for. This was very rude and unprofessional behavior. We've been loyal customers of Hummus for a long time, but this experience made us feel disrespected. The two staff members at the counter with black hair are always very sweet, smiling, and welcoming. However, Uma's attitude was extremely rude and dismissive, and it left us with a very negative impression. Customer service matters, and unfortunately, it seems like it's not being valued here anymore. If this continues, the restaurant will lose many more loyal customers like us. read more

It's aite. Ordered takeout over the phone, order was ready promptly. Got the appetizer sampler plate $18.95, side order of lamb kebab $13.50, and baklava $6.50. Sampler plate was a decent size, had a nice variety of dips (hummus, babaganoush, salsa, eggplant, tzatziki), 3 small crispy falafel balls, 2 small dolmathes, 2 pitas. It was all pretty good. Lamb kebab was a generous portion, but meats were poor quality. There was maybe 8 big pieces of meat, but only 2 were completely edible. All the others were very chewy and difficult to swallow, ended up spitting out most of them. Flavor and seasoning was good though. Baklava was 2 small squares and were decent, just a bit sweet and syrupy. Overall, food was okay, prices seemed fair for the quality and portions sizes. It's more of a fast casual, order and seat yourself restaurant. Medium sized with both indoor and outdoor seating. They have many locations. Probably wouldn't go back To owner: meat was cooked fine. Medium to medium rare, but still not edible due to the poor quality of the meat read more
