    Garlic Rotisserie Plate ($22)
    Rachel L.

    Very fresh! My favorite was the grilled arayes which were so nicely seasoned and piping hot. Very good with the hummus. The Cheese Halloumi rolls were nice a crispy with generous amounts of cheese; didn't love it with the honey though. Very fresh pita bread that went well with all the dips. For my entree, I got the garlic rotisserie plate. While the chicken was cooked perfectly, it tasted like a plain rotisserie chicken with no garlic flavor. The garlic flavor just came from the garlic sauce which comes with almost all other entrees anyways. Fries and garlic potatoes were decent. Someone else in my party also ordered the garlic rotisserie chicken and her chicken came out dry, so that raises concerns about consistency. The service was good despite how busy they were. Absolutely LOVE the interior. Would come back, but not drying to.

    Double Kebab Plate
    Anh P.

    Mazra in Redwood City absolutely lives up to the hype. For flavor and quality alone, I think it's one of the best Mediterranean restaurants in the Bay Area. We ordered: Double Kebab Plate (chicken kebab and filet mignon kebab): both were juicy, but the filet mignon was the best. It was tender, flavorful, and easily became our favorite dish of the meal. Steak Shawarma Plate: came with a surprisingly generous amount of meat. The bowl was packed with steak, and every bite was well-seasoned and delicious. Drinks (spiced iced tea and banana date shake): both were great, but the banana date shake was especially satisfying This place is very popular, so be prepared for a wait. We put our name on the waitlist and waited a little over 30 minutes for a table. But once we were seated, the food came out quickly and the service was efficient. The portions are huge, the food is consistently excellent, it's easy to see why there's always a crowd. I can't recommend Mazra enough and will definitely be back.

    Halloumi Cheese Roll
    Melody T.

    Wow the food is amazing!!! The portion size is so large too that I barely made a dent before taking the rest home. The halloumi cheese rolls.... Still thinking about them months later LOL It's pretty much self service in the way that after they seat you, you order yourself on your phone, get your own utensils, but they do check on people often! It was nice sitting outside until the rain got us BUT otherwise I think on a nice sunny day, it would be a nice chill place to eat :)

    Giving this place 4/5 stars because it is definitely a bit overhyped imo haha. The food IS good, the restaurant is beautiful, and service was good. HOWEVER, I'm not sure the flavors were anything special. Yes, the food is so vibrant and the variety is awesome. But from all the dishes we got, nothing stood out and made us yell "YUM". The portions are good for the price, but again.....it wasn't too worth it after tasting the food. None of it was bland, but none of it was as flavorful as we expected (from the colors, presentation, variety, etc.). My expectations were just very high coming in and I was a bit disappointed..... At the end of the day though, this is a solid Mediterranean restaurant. A great place to come with friends or family. A menu with lots of variety to please everyone!

    From the interior to the food everything about this place is fantastic. The meat was so flavorful and juicy, the dips was delectable, the portions were good sizes, the pita was also fresh and soft. Service was great as well! They have a QR code ordering and paying so pretty fast.

    Chicken Shawarma
    Brett N.

    Why 5 stars? Because I will be thinking about the Chicken Shawarma for a long time. --- --- --- As a conference I was attending nearby was soon to wrap up, I placed a pickup order from Mazra so I could scarf down lunch before meeting up with a friend. I was inside the building for approximately 6.2 seconds to grab my bag and then walked about a mile to my hotel where this was consumed. I share that detail with you to illustrate that it's not like I ate this the way god intended. And yet, upon the first bite hitting my lips, the delay in consumption proved to not matter. I really don't know how this managed to be so amazing. Was it the bread? Was it the chicken? Was it the fixins? All of the above? Either way, I loved every bite and the sauces that accompanied were great too. I think one was a little light garlic mix and the other was something with an orangeish hue. I enjoyed taking pretty much every other bite alternating sauces because they were very different but equally enjoyable. Mazra's excellent Yelp rating is very much earned and I am glad I got to experience it!

    So delicious! The beef/lamb combo over rice is always good, and the roasted cauliflower appetizer is also such a treat! The sides of hummus and tzatziki are also really good.

    I absolutely love Mazra! I have been several times to the RWC location and hope to go to their San Bruno location soon. Even though the cutlery, water, and complimentary tea are self serve and you order your food and drinks via a QR code, the hospitality of the staff is attentive and quick. Also the online menu has pictures for us visual eaters! It's located on pedestrian-friendly walkway with both outdoor and indoor seating but parking is a bit difficult during peak dinner time. I have tried the double kebab plate, the chicken shawarma plate, the roasted beet salad, the whole cauliflower, the grilled lamb chops, the garlic rotisserie chicken, the basmati rice, the French fries, garlic potatoes and nearly all the dips from the hummus to the tzatziki to the baba ganoush. Not a single entree, salad or side disappointed. Every single item I've tried here has been fantastic, perfect texture whether it's crispy or creamy, fresh, delicious and a generous serving size portion. The hype isn't just hype, it's the real deal authentic (and 100% Halal meat) dishes from the Levant and Mediterranean that are prepared over 100% mesquite wood that you can smell it in the air if you dine inside. There's a reason the lines are long here for dinner and especially for Eid. May this restaurant continue its success inshallah

    Wow wow wow, Mazra deserves all the hype! We came for Easter dinner and were prepared to wait long, but they are super efficient and the food is excellent. We ordered the dip trio, whole cauliflower, and 2 kebab plates to share (which was plenty for 3 people). Everything was so good and very filling. Some highlights were the tzatziki, GARLIC POTATOES (trust), and the filet mignon cause it was very tender. They also have complimentary spiced tea which was the perfect end to my meal. Besides the food, the interior is beautiful and everyone is so attentive and fast. Seeing restaurants thrive in Redwood City makes me so happy and proud to be in the peninsula! Total: ~$80

    Mezze platter, always a hit!

    A+ food, service and environment! Everything i have had has been exceptional! The whole cauliflower, halloumi cheese rolls with honey, the beef kabobs. All so flavorful and on point! There is always a BUZZ here cuz Everything about Mazra is that good!

    Visited for a weekday dinner with my * Located on bustling & pedestrian-friendly Broadway, easy to find street or lot parking & within walking distance on Caltrain station * Restaurant has ample patio & indoor seating, indoor had great decorations that caught our eye in every direction * Ordering is super-easy & convenient via QR code pasted to each table * Online menu has photos, making it easy to understand what you're ordering * Self-service water & cutlery makes it easy to grab what you need Our food orders were served quickly & every dish was delicious. The Fatoush salad was tasty, & the fried halloumi with honey was amazing! Definitely recommend and can't wait to try more dishes!

    Baba Ganoush Dip, Tzatziki Dip, Roasted Beet Dip, Hummus Dip
    Jolene H.

    Came here on a Friday night around 6:30 and the place was packed. The wait was around 30 minutes, which honestly felt shorter than expected given how busy it was. Water and tea are self serve and you order through a QR code. Service seemed really busy but they were still pleasant. The lamb chops were a standout -- super tender and flavorful. The chicken shawarma was also very tasty. We also ordered the set of dips -- I particularly enjoyed the beet dip, which I haven't tried at other Mediterranean restaurants. We also ordered the whole cauliflower as the pictures looked interesting -- it was very tasty but probably good for a one-time try. Overall amazing spot, just need to plan a bit around the time you arrive to avoid a long wait.

    I am Mazra's #1 fan! If you're a garlic lover like me, this place is essentially a pilgrimage you have to make. Pro-Tip on timing: To skip the massive lines, my boyfriend and I swear by hitting the lunch rush before noon or grabbing dinner right at 4:00 PM. If you show up after 5:00 PM, be prepared for a solid hour-long wait. The silver lining? Their hospitality is top-tier, they'll keep you hydrated with water and tea while you wait. The Vibe: The RWC spot is gorgeous with tons of natural light, and the patio is perfectly shaded (plus, they have heaters for those chilly winter nights). The Must-Haves: Double Kebab Plate: Trust me, pay the extra $2 for the filet mignon. It's worth every penny. The Sides: The falafels are life-changing, and the hummus and tzatziki are non-negotiable. The Drink: You need the Raspberry Mint Lemonade. I'm usually not a mint person, but now I can't imagine a meal here without it. Words really don't do the flavors justice, you just have to experience it for yourself!

    Is there a long wait for a table for 6 on a Saturday night?

    It depends. We've been there on Saturday nights and sometimes we get seated right away, other times its like a 30 minute wait. Which is not bad considering how busy they get.

    Mazra specializes in Levantine cuisine, a subset of Middle Eastern fare encompassing dishes from countries like Jordan, Lebanon, and Syria.

    No, halal restaurant. However, BYOB is fine

Unfortunately, as expected, skewers aren't great for takeout since by the time I got home the red meat skewers were already a bit cold/stiff. I'll probably come back another time to try them fresh in house, especially since my dad was really happy with them! We decided to try the bacon lychee one specifically because it's a really weird combo. I wasn't the biggest fan (it tastes exactly what it sounds like though, lol), but my dad thought it was pretty cool so I'd recommend trying it. I also ordered the fried salt/pepper green beans on the side, but wasn't a big fan. I think these were also impacted by doing takeout since by the time we got them the fry was not that crispy. Overall, I'm sure it's a great pick for dine-in, but not so much for takeout.

I had a roast beef sandwich with the top bread dipped in au jus sauce and a Caesar salad. It can be a little intimidating ordering - the people there seem to expect you to be quick/decisive and to know what they're going to ask before they ask it, so there's a bit of impatience at times. And there are so many choices that it can be a little overwhelming. But the many choices are good. It's like an elevated cafeteria setup where the meats are freshly cooked and just look better than you might expect. The beef I had was cooked perfectly and tender and bitable in a sandwich without you dragging out the whole piece trying to take a bite. The Caesar salad was fine, nothing special. It's premixed, so the lettuce leaves are a little soggy, but the flavor is OK. Overall, good comfort food and the prices are reasonable for what you get. Happy to have tried it again after all these years.

The bacon was overcooked and dry which I should have taken a picture of. The bun used was a sesame seed bun and made a mess every time I grabbed the burger from the seeds on the bun. The burger comes with bbq sauce on it but I chose to add it on the side. The seasoned fries sounded great but was really salty and was one of the worst fries I've had in a while. I had ranch dipping sauce so I dipped there many times to combat the over power seasoning. It did the job to fill my stomach, but I wasn't satisfied.
