    This review is "Solely" for the Falafel (only). It was one of the best I have ever tasted! Crispy but not so much that it hurts the top of your mouth and the inside was soft

    Well its been about 5 years since I was last here..wow time goes by quickly. I would say more or less it is still the same kind service and food that you would expect from before. However when I was here it was owned by this lovely Palestinian couple, and my understanding is that they have retired. However the new owner/ partner is very nice and the food was good. So if you are looking for a nice Arabic/ Mediterranean infused place, come here to this place in San Carlos!!

    Finally I made it there and no regrets, I loved that place such a nice people are making delicious food

We shared three plates and I would agree, it's not going to stuff you full, but the quality is of the dishes were all very good! We began with the complimentary olive oil/balsamic dip with a bread that resembled pita (google says its probably called bazlama). The bread was heavenly! It was fluffy yet chewy and came out piping hot from the house oven. Wish we could get refills on this! The first of our ordered dishes were the stuffed cabbage rolls which were definitely a labor of love. They were chock full of flavorful beef and rice and served over a bed of garlic yogurt. It was hearty and comforting! The second dish was the Sucuklu pide which featured the turkish sausage, cheese, and an egg yolk to spread all over. It was like a breakfast pizza of sorts, delicious! Last but not least, we had the octopus. That was an absolute star! It was tender eand paired perfectly with the mashed potatoes with paprika butter. I would absolutely welcome a return trip to try more of the menu!

I came in this past Saturday (in the rain and recovering from surgery) because I just needed to be at my favorite restaurant. The moment we walked in, they greeted us warmly and still remembered us, even though we hadn't been in for about three years. That kind of care means everything. The food is unmatched. The lamb is incredible. The potato appetizer with the meat sauce is our all-time favorite. The shrimp on the combination skewers are huge and full of flavor. The warm bread and perfectly cooked rice make every meal feel comforting and special. The service is amazing, the family who owns it is so kind, and the whole place has a welcoming, homey vibe. There is no Afghan food around here that compares. This will always be our favorite spot for special occasions. If you haven't been here yet, you're missing out.

Order the rice, get the rice, and eat the rice. Often times if I'm trying to be carb conscious of skip over the rice, but we ate all the rice that came with our meal. We kept saying, " this rice is so good". It was a bit nostalgic, kind of like my grandma and mom's rice. A rich rice full of flavor. We ordered one appetizer sampler plate, one chicken kebab plate, one steak kebab plate, a side of fries, and knufa. Between three of us, it came out to about $30 per person. Ever so slightly on the pricey side, but larger quantity and very filling. Fries: 5/5 none left at the end Sampler: 3.5 babaganoush was excellent, everything else was ok, falafel was very sesame seed forward. Meat plates: 4/5 tasty, really appreciate how they took them off the skewer for serving, good, but nothing extraordinary Knufa: I'm a hard critic here because my family makes in my opinion the best :-) didn't really love this one. Cheese was not stretchy, was rubbery. Tasted very much like a wheatie (the cereal). Service was five out of five. Even 10 out of five! They were very friendly.

There's something about being able to grab a fresh meal, sit outside alfresco, and just enjoy the California weather that makes everything taste a little better. Nick the Greek always delivered exactly what I needed--quick service, fresh ingredients, and food that felt satisfying without weighing me down. That consistency is what kept me coming back again and again. My go-to order was the gyro salad with pork belly, and to this day I still think about it. It was light but filling, bright and balanced, and never heavy. Crisp lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber, olives, feta, tzatziki, rice for substance, and warm pita on the side. I would always swap the red wine vinaigrette for the lemon herb dressing, which tied everything together perfectly. It was, quite simply, the perfect salad. Every time I ordered it, I told myself, "You really should learn how to make this at home." And every time, I didn't--because it was just easier to let Nick the Greek do it for me. What I appreciated most about this location was the reliability. You could walk in hungry, get your food quickly, and know it would taste the same as the last time--fresh, clean flavors, generous portions, and no fuss. That's harder to find than people realize. I moved away in 2023, and now that salad lives in my memory as one of those simple pleasures that made everyday life a little better. If you're in San Carlos and looking for something fresh, fast, and consistently good, this place is a solid choice. And if you find yourself sitting outside on a sunny day with a bowl and a piece of warm pita, take a moment to appreciate it--because someday you might move away and miss it more than you expect.
