I recently visited Mediterranean Kitchen and was so impressed. The space is delightfully decorated and offers a heated patio as well as indoor spaces. We ordered at the counter then took our seats. Yes, the food was fresh, high-quality, and absolutely delicious. But what really sold Mediterranean Kitchen was their truly exceptional service! They brought our table complimentary pita and dips (Tzatziki, red peppers, and Baba ghanoush). When we finished our entrees, we were brought tea and chocolate baklava to finish off the meal. I think I'll be dreaming of that chocolate baklava for a while... :) The team at Mediterranean Kitchen did a great job providing a dining experience that is all too rare these days. I cannot recommend this restaurant enough. read more

From start to finish, our experience at Mediterranean Kitchen in Burlingame was phenomenal. The moment we walked in, the staff was welcoming, friendly, and informative, making ordering easy and enjoyable. The atmosphere was clean, inviting, and warm the perfect setting to relax and enjoy a meal. Our waters arrived promptly, and the appetizer came out in great time, followed by the main course with just the right pause in between. It gave us the opportunity to chat and truly enjoy the experience without feeling rushed. To top it off, we were served tea at the end and offered to-go boxes, with the staff checking in to make sure everything was perfect. Every detail was thoughtful and well-paced. We couldn't have asked for a better dining experience. Mediterranean Kitchen truly exceeded our expectations, and we'll definitely be back! read more

This place was amazing from the food, service and the attentive and very friendly staff. Me and my daughter came to dinner and we both enjoyed everything we ordered. I ordered the lamb skewers and my daughter ordered the chicken plate. The meat on both dishes were super moist and juicy. The rice, hummus and salad that came with the plates was very tasty and accommodating. We also order Greek fries and those were super yummy and a large portion. We received complimentary tea and baklava (chocolate baklava) OMG super moist and delicious. I never had chocolate - by far worth coming just for that. The owners walk around and make sure everything is good. They have covered eating area that is open but very comfortable with the heated lamps they have. I will definitely be back again very soon read more

Met up with a couple of ladies for lunch at Mediterranean Kitchen in Burlingame. We were looking for a reasonably priced restaurant kind of between Santa Cruz and San Francisco and this came up as a reasonable choice for all of us. We got here at about 11 on a Sunday and didn't know what to expect, but, given the high rating on Yelp, we figured we couldn't go wrong. Yes, it was pretty good, but it was the service that made it a four star (would've actually been five stars if I was only rating service). This is a casual order-at-the counter dining establishment. They bring the food to your table when it's ready. I ordered the lamb wrap and it was good in flavor, but a bit on the dry side. It could've used a lot more tomato, cucumber, lettuce, and tahini sauce to make it moister or maybe the lamb shouldn't be cooked as long. Regardless, it was a bit dry for me. My dining companions said their choices were "good" too. The thing that made this a four star experience (pushing up to five, even) was the complimentary baklava and tea they brought us at the end of our meal! It was such a welcome surprise and so sweet! Not too many restaurants would do this! The baklava was a bit too sweet for me, but I just really appreciated the gesture and hospitality extended. I'd return just because they were so nice! read more

Great food and amazing service! We love Burlingame downtown and this is one of our favorite places to go for a no frill but delicious lunch! Also, a healthier choice if you are watching your diet!! Our usual orders are a Chicken Souvlaki plate, salads with added protein, and Turkish Tea. I keep reminding myself to try new things from their extensive menu but always end up getting my favorite Chicken Souvlaki plate! ;) The service is super friendly and fast. Your order at the counter and then grab a seat either indoors or outdoors. A couple of weekends ago, I came here by myself and was treated to some complimentary hummus with pita, baklava, and hot tea. Highly recommend this place!! read more

One of the best mediterranean restaurants in the area! I had a great experience here. Came here on an afternoon weekend which wasn't too busy. You order first and then grab a seat wherever. I like that they have plenty of seating options, whether indoor or outdoor. The restaurant itself was pleasant and inviting! I like that it's clean! The food here was quite delicious! The meat was very tender and juicy, not too chewy or firm. I enjoyed their Greek salad! It was so fresh. Also ordered their appetizer plate with different dip and I would high recommend! Everything was good on it. Their wraps were one of my favorite! So so good! The service was wonderful. They even gave us complementary Turkish tea and baklava. Very spot on! Everything was good. I definitely will be coming back! read more

It was a Sunday afternoon, surprised that his place wasn't crowded. Parking can be a little bit troublesome but there is a garage around the corner. The service here was great, they gave our table a couple of Turkish coffees that were delicious. I got the wrap with lamb and beef. It was great. I forget what the white sauce is called but I wish that it had more flavor. Other than that, would recommend to try if out if you are in the area. read more

Mediterranean Kitchen - Turkish coffee - Mediterranean Near Me - Burlingame, California

Can't say enough good things about Mediterranean Kitchen! Downtown Burlingame has a few Mediterranean food options but I always end up choosing Mediterranean Kitchen. The staff is great and friendly. I went for lunch with my family and they gave us pita bread, hummus, Turkish coffee and Turkish Delights on the house to try. All the food was delicious. My go-to is the Beets and Greens salad with gyro meat. The ingredients are fresh and the dressing is light yet flavorful. They are generous with the portions of meat when you add it as an add-on. I like how you can order/pay using the QR codes on each table. I always prefer sitting in the outdoor sitting area that's shaded, especially on a day with good weather. read more

Amazing Food! Mahammara is super good. The Lamb was tender and tasty. I ordered the Mix combo grill and it was amazing. The service was impeccable, with great attention to details. My wife mentioned it's my birthday while we were paying in the counter. It was a surprise to get a cake after dinner. We also got the hot tea and baklava. We will be back and recommend to our friends and family. Thank you. read more

Decent ambiance. My husband got the salmon wrap and enjoyed it. My entree (I think it was the combo gyro plate) was disappointing - the meat was very dry and just piled up in shreds on the plate. Didn't feel like we got value for what was paid. Also, I told the host that we had made an OpenTable reservation and to note in their book, only to later receive a message from OpenTable saying "sorry that you didn't keep your reservation." I responded that we certainly did show up, told the host about our reservation and that I would produce the meal receipt if necessary. That matter was favorably resolved but if I ever return to Burlingame, I don't think we'll return here. read more

Let's start with the ambiance. Absolute 5 out of 5. The restaurant is bright, airy, filled with greenery and is clean. Service? Can I say 6 out of 5? The staff is so friendly and attentive and it comes across as genuine. We also got a little Turkish tea and desserts at the end of the meal. Perfect way to end it! The food? So delicious and portion sizes are huge. We also got a pita sampler plate before our food came out with three dips/spreads on a plate. Honestly not sure exactly what they were but my goodness they were DELICIOUS. I cleared them with a fork once the pita were gone. We came with the kids and they enjoyed their food and the TVs that had cool videos about Earth and the ocean. Held their attention and it was really educational too. Looking forward to coming back here on a date night. Truly one of the best dining out experiences I've had in a long while. read more

This place has improved, I think. Had a forgettable moment here, years ago, but went this past weekend-- and it was fabulous. The front patio decor is such a Mediterranean vibe that it transports you there before you even get to the counter to order your food. They manager sent us some extra desserts and tea, which made us feel very welcomed and appreciated. Love the "hot sauce" (oil?) on the table. Outside HEATERS for the those chilly winter evenings in the Bay. I'd walked by this place a ton, and maybe eaten there once, but now it'll be a staple every time I visit that area. read more

I loved the food at this place. We ordered the Hummus Chicken Gyro and Hummus Lamb and Beef Gyros. Both of them tasted pretty good. There was a good amount of protein and Hummus in these bowls. We also ordered the Adana plate as well. It is a must for kebab lovers. I loved the Adana kebab and the lavash bread that comes with it. We also ordered the Greek fries. They were okayish. We got 3 complimentary hot teas and 2 Baklavas on the house. I will definitely come and visit this place again. read more

We came here for first time and ordered two salads with chicken. It took them over 30 minutes to bring our food out (keeping in mind simple order). Everyone who came after us was getting their food. They apparently lost our "ticket" and paid no attention. Water also dispensed too slow, ice in the ice box half melted. Food was just ok. Not worth 50 dollars for bland salad with chicken. There is another Mediterranean place on the avenue next to crepe vine with better food and service read more

Ordered on DoorDash, and man on the phone was pretty rude, it was unwarranted as I was a regular customer calling for assistance with an order. I asked for them to add hot sauce to my bag for an order that was placed on DoorDash. Order arrived and no hot sauce. Just reconfirms that his poor attitude and emotions is getting to his customer service or lack there of? Maybe don't work there if you're unhappy? Food is good got the lamb kebab, but much rather go to a place where I don't have this type of interaction read more

Was craving Mediterranean food so decided to go to Mediterranean Kitchen! (Also, will note that I've had this spot on one of my Yelp lists for a while now so it was great to finally visit!) There were a lot of open tables inside, but the outside seating was super cute as well so we settled on one of those tables. I love that you can either order at the counter or find a table and use the QR to order straight from your seat with your phone. Service was very quick - I don't think we waited very long for our food at all! I ordered the Chicken Gyro Plate, my husband ordered the Lamb and Beef Gyro Plate, and my friend ordered a salad with salmon. We all decided to get Baba Ghanoush, Falafel, and French Fries for the table to share. Everything was delicious and serving sizes were generous for the price. My favorites were the Baba Ghanoush and Falafel! The Falafel perfectly crispy on the outside and so soft and fluffy on the inside when it was fresh - definitely best eaten when it's first served hot. Staff was super kind as well - at the end of our meal they offered us tea and some small pieces of Baklava! We were sitting there for a while catching up so it was a perfect end to our meal. Would highly recommend - you'll love it! read more

Came for an early weekday dinner pickup and there was no line around 4:30PM. They told us the food would take about 10-15 minutes, but I feel like it came out in 5 minutes. The menu on the wall is huge, which made it super easy to review -- loved that. Staff was very friendly. Restaurant looked clean. There's both indoor and outdoor seating. It's kind of like a mix of fancy casual. Fancy enough for a date or group meal spot, but casual enough for families and drop ins. Everything we ordered was tasty, fresh, and the pita was fluffy. I really liked the thinly cut meat. It was cooked well, flavorful, and not greasy. I will definitely be back for hummus bowls. I love a good giant bowl of hummus with yummy toppings. I would caution about the lentil soup. It's tummy, but spicy. Considering most other dishes are non-spicy, this one caught me by surprise. We originally ordered it for a toddler who loves lentil soup, but didn't realize this one is a tad too spicy for little kiddos! read more

Dropped by to eat several times now, and they have improved on their portions and their quality. I can now vouch for this place. My go to is their Gyro plate. Really like the larger portions, the fresh salad, and the hummus that comes with it. Other Mediterranean places don't come with hummus and are the same price with smaller portions. The service when you dine here is spot on. Really quick and nice. read more

Early dinner. Good food. Cute place for a quick meal. All authentic. The lady who took our order was very nice. Had the Stuffed eggplant platter that came with rice and salad. Tasty, ate it all gone.

Accidentally found this little gem after walking out of a close by restaurant. The sidewalk dining was the first attraction. The dining area was laid back and the food looked great. We ordered at the counter and we're given a table number. The awesome server brought us our food in no time. My coworker and I each had the gyros combo (chicken and lamb) with rice, salad and pita. Everything was absolutely delicious. We felt welcomed and continued our table talk well past our meals. The server then brought us some baklava on the house and we talked even longer. Then the server brought us some tea, also on the house. He was a great server to begin with but the hospitality he gave us made us want to go back. He asked where we were from and advised us to come back and try their Turkish coffee. I can't wait to go back. Do not hesitate to try this place. It's a winner all the way around. read more

I love the food here but unfortunately I went on a Saturday and ate there. The waitress with the long black hair is nothing short of unpleasant. I asked her for a to go container and before I was able to ask her for something else I needed she didn't let me get more than one sentence in before she abruptly turned around and walked away. Unfortunately she didn't this to me twice. I truly hope that management reads this as I have been coming to this restaurant for a year now and don't feel that I want to return because of this rude and unprofessional behavior. read more

If it's a Friday night and you have a hungry family or group to feed, look no further than Mediterranean Kitchen! We had a group of 7 including 2 little ones, so finding a place where they would be contained and also not bother other patrons was of utmost importance. This place fit the bill! I had the rainbow salad with shrimp and arugula -- it was everything I could have hoped for in a light and tasty dinner. I also partook in the table fries with feta - yum! My nephew loved the chocolate cake - who wouldn't? And the rest of the family shared the baklava - fresh and authentic! As always, parking in this area can be a challenge, but this place is worth the walk! The tables in the back were perfect to contain the kiddos (although the wine bottles proved too tempting for the 1 year old - sorry he made music of them!) read more

OMG I had the best time at this place and would definitely return again. Not only was the service excellent, but they also checked on me frequently to make sure I was enjoying my experience. I love that they also offered a variety of mediterranean cuisine, from Greek to Turkish. I ended up getting the tzatziki appetizer that came with warm pita bread. Also got their fried cheese rolls because I'm a big fan of sigara boreli, esp. when it is served with a side of more tzatziki sauce :) For dessert and to go, I got the kunefe. The gentlemen who waited on me was not only handsome was so sweet to bring me a small dessert appetizer with two sweets made of pistachios. It came in a cute little Turkish dish covered in evil eyes. I didn't plan on eating everything but it was all so good that I didn't have any leftovers. The tzatziki was my favorite; the labneh was so creamy and perfect-paired very nicely with the warm pita. The sigara boreli were also very good. I love that they came in different lengths, but equivalently delicious! Highly recommend if you're in the Burlingame area. read more

I had a delicious lunch here. You order at the counter, then they bring the food to you. I had the Alexander - gyro meat over toasted/grilled pita squares, covered in a tomato sauce and a side of yogurt sauce. It was heavenly. My only wish is that the tomato sauce was warmer. I had to eat it really fast before the entire dish went cold. The chicken lemon soup was perfect, with lots of chicken. Service was prompt and nice. I love that they bring you their in-house hot sauce. They also offered to turn on the space heater if I was too cold sitting on the patio. I wish I lived nearby, I would definitely return. read more
