    Very beautiful restaurant in Sunnyvale. I came in a party of 6, and I was also excited to visit a Middle Eastern restaurant. The complimentary bread was very addicting. One of my friends and I totally devoured it. For the main course, I got one of the kebabs. I felt it was overpriced for what it was worth. Kunefe for dessert was excellent! It's a dessert that has grown a lot on me, and I love the sweet cheesiness with the crunchy, crispy phyllo crust.

    Wonderful service and the food is so well balanced and light! Highly recommend the köpoğlu (eggplant) and any of the kebaps!

    After reading the high marks of Meyhouse, I thought it'd be difficult for this restaurant to meet my expectations. It did not. It WELL EXCEEDED them! Meyhouse had it all: the gorgeous establishment, the levels of flavors, and the utmost fine-dining experience you rarely find nowadays. What I'm talking about is this.... Aside from the obvious stuff like your server being courteous and responsive with ordering and delivering dishes, our Meyhouse server made sure to *time* our courses to our eating pace so plates didn't arrive too quickly. He also watched our wine glasses like a hawk, but from afar and respectfully, so he could glide over to refill our glasses without interrupting our conversation. Some times I didn't even know he came over; I'd just notice my glass was refilled! Same with finishing a dish or needing water or looking up... anything! Also, between courses, someone not only removed our plates and utensils (including the ones lying on the table, which were unused), but also they came by to clean off the table of crumbs before bringing new plates and utensils, and then the next course. (They did this twice, and our jaws hit the ground twice too.) Because we were there for a special occasion, our dinner lasted 3 hours and there were times we had paused eating because we were just talking, so staff sometimes came by to see if we needed our plates cleared. If we hesitated to answer because we weren't sure if we still wanted to eat some more, they smiled and slowly backed away almost as if embarrassed for getting it wrong. They were adorably sweet. We appreciated their proactiveness and attentiveness! We ordered 2 desserts to share, and there was a mix up where someone brought them out too soon -- without the candle for the birthday boy. I was disappointed by this because I asked our server to please be sure to include a candle, but I looked over and saw that he did a "double take" at our table, hustled to the kitchen, and swiftly returned with a lit candle on a complimentary scoop of ice cream. He even sang! So even though there wasn't the expected candle on our dessert, he did some quick thinking and fixed the error with an additional dessert -- and song! It was brilliant. Honestly, I'd sing Meyhouse's praises over and and again. They did everything right! **Random Things to Note** - Reserve time for parking. There's a lot across the street, but on weekend, it can be tough and take some time, so plan for that if you have reservations. - Corkage fee is a steep $35, so be prepared if you bring your own bottle! - If you order dessert, and you should also order Turkish tea. As a tea connoisseur, I think it compliments the desserts so well. (It's the temperature, the flavor, and yes, the cute little cup and saucers!) - I loved every dish (and bite) I had, but if I could only choose 1 dish, I would choose the eggplant with yogurt appetizer. It is seriously the dreamiest savory cold appetizer I've ever had!

    Shout out to Mert, the assistant manager, and Bonnie, whom I spoke with on the phone for their friendliness and warm hospitality. I booked their tasting menu for a celebratory meal for my parents and they were kind in assisting me for this special occasion including prepayment. Communication was easy and they were enthusiastic and seemed to care to ensure my parents enjoyed the meal. Photo is from my parents who commented that they enjoyed the food and from the photos they sent me seemed to have a beautiful variety of flavors and offerings. Thank you Meyhouse!

    Arguably the best Turkish restaurant in the Bay Area (endorsed by Turkish colleagues). Waiter was very helpful in explaining the dishes. Food was obviously great. Chill ambiance on a weekday lunch.

    Great food and vibe inside the restaurant. Full bar and pretty packed with tables and people.

    This is a great addition to San Ramon's night life!! An upscale Turkish restaurant with amazing performers and just a place to relax and enjoy quality food!

    Excellent food and outstanding service. The Köpoğlu appetizer was a standout, and both the chicken and Alinazik were excellent. Keila at the bar was friendly, professional, and made great drinks, while manager Sarper ensured a wonderful dining experience. Highly recommend this restaurant -- I'll definitely be back.

    Came in hungry to celebrate a friend's birthday, left sooooo full, mostly because I could not stop myself from demolishing 4-5 massive pieces of their soft, airy bread (yes, they refilled without us even asking!). Honestly, zero regrets. While the bread kept us satisfied, mains did take a little longer to come out after the apps, but the food made up for it. Funny enough, the two dishes I expected to like the least ended up being my favorites: the eggplant dip and the chicken skewer. The chicken was insanely juicy with a slight char that hit perfectly, and the eggplant dip was so creamy from the yogurt with perfectly roasted eggplant. I would go back just for those. The octopus was super soft and basically melted in your mouth, though I did wish it had a bit more of that classic bounce. The tenderloin leaned a little too rare for my preference, but it was still very juicy and not overly gamey, which I appreciated. And of course, we had to get dessert. We ordered a baklava, which was definitely on the sweeter side. It satisfied my sweet tooth, though I've had flakier, more delicate versions elsewhere. To celebrate my friend's birthday, the servers also gave my friend a complimentary scoop of ice cream and sang happy birthday to her. 5/5 for the service and the delicious mains, I'll be back!

    Prix Fixe is offered at lunch
    Monica S.

    Enjoyed another meal at Meyhouse. For lunch we ordered from the prix fixe menu: Köpoğlu (roasted eggplant with peppers and tomatoes), Adana Kebap (has a $3 surcharge, ground lamb), and Baklava for me and Ahtapot (has a $9 surcharge, grilled octopus), Locum ($7 surcharge, tenderloin slices), and Kunefe ($2 surcharge) for her. Everything was cooked to perfection, except for the Turkish rice which was somewhat undercooked. Our server quickly rectified the situation by giving me another bowl of rice which was better, but had some uncooked grains. Bathrooms are clean and have electronic toilet seats that were warm on this very cold day.

    Came here January 3rd 2025 when they opened at 5:00 p.m. the place was empty but not for long. the $20 kardies guvec tasted delicious with shrimp in a tomato base covered with cheese in a baked dish. The shrimp was to die for fresh and tasty with the tomato base sauce accentuating the taste. The d$38 dollar veggie alinazic presentation was excellent with sliced squash tomatoes and beets along with cooked onions. Not something that I would order but the wife loved it. Not sure if any vegetarian dish is worth $38. The $38 Adana with a single kabob of minced lamb rib together with rice and mixed vegetables. A bit pricey for what you got, but the lamb was delicious if the portion was on the small side.. The bread rolls came complimentary with the dinner and was so good that we ordered two servings of them. So delicious and so addictive, I couldn't help eating them stuffing my mouth and raising my blood sugar.

    Sebzeli Alinazik tenderloin over eggplant labneh
    Luis D.

    Came here for a birthday dinner. Located in heart of DTSV, close to the large parking lot and some street parking nearby, Very nice and classic decor, with a long bar along one side. The apps were great, smoky and tender octopus and tasty hummus. The bread was fresh baked, a cross between a biscuit and pita. Beef kebab over labneh was excellent, tender and rich eggplant below. Great service and hope to return if I'm ever in Sunnyvale again.

    Sohrob H.

    Truly feels authentic, the food is very flavorful and delicious. The service is pretty quick and at least at lunch the restaurant was pretty quiet. Each dish is consistently well prepared and made with care. I'd definitely suggest their kababs, they were not greasy, you can tell it is good quality meat.

Nahita Bakery operates a humble storefront with large glass display cases showing off their delicious baked goods, fried pastries, and stewed meats and vegetables. As a first timer, it was a feast for hungry eyes! We came in on a weekday afternoon and were hankering for a snack before dinner. The staff welcomed us in and gave us a quick introduction to their offerings. My mouth was already salivating at the sight of the golden brown pastries and at the mention of olives and cheese, I was committed! We ended up getting a coupe of their items including achmas (pastry made with sweetened dough) and pogaca (pastry made with buttery dough) - one filled with olives and one with the feta cheese. We also got a borek (pastry made with phyllo dough) with ground beef and asked to be cut up so it can be shareable. The olive achma was fragrant and soft when torn into. The olives were flavorful and distributed well within the bun. The feta cheese pogaca was flavorful and was layered into bun. I think it would have tasted even better warmed but it was delicious nonetheless. The distribution of the cheese could have been better to better fill my mouth with those flavors. The borek was a star but too heavy for one person to eat. The fried dough was crispy and paired with the ground beef made for a hearty snack to go with something warm to drink. The other pastries and entrees looked good and although we didn't have the stomach space for it this time, we know we will be back when we are in the area to try something new. Perhaps we will get to try their coffee next time! Overall, Nahita Bakery does an amazing job bringing their Turkish culture through food to the South Bay. Their quality of work is shown in the food's presentation, ingredients, and flavors and the clean open dining space elevates the dining experience here whether you're in for breakfast, lunch, a snack, or dinner. Their large parking lot shared by other small businesses is fantastic for those looking to get in and out on some errands. If you haven't had a chance to try some Turkish pastries, you are in for a treat at Nahita Bakery!

It definitely could have used the coleslaw and pickles promised by the menu but they weren't in evidence. That was the problem with the falafel wrap, too: the menu promised hummus, cabbage & tomatoes salad, and pickled turnips, but those ingredients weren't anywhere to be seen. There was some lettuce instead, but lettuce is a poor substitute as it just becomes immediately soggy and adds no flavor. If you've ever had falafel in Israel, you will be disappointed by the falafel here, unfortunately. (Israeli falafel shops each make at least a dozen toppings from family recipes, so you put as many veggies and sauces in as you can to create a flavor party in your mouth.)

As someone who likes Turkish food, this felt like a strong contender. Food: We started with the lahmacun which is made up of a thin Turkish flatbread topped with ground beef, tomato, onion, pepper, and garlic. It was beautifully thin and crispy, with just the right amount of topping. Honestly, add a small salad and you've got the kind of lunch that makes you feel satisfied. This lahmacun is one of the better versions I've had which made it extra tragic to learn it's a lunch-only situation. Why gatekeep happiness to daytime hours? For my entree, I ordered the Alinazik which was grilled tenderloin skewers over eggplant labneh. The beef was tender and the labneh was creamy, savory and a tad smoky. I saw that they offer a $44.95 prix fixe menu, which sounds great in theory, except for the small catch that everyone at the table has to commit. A bit of a "we ride together, we prix fixe together" situation which may not work depending on your dining companion(s) dietary restrictions. Atmosphere: The space is bright, airy, and stylish. The high ceilings resulted in lots of natural light, and a large bar that quietly suggests, "you could have a cocktail or two." One slightly odd note: The bathroom lighting is very dim. Like... "is this ambiance or did someone forget a switch?" kind of dim. Not a dealbreaker, just a curious contrast to the otherwise well-lit space. Overall: A solid pick for Turkish food in Palo Alto located off Emerson and a successful group lunch choice (I will be taking full credit). I'd happily come back to explore more of the menu. I'm already eyeing the Pirzola (bone-in lamb chops) or the Filet of Levrek (branzino) and maybe lobby for all-day lahmacun.
