I just had a delicious lunch here! I came here with a group of friends, but I informed the owner that I was the only one eating and he graciously welcomed us! I checked out the menu beforehand so I already knew I wanted to try the Nomadic Pide. I really wanted to sample the Mezze Combination too, but I thought it would be too much food. To my pleasant surprise, the owner brought us a complimentary mini Mezze Combination platter to try! It was served with soft, freshly made sesame bread and I thoroughly enjoyed each bite of the platter. It included hummus, 2 kinds of babaganoush, cucumber salad, white beans, lentils, 2 kinds of tzatkiki, ezme, and pickled red cabbage. I then tried the pide, which I've never had before, and it was so good! It's like a crispy calzone...thin dough on the top and bottom with a blend of melted cheese and spiced vegetables inside. They have other ones that contain beef and sausage too, which I'll have to try next time. I was very impressed with the food and hospitality and will definitely come back with my family! I hope this place stays open because it is a true gem!!! read more

Great on all fronts. Food was awesome, great friendly service. If I lived nearby it would be a regular thing

Family owned, authentic, clean, inviting, tasty food, family friendly. The team is really hard working and goes out of its way to make each customer feel welcomed. The bread with sesame top is heavenly! The kids enjoyed the falafels and the soft chicken kebabs. The Nomadic pide was delicious! We'll try the desserts too next time. read more

By far the best Turkish food in the Bay Area in this price range. Appetizers are yummy and clearly made in-house, lahmacun is thin, crispy and with right amount of fat, kebaps are all juicy and have good portion sizes. They come with both rice and bulgur pilaf, both authentic style. kunefe and katmer are top notch. folks are nice and attentive. read more

Incredible food! Every single component of our meal was delightful. The owner was so welcoming to my family and shared with us about the unique and thoughtful ways that the dishes are prepared. The restaurant felt very cozy and our server was very attentive. We are so grateful we ran into this little Turkish restaurant, it will certainly be a new family favorite. My dad is already talking about coming back tomorrow. Everything we got was seriously amazing but our favorites were: mezze combination platter, lentil soup (I have had a lot of lentil soup in my life and this was the best), the house bread is terrific and unique, and the kebabs (beef and chicken) were phenomenal!! My dad was so impressed! We were just stopping through the area for a casual bite to eat and were invited in for one of the best dining experiences I've had in a long time. The restaurant is an exciting new addition to the area, I believe it will do very well. Thank you for such a refreshing and warm experience! read more

I had the most delicious and delightful lunch at Nomadic Kitchen. Highly recommend you eat here soon! We started with a sampling of their mezze and everything was just so delicious. Their hummus is exceptionally flavorful, the red pepper spread mild and delicious, the cucumber salad so unique and delicious. The ezme spread might have been my favorite on the plate- spectacular. We also loved the white bean salad. To top it off, it was served with this amazing seeded focaccia-like bread. A nice change from the standard pita that you may find in other restaurants. We shared the beef and lamb kofte entree. It was really great and served with a grain dish, a delicious pilaf and a refreshing green salad. We will return soon and often. I'm so happy I finally tried this restaurant. read more

Ate for the first time here today. An amazing addition to the RWC food scene. Incredible food, really friendly owner and good service. I got the mezze sampler and the kofteh kebab along with a really nice dessert. Also killer tunes playing. Highly recommend! read more

We found this restaurant mainly due to its great reviews.When we went to the restaurant I was apprehensive due to the limited menu options. Then the owner welcomed us in such a friendly way that we couldn't say no and went in. The complimentary bread basket with dips is delicious.We ordered the Nomadic Pide, which we thought was alright, nothing great. We also tried the cheese pideh, and that was much better. We then ate the kofte kabab, which was good. However, the best things we ate there were the beef kabab and the lamb kabab. I honestly don't know how they make it, but these were the best kebabs I have ever eaten- so tender and juicy with a smoky flavor of charcoal BBQ. They were so delicious that I literally cannot wait to go back for the kababs read more

Nomadic kitchen is an amazing addition to this block.

Chicken kabob, everything good except I didn't care much for the dark brown grain side, ask for either more salad or rice or bread instead.

I was looking for to rate this place for a while now. We rarely go out to eat but my father is a true foodie so when he visits from Florida I am sure to take him out to a good meal or two. This place was recommended to him by a friend and it did a lot of justice! The waitress was quite nice as well. All very friendly staff. Quick to order and a very well versed menu as well. Tasty dishes with lots of flavor and seasoning! They even gave us a sweet dessert at the end of our meal which I thought was very thoughtful and generous. Overall, we were quite impressed. read more

The food was average but there was no service. We were feeling unwelcome the whole time. After we ordered,w have to ask for water. It was as if we need to beg them. My daughter explanation is that we were not welcome because we looked Asian. The Snow the worst experience we have had in the last decade of eating out. read more

New place but warm and welcoming. Mixed kabob plate was delicious. Also warm bread served. Indoor and outdoor seating available. read more

I think the staff and food are some of the best in the South Bay. They even accommodate dogs and will bring them chicken to eat.

Delicious food and warm, friendly service! We loved all the wonderful mezzes and are excited to go back!

Awesome meal!! Just a light dinner: we split the kebabs (lamb and beef), but both were so delicious, tender, and flavorful. We were initially just going to get two orders of lamb, but the Chef/owner Hassan (a lovely & very friendly gentleman) insisted we try the beef as well, and it's a good thing we listened!! We had a nice chat with Chef Hassan as well about his cooking and his journey. Staff are very friendly and it was obvious everyone has pride for their business and food. We will definitely be back, and highly recommend Nomadic Kitchen! read more

My Turkish father said this is one of the better Turkish restaurants he's been to. We had the appetizer sampler (the big one). It was more than enough appetizer for 5 people. Also had kebabs (beef, chicken, lamb kofte special) & a lacmahun. All were very good. If you want reasonably priced good quality food in a casual sit down restaurant with great outdoor seating, give them a try. read more

Adding a few photos from my recent visit. Still love this place and the little family that runs it is so sweet! The cucumber salad is incredible and the owner said it's made with Turkish pomegranate molasses - definitely a must-try! read more

Best Kofte kebab I've ever had. I was skeptical at first because Dish N Dash (where I normally get this kind of food and usually great) didn't have a good tasting Kofte kebab. So I thought I wouldn't like it, but now I'm always going to order a Kofte kebab, especially from here. Also the owners were very nice and bless them for allowing my party to stay 30 minutes passed closing. Great food for great value. Love home cooked style food at hole-in-the-wall restaurants. I'll definitely be back! Highly recommend this place. read more

My new favorite restaurant! We had the mezze combination plate, falafel, garlic fries, kofte kebab, lamb kebab, and nomadic pide. All the dishes were fresh, flavorful, well presented, and had generous portions. The complimentary bread is also so addictive, and a perfect pairing for all the dishes. The owners were serving us, and were incredibly sweet and personable! They have an outdoor dining area that was perfect for a summer night. I highly recommend this spot to go to with the whole family or a date night. I can't wait to go back! read more

We stopped in a bit late for lunch, so we were the only people there. They were so attentive, nice, and just overall wonderful. And the food was AMAZING. We got hummus, mint tzaziki, falafels, and some kebabs. Everything was fresh, the presentation was very nice, both the chicken and the beef kebabs were cooked perfectly (both tender and seasoned well). The only thing that would be better is if this restaurant were in my town! If you're around Redwood City, you should 100% eat here - next time I'm even close to that part of the Bay Area, I'm going back. read more

Outstanding! Our party of 9 had a fabulous meal tonight. Every dish we ordered was delicious. Our favorites were the kofta kebob and the chicken kebob as well as the lamb and beef pide. The kebobs were the juiciest have ever had. The owner and staff were incredibly welcoming and friendly and made us feel like family. Make sure to try the desserts, especially the kenafe. You won't be disappointed with anything here. We can't wait to go back! read more

Great food and very good customer friendly. Everything was delicious. The place is very inviting

Incredible food! I eat a lot of Mediterranean food and I appreciated this place a lot. The food was incredible and was served with house made bread and pickled cabbage and cucumbers. Service was top notch which can be hard to come by these days. The owner gave us a lot of free things to try! Everything was delicious and we will definitely be back!! read more

What a wonderful addition to RWC local gem. We were casually walking around downtown Redwood City and stumbled upon a very early soft opening of an amazing restaurant that I wanted to share with you all. The Nomadic Kitchen serves delicious Turkish food. The owner, Hasan, is full of stories, energy, and is incredibly inviting. I highly recommend trying their Lahmacun, a variety of pides (floating pizzas), and we had a mixed platter of kebabs. Everything was SOOOO delicious. For dessert, we ordered Kunefe, and it was out of this world. I can't wait to go back and try more of the delicious dishes Hasan will be offering. read more

I've been waiting to come here with my friend since they opened. I'm not sure what the owner was going for in terms of ambiance but if didn't seem like much changed from the previous owner. It was clear though their focus was on the food. We started with tree pink lady, it was a delicious mezze, a perfectly balance of rich, spice, tangy flavors and texture served with fresh baked bread. We had a good discussion with the owner, he is super proud of his food offerings and for good reason! We then had beef and lamb kabob dishes. Both delicious but the best was my favorite, you must try! Hassan, thank you for your hospitality, I love your energy. We will be back! read more

The food here was amazing! We got the dip platter, and the owner added on samples of all the other dips, including ones he was still workshopping. They were all delicious, and the flavors were different from most other Mediterranean places I've been. I especially liked the one with red peppers. The portions were also very good, so the value of the food was great. I know Mazra has been the buzzy new place in rwc, but Nomadic Kitchen is just as good and just flying under everyone's radar. read more

Super friendly owner/chef and excellent food. The sampler plate was a delight! Will definitely come back.

We had the best experience tonight at the Nomadic Kitchen! The food was delicious (we loved the kabobs!), and the owner, Hasan, made our time there so enjoyable. All of the appetizers were yummy; try the ezme and babaganoush! It was super cute inside, and the patio was delightful. A great addition to RWC! read more
