    Chicken pita
    Serena C.

    Been meaning to try Zaza. Every time we went to the Green Enchilada, we would walk by the restaurant. So we decided to try it today. We ordered to share: French Fries. Hubby ordered Chicken Pita meal and I ordered Beef kebab meal. To drink, we each ordered, Turkish coffee (strong and bitter), Turkish Tea (light) and coke. My favorite part was the rice and salad, well aside from the beef. Beef was tasty. Honey's chicken was ok. Not too dry. But it would be less dry if they had some sauce. Like me, he loved the rice. We would definitely go back especially since the service was awesome.

    Clockwise: Gyro Greek Salad, home made bread, and Lamb Kebab (Highly Recommended)

    Zaza Grill is scrumptiously delicious! From the front of the house to the waiter the service was by one person who did a phenomenal job tonight 7/29/25. He was so friendly and his hospitality was the most considerate I have experienced in the restaurant business. We ordered Gyro Salad, Lamb Kebab and Dolma appetizer. The salad, rice and hummus on the lamb kebab plate was delicious, best I have had. Gyros on the salad were very salty. It's only preference. If you like more salt, this would be perfect. Ambiance was homey and comforting.

    *** 3.5 stars *** Visited over the 4th of July weekend and I'm going to have to agree with Cherylynn N's review from 9 months ago. Doesn't seem much has changed as far as salt level and under seasoned hummus. Party of 9 and staff very welcoming but otherwise, very basic service. Food was decent but living in the East Bay, there's a plethora of Middle Eastern food that I prefer as items are seasoned better and delivered hot. :: Lamb/beef gyro wrap - most the table said they enjoyed with no leftovers :: Chicken Kebab Plate - 3.5 stars - dry pieces and sister said the rice was salty :: Kofte Kebab - 4pcs - 3 stars - salty, room temperature food. Hummus was eh and not flavorful with the highlight of the dish being the salad. I basically ate 1 kofte and boxed the rest. :: Combo gyro plate - cousin devoured but it didn't look appetizing and looked dry. :: Complimentary Turkish pide bread - cut into 2 inch pieces - fresh and fluffy :: Complimentary dessert: Kazandibi - caramelized milk with pistachio had a great flavor but texture was very firm. I was expecting more custard-like texture but it was more dense. Zaza Grill is a small spot with traditional music playing. Overall, seems like the gyro wraps are the way to go as everyone enjoyed them. Appreciate the complimentary dessert! "Pacifica Cousin" footed the bill - nice surprise and treat. Average price/person with t/t: $24 without drinks Located in a strip mall with plenty of lot parking.

    The Appetizer Sampler
    Tracy G.

    Zara Grill serves delicious Mediterranean food. I have never been disappointed. The service is friendly & attentive. Try the appetizer sampler! It is delicious.

    The lamb kebab was awesome! The people and experience was great!! I will be coming here more often.

    Incredible restaurant with super delicious healthy food, great service and affordable prices. Definitely a place to come back to. Cute interior. Super delicious tea.

    Lamb Kebab
    Tessa V.

    Such a lovely place with delicious food and even better service! Everything was yummy, and you can definitely tell they care about their plating. Our server (maybe the owner) was so friendly and kind to us, and even offered us Turkish tea on the house! Very nice interior and music. We enjoyed the experience eating here and would definitely come back!

    Zaza Mix Grill

    I ordered the Zaza Mix Grill and it was absolutely inedible. The meat smelled rotten -- like it was completely spoiled and not fresh at all. I could not eat a single bite. This was a disgusting experience and a total waste of $27. I strongly warn everyone: do NOT order from this restaurant. If I had known about the food quality before, I would have never placed this order.

    Falafel wrap
    Terry B.

    Picked up lunch here today. Cute very clean restaurant polite employees. I ordered the beef lamb gyros and the falafel wrap. Tasty beautifully prepared I will be back!

This restaurant in San Bruno had one of the best meat and lamb dishes I have tasted in the States. First off, the service was friendly and respectful. Ercan welcomed us and made me feel at home right away. It was a pleasure chatting with him and sharing stories. The Beyti was even better than what I expected. I already love Adana Kebab, and this took it to the next level. My girlfriend got the lamb shank, which was perfectly cooked. Lamb can be hit or miss, and this one was done just right, with the meat falling off the bones. The baklava was fresh, and not dry. It was the cherry on top of a unique experience. We were staying at a hotel nearby and did not expect to find a hidden gem like this in the neighborhood. The ambiance was also pleasant, with soft music and clean air.

Service is great, the folks that work there are always super nice and attentive. Seating is limited but can be a short wait when there is no lunch/dinner rush. I usually park at Smart & Final's parking lot and had no issues. There is nearby residential parking as well.

Food…read moreand hospitality like this can be hard to come by out here, so we decided to give it a try. We walked in tired, cold, hungry, and facing a long drive home. And then everything just... felt right. The music immediately set the tone. The way they said hello. The way they took our order. The way they talked with us. There was a warmth in the room that you could feel right away. At one point, they all stopped to sing happy birthday to one of their staff members. Instead of feeling like we were watching someone else's moment, we somehow felt included in it. They even shared a slice of cake with us. My husband started speaking Kurdish with them. He speaks Sorani and they spoke Kurmanji, so they communicated however they could, in Kurdish, in English, and with lots of smiles and laughter in between. Watching him connect with people who made him feel at home was really special. Then came the tea and kunafa, which were absolutely incredible. We hugged them, took a photo together, and by the end of the night, it felt like we'd known them for years when we'd only just met. I left feeling warm and loved. My husband left feeling nostalgic. We both left feeling restored. There's something really beautiful about sharing cultural food and hospitality. Sometimes you walk into a restaurant looking for dinner and end up finding something you didn't even realize you needed. For me, it felt like I got to witness a little piece of my husband's family and culture right here in California. And somehow, by the end of the night, it felt like a little bit of ours too. We still talk about Ciya often, and honestly, we're already talking about having them cater a future family gathering

The service was amazing, making the overall experience even better. Definitely worth visiting

Let's start with the service. Our server was incredibly attentive from the moment we walked in. We were handed menus and then asked if we preferred still or sparkling waters - we opted for the latter. Next, he politely made some recommendations to the more popular items on the lunch menu. We went with his suggestions and he did not disappoint! For two people, we shared the following two items: * MEZZE PLATTER - hummus, babaghanouge, falafel, tabbouleh, and pita ($19) * BEET SALAD - roasted heirloom beets, carrots, goat cheese, honey thyme vinaigrette ($18) For our entrees, we had the following: * BEEF SHAWARMA WRAP - lettuce, sumac onion, pickles, tahini sauce, mixed greens ($19) * ROASTED SALMON - pacific salmon, turmeric rice, grilled broccolini ($29) Food was absolutely incredible. Fresh ingredients, simple preparation, Mediterranean fusion, and assembled thoughtfully without compromising nutrition. I am a fan. The restaurant is beautifully decorated with an inviting style for large groups, intimate fireside chats, or bar seating. They even have a pretty neat happy hour menu that I hope to check out one day. All in all, this is a top fav in South City. Looking forward to a future dining experience here!

Other wins are the prawn pasta and the branzino. One of my favorite restaurants in downtown SSF.

I did not eat anything else today, so the timing makes me very concerned that something I had here didn't sit right. What upset me even more was how this was handled when I called the restaurant to let them know. Instead of showing concern, the woman I spoke with told me that she ate the food herself and was "fine," which came across as dismissive and unwilling to even consider my experience. I understand that not every issue is clear-cut, but a response like that lacks basic customer care. At the very least, I would have expected some empathy or a willingness to look into it. Food safety and customer service both matter, and unfortunately this experience has made me hesitant to return.
