    Beef & Lamb Kebab ( Side )
    Felicia C.

    My family went here right when it opened and we were seated right away. I wish I could give it a better review because the server was so kind, but honestly, the food just wasn't good. Avgolemono - This was the only decent thing we got here. It was a lemon rice soup with chicken. I liked the slight bitterness from the lemon rind in the soup and it was a great appetizer. There was also a decent amount of chicken. Beef Koftedes - This dish was so inconsistent. Each meatball tasted completely different. Essentially, this dish was meatballs covered with BBQ sauce. Some of the meatballs insanely sweet while some were not. It almost had the consistency of meatloaf. I did not like this. Lamb and Beef Kebab - For $11, they gave us 2 small pieces of meat which was very disappointing. The meat was just ok, nothing terrible but not good either. It was a lot more dry than most kebabs I have eaten. The only thing that was good was the addition of tzatziki. Overall, I would NOT come here again. Although the server was helpful and kind, the food here was just not good.

    Manti ( beef dumplings )

    Such a great discovery! Capo is a delightful, well-designed, tasty Mediterranean eatery that's quick-service style with all the friendly care and customer service of fine dining. Parking is a little tight at peak hours but has a private lot that it shares with the other storefronts on the strip. There is a modern all-gender bathroom that is clean and well maintained. The restaurant is clean, tastefully decorated, and enjoyable with lots of natural light and windows and both indoor and outdoor seating. I appreciate the visual menu which made it easy to pick something to order (except everything looks good which makes it harder). I ordered the beef koftedes plate (~$18) which comes with a pomegranate BBQ sauce, rice, salad with a light vinaigrette dressing, warm pita slices, yogurt dip. I also tried some of my sister's chicken kebab plate which was delicious. We also tried a plate of manti for the table ($16) and it was sooo good! Tiny bite size dumplings in a yogurt and sundried tomato sauce. Will be back again for sure...I'm curious about the seafood offerings!

    Smoky babaganoush - Definitely worth ordering this side!!!!

    Review had 4.8 in Google - Had to try the place. It did not disappoint! We had Spitfire Beef & Lamb (RICE) Small serving of meat but the flavor made up for it! My husband was not fond of the pink dressing - I on the other hand, I found it refreshing. Yoplait dressing with a light taste. Beef Koftedes (RICE) It wasn't dry! Seasoning was spot on! The portion was a good amount! Smoky babaganoush - Definitely worth ordering this side!!!! My husband inhaled it! And the pita bread was light and airy and fresh!!! Check this place out if you are in the area!

    I would like to thank Mr Emre very much for his attention; everything was incredible. I particularly recommend the chips and salad.

    Spitfire Beef and Lamb (SALAD)
    Sheila E.

    Great lunch spot! There's a few bar tables and a few regular tables inside. There's also some outdoor tables. Spitfire Beef and Lamb salad was delicious and quite filling. You get a choice of 3 different dressings; I chose the pomegranate dressing. It also came with this pink dip for the lamb. I couldn't really taste the lemon pepper from the lemon pepper fries but the sauce it came with was really good. Also got the hot sauce which was also really good and had a nice kick. We were told that everything, including the sauces were made in-house. I'll definitely be coming back!

    When did you guys start doing business?

    Have you re-opened yet? I'm hoping to place a small catering order for an event on March 26th! I've tried calling but haven't had any luck getting in touch with someone.

    Hello Mary! Yes we will be open in a week or so please give me a call at (650) 521-4868 my name is Serhat

    Only gourmets know the difference between ground beef gyro and steak beef gyro. I ordered 2 times from Capo and 1 time I had a chance to get steak beef gyro, the other time I got ground beef gyro. Which beef type do they use in their gyros usually?

    We use Yaprak gyro!

I like my cheese and mushrooms so the mantarli pide was the highlight for me. The mint tea is also my fav. Just the right amount of honey. Will need to come back for a Turkish coffee.

    Very good food, beautiful space, good service. We had:…read more 1. bread (served with oil and herbs before the food arrived, then served without oil during the meal). This was a good bread, round and splittable like a pita, served hot from the oven and sprinkled with some seeds (I think sesame, although I didn't pay close attention). 2. Meze Trio: patlican ezme (roasted eggplant, bell peppers), haydari (garlic yogurt dip with mint and dill), girit (ezine cheese with pistachios, oregano, olive oil). Loved the eggplant--tender and tasty! The yogurt dip was good, but I couldn't eat large amounts of it. The cheese was ok, a bit too heavy for us. 3. Ahtapot (grilled octopus on lime mashed potatoes and paprika butter). I didn't eat this, but the kids liked it. The octopus seemed very tender, and the potatoes were good. 4. Roka (arugula, diced cooked beets instead of tomatoes, honey mustard). Good, but the creamy dressing made it feel a little heavy after a while. 5. Mercimekli imambayildi (lentils-stuffed roasted eggplant). Imam bayildi translates as "the imam fainted" (because the dish is so delicious, maybe?). This was excellent. The eggplant had a wonderful smokey, roasted flavor. The lentils were good. There was a garlic yogurt moat around the eggplant. 6. Kunefe (shredded filo, melted cheese center, syrup, pistachios, scoop of Maras ice cream). Very good, maybe a bit too much for the three of us, maybe better if split four ways. Located on the corner of San Carlos and El Camino. Street and lot parking nearby.

    Nick the Greek is one of those places we order from at least once a week, usually from either the…read moreFoster City or San Carlos location. We genuinely cannot pick a favorite because both are consistently excellent. Our regular order is the chicken gyro salad, loaded with fresh greens, tomatoes, cucumbers, pickled onions, hummus, tzatziki, and a generous portion of chicken gyro meat. Everything tastes fresh, the meat is flavorful with those delicious crispy edges, and the spicy sauce adds exactly the right kick. It is filling without feeling heavy and somehow always hits the spot. Both locations have been remarkably consistent with quality, portions, and flavor. When you find a meal this reliable and satisfying, it naturally becomes part of the weekly rotation.

    This location in San Carlos was one of my regular stops when I lived in the Bay Area, and it…read morequickly became part of my routine. 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.

    I need to talk about this place because it was genuinely great…read more I ordered the Greek salad with hummus and pita, and everything tasted fresh. Not fresh from sitting in a cooler. Fresh like it was made right then for me. The hummus alone was worth coming back for. The guy at the register was one of the warmest people I've dealt with at a restaurant in a long time. No script, no fake customer service voice. He seemed legitimately happy I walked in, and that's not something you can train into someone. It's just who he is. One more thing that stuck with me. I watched him come out of the bathroom drying his hands with a paper towel, so I could see he'd actually washed up. Sounds small, but you'd be surprised how often that's not the case at restaurants, and it's an instant dealbreaker for me when it isn't. The bathroom itself was spotless too, which tells you the whole place is run right, not just the parts customers usually see. Fresh food, real hospitality, and a clean operation. This is the kind of place you want to find and tell people about. Highly recommend.

    We had an overall okay experience, but the food didn't quite live up to our expectations…read more The ambiance was decent (3/5). The outdoor seating area has a lot of potential, though it feels like the space could be used more effectively. The indoor seating was much nicer and had a better atmosphere. One highlight was the gentleman working there, who was warm, welcoming, and genuinely kind throughout our visit. His hospitality made the experience more enjoyable and left a positive impression. The salmon was probably the biggest disappointment. It seemed a bit overcooked, was served slightly cold, and was missing some of the buttery richness we were expecting. The chicken and beef souvlaki were both good and enjoyable, but they weren't particularly memorable. The fish and chips, unfortunately, fell short. The fries weren't very crispy, and the fish itself lacked flavor. Overall, nothing was terrible, but most of the dishes didn't really stand out. The friendly service was appreciated and helped offset some of the shortcomings in the food. We'd be open to giving the restaurant another try, but based on this visit, it was closer to a 2/5 experience for us

Next choice was Pasha, with a covered patio & hookah lounge, as well as a large open space inside. The lemonade cost $7, which I wasn't willing to pay unless it was at least 20 oz. Iced tea isn't listed on the menu, so I asked. Made of freshly brewed real tea the day, it was quite welcome. The tea was served in a cut/molded glass pineapple shaped glass. Truly practical: good grip, less likely to slip. Uncommon, but attractive. I ordered the salmon wrapped in lavash bread, minus onions & mayo. I asked for hummus bi tahini instead. There was lettuce, cucumber, & unripe tomatoes (It's tomato season, folks, but most restaurant produce suppliers just sell for bulk, not necessarily peak/in season. That's a different, more costly supplier) inside the wrap, the char-grilled salmon just right. I'd say that even if I had eaten earlier.

The staff was pleasant, the food was true to its eastern Mediterranean roots. While ostensibly Turkish, there were Armenian and Greek elements (erm, both done wrong by the Turks).

Customer service really sets the tone for the whole experience, and unfortunately the staff interaction alone was enough for us to decide to leave instead of staying to dine in.
