We've been coming here a lot lately this was probably our 7th visit in the last 4 months and we just keep loving it more every time. The food is seriously so good, always fresh and full of flavor. You can really tell they put their heart into it. The vibe is super chill and cozy, and it's nice to see how they keep making little improvements to the place. I'm not into big chains at all, I'd much rather support local spots like this. Places where people actually care about what they're serving and it shows here. The team might be a bit shy, but they're really kind and you can tell they're passionate. Portions are BIG, so come hungry. And yeah, sometimes you might wait a bit, but that's because everything's made fresh and honestly, it's totally worth it. I keep coming back again and again, and I will continue to. Skip the fancy overpriced spots and just come here for real, honest, delicious food.

Absolutely amazing food! This is the best Mediterranean food I've had in a long time. The service is fast and patient, treat you like family. The restaurant has ample indoor seating, with great spacing. Will absolutely come back again!

Pita!

My dinner here was pretty amazing. I am not usually on this side of town , but found myself nearby on Valentine's Day. For dinner , my wife and I chose to share an entree after we saw how much food was included on each plate -while spying on the table next to us. We started with a charcuterie board of pita bread and hummus. The pita bread was warm and fluffy, and the hummus was smooth and creamy. This was a good starter to get things going in the right direction. For our entree, we chose the chicken and beef kabab plate that came with a ton of fluffy basmati rice and a garden salad. Oh, and don't sleep on the roasted tomato- that thing went well with the meal. I liked that the chicken and beef were tender and full of flavor. The service was excellent and the entire staff was friendly and inviting. If I ever am back in the area, I will gladly stop in again!

Okay so this place was definitely amazing surprise. Went here on November 11th during lunch time around 12:30 p.m. with a friend. Coming into the space we were greeted with a big smile from the hostess and some very nice background music that was coming from the bar area. As we sat down we were handed menus and our server came to greet us and asked us if we had any questions and if this was our first time at the restaurant. We definitely said yes and he gave different recommendations based on what were the most popular dishes. As we were catching up we totally lost track of time and the waiter came back to us a few minutes later and asked if we were ready to order, we were not. And we really appreciate it that he said it with a smile and was like no worries I'll come back take your time. So when we finally decided to order we got the sampler of the hummus, my friend got the mixed meat kabobs plate, and I got the special which was the lamb shank. Let's start off with the hummus the three trios that we got the original was definitely our favorite followed by the mint and then lastly the one that was a little bit more sweet can't remember the name of that one but again the traditional hummus so so so good. The plates themselves were breathtaking as you can see in the pictures that I tagged along with this review. They were huge ample serving of rice protein and even the veggie on the side. Of course neither of us could finish the meal because of the amount of food that was on there and we were not sad about that because we knew you would have a delicious meal to have later on or as a snack LOL. Overall definitely enjoyed our experience, the food, and the soft ambiance in the restaurant. I do plan to go back when I'm in the San Jose Santa Clara area because I definitely want to take other friends here.

Koobideh (beef kobab) and chicken thigh Combo
Jacob S.

Stopped by Caspian for dinner and had a great time. I tried the koobideh and chicken thigh combo, Delicious! The meats were was perfectly cooked and really flavorful. The atmosphere is lovely, and the staff were both friendly and quick with the service. It's a great little restaurant that doesn't try too hard, and the food speaks for itself. I'll definitely be back.

My wife had a double date with another couple at Caspian. We were craving kabab, and this place is now our #1 spot. The food is amazing, and we love their kabob. Their portions were very generous to the point of needing to pack our leftovers. Staff members were very friendly and helpful. I do like the ambiance, but it was hard to read the menu since it was a bit too dim (I'm getting old).

Beef kabob

I stopped by on a Sunday for lunch. The place was not full. Beef kabob was my entree. That came in good quantity. Beef was flavorful. Mediterranian sampler also came in excellent quantity. Everything was really flavorful.

I came here for a work lunch and surprised how it was empty because the food is amazing! Great portions on the protein, flavorful rice and salad. I even have leftovers for a second serving! Highly recommend if you're looking for a well balanced meal!

Kashke Bademjan
Nat P.

I've been coming here for a while, and every visit is consistently excellent. The place is clean, spacious, and welcoming, with a fantastic staff that's always friendly and attentive! They give great recommendations too! This time, we started with kashke bademjan that was recommended by our lovely server and it was absolutely delicious! Wowwww. The puréed eggplant combined with the caramelized onion was light, flavorful, and perfectly complement it by warm pita bread. Honestly, I think it's even better than baba ghanoush! For my entree, I went to the filet mignon with beef kabob again and it tasted the same as the first time I had it. The meat was incredibly juicy, tender, and bursting with flavor! I also appreciate the generous portion. It was served beautifully on a large plate! You will have enough food so don't worry if you don't feel like you didn't eat enough. I had to take mine to go. Yeah I'm gonna start the other one. I just have one more and I'll be done. If you haven't tried this placed yet, you definitely need to!

Wow I can't believe I've never been here. This is probably the best Mediterranean place I've been to. The meat quality and taste is insanely good. The portions are huge and one plate can definitely be shared for two. I got the mix kebab which comes with ground chicken/ground beef with rice and salad. We also ordered the Kashke bademjan which is a like an eggplant dip with caramelized onions and it was delicious. The restaurant itself is very beautiful and nice. The service also very warm and friendly. I will 100 percent be back again and will be recommending this place to more people.

Ground chicken kabob (chicken koobideh)
Jenny Y.

So happy to have come across Caspian Restaurant in my search for a good koobideh place. Both the chicken and beef koobideh here is AMAZING. Super moist and perfect flavor. Love that it came with salad as well. Don't forget to add some sumac! Wonderful food, friendly staff, nice service, clean & comfortable environment...highly recommend and cannot wait to go again soon!

Since I typically order takeout, I haven't spent much time inside the restaurant. But I do like the clean, tasteful aesthetic. I also appreciate the staff, both for their friendliness and promptness. I've tried various meats and enjoyed them all; my favorites are the Pomegranate Chicken and Steak Shawarma. It's cool to see Döner Kebab on the menu, too. The different entrée types have varying portion sizes and levels of customization. My preferred type is the Plate, because of the balance of protein, carbs, & veggies. But I think most would like the options & size of the Bowl. On the more critical side, I do not think the Wrap Bites are worthwhile. The form factor & taste are good, but the portions are lacking. I'm also not a fan of the fries and wish I could swap with other sides. Some other thoughts on the menu. Entrées let you add on a lentil soup cup for free, so don't forget it! What you should forget about is the Dubai Chocolate... even if it's "cheap" relative to others, it's just not that good. Finally, if you plan to come here more than once, it's worth creating a free account. You can get some good discounts, including frequent Buy One Get One (BOGO) deals on the entrées. This, plus the consistency & options, make me return to SAJJ even if not the objective "best" Mediterranean in the area.

The service was also top-notch: efficient and speedy. We tried the tasting menu, and I'm so glad we did. Every single dish we tried was delicious, and we were able to try a whole range of dishes. The amount of food we got made the price worth it. By the time we were done with the cold and hot appetizers, we were already stuffed. They then brought out the entrees, which were so delicious we kept eating. And the desserts were the perfect finish to an already amazing meal. Special highlights were the manti with garlic yogurt, artichoke with poached shrimp, lamb chops with dill-potato wedges, and the baklava. I highly recommend the tasting menu if you want to try a little bit of everything - the variety in the meal was really enjoyable. I will definitely be visiting again!

The kebap I exchanged was half and half meat and burned bread cubes with yogurt. nothing else. The $65 a plate "lokum" was a couple of thin slice of meat with a scoop of mashed potato. The server did not like my $50 tip, stating 20% minimum gratuity, which came to be $90. After that insult and spending $590, the only thing we enjoyed was the pide. We will not go to any Meyhouse never again.
