Burnt falafels from a to-go order  Threw them out
Debbie T.

Updating my review of my last visit. Mazra isn't ready for prime time. Give them time to work out the kinks. What I said in my recent t 5-star still stands. It was for dining-in. What they got wrong during the same visit was the to-go order that I placed at the counter. I wasn't able to process a to-go order on tbeir site. They got my to-go order wrong 3 times while I was there. The 1st mistake was serving me one of my 5 items on a plate at the table. We had just finished dining-in. The redo of the to-go shorted me 3 things. Even tbe waiter thought the bag was missing part of the order. I got a polite bums rush from an owner when I got the food to-go the 3rd time. Assuming they got it right. I left without checking the bag. Got home and one item was missing. Plus, falafel were burnt. It was the straw that broke the camels back. Hence, this part 2 review. I'll go back. Hopefully, they'll work out the kinks. I don't see the crowds dying down. Glad they finally reopened.

The shawarma fries are loaded with a lot of toppings, and extremely worth it for $16. The half rotisserie chicken could have been juicier, but still tasty regardless. They give generous portion of each food item

First time. Help yourself to the to-go items and serve yourself for plates, napkins and silverware. Good variety on the menu. Flavorful, hearty portions. Casual setting. Definite must visit. time. Casual vibe. Help me yourself to the dishes

Chicken Shawarma Plate
Monina T.

I've been eagerly waiting to visit the San Bruno location, and finally, my chance arrived! It was quite busy, so we parked down the street-which was no problem at all, since I knew I'd be walking off the big meal I was about to enjoy. The hostesses were fantastic, seating us down immediately. We ordered through the Toast App, and I chose the Garlic Rotisserie Chicken with rice, salad, and cucumber dip. -Everything arrived beautifully prepared, though I didn't get to try the cucumber dip because my dining companion preferred it over their hummus--a perfect trade, since the hummus was also superb. My daughter went for the Chicken Shawarma plate, and she was so enamored with her meal that she nearly finished the whole thing, despite eating like a bird. Clearly, she devoured her food. The remodel is beautiful and very cozy.

This spot lives up to the hype. The plates are beautiful and delicious. The hummus, tzatziki, and toum dips are super flavorful. The pita bread is piping hot and fresh. The shawarma loaded fries are so loaded with meat, sauce, and condiments. Must try-shawarma chicken, kofta kabobs, roast potatoes, and hummus.

Perfection. You can't fault anything. I've been waiting for them to reopen and it was definitely worth the wait! The new remodel is stunning - it felt like Scottsdale vibes I tried the Halloumi Cheese Roll appetizer and loved. My go to order is the Chicken Shawarma Plate that comes with your choice of two sides and pita bread. The chicken is perfectly seasoned and grilled. The delightful smell of the grill that you smell when you are walking in? You can actually taste it in the meat!! The rice is amazing and I can never get enough of the garlic toum and hot sauce that it comes with. The problem is picking the sides! I love the Arabic salad, tabbouleh, which both add such a refreshing taste to the plate but I also love the hummus for the pita that it comes with and the tzatziki is a must. The fries are also so crispy and good!! The price is so decent for the amount you get - one plate usually equals 2-3 meals for me. Their system is genius. You can order through a QR code when you get to your table and they have everything you need on the side (water, complimentary tea, utensils and take-out supplies) but they also have servers walking around checking in and taking your plates so it doesn't feel like a completely self-serve experience. Love love love Mazra - so happy it's open again!

I really like the cleanliness and atmosphere of the restaurant. It's definitely a nicer looking establishment. I came on a Wednesday night around 7 pm and there was about a 30 minute wait for a table of two. They provide warm tea while you wait, which is nice because it's usually cold and windy in San Bruno. You place your order with a QR code and they have several areas where you can get water and utensils yourself. It's a bit hard to flag someone down but not impossible. The food was good and I'd come back.

Delicious food, and VERY good service. Their salads and dips will satisfy the vegetable enjoyers in your group - but the meat dishes really shine. Looking forward to coming back to try more of the menu. Oh the tea is excellent!!! Do not skip!

Tabbouleh and tzatziki
Ruchi J.

San Bruno has sorely needed a place like this! Free hot spiced tea while you wait, coupled with all the Mediterranean options you can handle! Very veggie friendly and delicious. Make sure to try out their signature drinks as well! Great for friend dinners, corporate events, or date night.

Falafel Mezza Sampler, best way to try everything they offer
Philip B.

Heard ALOT of good things about this place and had to check it out with my wife for date night. Very busy but the wait wasn't tooo long. You order thru your phone and the food is brought out promptly. Food was fresh and huge portions! They have a great variety of different dishes and it's Byob!

Linda M.

Every item on the menu is outstanding! The roasted cauliflower is my favorite. I'm not sure how they get it so tender and flavorful. We also had the branzino and lamb chops. Everything was seasoned to perfection! The new remodel is gorgeous. It's so convenient to be able to order at the table now. The staff are kind, upbeat, and eager to please. I'm so glad they reopened!

We tried Mazra for the first time after hearing so many good things, and honestly the first attempt didn't even work out. The electricity went out while we were ordering, so we had to leave without getting anything. We ended up coming back the next day because we really wanted to try it. I'm glad we did because the dips were so good--definitely the best part. Super fresh, really flavorful, exactly what I was hoping for. The drink we got was really good too. We also got the grilled veg bowl with oyster mushrooms, rice, falafel, and cauliflower. It was fine, but I feel like it could've used a little more flavor. It just didn't stand out as much as the dips. The restaurant itself was very cute but very busy. I would come back, but I wouldn't order that bowl again. I'd stick to the dips and try something else next time.

The vibes, the people, and the food at MAZRA are on another level take it easy Habibi

Has the San Bruno location reopened? If not, is there an estimated timeline for reopening? Thank you!

Their website has two different dates (one being this month, February 2026) and another last fall (October 2025). I know that the reopening date has changed on Yelp a number of times and it currently says their San Bruno location will reopen next… Read more

Do we need reservations?

I don't think they take reservations. Typically, this is how it goes: You stand in line, place your order, they give you a number and you wait till they have a table for you. After sitting at your table with the number given, they give you a… Read more

Do they serve wine and or beer?

No beer or wine

When is the RWC location opening?

As of a couple days ago, they had a sign at the San Bruno location saying "2024." But since they previously said December of this year, I would guess January/February 2024 is likely?

Tabbouleh is indicated "GF" on their menu, but isn't Tabbouleh traditionally made with cracked wheat aka Bulgur? Does anyone know if they actually use a gluten free sub (ex. Millet or quinoa)?

Hi, I suggest contacting the restaurant directly to ensure you get the answer directly from them. Emphasize that you are on a gluten free diet. Enjoy!

Does this place accept Apple Pay?

Yes!

Has the temporary closure started yet? We were hoping to go on Sunday (1/15).

If you mean Saturday 1/14/2023, I believe their open. However, I highly suggest calling them directly to confirm. Enjoy!

Are you open on Christmas Eve?

I hope not

Does anyone know how their party platters are served? For example, the chicken shawarma rice tray - is the rice on bottom with the chicken on top or do they come in different trays?

It comes in one tray with the chicken on top of the rice!

Is the meat halal?

Yes

Any gluten free options?

yes! The menu clearly identifies which items are GF. Many of the meat entrees and sides are

Is there outdoor dining here?

Yes, awning covered in the front with heat lamps if I remember correctly.

Do you cater?

Yes! Visit the website at mazra.com and hit the catering tab :)

Is indoor dining open? We are senior citizens and don't take to the cold very well. Thanks.

Yes there is indoor dining!

Do you have gluten-free options?

Yes, you can order a salad with choice of meat/fish/chicken, and they have lots of veggie options too. Try it :)

Do you have any halal options?

It's actually all halal :)

Do you take reservations?

No they do not. However the wait time is never that bad

Regarding the family packs, are they enough for five ppl? Is the deluxe one bigger? Also, are food in general spicy?

Regarding the family pack it all depends how you eat and if they are all adults. For sure 4 adults will be satisfied. It's a little bigger. Not spicy and amazing food :)

Are pets allowed on the outside patio?

Absolutely! We love fur baby’s.

Dining available for Easter?

Yes! Open regular hours. Thanks !!

We came here about a month ago and what a wonderful surprise this place was…read more Pretty empty on a Friday night and I'm not sure why. Great ambiance for a group party or date night. The happy hour menu was pretty awesome as well. If you aren't interested in food but looking for a place to get drinks, the cocktails here are also on point. South San Francisco is a stones throw from where we live and even though there are some solid casual spots, we don't find too many places in this area where you can get amazing food, craft cocktails, and this kind of ambiance. With that being said we were ecstatic to discover this hidden gem. It checks all the boxes!! We ordered the Caesar salad, pozole, burger & Fries, and beef tacos from the happy hour menu. Everything was so good and I am not just saying that! The Caesar salad came served with slices of avocado. Not traditional, but absolutely delicious and nicely dressed. The burger was beautiful and juicy and cooked to perfection. It came served with those french fries that have that extra layer of crispiness.on them. I call them 'next level fries' because that's what they are. My favorite thing, hands down, were the tacos. Oh my God... the tacos!! There are a lot of great Taquerias in the Bay Area but this place can contend. I'm serious. Perfect crispy tacos that came served with this beautiful salsa verde. Truthfully we ordered so much food but the tacos were so good we got another order of them. I ordered a Paloma and it was the perfect drink to go with my tacos. This was our first and only time eating here, but this will definitely be a regular spot for us. I hope moving forward this place stays as wonderful as our experience was tonight. It's such a joy to have an experience like this that doesn't require us driving to San Mateo or San Francisco. It's about time we had places like this in this area. The staff that helped us was also wonderful. The young lady who served us was friendly and helpful with the menu, the bussers were great and there was another lady who checked in on us and helped us throughout the meal. Great service, great staff, terrific food. Please keep up the good work.

We ordered a few small plates to share, which was the perfect way to experience a little bit of everything. The chicken taquitos were flavorful and perfectly crisp, the beet salad was fresh and beautifully balanced, and the short rib empanada was rich, tender, and absolutely delicious. Every dish felt thoughtfully prepared and well executed. The interior gives off upscale, luxury vibes without feeling stuffy, and the cocktails were the perfect complement to the small plates. Everything from the ambiance to the service made it feel like a special night out. We will definitely be back!

I had just dropped my parents off at SFO and wanted a quick bite nearby. I saw this on Yelp and the…read morephotos of their doner stopped me cold. Most spots in the Bay selling doner use that cheap ground meat you get from wholesale distributors. The photos here showed actual layered beef so I had to try it. I opened up the 220g wrap and it was just meat, tomatoes, and fries. That's it. I was skeptical. How good could something so simple be? Holy crap. The meat was tender and juicy, seasoned perfectly, and despite how simple the whole thing was I inhaled it in under 5 minutes. Most other places douse everything in sauce to compensate for dry, chewy meat. Not here. It didn't need any of it. Everything just worked together. The layered meat is also sooo rare to find done right. Other spots that do have it usually serve it dry and chewy. This one nailed it. Service was really friendly and kind. Can't wait to come back!

The sandwich option allows a bread to absorb the meat juices which is a nice touch. Jalapeños come on the side. Recommend adding a little salt on top of those jalapenos and then adding into your sandwich if you like a little spice. This will be a new staple in my list. More people should be coming here. Also, in case anyone is wondering, they accept credit card.
