CHICKEN SHAWARMA PLATE
Samantha G.

Ambiance: The restaurant is absolutely stunning! Service: The restaurant was busy in a Thursday evening. There were at least 5-6+ parties ahead of us. The wait was about 30 minutes. We had to put our name on the list and they called my name when my table was ready. Food: The food was sooo good! I loved the chicken shawarma plate. The house chai was also amazing! I'd definitely come here again!

A popular place for a reason - the food here is so good and a good value for your money! Came here with a big group of friends, no reservation. It was very busy on a Friday night, which was expected. Half our group did take out and the other half dined in. I split a shawarma plate and shrimp kebab with my partner and it was more than enough food, especially with the 2 sides. We got the fries and garlic potatoes. The fries were amazing, the garlic potatoes were just alright. The shawarma was nicely sliced and flavorful. I had some of our friend's branzino and that was so tasty - if I come back here, I would order that. Overall, the food here is amazing. I would probably come back during less busy hours if I'm ever in the area.

The food and service are always great, as usual! The lamb chops will always be our favorite and the dish we keep coming back for. They never disappoint. One small suggestion would be to have the utensils individually wrapped or covered for sanitary purposes, since they are currently exposed and can easily be touched by others. The same goes for the water bottles/containers that are left sitting open. Having them covered would make the dining experience feel a little more hygienic and give customers extra peace of mind.

BAKLAVA TRIO
Sam R.

We visited Mazra for dinner recently and it was a pretty good experience. The restaurant is easy to find and has limited parking available, although you can look for street parking nearby. The restaurant was spacious, nicely decorated and had a warm/welcoming vibe with fall themed decor. While the restaurant was quite busy, we were able to get seated outdoors on the heated patio. The host that seated us was kind and helpful. You can view the menu and order and pay via scanning a QR code or go up to the counter for assistance. The menu had a good variety of appetizers, wraps, sides, and entrees. We opted to share a double kebab plate with two sides and street fries topped with falafel. The kebab plate was good, seasoned well. I enjoyed the chicken more than the filet mignon. I also thought they could've included a little more meat, since we had a lot of rice leftover. The roasted potatoes were alright along with the tabbouleh. The banana date shake was sadly underwhelming. I was not a fan of the texture and I was hoping for a smoother consistency, and the oat milk influenced the overall flavor. We did enjoy the street fries, which were unique and delicious. I liked the falafel, it was crispy but had a nice flavor, along with the fries & toppings. We were quite full, and had some leftovers to bring home. I was curious to try the baklava trio and ordered some to-go. The baklava was okay, but a bit on the soggy side. I will say service was friendly and attentive in the beginning, but no one really checked in during our meal. Mazra has a self-service format, where you can grab water/tea/utensils and to-go boxes on your own. I just expected a staff member to stop by & check in after we received our food. We mostly enjoyed our dining experience and thought the meal was adequate. I would be open to trying additional items from the menu in the future.

When we the first time, the grill was on the side of the building so the smoke ended up coming into the car. We would find that smoke later produced some of the most succulent meat! I would get the Double Kebab plate, beef and lamb. Had this review and pics before the fire. _______________________________________________ Didn't realize how much I missed this place until the had a fire! Came to get my fix when they finally opened! They made some nice updates to the building as well as changes to the lines for ordering. The lines for ordering are now outside, making a lot more room for patrons inside. The food has not changed, tasty as ever! The Street Fries were good, probably better with meat. Can't go wrong with a Street Wrap good with the pickles! The Mezza Sampler - Beetroot was a nice surprise sprinkled with pomegranate! * STREET FRIES with Halloumi, Fries, Tazatziki Sauce, Tomato, Pickles, and Onions...$16 * STREET WRAP with Beef Kebab (+$1), Fries, Tzatziki, Tomato, Pickles, and Onions...$16 * FALAFEL MEZZA SAMPLER - Hummus, Red Pepper Hummus , Beetroot Hummus - Tzatziki, Baba Ghannoush, Pita & Falafel $24

First time at the San Bruno location after falling in love with the Redwood City location, and did not disappoint! Just like the other location, the service and ambiance were outstanding. We're big fans of Mazra, and the food was just as delicious as the other location. We ordered the filet mignon kebab plate with tzatziki and garlic potatoes, as well as the lamb with baba ganoush and French fries. Every single dish was delicious and packed with flavor. Can't wait to come back again! Just be prepared to wait a little on a weekend evening, but the line usually moves fairly quickly.

DOUBLE KEBAB PLATE
Emily G.

Heard a lot about Mazra so I had pretty high expectations. Came by on a weekend at 7pm and was estimated for about 30 min wait. They have a small parking lot and that was were most people waited. Inside is vibrant and nicely decorated Upon seating us, they gave us physical menus. To order, scan the QR code on the table. We decided on the cauliflower appetizer along with a double kebob plate to share which came with 2 sides. I like the idea of self serve water/tea station! Appetizer came out quickly. Whole cauliflower was flavorful with the tahini dressing but personally the cauliflower itself was a little overcooked for me. For the double kebob plate, we got the lamb and beef, both which were juicy and tender. The buttery rice was a great compliment along with the tzakiki and tabbouleh salad side. Pita was average. If only it was easier to find parking in the area

Vincent M.

Great place for a quick lunch and/or sit down with friends and family! Parking is limited with street parking options! Meat is well seasoned with lots of flavor - very tender and paired well with rice. Many options for drinks, sides(dips/bread), and even sauces. There is both indoor and outdoor seating. Staff was friendly and food came out quickly despite the lines.

Chicken and Mushroom Kebab
Tom L.

I ordered a Double Kebab Plate of Chicken & Kofta for takeout. Heard a lot of great reviews about this place and because I was on a mediterranean diet, I had to stop by and try it out while I was in the area. I had order takeout at the window since it was completely packed and filled inside the restaurant. Chicken & Kofta Kebab 4/5 Unfortunately, I only got 50% of what I ordered. Instead of Kofta, they accidentally gave me a saffron mushroom kebab. I was disappointed about it because I looked forward to the kofta. I had already left before I had a chance to open and eat. The chicken was nice and tender and even though I don't like mushroom it was still exceptional. I was angrily eating it lol. Rice was perfect and all the sauces were really good. The flatbread was actually really cold for some reason and not warmed properly. Service 3/5 Staff is friendly but my order was messed up. Ambience 5/5 It's really nice inside and the outside dining is also a great option for a hot day. It's a lively casual atmosphere. I'm definitely coming back because the food is really good and I know what to expect the next time I visit but it was just unfortunate my order was messed up.

STEAK SHAWARMA PLATE
Kelly W.

got seated immediately on a wednesday evening. the hostess was so kind and gave us the run down on where the water / tea was, plates, cups, to-go containers etc were all self served. the QR code on the table made ordering quick and easy. i got the steak shawarma plate with hummus and fries, and it was good! generous portion, a little salty but i should have gotten the yogurt tzatziki sauce. overall... SO DELICIOUS! inside was beautifully decorated. always a hit and can't wait to come back.

Doreen C.

Came here on a Friday night with a party of 2 and was told the wait was gonna be 40 mins but realistically only took maybe 20! I absolutely loved this restaurant. There's complimentary tea and the sauces are SO GOOD. All the food was ofc amazing and so flavorful and tasty. We ordered the whole cauliflower and that exceeded my expectations! The roasted lamb and kofta kebabs were also really good. Especially paired with the sauce!! Would definitely come back again and I think I've found my new go to Mediterranean restaurant!

Double Kebab Plate
Sushant Z.

Still simply the best! I ate a street wrap with lamb and it was so tender and juicy. I love the soft and tasty bread and filling. Nothing has changed. It's still as good as it was but now in a beautifully decorated space. Order at the counter and seat yourself. Plenty of seating inside and out. Water and hot tea available. Everything always stocked and clean. I hadn't been to this location since it reopened since I've been satisfying my Mazra craving at the Redwood City location but this place is the best! Not sure why but I feel like the grilled meat is tastier. Forgot to mention that the staff is always so nice and courteous.

Amanda M.

I came here on weekend evening for dinner. We ordered various items to try and they were all delicious. We ordered the chicken shawarma plate, lamb chop plate, double kebab plate, and a side of fries. For the plates they come with rice, pita, house pickles and your choice of two sides. Since we had three entrees, we tried a variety of sides they had available. For sides we got: hummus, babaganoush, muhammara, roasted red beet dip, tabbouleh salad and arabi salad. All the sides were delicious. For the plates, the chicken shawarma plate came with a large portion of chicken that was thinly sliced. Very good flavor and went nicely with their garlic toum. The lamb chop was a bit overcooked for us but had a very nice flavor. For the kebab plate, we got the lamb kebab and the kofta kebab, both were fine but the lamb was overcooked. Overall, this restaurant has nice decor, and will definitely be back again.

Do they serve alcohol?

They don't but they offer byob with no corkage!

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… 

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… 

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.

The dining room is spacious and sleek, and there were only a few other diners on a weekday afternoon. We were dining as a large party, but multiple serves ensured we were well taken care of throughout the meal. We started off with a few mezze platters to share. Even with three mezze platters for our party of about 10, everyone was pretty much limited to one falafel, one small wedge of thin pita, and a small spoonful of dip. Apart from the small serving size, the hummus and babaganoush were on point. I ordered the roasted salmon for my entree, which our servers kindly packed up for me since I had to leave our lunch early. Even when I enjoyed my salmon about an hour later, it was still flaky and tender. The broccoli rabe was a bit of a challenge to eat with a plastic fork and knife because the stalk was so tough to cut through, but I appreciated the generous portion of greens on the side. The saffron rice was fluffy and seasoned just enough to be flavorful on its own. Overall, the food and service were solid, and I'd consider returning for an offsite lunch.

I've never tried this type of coffee before, but I can safely say that I'm hooked. Unfortunately nobody had room for dessert, although it looked delicious. Next time.
