We were trying to find a place to eat and we couldn't decide which one we want to go. One of my friends said "Why don't we try this one?" and we are just right in front of this restaurant. We walked in and placed our orders, paid and got our number and find our own table. The Kreadopita was cold, dry and not crispy. It doesn't taste good. The Rainbow Salad and Falafel Plate were pretty tasty but for the meats in the Mix Combo Grill were so dry. We think the meat was already cooked and they just reheated it. So dry!!!!!!! This place is big and with nice music but the customer service needs to be improved ... - We have to get our own water and they forgot to give us a plate to share our food in. We think they clean the table but they don't clean the seats. The seating was kinda dirty. By the way, we got a free drink for today's promotion :) read more

I've been here twice and this place is amazing! It has an open kitchen and plenty of seating inside and out. When you place your order at the register you'll probably be speaking with Merve who is so nice and definitely the perfect hostess. I've had the doner wrap and the Iskender kebap. Both were delicious and remind me of my time in Turkey. This is a fantastic restaurant. read more

We stumbled upon this place, and WOW / the food, the ambiance and most of all the people, just incredible! The staff who took our order in the front was the kindest lady and brought us some Baklava!!! When we thought we were done - they brought us some amazinggggg tea! What a great spot! Highly recommended! read more

One of my new favorite restaurants! Place is very clean and bright. I like the different scenery videos they show on the screen. Cashier was nice and welcoming. Servers are friendly and very attentive. We were running low on pita bread and I saw the server run to quickly give us more! Great service Our order of combo gyro plate, stuffed eggplant plate, and spanakopita were all very delicious. What surprised us was the free hummus and pita appetizer - we were not expecting this and it was so good! At the end of the meal, they also served complimentary baklava and early grey tea. What a nice way to end the meal :) baklava sweet and paired well with the tea. Tea was also not oversteeped and brewed perfectly. Can't wait to come back and try other food on the menu! read more

Friendly staff. Modern vibes. I always get the vegetarian moussaka, which is amazing!

Pros: seating area is really spacious , good indoor and outdoor options. Customer service was great as well, everyone was super nice. Baklawa was delicious Cons: Main dishes were really mediocre. I had the lamb gyro wrap and there was maybe two pieces of super dry meat in my wrap, I didn't even finish half of it. Also ordered the mantu which was advertised as lamb dumplings. When I tell you there was smaller than a dime size piece of meat in each dumpling I'm being very generous. I've attached a picture to see the tiny ball that made this a "lamb dumpling" Overall I wouldn't come back and so wouldn't recommend it to others. It may seem authentic but the food quality was significantly below average . 2 stars given for the ambiance and kind employees. read more

Mediterranean Kitchen - Mantu which is lamb dumplings. Photo is here to show the teeny tiny amount of meat in each dumpling. - Mediterranean Near Me - Burlingame, California

Flavorful food and terrific service. I LOVE their vegan red lentil soup. I also tried the fattoush salad which felt a bit dry all round. But they offered to fix it with some more dressing. The complimentary tea and baklava was a big hit. The outdoor seating is great and they are open late until 10pm. read more

12/10!!!! I would give this place 20 stars if I could. The Chicken Souvlaki plate is exceptional, the best I've ever had. The rice pudding is phenomenal, I eat 2 everytime I come here. The Turkish tea is fantastic as well. The service is exceptional, all staff is extremely accommodating and friendly. The restaurant itself is extremely clean, well decorated and has comfortable atmosphere. The best restaurant on the Ave by far. read more

Good foods, beef, lamb kebab's, salad and rice and pita come with it. All super fresh. Halal meats. Ayran was good. I recommend.

maybe it's my bad luck, but I feel like I am consistently disappointed by this place. Today I ordered a tostada salad, and I was expecting to see it all fresh ingredients on it, but, lo and behold, there was prepackaged shredded cheddar, cheese on my salad!!! I was so incredibly disappointed by this in addition, I got premade tortilla chips on my salad as well, and they were so salty... the only thing i really enjoyed was the chicken gyro read more

Great atmosphere, great food, great service! I have tried all "Mediterranean" restaurants in Burlingame and I think they all lost their enthusiasm. This new Mediterranean Kitchen is definitely the BEST! All food was very tasty, kebabs were juicy. The deserts were great! More over than anything, they had always smile on their faces while serving. Go find Ali (the owner), he is very modest owner and fun to chat with. read more

Mediterranean food is my absolute favorite food and I love that there are so many options to get it in Burlingame. Mediterranean Kitchen is by far my favorite. I LOVE this place! I have been ordering takeout from here over the past few months but tonight I actually came and dined in for my birthday. The food is incredible and fresh. But the star of this restaurant is the service. Everyone was so kind and they even gave me and my boyfriend some hummus for an appetizer and Turkish tea after our meals. I was so stuffed afterwards. I will continue to come here because the food and people are so wonderful. You should absolutely give it a try! read more

Found a diamond in the rough and oh boy is this place so underrated. Amazing freshly prepared food that tasted excellent! And thankfully DoorDash came to the rescue. Ordered chicken souvlaki plate and appetizer combo plate and it was too much food so I had a nice late afternoon snack as well. For sure will try this place again when back in San Fran. read more

One of my favorite places to have Mediterranean food on the Peninsula. I can't think of anything I've tried here that I didn't enjoy. The staff working there is really friendly and helpful. The huge wall menu is nice too - a plus, in case you forgot your glasses. Menu is a mix of Turkish, Greek, and Middle-Eastern dishes and standard American items made with their own twists. Casual ambiance with lots of indoor and outdoor seating. The outdoor seating options include a well-heated patio or their parklet out by the curb. The hummus is really good and smooth served with a splash of quality olive oil. Have tried plates of chicken souvlaki, gyros and kofte. My most recent visit gave me a chance to try the beef shish kebab -- wow! so much flavor on those tender cubes of beef. Highly recommend. Also have tried the gyro wraps, soups and salads - all very good. Much of their ingredients are organic and always opting for local sourcing whenever possible. read more

Soooooo overpriced for what it is. It's a cute vibe, I ordered pickup. Dont understand how you can charge for the portion received. Food was dry, rubbery and felt like it had been sitting out for a while. read more

A clean brightly lit place with friendly waitstaff and amazingly tasty and fresh food. The only reason I can't give this 5 stars is the presence of orzo in the rice. I know this is part of the standard recipe, but 30% of Americans are gluten free, and with it in such a basic part of most of the dishes, it's an impossible choice for that segment of the population. https://www.cnet.com/health/nutrition/reasons-for-eating-a-gluten-free-diet/ I hope the management addresses this, because I'd love to come back and give this place 5 stars. Added this in case the management reads this: If 1/3 of diners is gluten free, this means that with two diners, the probability that one or both of the diners won't want to eat at the restaurant is over 50%: The probability that only the first diner is gluten free, the probability that only the second diner is gluten free, plus the probability that both diners are gluten free: = P(gf)*(1 -P(gf)) * 2 + P(gf)*P(gf) = (1/3 * 2/3) *2 + 1/3*1/3 = 5/9 And it just gets worse with a larger party! Solution: REMOVE THE ORZO FROM YOUR RICE read more

I've driven by this restaurant several times and finally had the chance to drop in and try it out, and boy, am I impressed!!! We had an order of lamb kebab, chicken souvlaki, and the grilled seafood entrée, along with a cup of red lentil soup to go. Everything was delicious! The red lentil soup is highly recommended! Warm, creamy, and a good amount of spices! Just a very comforting soup! The chicken was perfectly cooked and flavorful, as were the seafood and lamb! The food was good, but what stood out the most was the quality of the service. The service here really is top notch! Everyone was extremely friendly and helpful. I can't say enough about the quality of the service! Already thinking about what I'll be ordering next time I dine here! read more

Oh wow. This place was tucked away from the hustle and bustle of the busier main streets... and maybe that's why it wasn't as busy as the other restaurants? Well, I'm here to tell you - THIS PLACE IS DELICIOUSLY AMAZING. The prices are affordable, the quality excellent, and they just dish out super tasty and fresh Mediterranean food. My partner and I shared a beef and lamb plate which came adorned with warm pita, creamy humus, fluffy rice (soooo good), and a fresh and refreshing salad. I enjoyed that the meat pieces were thin and a tad caramelized. The plate was the perfect amount for both of us to share (we were hungry, but not to the point of starving hangry status lol). But if you're super hungry, don't share bc you don't wanna fight over the delicious meal. We also shared a side of Greek fries. The fries were fried to crispy perfection. The sauce/topping-to-fry ratio was spot on. I also checked-in and received a complimentary lemonade! The decor was bright, inviting and rustic modern with pops of greenery. I loved the ambiance! BOTTOM LINE: Yes, I'd recommend straying away from the busy Burlingame streets and spots and try this hidden gem instead. read more

The yummiest falafel wrap!! Love the pickles and the sauce it comes with. Super flavorful, best falafel I've ever had honestly! I work in the area and it's perfect to grab lunch at. Family friendly, and the staff is great. Lots of seating, indoor and outdoor. read more

The real deal. We stopped in between the lunch and dinner rush. We were starving, so we ordered it all. Absolutely nothing disappointed! The hummus is top notch and they don't skimp on pita! We ordered the Greek fries and they are addicting! The garlic and feta is plentiful! The chicken souvlaki and chicken gyro plate are served with rice, a house salad, a yogurt sauce and a large dollop of hummus. Loved this place so much. Not overly fancy but hits the stop! read more

I door dashed this last night! I was pleasantly surprised of how delicious it was. I ordered the chicken, and it came with a small salad, hummus, rice, and pita bread. I thought the chicken might be dry, and it was quite the opposite. It was moist. The hummus had great flavor, and it was a really good dinner. I would definitely go to this restaurant and order this again, I will be ordering from Meditaranian kitchen a lot more. read more

My new favorite restaurant in downtown Burlingame! I had been there before, but it is under new ownership and WOW what an upgrade all around My meal was delicious (light lunch), service was exemplary (harder to find these days), and the ambience and music are authentic. The outdoor seating is spacious, and just as welcoming to an individual or larger group. Truly refreshing to not be crammed into a parklet, and located just off the Avenue on Lorton. The new owners have truly put their heart and soul into their restaurant, please check it out for yourselves soon read more

Mediterranean Kitchen is a true gem! The inside is beautifully decorated, creating a warm and inviting ambiance. It is very spacious. The staff are super friendly and helpful, making the experience even better. Food presentation and taste are spectacular! Their food is ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE! We have been "regulars" at that place ever since they have opened a few years ago. Any dish you order is FANTASTIC and their meats "melt in your mouth", even shish kabobs from chicken breast, which is impossible to make tender and juicy! The dishes are always ideally seasoned, tender, fresh and cooked to perfection. Their salads are the best I have had in any Mediterranean place. The deserts are out of this world. My family and friends have been there multiple times and were NEVER disappointed. Infarct, we always come back for more. read more

Mediterranean Kitchen - Turkish coffee and desert - Mediterranean Near Me - Burlingame, California

I felt like I'd been here in another iteration, but that's for another time I got the Hummus Chicken Gyros homemade hummus with chicken gyro and tahini sauce $15.95 5*. This was perfect. i think the owners are Lebanese, or palestinians, although I didn't ask. I like the Palestinian and Israeli hummus the best, because of the creamy texture. Different proccess. The chicken was perfect, and succulent. Why so stingy on the pita? My friend got the Rainbow Salad, Organic Hearts Of Romaine, Shredded Red cabbage, Roasted Corn, Roasted Beets, Walnuts, Shredded Carrots, Gorgonzola Cheese & Champagne Vinaigrette, and loved it. I would definitely go back! Big portions too. The owner and the server were both very kind and helpful when needed. There was a large, what looked like a work group in the parklet out front with a dog that barked viscously whenever anyone entered. I thought this could have been better controlled. It was very disruptive. Parking is a challenge with the construction in the block in front of them. Let's lend them extra business while they have to deal with all this. Again, give us some more of that pita to scoop up your delicious food! read more

This is the 2nd time I've tried Mediterranean Kitchen. First time, I just need a little something to eat. I had the red lentil soup which is a puree. It was delicious! Today, I'm sitting on the patio street-side with a salmon wrap. Glad they had a non-meat option (although I adore lamb/beef gyros). For lighter fare, they serve salmon or shrimp options. The wrap is tasty and nicely presented. Wraps seem to be a popular choice. It is juicy and tastes freshly prepared. If I close my eyes, I can imagine myself in Greece or Istanbul. Hopefully, I'll be able to compare soon! read more

You go to these restaurants where you pay at the counter and expect a bad service, but there is always someone checking on the tables in case you need anything else.
