Excellent food and outstanding service. The Köpoğlu appetizer was a standout, and both the chicken and Alinazik were excellent. Keila at the bar was friendly, professional, and made great drinks, while manager Sarper ensured a wonderful dining experience. Highly recommend this restaurant -- I'll definitely be back. read more

Meyhouse - Köpoğlu Acılı Muhammara Çemenli Tavuk Alinazik - Turkish Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

Turkish food has been my new fixation and Meyhouse was at the top of my list of places to try. It's located in downtown Sunnyvale, which means parking can be tricky during peak dinner hours. The seating is noticeably pretty comfy and the interior of the restaurant is cozy. For starters we tried the manti and kopoglu. The yogurt that the manti came in was incredible -- the garlic flavor was so tasty! Luckily they gave us bread so we could finish off every last bit of it. I wish they gave more than 5 pieces in the order though.. next time we'll just order two. The kopoglu was pretty good too and paired very nicely with their house made bread, which btw is perfectly fluffy and amazing for dipping. For the main I had the Adana kebap which was amazing and the highlight of the meal for me! Everything from the meat to the veggies down to the rice was incredibly well seasoned. The lamb was tender and very juicy. BF ordered Çemenli tavuk which was also super tasty. It had this great smoky flavor and very tender too. We were excited to take the leftovers home. Overall, highly recommend for date night or a girl's night. The service was also great and food came out pretty quick. Thanks, Meyhouse! read more

My colleague raved about the food as a vegetarian so I knew I had to give it a try. The food was amazing, the space was comfortable, and the staff were friendly and helpful. I went once with girlfriends and we got a good variety from the various parts of the menu. Everything was delicious and portions were reasonable. It was fun to share and get to try it all. My favorites were the sea bass, the roasted veggies on garlic yogurt sauce, and the octopus. It was so good I went back the following weekend with my family. We all enjoyed our meal (including the sometimes hard to please 8 year old). I got the branzino this time which was good (but I thought the sea bass was better) and a lot of the favorites from my first visit. Can't wait to go back! read more

I have been to Mayhouse countless times since it was opened in Sunnyvale. They have been truly amazing with one of the most amazing service. But that has changed. Service barely exist. Called for bread twice, no response. When eventually bread showed up, we expected the usual, freshly baked bread, what we got was stale dried up bread. Ordered Alinazik( tenderloin skewer), I had it before it was great, this time the meat was chewy. For $50 a portion I could have crossed to Dish Dash and had meat there. Disappointed. read more

Had dinner here recently with two business colleagues. Although the interior wasn't quite as nice as the Meyhouse in Palo Alto, the food was excellent. My two colleagues had never been to a Meyhouse, so we ordered a bunch of different items from the menu to share. They were overjoyed with all of the dishes and so was I. Service was pleasant and efficient. Seating was comfortable. Food arrived quickly. Overall it was a great dinner. read more

Very beautiful restaurant in Sunnyvale. I came in a party of 6, and I was also excited to visit a Middle Eastern restaurant. The complimentary bread was very addicting. One of my friends and I totally devoured it. For the main course, I got one of the kebabs. I felt it was overpriced for what it was worth. Kunefe for dessert was excellent! It's a dessert that has grown a lot on me, and I love the sweet cheesiness with the crunchy, crispy phyllo crust. read more

A phenomenal dinner experience with plenty of good food. I visited on a Sunday evening, and it wasn't super busy. The ambiance of the restaurant was incredible: warm, inviting, and romantic. 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! read more

After reading the high marks of Meyhouse, I thought it'd be difficult for this restaurant to meet my expectations. It did not. It WELL EXCEEDED them! Meyhouse had it all: the gorgeous establishment, the levels of flavors, and the utmost fine-dining experience you rarely find nowadays. What I'm talking about is this.... Aside from the obvious stuff like your server being courteous and responsive with ordering and delivering dishes, our Meyhouse server made sure to *time* our courses to our eating pace so plates didn't arrive too quickly. He also watched our wine glasses like a hawk, but from afar and respectfully, so he could glide over to refill our glasses without interrupting our conversation. Some times I didn't even know he came over; I'd just notice my glass was refilled! Same with finishing a dish or needing water or looking up... anything! Also, between courses, someone not only removed our plates and utensils (including the ones lying on the table, which were unused), but also they came by to clean off the table of crumbs before bringing new plates and utensils, and then the next course. (They did this twice, and our jaws hit the ground twice too.) Because we were there for a special occasion, our dinner lasted 3 hours and there were times we had paused eating because we were just talking, so staff sometimes came by to see if we needed our plates cleared. If we hesitated to answer because we weren't sure if we still wanted to eat some more, they smiled and slowly backed away almost as if embarrassed for getting it wrong. They were adorably sweet. We appreciated their proactiveness and attentiveness! We ordered 2 desserts to share, and there was a mix up where someone brought them out too soon -- without the candle for the birthday boy. I was disappointed by this because I asked our server to please be sure to include a candle, but I looked over and saw that he did a "double take" at our table, hustled to the kitchen, and swiftly returned with a lit candle on a complimentary scoop of ice cream. He even sang! So even though there wasn't the expected candle on our dessert, he did some quick thinking and fixed the error with an additional dessert -- and song! It was brilliant. Honestly, I'd sing Meyhouse's praises over and and again. They did everything right! **Random Things to Note** - Reserve time for parking. There's a lot across the street, but on weekend, it can be tough and take some time, so plan for that if you have reservations. - Corkage fee is a steep $35, so be prepared if you bring your own bottle! - If you order dessert, and you should also order Turkish tea. As a tea connoisseur, I think it compliments the desserts so well. (It's the temperature, the flavor, and yes, the cute little cup and saucers!) - I loved every dish (and bite) I had, but if I could only choose 1 dish, I would choose the eggplant with yogurt appetizer. It is seriously the dreamiest savory cold appetizer I've ever had! read more

Shout out to Mert, the assistant manager, and Bonnie, whom I spoke with on the phone for their friendliness and warm hospitality. I booked their tasting menu for a celebratory meal for my parents and they were kind in assisting me for this special occasion including prepayment. Communication was easy and they were enthusiastic and seemed to care to ensure my parents enjoyed the meal. Photo is from my parents who commented that they enjoyed the food and from the photos they sent me seemed to have a beautiful variety of flavors and offerings. Thank you Meyhouse! read more

awesome place. Make sure you go with a large enough group so that you can enjoy the spread.

Meyhouse Sunnyvale is even better than it used to be in the old location. The room is lovely, with artistic touches. We got the best seat by the window. The Girit cheese, soft tangy cheese smothered in Antep pistachios, is soooo good with their fresh focaccia-like sesame bread. Warm hummus with brown butter and toasted pine nuts is lingering in my mind days later. Grilled Grouper fish skewer was super fresh and delicious, though could used an aioli or sauce. Cappadocia Fire cocktail with my favorite things, mezcal and aperol, did not disappoint. It wasn't spicy, just pure pleasure. Anyway, do not sleep on the best Turkish food in the area. We ate everything so fast I forgot to take pictures. read more

Came in hungry to celebrate a friend's birthday, left sooooo full, mostly because I could not stop myself from demolishing 4-5 massive pieces of their soft, airy bread (yes, they refilled without us even asking!). Honestly, zero regrets. While the bread kept us satisfied, mains did take a little longer to come out after the apps, but the food made up for it. Funny enough, the two dishes I expected to like the least ended up being my favorites: the eggplant dip and the chicken skewer. The chicken was insanely juicy with a slight char that hit perfectly, and the eggplant dip was so creamy from the yogurt with perfectly roasted eggplant. I would go back just for those. The octopus was super soft and basically melted in your mouth, though I did wish it had a bit more of that classic bounce. The tenderloin leaned a little too rare for my preference, but it was still very juicy and not overly gamey, which I appreciated. And of course, we had to get dessert. We ordered a baklava, which was definitely on the sweeter side. It satisfied my sweet tooth, though I've had flakier, more delicate versions elsewhere. To celebrate my friend's birthday, the servers also gave my friend a complimentary scoop of ice cream and sang happy birthday to her. 5/5 for the service and the delicious mains, I'll be back! read more

Enjoyed another meal at Meyhouse. For lunch we ordered from the prix fixe menu: Köpoğlu (roasted eggplant with peppers and tomatoes), Adana Kebap (has a $3 surcharge, ground lamb), and Baklava for me and Ahtapot (has a $9 surcharge, grilled octopus), Locum ($7 surcharge, tenderloin slices), and Kunefe ($2 surcharge) for her. Everything was cooked to perfection, except for the Turkish rice which was somewhat undercooked. Our server quickly rectified the situation by giving me another bowl of rice which was better, but had some uncooked grains. Bathrooms are clean and have electronic toilet seats that were warm on this very cold day. read more

Came here January 3rd 2025 when they opened at 5:00 p.m. the place was empty but not for long. the $20 kardies guvec tasted delicious with shrimp in a tomato base covered with cheese in a baked dish. The shrimp was to die for fresh and tasty with the tomato base sauce accentuating the taste. The d$38 dollar veggie alinazic presentation was excellent with sliced squash tomatoes and beets along with cooked onions. Not something that I would order but the wife loved it. Not sure if any vegetarian dish is worth $38. The $38 Adana with a single kabob of minced lamb rib together with rice and mixed vegetables. A bit pricey for what you got, but the lamb was delicious if the portion was on the small side.. The bread rolls came complimentary with the dinner and was so good that we ordered two servings of them. So delicious and so addictive, I couldn't help eating them stuffing my mouth and raising my blood sugar. read more

Meyhouse - Turkish Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

Well, I stand to be corrected. I was invited for a nice Birthday lunch by a former colleague and friend. My first inclination upon seeing it was Turkish was really not fair. I had gone to two establishments in the bay area that had Turkish food that was not the best presentation, so hence I was like " No" ;-) kidding, but nonetheless I was apprehensive. Well, I was wrong in coming to Meyhouse!! We had an outstanding waiter by the name of Burak. He explained everything very well and picked upon my apprehension. They gave us plenty of time to make up our minds and served us this wonderful made bread with sesame seeds on top...wonderful. I decided on the Ege Salatasi withChunky tomatoes, peppers, onions, cucumbers, garlic-oregano croutons, white cheese, capers and south Aegean olives. Imagine a Greek salad taken to another level. Why I liked this so was the combination except for the Feta was so much like a Spanish salad that I have had growing up as a kid . The dressing on it was perfect. I loved this. My friend had the Mercimekli Karniyarik Oven roasted half eggplant stuffed with green lentil, dried mint, tomato sauce and brown butter served with garlic-yogurt. What did I love about this place, the ambiance, our waiter's kindness and patience. The great food, the yogurt that was mixed with tons of garlic. like I like it) the music in the background that even though was Turkish sounded so much like Spanish flamenco. This is a WINNER for me. Anytime I am in downtown Sunnyvale or Palo Alto and I am craving some Turkish food, this will be my new Go To place!. I hope and trust it will be yours as well. read more

Came here for a birthday dinner. Located in heart of DTSV, close to the large parking lot and some street parking nearby, Very nice and classic decor, with a long bar along one side. The apps were great, smoky and tender octopus and tasty hummus. The bread was fresh baked, a cross between a biscuit and pita. Beef kebab over labneh was excellent, tender and rich eggplant below. Great service and hope to return if I'm ever in Sunnyvale again. read more

I love the food at this place! Very flavorful and different than most restaurants here n the Bay Area. The food is on the pricey side - they came across from Dish Dash and I wasn't sure they would survive, but I was wrong :) The servers are very polite - I asked them for an extra spicy sauce - if you like spicy things, you must ask them for it! I loved it. The tables are too close to each other - in Europe it feels cute - in the Bay Area, it was hard to have a private conversation without being overheard by your table next to you. read more

Meyhouse - BEET MEZE - Turkish Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

SC Dine Out has closed them 5-6 times over last two years do to roaches and Rats probably best to find a new spot

We had a few friends visiting from the East Bay and 1 from the high desert in SoCal, and the GF thought bringing them to Meyhouse in Murphy Square would leave them with happy thoughts as this is their 1st foray into Turkish cuisine. Of course, the meal was exceptional. I ordered the muhammara, which I often do as it is 1 of my favorites - rich, balanced, and flavorful. Everyone likes dumplings so I had to have them. The bread basket with the dipping oils and spread is a must too. The eggplant dish, Perzola (lamb chops -must order), Lokum, the seabass, Adana and a platter of the vegetarian eggplant and a few appetizers were what I ordered. I feel that I should order more from the appetizer section henceforth and fewer entrees. The wine list has price points for everyone's meals budget. read more

Truly feels authentic, the food is very flavorful and delicious. The service is pretty quick and at least at lunch the restaurant was pretty quiet. Each dish is consistently well prepared and made with care. I'd definitely suggest their kababs, they were not greasy, you can tell it is good quality meat. read more

My friends had the oven roasted eggplant and the Harbiye Tavuk which were also very good. Overall the service, the food, and the atmosphere was absolutely wonderful and we will be back. My first time eating at a Turkish restaurant and I am so glad we chose this one! read more

One of the best lunch deals in town that feels like a full-on dining experience. Meyhouse has a $39.95 three-course prix fixe lunch that's a seriously good deal for authentic and elevated Turkish cuisine. You get 3 courses: 1. A meze to start (think creamy hummus and roasted eggplant, Turkmen dumplings or grilled octopus) 2. Your choice of a hearty main like grilled lamb chops, marinated tenderloin skewers, or seasonal fish. I love the tenderloin slices cooked over mesquite for a juicy and smoky depth. 3. A housemade dessert: my fave was the warm, syrup-soaked Kunefe stuffed with stretchy mozzarella, and the baklava is a classic for a reason. For $40, you're getting quality ingredients, generous portions, and a menu that highlights the vibrant flavors of Turkey. Perfect for a lunch date or treating yourself to something delicious and out of the ordinary. read more

Celebrated my friend's birthday dinner here. First time here and I thought the food was good, but didn't feel like the service was the best. I ordered the lamb chop which I liked but the potatoes were kind of not cooked all the way. I enjoyed the hummus and bread was complimentary. Felt like our server was too busy and didn't come check on us and had to ask him to take my friend's order. They add automatic 20% gratuity for party of 6 or more. If I'm in the area, I may stop by again. I thought food and service was decent, but not exceptional. read more

Friendly service and attentive staff. Pretty pricey restaurant, esp for the food quantity. I was underwhelmed by the items we ordered. A friend and I split the yogurt eggplant appetizer, the hummus, and the dumplings. The best item of the 3 was the yogurt dish. I wanted a side of rice and seeing as the type of restaurant this way, I assumed rice was the standard saffron rice. Here, it's listed on the menu as 'rice pilaf' but what it is: a very small bowl of literal WHITE RICE... for $6. Honestly, I'm not certain it could even be measured out to be 1 cup of rice. Even so, SIX DOLLARS?! Thankfully I had a drink to subdue my annoyance and frustration but I won't be back. Dish Dash is right across the street and they have more vegetarian offerings and at more reasonable prices and quantities! read more

Had a chance to try Meyhouse, which is a Turkish Mediterranean spot in Downtown Sunnyvale and actually really liked the food. I will say this place is on the pricier side, but the ambiance and service was pretty decent. The place was cozy and I really appreciated that they let us stay til 10:30 to chitchat as it was for a friends birthday party even though they had closed earlier. Now for food, we got to try a variety of things that I enjoyed: *FREE BREAD - this was absolutely delicious and you could tell this was made fresh. The dipping sauce this came with was absolutely flavorful and yummy * Kopoglu - this was a yogurty thing with eggplant and tomatoes and this was really yummy. This went super will with the complimentary bread * Vegetarian Humus - this was really yummy and came with pine nuts and a brown butter sauce. Think of it as an elevated hummus * Vegetarian dumplings - these were delicious and came with a yogurt sauce that was super delicious * Alinazik - this was really good I have to say i was blown by this dish. The beef was absolutely soft and tender and went so well with the tomato eggplant yogurt thing on the bottom. The hubby kept stealing my dish and loved it too! * Chicken over Orzo - this was really delicious and the chicken was really soft and tender which i loved. *Kunefe - this was yum. Crispy outer phyllo with melty cheese, what can go wrong? I loved this dish a lot and it was super yum! read more

The girit was tasty but a bit too salty for my taste. I loved the eggplant and yogurt in every dish that included them. Even the bread and sauce they brought to the table were amazing. The cocktails were also delicious! My favorite main dish was the gavurdagi - it had an incredible yogurt side and a great crunch. The ambience is beautiful, and the service is excellent; the waitstaff offered great recommendations. It's a bit pricey, but great for a special occasion. read more

We were there to celebrate my niece's wedding anniversary. I could not eat the kofte I ordered, it was 50% cumin, inedible. I swapped it with my niece. 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. read more

We came here on a Saturday night and surprisingly it wasn't crowded at all! We were seated in the back booths, which were very comfortable and I appreciated that the tables had a good amount of space between them, at least where we were. We ordered manti, kopoglu (I think), lamb chops, branzino and beef skewer. Everything tasted great, but our favorites were the manti and the branzino. Next time I'd definitely get the branzino deboned since there were a LOT of tiny little fish bones but lesson learned. The lamb chops were the only dish that were okay in my opinion. Nothing too special about it, and for less $ the branzino definitely delivered more in terms of size and taste, for us. Nevertheless, service was very nice and the food came out at an insane speed so overall was a very nice meal! read more

Came back exactly 2 weeks later for a birthday dinner, and though the food was still great, our server really ruined the dining experience. To me, the service and food go hand in hand and was very dissatisfied with her being rude, forgetful, and not attentive. We were the first diners as it was an early dinner and we ordered 4 appetizers to start along with two glasses of wine and a soda. First red flag was when she confirmed it was 3 appetizers, not 4. The lovely bread basket came out and the kopoglu was the star of course. 5, 10, 15 minutes pass and our drinks are no where to be found. Our server never came to check in as others brought the appetizers, so I waved down an employee and asked about our 2 glasses of wine. Again, there were maybe 1-2 other tables at this point and did not see the bartender making any drinks. He brings our two glasses of wine and we also reminded him about the soda. This server was incredibly kind and helpful. Mid way our server checks in on us and sees my empty wine glass and asks if I'd like another. Yes! Again, 5, 10 minutes pass by and I had to wave down the friendly employee about my wine as our server was chilling at the bar chatting with colleagues. After paying, our server was incredibly rude even though she received a tip for the poor service. Overall, my second visit here was incredibly disappointing. read more

What an amazing experience.. we made reservations and glad we did because the place was packed - we mostly saw big groups of people - families or corporate so not sure if this is the norm here but this was the scenario on a Friday. We ordered some mocktails followed by some amazing apps. We then got the lamb and the sea bass as our mains and it was the perfect dish for us. We were so full and content with our meal, we initially said no to dessert but ended up ordering and it was amazing !!! Will definitely be coming back here again :) read more

Overall we had a nice time. The mezze were good, but honestly most Mediterranean places in the Bay Area do mezze well, so I didn't see anything that would justify almost double the price. The kebab was tasty too, but seeing the cheapest entree at $36 felt a bit much. It really made me wonder where the meat is coming from and why the prices are this high. The one thing I really liked was that they serve rakı that was a big plus for me. Everything tasted good overall, but the prices were definitely higher than what I'd expect. read more

I've never eaten at the May house in Palo Alto, but my wife and I always go to the one in Sunnyvale when we have the rare opportunity to go out by ourselves without our two children. The restaurant offers an amazing selection of delicious wines from countries you would not expect like Turkey, Egypt, Armenia. All of the food is delicious, and we can't decide, so we splurge on the chef's tasting menu to get little bites of as many things as possible. If you are ready to blow $200 on a delicious meal, I encourage you to do the same. read more

We have been inspired to hunt down Turkish food after our trip to Turkiye. We found Meyhouse and have visited both the Palo Alto and Sunnyvale locations. The Palo Alto has a speak easy with regular jazz performances. While the Sunnyvale jazz schedule is for special occasions. I understand there will be a third location soon. Both times, we had the omakase for two. Both times, we had the seafood and meat selection. Definitely a ton of delicious food. I am fond of the appetizers, the eggplant and yogurt are divined, the bread is made fresh daily. The lamb bbq is well seasoned and bbq. The branzino is just as wonderful as we had in Europe. When we are in the Bay Area, we make an effort to stomp at either locations. It wonderful staff and food and charming atmosphere highlights the Turkish culture. This place get packed fast, always recommend making reservations. Thank you and bon appetite read more

Meyhouse: Food and Drinks Deserve Attention, Service Doesn't ++ The Good News Cocktails were delicious, food was pretty good. Worth coming back for drinks at the bar with snacks - skip the full sit-down. !! The Personal Space Issue Servers kept standing too close, repeatedly hit my foot, and served dishes with elbows and arms in my face. Small things that happened way too often. !!! Everything at Once All dishes arrived simultaneously - no pacing, no table space, food getting cold. For a place trying to be premium, this feels like a basic miss. Servers then kept reaching over to shuffle plates around, making things more chaotic. ++ One Bright Spot Manager offered to remake a dish when we mentioned the timing issue. Accommodating gesture, even if we didn't want to waste food. read more
