    Market inside
    Mehrnaz H.

    Came here for a birthday lunch celebration. The staff is very helpful and friendly. We never had caucus's food and was a first time for us all. We ordered the Cornish Hen (falls apart just using a fork and very tender!), Mediterranean Branzino and chicken Lule kabob along with eggplant rolls for appetizer. We truly enjoyed the meal with the Cornish hen being the most favorite and chicken lule being the least as it was on tougher side. For dessert with had the cheesecake and the honey cake. Honey cake was this round. Definitely will try them again.

    Fried dumplings
    Brandye K.

    Wanted to try something different after a long day at work. The fried dumplings were good, more dough than filling. The quail was so good, not a fan of the sauce, it tasted like old avocado to me. The potatoes were also fried perfectly. The pickled veg was a nice bright addition. Service was efficient. Overall ambiance was like comfortable elegance in a way.... But light elegance with the soccer game outside and plastic plants in the partician.

    Kabob
    Han-Nha T.

    Everything was good. Can't really go wrong with much. Higher prices but worth. Tables filled up earlier so make a reservation if you eat at rush times. Lentil soup was minty which was new and interesting for me. Lamb kabob was extraordinarily juicy. Appetizer platter had a lot of food. Great bites. Not a fan of liver, but i think it was good for what it is. Would come back! Super sweet service and good ambiance!

    Interior: Pomegranate tree mural
    Shreya S.

    An excellent restaurant that serves amazing authentic Caucasus cuisine (Predominantly Azerbaijan) and elevated, clean, classy aesthetic. "Nar" means "pomegranate", which is the theme of the restaurant. There is a beautiful mural of pomegranate tree which sets the tone of the restaurant. I am sure this fruit has a cultural connotation in the culture. Came here for lunch with my team, so we were able to try a bunch of different dishes. They have two options for lunch: you can do a pre-fix (one appetizer, one salad/soup, one entree) but everyone on the table needs to opt for this option OR you can order a la carte. We went with pre-fix: I went with eggplant rolls for appetizer (this is EXQUISITE, my favorite dish of the lot. I am not a fan of eggplant, and the rolls taste predominantly of garlic and herbs). For salad, I ordered the watermelon salad - quite refreshing for summer time. For the main course, I opted for Chicken Lule Kebab (this was a full meal, came with rice and salad, the kebab was juicy, but I couldn't finish the rice, the quantity is a lot). For the table, we ordered Kachapuri (cheese filled bread shaped like a. boat - this was really and recommend to order if sharing and have it while its hot), Suzme (flavored yogurt dip - pretty good, served with bread), Mangal (mostly tasted like eggplant, served with bread). For desserts, we ordered Honey Cake (2nd favorite dish out of all, loved it) and Pakhlava. For wine, we ordered kindzmarauli (fruity wine) and saperavi (red wine) for the table. To end the feast, I also tried the Turkish coffee (and went back with a full coma haha) Our servers were extremely accommodating for our large group and I had a fantastic time at Nar. 10/10 recommend!

    Lule kebab
    Christina P.

    We were excited to celebrate my husband's birthday with family here, eastern European restaurants are hard to find. We arrived as they opened, the entrance to the parking lot is narrow and long besides the building, you enter alongside the front of the restaurant, and it curls around towards the back. They were able to seat us right away. The restaurant is nicely decorated, and the bigger lights turn on as the sun goes down. I appreciated the quiet we got as the first few tables, because the open dining room got noisy as the room filled up. The complementary bread was hot and crispy. I saved my piece because I thought maybe some of our food would come with some yummy sauce, but they didn't, everything was dry. It would have been better if they left the water at the table to self serve, but you have to wait for them to come around to refill your little cups. The Shah Plov is quite different from other plov, it's a drier long grain rice, maybe basmati, and it's baked in a shell with some fruits on the bottom. The rice was cooked fine, but the meat in this plov was incredibly dry and tough. The portion was large, this plate had more than enough rice to feed our table of four with the rest of the entrees. I give this 3/5 The lule kabob was amazing, and it was probably the only thing I would come back for. The meat was fatty and seasoned well, cooked medium-well. The onion salad was a good complement. The only thing I would improve was that there was 2.5 baby potatoes on the plate, and then a sad lavash. If there was more potatoes, or the lavash was on the side so it didn't get soggy under the salad, I would enjoy it more. 5/5 The ciz biz is highly regarded on yelp, and my mother-in-law was adamant that we get it. If not for this I think we would have got the mixed grill and been much happier for it. We do love liver though, so it isn't a matter of disliking liver. The ciz biz comes out on a thin grill plate, with onions and potatoes. It could have used more seasoning and some form of fat. It was dry and sad. 1/5 The Saj chicken also comes out on a thin grill plate, and is usually cooked under a weight that results in crispy, juicy chicken. This followed the same as the other meats on the table, with being dry, overcooked, and sad. The chicken is accompanied by tomatoes, mushrooms, potatoes. 1/5. (I recommend the saj chicken at Bevri instead.) This particular kachapuri was too sour for my taste, but I don't hold that against them, the bread was cooked through and the bottom was crispy. 3/5 I'm not sure if they were having an off night, I was hoping for better. We should have vetted it before heading there the first time for a special occasion.

    $59 for Appetizer Sampler Set! My 3 favorites are Dolma (ground beef), Eggplants Roll (walnuts), and Kilinka (fried Azeri wontons).

    A month ago; my coteacher; Ms.Chinara told me about this new Azeri restaurant. I had light dinner that night with a friend. Tonight; I invited 3 coteachers (Ms.Chinara,Ms.Rouba, and Ms.Betsy). We had appetizer sampler set. Everything were delicious. In house breads were good. The star of the night is "3 Nations Grilled Meats: Ground chicken kababs with lambs fats, ground lamb kababs, grilled ribeyes (extra $40 but it's worth it), grilled chickens thighs, and lamb chops! I had unsweetened ice tea and hot Turkish coffee! They have coke, Americano coffee and black tea too. We didn't try pomegranate wine tonight. But a month ago I did try. It was very light and smooth with (acidic from pomegranates). I'm not a big wines person. But i did like their Azeri pomegranate wine ! All meats are halal which is always a big plus for my friends and myself. Oh, don't forget the salads! I actually fell in love with salad first! Hahahaha! We didn't have time for desserts. But of course, I'm into desserts too. It's a cozy spot for more intimate gatherings for meals.

    Chicken Lule Kebab and the Lamb Chops.
    Srijit M.

    The food was good, their pomegranate influence is pretty clear. The branding was on point but the food was expensive for what it offered. Overall a very meh experience. The bill was 200$ for 3. One appetizer, one beverage each, two main dishes.

    Cheesecake
    Shia L.

    Cheers to Mountain View, for gaining a Caucasian (means "of the Caucasus" here, not "white people"!) restaurant, right after Los Altos lost Bevri (Georgian)! I enjoyed everything we ordered and will surely come back, likely quite often, as I live nearby and think the prices are more than fair. The flavors were unique and memorizable. Spices are very on point and all the textures are done right. I also discovered ciz biz (beef liver) today for the first time and loved every bite of it! 1 star deducted for minor execution issues. One of the gurzas (dumplings) already had its wrapper torn and the soup leaked out. The minced lamb skewers meat had a little too much sinew and could be chewy at times.

    Retail corner with homemade pickles and jam.
    D.wight L.

    Azerbaijan food, ya know I'm gonna stamp my culinary passport! Never had this cuisine and I actually had to look up where this small country lies. It is next to Armenia and somewhat in the general area between Turkey and Iran. And ya know what, the food does share lots of traits from those other countries as well. As food usually blends and influences countries next to each other, that is an anthropological fact. Very charming spot with fine dining vibes, table cloth and napkins, nice silverware and plateware. But the diners are typical Cali casual just in everyday clothes and just having a good time with one another. They even have a cute little retail area up front, where it looks like an artisan food shop with homemade pickles and jams and some deep imported food goods. Dolmas ($15/4*) I think we tried this because we had never tried a dolma filled with meat. Usually the ones I've had only had rice wrapped in those grape leaves. This was a ground beef and rice mix that was subtly spiced and quite tasty. Everything was warm even the grape leaves which made them more supple and soft versus tough and fiber-y. This was different enough that I thought that it should have a different name than 'dolmas'. But excellent try. Piti ($28/3.5*) This wasn't my dish but I did try a little sample. This is kinda like a home-y dish where they usually make a lamb stew with chick peas and bake it in an oven in a clay pot. Here I found the presentation to be quite unique as they put a single serving of this lamb stew in a clay cup and they bring that with a shallow bowl of homemade croutons (not the buttery type). Then you're supposed to dump the contents of the cup into the shallow bowl, right on top of the croutons. So if you let it sit for a bit, the croutons will soften from the liquid and one can eat it as they please. You can wait just a tad so the croutons still have some bite, or you can wait til the croutons get totally soft and absorbed. Kinda like how one eats cereal or how one likes to put crackers into their soup, you have to know how to do you. I did find the lamb to be very tender but I also felt that it was very mildly seasoned, bordering on bland-ish. The stewing liquid is also very light and not thickened at all, so to me it was more of a soup with big chunks than it was a stew. The chickpeas did give it more substance and there were also big hunks of chestnuts, which I thought was the culture's stamp on the dish, as I've never seen anything like that before. I am curious to see other versions of this dish to see other styles/preferences. Lule Kebab ($27/4.5*) I am a kebab fiend and usually will try any cultures version. This is a ground lamb version so I had to give it a whirl. I've had Turkish, Persian, Afghan, Lebanese and Pakistani versions but this is my first try of a Lule which the Armenians also have. I did like the flavor and texture. Quite lamb-y and grilled nice with noticeable char. The spicing is definitely more mild than Afghan and Pakistani, but somewhat similar to Persian. But I really love the Persian version so that is still in my tops, but that is totally preference. Served with a nice mixed green salad with a light vinaigrette, a very thin flat bread, and baby roasted potatoes. Usually I see ground meat kebabs served with rice, so this was another twist that I observed from this culture. I think this is the kind of place that you need to visit more than once, as there are so many things I wanted to try. But for those that wants their taste buds to travel, let this be an option. Great try!

    1/3/2026 NAR Restaurant 286 W El Camino Real Mountain View, CA 94041 I went to this new Azerbaijani/American place on ECR in MTV next to the Jack in the Box. This was recently a Chinese restaurant and has been nicely remodeled with an upscale contemporary table and chair setup interior. There is parking that wraps around the building. I ordered the Ciz Biz (pronounced Ch) lunch plate along with the suggested bread. Service was helpful, attentive and good. The bread loaf came first and was very long (could feed 4). It was a little chewy but soft and good. The Ciz Biz (beef liver slices with potato cubes and some grilled onions) is good if you like liver and the onions. Be sure to ask for more onions because the flavor and sweetness accompanies the liver well. Great place for liver and onions lovers. It's repeatable.

    Had a great 4-star lunch at Nar, a Georgian spot offering a prix fixe menu. The eggplant appetizer was flavorful, the lentil soup was good and the lamb chops were cooked nicely with good seasoning. I had to also get the khachapuri which is standout Georgian dish...warm, cheesy, and perfect for sharing. It was way too much food and I had to get most of it to go. Overall, a really enjoyable tasting experience with great experience.

    Suzme and eggplant rolls
    Ayşe Ç.

    We had such a wonderful lunch here and are already planning to come back to try more dishes. We ordered the prix fixe lunch (appetizer + soup/salad + main) for $39.90, and it was a lot of food for an amazing price. For appetizers, the eggplant rolls were the standout. Perfectly seasoned, soft, and incredibly flavorful. From the salads, the eggplant salad was our clear favorite. The eggplant was cooked beautifully with a soft interior and a rich, delicious sauce. The Choban salad was also fresh and tasty. For the main course, the lule kebab was excellent. It was tender, flavorful meat paired with perfectly cooked potatoes. Overall, everything we tried was delicious, the portions were generous, and the service was great. Highly recommend, and we'll definitely be returning!

    We were very excited to visit this restaurant as recommended by our relatives. We tried the Prix menu option with mushroom soup, lamb chops, eggplant rolls, suzme, khachapouri (adjarouli) and salads. We also tried Khinkali, adjarouli and honey cake. Everything was very tasty, very finely presented, even including the honey cake. The service was excellent - fast, attentive and courteous. The prices were on the higher side, however, once you go off the prix menu. The restaurant is beautifully decorated and furnished and has a little store inside.

It took less time to make this time (roughly about five minutes after ordering), and when it came out, I marveled at how it looked like a work of art! Just beautiful! Each piece of herbed formage blanc flatbread had a nice, crunchy bottom (but not blackened) and a slightly tanginess, with a a good amount of "hen-of-the-wood" mushrooms, sweet roasted garlic and a bed of arugula. My, oh, my! My first bite was a multi-level extravaganza! The crunch of the bread, followed by the aroma of the herbs and arugula, then the saltiness of the cheese, the sweetness of the roasted garlic, the earthiness of the mushrooms - all came together as just a wonderful work of culinary art! This being my first time eating today, my saliva glands just fired off at first bite, causing a bit of intense pain from too much saliva shooting out. But, seriously, this was a very delicious entree, that I enjoyed from start to finish! Bravo for this second joyous experience!

Our server Ellie appeared, waters were delivered and she took our drink order. Our drinks were delivered and our food order was taken. Seamless, and quick, even with some questions from the ladies. Mind you, it was lunch time on Castro Street, pedestrians only, so very trendy. Busy. NOISE LEVEL LOUD. You may remove hearing aids. DOUBLE SMASH BURGER $19.50 garlic dijonnaise / American cheese / red onion / dill pickles and that was it. Top bun was room temperature, and the bottom bun was only warm from the cooked meat. Had a nice grilled cheese burger aroma, tasting like any other greasy, juicy, salty, cheese burger, nothing different or special. Accompanying fries were mildly seasoned, and I found no need to add salt. It was good, would order it again, but I don't feel it's worth the price. From the $13.00 special price menu: FISH & CHIPS $13.00 - what there was of the small portion of fish was seasoned well, as were the chips (fries). The Brit (the Duchess) in the party, gave her approval. The realm settled into contentment. COKE - $3.95 - glass with ice and straw was just enough to get me through my meal. GINGER LIME SODA - $7.00 - the Duchess was not happy with her order stating it was too sour, lacking any sweetness. She would never, ever order again and especially not at this price. The other couple in our party ordered Eureka burgers (American Swiss / grilled red onion / lettuce / house pickles / tomato / special sauce) substituting cheddar cheese for the Swiss. These burgers did come with bite size lettuce, a slice of tomato and pickle chips and fries. A side of onion rings completed their meal. I stole the woman's pickle chips and the flavor was great, just perfect . . . yum. Accompanied by two IPA beers. The cloudy lagers seemed to fill the bill. These burgers appeared to be just normal, greasy, juicy, salty regular cheese burgers. Nothing to take your breath away. SERVICE: Great! Ellie was attentive without hovering. It was a busy lunchtime hour, but they seem to have enough staff to handle the lunch rush. Ellie handled our table expertly with some patience I might add, so 5 stars to her. 2nd time here and I probably won't return. Pricing and noise level are a concern. Their acoustics are not made to handle the volume of chatter and music. PARKING: Entrance to public parking on Villa St., half block from Eureka's, located on the corner of Villa and Castro.

    One of the best burgers I've ever had!…read more So a half pound burger and a side will run you about $20. I'm at that age where everything seems expensive now, but in this case, it's worth it. I had The Classic. The gf had The Blue Fig. I had a little of hers also. They were both amazing! What I liked about The Blue Fig is the bleu cheese was noticeable, but not strong enough that it tasted like feet smell. The onions rings were great. Light and crispy and a nice light brown. You can tell they clean that fryer often. The young lady that helped us was friendly. She even auto rejected the suggested tip on the register - since it's counter service. The one negative is the cookie we had for dessert, while tasty, was a little dry. We still killed it though. Would DEFINITELY go back.

    Finally gave this place a try, and was not disappointed. The food was fresh and had great taste…read more Personally, the bread for the burger was better than the roll for the sandwich, but that was really the only thing. We tried the crispy chicken sandwich, a cheeseburger, and tenders. We also tried a different side (fries, sweet potato fries, and onion rings) all were great! The staff is so friendly and welcoming. They were in top of everything! The restaurant was clean and has two tvs with sports games on. It's not super big, but they do offer takeout. The only downside (not the restaurant's fault) is that this shopping center has turned a lot of their already small parking lot into EV only spots. So, parking on a busy day might be tricky.

    Yikes! Stayed at the hotel this past weekend for a birthday staycation and was excited to try this…read morerestaurant. I dined with my daughter Friday night (08/28). It wasn't busy so I was surprised at how awful the service was. The young man who seated us looked like he hated life. I should've known that his vibe was only the beginning. Our evening went downhill from there...After our order was taken, and our food brought out, we never saw our server again. I finished my prosecco and never got the opportunity to order a second glass. Eventually, I told my 6-year-old to wait while I went and asked for a dessert menu. At which point I mentioned that we never saw our server. The woman at the stand handed me dessert menus and said someone would be with us shortly. A different server came and took our dessert order. But after dessert was brought to us, once again we were ignored. When I tell you that we could've gotten up and left and never paid, nobody would have noticed. That's how much we were ignored. I was fucking pissed at this point. I got up with my child to go complain when the server quickly noticed and asked if everything was ok...fuck no it's not ok! Quickly gave him my room number and said that the evenings service was atrocious. And we walked away. And if the service was bad, the food was worse. When I tell you a DiGiorno pizza is better than their rendition of a margarita pizza, it's not an exaggeration. My pizza literally had four tiny sprigs of basil. And their olive paste garnish on it is unnecessary. Their twist on the margarita pizza was not appetizing. I can't complain about their fries though. It was basically the only thing we ate that we enjoyed. Their guacamole was rough too. Lacked flavor. The dessert was the biggest disappointment, food-wise. It appeared to be a brownie baked on a chocolate chip cookie, cut into a pie slice. It was HARD. I gave up trying to get my spoon through it. Needed a steak knife. The ice cream was fine. After this experience, we decided we would not be eating at the restaurant for the rest of our time at the hotel. We went and picked up food or ordered in. The bartenders seemed nice, but once the afternoon hit, my daughter had to wait over 30 minutes for a Shirley Temple to be brought to the pool. After waiting too long I decided to get up and go to the bar and ask what was going on. Her Shirley Temple was sitting there at the bar, and they had accidentally put it in a typical glass, which is not permitted at the pool. The bartender apologized because the server who had taken my order at the pool, did not relay to the bartender that the order was for the pool area. All in all, I would never eat here again. As a local, it's disappointing because the ambience is nice. But the food is overpriced and not even close to being good. And as for the service? My God. This was officially the worst restaurant I have ever eaten at. Ever. When the manager of the hotel asked how our stay was, I casually mentioned that the restaurant was lacking in a lot of ways. But I didn't expand on the experience. However, I was surprised to see that the manager had taken off the meals from the charges to my room when I checked out. And I sincerely appreciate that. I never asked for it, but was appreciative as it was unexpected. Bottom line. The hotel is a nice stay, and I plan on staying again. But you couldn't pay me to eat at that restaurant.

After a while, more guests started eating but overall there is a lot of space, so I wouldn't worry about not finding a table. After ordering, we waited for our food for 15 minutes. We ordered 2 Macho Crispy Chicken Sandwiches and Curly Fries. The chicken was crispy and flavorful, but the portion was small. The sandwiches were on the pricey side, compared to sandwiches you can find at chains. We ate the curly fries to complement our sandwiches. The fries were crispy and comparable to those at Jack in the Box. To conclude, I would probably come here again because I like the texture and taste of crispy chicken sandwiches. I would recommend this spot to foodies looking for an Asian-flavored burger spot.

    Lots of parking and very spacious dining room. Great for big parties…read more Love the simple and easy ordering system, the food came out very fresh and the staffs were very nice. The fried chicken sandwich itself was pretty great, you have to love breading because the breading is very very heavy, but the meat itself was just as juicy. Very very fair pricing for such a huge burger and in a very nice location as well. The tender beef wrap was not so great at all, the beef was far from tender and more chewy than anything. The sauce and the wrapper itself did not really go together. It felt like two cultures trying to mix and nothing really worked out here.

If you can handle a little bit of spice and a good amount of seasoning, this is the perfect sandwich.

The service is really good, the workers are nice and I love that they have water cups out for you to serve yourself. i recommend this place to anyone that comes to the south bay.

    TLDR: Excellent Fried Chicken!…read more I was just chatting with my friend about picking up Chik-Fil-A for dinner one night, and he suggested Chicken G. There's one in Fremont, but also on in Mountain View, which isn't too far from me. So on a different night, I decided to give this place a try. Short answer: it's REALLY good! Long answer: It's a very very small place. It's got that 80's vibe to it... it's like Falafel Drive-In but with chicken! The staff was nice... although it seemed like there was only 1 front-of-the-house ( I couldn't see in the back). And he was doing EVERYTHING... preparing the food, packaging it up, taking orders.... And it wasn't like the place was super busy at 7:30p on a Thursday. In fact, no one was in front of me, but I still had to wait 5 minutes or so for him to take my order. But finally the order was fired up, and he immediately told me it will take about 15 minutes, because everything is made fresh. Nice! I kinda lost track doom-scrolling, so I peeked my head up every once in a while. I guess he thought I was being impatient, but he assured me, 5 more minutes... Eventually, he called me over, and I took the thing home. Keep in mind, with traffic... it took about 30 min to get home. So the food was getting a little cool. But it was still VERY crunchy, and tasty. My wife immediately took a bite and said it was SO GOOD. She had the 2 tenders and a side (french fries), while I had the chicken burger. The burger was HUUUUGE. I yielded and got a knife to cut the thing in half so I could eat it properly. Even though it was 30 min... the chicken was still super crispy and had a nice satisfying crunch. It blew CFA out of the water, tbh. Tho I still love CFA! Anyway, this place is really really good. It does 1 thing and does it super well. I'd like to try it again, but eat it there fresh and see if that makes a difference. As it stands, I'm struggling to think of a place better than this.

They also don't have the fried egg, bacon, or white cheddar from the other locations. The basic smash is a solid burger on a really good potato bun. Personally I'm a fan of the truffle smash with grilled onions and black truffle mayo -- I ask them to add tomatoes. The grilled cheese is a bit boring, probably because it's on the kids menu. Next time I'll ask them to add tomatoes and maybe the truffle mayo. The truffle fries are hot and nicely seasoned and topped with parmesan and parsley. They charge extra for the dipping sauces -- but the truffle mayo on truffle fries is worth it. You order at a kiosk which is easy to operate but I had a coupon and couldn't figure that out. The friendly staff was happy to help. My only complaint: for some reason it took a very long time for our food to come out and they didn't seem that busy.

Went to the stand for a later night meal, and it was chill, a couple people sitting around the bar watching the game, and plenty of tables available in the large seating space indoor. Overall the experience was a nice casual bite that I needed, the idea of a medium well patty being the default suggestion definitely had me curious, but at a food spot, im of the mind to try it the way they intended for the most part and i think it worked. The collection of free sauces and toppings is nice, and definitely something to take advantage of cause while the burgers were solid, and I really enjoyed the Havarti Shroom Burger, both burgers still could use a flavor boost, which some of the sauces more than others were great at providing The strawberry birthday shake was the thick, creamy guilt pleasure i had hoped, and i would definitely recommend it while it's available Tip: Definitely lean on the sauces, and get some pickled jalapenos for the best experience with the burgers My Order: Havarti Shroom Burger ($13.75) -- 8.5/10 Stand Burger ($9.95) -- 8/10 Onion Rings ($ ) -- 8/10 Strawberry Birthday Shake ($7.50) - 8.5/10
