Chicken doner pidde
Breanne B.

You need to check this spot out! I'm still thinking about it, so delicious. Chicken doner pidde Flavorful chicken grilled to perfection. Pidde was blistered and golden, its boat-shaped crust was crisp at the edges yet tender and pleasantly chewy within. The dough carried a subtle char from the oven, giving each bite a warm, smoky depth without overpowering the toppings. At the center, everything is generous but balanced: savory chicken and bubbling cheese, and just enough richness to soak into the bread without making it heavy. The edges provide that satisfying crunch, while the middle remains soft. Ended this meal with one of the best tasting pieces of baklava, sincerely. Clean bright white restaurant. I can only complain about the chairs as they are not hip friendly hahahaha This Turkish and reinvented Mediterranean restaurant hits! Thank you I'll be back!!!!!

Chicken Doner

Came in today after such a nice experience yesterday at Pidde G. Service was friendly again. Got the chicken doner bowl this time around. Tons of grilled chicken, lettuce, pickled veggies and a nice yogurt-based dipping sauce. Comes with a nice piece of warm flatbread. Tried to eat some and save for later, but ended up eating it all. So far Pidde G is 2-2 on my visits!

diced beef pidde
Emily P.

came here around 2 on a Tuesday and had no wait! there's a lot of tables inside to dine in at, I believe one small round table outside pricing is fair for the Bay Area! $15 for a cheese pidde and additional $2-5 for meat! I got the diced beef pidde & a pistachio baklava! the pidde was yummy, it also smells really good :). I did wish the meat was a little juicier & a little more flavorful, but otherwise amazing! as someone who isn't huge on sweets, the pistachio baklava was a perfect hint of sweetness! it wasn't overly sweet, just perfect to where I can still enjoy it. would come back again if in the area!!

Very clean. Turkish Piddle (flatbread). I had it with lamb/beef. Crust was perfect slightly chewy while light crispy. Cheese was yummy. I kind wish it had a bit of acid or chimichuri with but had also gotten a beet Salad so was using the balsamic dressing it. The beet Salad was good pretty basic but ingredients were high quality from balsamic to fresh arugula, feta, some walnuts, beets. They had water with i think mint and lemon. Great place. Want to try their Turkish delights and other desserts.

Most restaurants in downtown Walnut Creek were packed on Father's Day, but I remembered how much I loved this spot--so we gave it a try. There was no line, and the vibe was wonderfully casual and chill. They even serve lemon-mint water, which was a refreshing touch. We ordered some of their most popular dishes( see photo), and every bite was delicious. Even the kids' meal--with a salmon skewer--was surprisingly tasty!

Pidde donor with beef & lamb (19)
Victor G.

Pidde G opened in Jade Garden's space 8ish months ago. Infrastructure mostly similar but for where the service counter & the bake station are. Minimal decor on da walls. Front counter had rows of pistachio Turkish delight varietals. Ordered at counter. Pd. Food brought to table in 10 minutes. Offerings (Turkish): Pidde ala carte with proteins or as plate, wrap, bowl or salad., lahmacun, salads, meze & soup, desserts, kids menu. Bites: Piddle donor (15) +beef & lamb (4) -Pidde is traditional Turiskish boat-shaped flatbread (18" x 3 1/2") baked in stone oven. -saltless, almost thin crust is chewy, crispy. Minced beef & lamb with cheese made nicely nuanced flavas. Has texture of pizza without excess salt. Cool! 5 stars worthy! Immaculate service. Artisan ingredients. Food freshly baked to order. Reasonable prices.

Chicken piddle

Saw this place and my husband had been reading how good it was so we gave it a try. We had the chicken piddle which is cooked in a big pizza oven. It's like a pizza without red sauce. Tasty so give it a try!

[4.5 stars] PiddeG is the newest addition to the Encina Grande plaza that's serving up Mediterranean/ Turkish food! Aside from the Kebab Shop on the other side of Ygnacio Valley Road, this is literally the only other Mediterranean spot in the North Gate neighborhood, so I was very excited to try. [+1 star] Clean, and bright space Upon walking in, my first impression was that the restaurant was clean, bright, and welcoming which created a comfortable atmosphere from the moment you walked in. [+1 star] Smooth ordering process. You pick between one of the following: a wrap, a salad, a bowl, or a plate - all have their own base price. Then you pick a protein and depending on what you choose, it's an additional price onto your base cost. If you don't want any of the above, you can order a pidde (boat shaped flatbread) or a lahmacun (basically pizza). You order with the person at the register. So this can part to get to ordering can take a while depending on how many people are in line in front of you. If you're interested in getting a drink, you can also purchase one from their drink display (appeared to be various soft drinks, carbonated drinks, and yogurt drinks). If you want water, they have a self serve option towards the back of the restaurant. [+1 star] Wide variety of Turkish delights and baklava options. If there are a lot of people in front of you waiting to order, you can pass the time by looking at their dessert counter! There are soooo many Turkish delight options and baklava options - 12 l Turkish delight flavors and 4 baklava varieties to be exact. If you have FOMO like me, get a variety box! They have small and large box options for both the Turkish delights and baklava. [-0.5 star] Staff knowledge on products. Pro tip: if you're thinking about the Turkish delight, get the small box. The person I ordered with at the register didn't seem that knowledgeable about their desserts. I asked if the small assorted box of Turkish delights had the same flavors as the small. He said yes. My friend ordered the large and I ordered the small box. We opened our respective boxes and to our dismay, they were not the same. The large box contained 16 pieces but had more of the what I consider are the traditional Turkish delights such as the ones with rose petals and saffron on the outside. The small box contained 8 pieces with flavors that I was more interested in like strawberries and milk, coconut lemon and milk, and chocolate hazelnut. The pieces in my small box didn't look to be uniform at all. Some pieces were clearly bigger than others. [+1 star] Big portions for food. I ordered the PiddeG salad and added on one chicken skewer and one beef skewer for my protein. The salad had fresh ingredients and both meats were seasoned and cooked very well. I thought the pieces of meat on the skewer were a generous size as well. My SO ordered the beef and lamb wrap which was about the size of his forearm. [+1 star] Fair wait times. Both the salad and the wrap came out in about 10 minutes. We had also ordered a Pidde Doner which is the flatbread with meat (which I cannot remember what type of meat) for two friends that were supposed to come meet us but they didn't end up coming. This particular item took about 20 minutes to come out and i realized it was because they were making the piddes fresh to order in their own pidde oven! When it came out, the pidde was steaming, hot to the touch (that we had to give it a few min to cool down), and was seriously almost the length of the table, no joke (check out my photo)! Overall, PiddeG makes a strong first impression with its clean, welcoming space, smooth ordering concept, and standout portion sizes. While there's a small learning curve with staff knowledge (especially when it comes to desserts), the quality, variety, and value of the food easily make up for it. I'd happily return to when I'm craving Mediterranean/Turkish food close to home. If you're on the fence, come give this place a try!

Finally a turkish spot close to us. Looked small at first upon entrance but they have more seating in the back. food was good not bad. i had the adani beef plate which was okay (the beef was alright) the rest of the plate was good. The appetizer plate with the different options was good and so was the pizza pita. They don't really check up on you if you need anything or not so don't be afraid to call upon them,. workers were friendly.

Fresh ingredients, flavorful food and pristine dining area. Highly recommend. I did not know much about Turkish cuisine before, therefore didn't visit this restaurant until recently. Very impressed.

Beef/Lamb Doner Plate
Dan B.

First trip to Pidde G recently and I enjoyed it. The location is really clean, lots of good lighting and their desserts are right up front to see. The staff were friendly enough and ordering was a breeze. I had the lamb/beef doner plate with a few pieces of pistachio baklava on the side. My order was to-go and now I'm thinking it would've been better enjoyed at the restaurant. Overall, the meat was nice but lacking in flavor. The rice portion was overcooked. The hummus and side sauces were a nice add to complement the meal. The side salad was soggy and didn't have the crisp bite I was looking for. The baklavas (not pictured) tasted nice and would get those again. Looking forward to an in-dining experience next.

Sampler Meze Plate
Andrew E.

I very rarely criticize a restaurant on price as if the quality makes up for it I'm willing to pay and understand today's economy. However at PiddeG, it's sit down restaurant prices for fast casual. The $9 for a piece of baklava was the real killer, I didn't expect it to be over $5. I actually thought it was mischarged. Take this money to a French bakery and you can get an epic chocolate croissant for half price. The baklava was also borderline stale (very surprised as the display looks absolute beautiful! Had my order not been takeout I would have requested a refund)... At $3 a bite I was fully disappointed. At over $50 for mezze plate, Pidde, baklava, and coconut water (had I noticed the pricing on dessert and drink I'd have skipped) this was a pricey takeout for 2. The mezze sampler was pretty good. Nothing off, tasty dishes. Portion was OK. The falafel was fine, fresh. Mezze sampler was the best of the 3 dishes by far. I also ordered a Pidde, the namesake of the restaurant, and at $15 for what is a boat shaped pizza, sans sauce.. I didn't see the appeal. No accoutrements, no sauces, just pretty oily cheese held in with a dough boat. The restaurant is clean. There seemed to be a decent number of people at lunch time. I might consider ordering something else to see if the value might lie in another dish.. a wrap maybe?

Aslan Turkish Street Food hits every single mark and beyond - they even offered me a discount and for all UCSC students, which is completely welcomed by me. I ordered the lamb, and it was so good. The meat was well-cooked and extremely tender. You can tell the counter staff and food prep team really pay attention to the details They cut the lamb into perfectly sized pieces to ensure the flavor of all the fresh ingredients is totally balanced in every single bite. The wrap itself was a huge, generous portion and well served. It is exactly the kind of big, satisfying meal that I was looking for and then some too. Leftovers for tomorrow. The whole vibe of the restaurant is great, too. They have a really cool "Afiyet olsun" sign painted on the wall, and they play cultural music at exactly the right level so you can enjoy the atmosphere and as a kid with autism it was true background and not too loud. The service was incredibly quick, which is perfect when you are hungry. They have both outdoor and inside seating available, and getting there is super easy since there is parking directly across the street. I highly recommend this place.

We stopped into Meyhouse in Palo Alto for some Mediterranean cuisine and happy hour cocktails and…read morehad a fantastic experience. The atmosphere was stylish, welcoming, and perfect for a relaxed evening out. We shared several Mediterranean bites, and everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The quality of the ingredients really stood out, and each dish was packed with flavor. The cocktails were excellent, and my husband especially enjoyed the Japanese whiskey flight, which was a fun way to sample a variety of unique whiskeys. It was a great addition to the meal and made the experience feel even more special. As fans of Pera Mezze House in Roseville, we were excited to learn that Meyhouse shares the same ownership, and the same attention to quality and hospitality definitely shines through. Great food, delicious drinks, and wonderful service. We look forward to coming back the next time we're in Palo Alto!

A disappointing second visit after an amazing first experience…read more Our experience at Meyhouse has been mixed, which is especially disappointing given how much we loved it the first time. We first visited about 1.5-2 years ago for dinner, and it was easily a 5/5 experience. The food, drinks, and dessert were all fantastic. We enjoyed it so much that we were excited to return. Unfortunately, our second visit in October 2026 was a completely different experience. We opted for the prix fixe menu and selected a seafood appetizer and yogurt dip. We were then informed that the seafood appetizer was unavailable, and our server offered hummus as a substitute. Unfortunately, it was one of the worst hummus dishes we've tasted. It had an unpleasant burnt, bitter flavor, with what appeared to be caramelized butter practically floating on top. We sent it back, and our server offered to replace it with a salad. That salad never arrived. The main courses took an exceptionally long time to arrive. At that point, we were just sitting there waiting for food, having had only one appetizer between the two of us. The chicken was decent, but the vegetable entrée was well below average. When it came to dessert, our server asked if we'd like it prepared, mentioning it would take about 10 minutes. We said yes, but it took over 20 minutes to arrive. To be fair, the dessert--semolina with ice cream--was delicious and one of the few highlights of the evening. Service was equally disappointing. At one point, our server accidentally spilled water while refilling a glass and assured us he'd have it cleaned up right away. That never happened. There was a consistent pattern of promising to take care of things and simply not following through. To top it all off, when the check arrived, we noticed an additional $4 charge for the hummus--the very dish that had been offered as a replacement for an unavailable appetizer and that we had sent back because it tasted terrible. What bothered us most wasn't just the food or the delays, but the overall lack of attentiveness and accountability. The service felt indifferent, almost as though our experience didn't matter. It's disappointing to see such a dramatic difference between two visits to the same restaurant. We know Meyhouse is capable of delivering an excellent dining experience because we've experienced it firsthand. Unfortunately, this visit fell far short of that standard. First visit: 5/5. Second visit: 2/5. I genuinely hope this was an off day, but it has certainly made us hesitant to return.

Meyhouse has been on my bookmarks for a while now and in dt Sunnyvale!…read more My friend and I sat down for an earlyish dinner around five. We looked over our menu and had a hard time pronouncing and figuring out what to eat. Our server was so patient with us and explained the entire menu, also told us that he is Turkish and showed us how to pronounce some of the names and letters After much thought, we ordered the acili muhammara (peppers and walnut dip with pomegranate molasses) , Uc Borek (phyllo rolls with 3 type of fillings), and the adana platter (lamb skewer with sides). The bread basket that came with the pepper and pomegranate molasses dip very good, and it was a great start. The pomegranate gave it a hint of sweetness which balanced the heavier pepper flavor The uc boreks were flaky and crispy, and came out hot af. loved the zucchini and cheese filling! The lamb was full of flavor and came with rice and a Greek salad. That being said, the flatbread had a lot of oil, since the skewer was placed on top. The lamb itself was soft and had no gamey taste. The greek salad complimented and contrasted the heavy and rich tastes. We also ordered the pistachio kunefe and ice cream for dessert. The texture of the kunefe was delicious! I loved the stretchy sweet mozzarella and the crispy crunchy of the toasted phyllo dough. We got a side of mastic ice cream to go with the kunefe. slight licorice and herby taste. It was interesting but still good though Thank you Meyhouse for an awesome intro to Turkish food!
