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!!!!!
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!
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 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.
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.
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.
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?
Very nice and great service. Super clean. They have many food options. The food was fresh and delicious
Delightful experience at PiddeG. The meze sampler - featuring falafel and dolma - was fresh and flavorful, and the triangle baklava, with its delicate honey and pistachio layers, provided the perfect sweet finish to the meal. We're looking forward to returning to try their signature pidde, a traditional Turkish flatbread often compared to pizza - especially the diced beef variation, which is said to be one of their most popular offerings. As a fun cultural note, I learned from a Turkish friend that "PiddeG" is pronounced "PEETA-GYEE." In Turkish, adding a "G" to a word signifies a place where that item is served - making PiddeG literally "a place that serves pide."

The hype is real; we had a delicious lunch at PiddeG Mediterrain Eatery on Ygnacio Valley Road in Walnut Creek last weekend! We ordered two Piddes: a vegetarian and a half hash brown, half lamb/beef. A Pidde (Pide) is a Turkish flatbread that's shaped like a boat. I expected it to be heavy, but it's not; it's a very thin and flavorful crust. Both were delish, but I really enjoyed the veggie. We also ordered a couple of kebab plates, lamb, and grilled salmon. Both were well seasoned and perfectly cooked. I would definitely order everything again. They also make pastries in-house; Turkish delight and baklava are available, along with kunefe. Service was wonderful; they even brought complimentary tea! Everyone was so friendly! read more

So my son introduced us to Pidde G! He noticed they sold Turkish Delight!! Growing up, we read them the story The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe where the character Edmund received some Turkish Delight candy . My kids wanted to see what that was and so living close to Berkeley, we found that different cultures made this wonderful treat. When we visited Seattle, across from Pike's Market , we discovered a Turkish Delight shop and yes, we bought a lot of different flavors of Turkish Delight! We were hooked on Turkish Delight and the desire to find local sources meant more trips to Berkeley! Now I wrote all that to say, PIDDE G is a local store that carries different varieties of absolutely delicious Turkish Delight !! We also tried one of their baklava, the Pistachio Baklava. I bake baklava so I am not usually interested in buying baklava, however my husband wanted to try their Pistachio Baklava. It was seriously wonderful and hadn't lost its crunch. It was just the right amount of sweetness! I would buy it again. As for the Turkish Delight, we bought a sample box to try different flavors to find our favorite ones. We also bought two rolls of Turkish Delight that we knew we'd like based on the ingredients . The young man who was helping us cut it into slices and boxed it for us. Pidde G also sells food. I just looked up other reviews for Pidde G. The name Pidde is a traditional Turkish flatbread like a Turkish pizza, "as its crusty is more pizza-like than most flatbreads. As with a pizza, you can choose the toppings you'd like to have inside." The review recommended choosing a diced beef, "which is apparently one of the most popular toppings." So we are going back tomorrow to try their Turkish food!! I want to try their dolmas and Baba ghanoush. We want to try the Pidde as well. I am so glad to live in an area where spectacular cuisine is offered!! I csn tell Pidde G is quickly going to be one of our favorite restaurant with fantastic Turkish Delight and Turkish food!! I will update and review the food tomorrow!! read more

Absolutely loved this place! The staff were incredibly warm, welcoming, and attentive from start to finish. We tried the sujuk pide, pastirma pide, and lahmacun, everything came out super fast and tasted amazingly fresh and flavorful. The kids had a chicken wrap and a beef & lamb wrap, and they devoured every bite. It's not always easy to find a spot that pleases everyone, but this one definitely did. The baklava triangle was so delicious. We grabbed one to go and then turned around and headed back to get more. If I lived closer, I'd be here all the time! This would easily become a regular go-to. Highly recommend! read more

I'll definitely be coming back next time I'm in the area highly recommend! read more

My 2nd time here & everything I've tried are delicious! PiddeG did NOT disappoint. The lahmacun was perfectly crispy and packed with bold, savory flavor -- easily one of the best I've had. The pidde was just as impressive: warm, soft on the inside with lightly crispy edges, shaped like a Turkish flatbread boat and loaded with flavorful, well-seasoned toppings. We also ordered şiş kebap (Turkish BBQ skewers) and they were juicy, smoky, and grilled to perfection. To top it off, the pistachio baklava was sweet, flaky, and rich without being overwhelming, and the Turkish delight was soft, chewy, fragrant, and a perfect little treat to end the meal with a complimentary hot Turkish tea! Everything tasted fresh and authentic. If you're craving legit Turkish food, this place is a must. I'll definitely be back again! read more

Amazing Turkish spot for authentic pidde! The lahmacun was thin, flavorful, and delicious, and the soujuk pidde was just as tasty. Prices are very reasonable, the place is clean and modern, and the staff were super friendly. I went midday and it was nearly full with families..great vibe overall! read more

The food here is absolutely incredible. I got the ground chicken kebab bowl and it was hands down THE BEST version of this that I have ever had. Juicy and the spices are delicious. My mom got the wrap and also loved hers. The portions are so big (she took half of her wrap home). They also offer complimentary Turkish tea after your meal (strong and perfect for after a big meal). Turkish delights are also very good (although pricey) and worth trying for sure! read more

Absolutely amazing. My family is Turkish, and this is hands down the most delicious Turkish food. Scratch that, it's the best FOOD period- no matter the ethnicity!!! We had the lahmacun today. Fresh, delicious, and not heavy or greasy like most "Mediterranean" places I've been. And the staff is so friendly and gracious! My mom's baklava has been the best since I was a kid...and she's been dethroned- PiddeG has the best baklava. Even my mom admits it, lol! Cannot wait to have my next meal there. read more

Went in when it wasn't busy at all. The restaurant is very clean with a good amount of tables. The menu is easy to order from and they have many options. We ordered a shaved lamb plate and a beef kebab plate (they call it something else). Everything tasted fresh. The dolmas we ordered were vibrant in taste. Even the baklava was delicious. But, the star of the show is their knafeh! They cook it in their big oven and it comes out perfectly warm with the cheese nicely melted and gooey. I would go back just for that. read more
