The food was so delicious. So authentic. It brought back memories fr Turkey/Egypt. We had ordered the Chipotle shrimp to start off, & then the Chicken Kabab plate. Next time I def want to try the Manti though. The Baklava for dessert was just as good!! Very yummy. Service was good as well. Ambiance was very cute!! Insta worthy!! I'll def be back. read more

Tried the mixed platter and it absolutely delivered. Every bite felt intentional and balanced. The meats were perfectly grilled--juicy, flavorful, and with just the right char. The shrimp stood out, tender and well-seasoned, while the beef and chicken were equally satisfying. Paired with warm, soft pita, the hummus and tzatziki elevated everything--creamy, fresh, and full of flavor without overpowering the dish. The sides complemented the platter beautifully, especially the rice and grilled vegetables, adding texture and variety. You can tell there's real attention to quality and execution here. The ambiance sealed the experience. Cozy lighting, clean design, and a relaxed outdoor patio created a vibe that's perfect for a date or a chill night out. Service felt smooth and welcoming without being intrusive. Overall, everything just clicked--food, atmosphere, and experience. This is the kind of spot you come back to, not just for the meal, but for the full vibe. read more

Came by for an early dinner and was really impressed with the quality of the food. The Caesar was well dressed, the burger perfectly medium with a hint of the grill and the waffle fries perfectly seasoned. The spaghetti arrabbiata was done to perfection - just the right amount of spice and nice al dente chew. Will return if in the neighborhood! read more

Modern and elegant decor, nice ambiance for some photos. Really like the gold chairs and the set up. You enter and first there's a bar if you just want a drink, go further in and there are dining tables, further in is another room for hookah. Def a club vibe with the upbeat music, a place to party Hookah gets popular after 9pm. Into the late hours Friendly and kind staff Food- -mix platter for 2 people: a good medley of chicken, Shrimp, lamb, baba ghanoush, Taziki sauce, super thin pita. I like the variety to choose from and try it all -Mara's ice cream: very interesting, it's shaped as an oval piece and very creamy, thick texture, good to share for two people -baba ghanoush eggplant dip comes with plenty of small pita triangle pieces. I love a good dip to start the meal Great addition to this area! read more

Wife and I had a good time here! It's the closest I want to get to clubby vibes as I age: loud-ish rhythmic music, other guests all dressed up, an entertaining couple fighting outside, it was a fun dinner! The food was good (but not amazing and a tad slow), good presentation, and service was very kind. I would be open to coming back. read more

Tried ordering delivery online via their website, but it didn't work. Called in and they didn't know why that was the case so switched to takeout. Baba ghanoush: Nice overall flavors and comes with a side of pita Fettucine with chicken: Very disappointing. The chicken was dry and the sauce lacked much flavor. Would not recommend. Margarita pizza: They must have messed up, because we got just a cheese pizza, which isn't even on the menu. Chicken Pesto pizza: Nothing special. Manti: Missing flavor. Overall, I was quite disappointed with the overall flavor profile. Perhaps it would taste better dine-in, but I can't recommend it for take-out. read more

I came on a Tuesday after dinner for drinks and hookah last minute. I've always seen the cute LED sign and aesthetic on Yelp, and it's the exact same inside. They even have a blanket on the back of the chair in case you're cold. The staff are all so friendly and helped make it real homey. Their hookah was pretty good, we had a premixed one from the menu. Their strawberry lemon drops were fantastic, I easily took down 4. read more

Society was honestly such a laid-back spot to unwind. Good energy, smooth playlists and a super chill atmosphere. I didn't partake in the hookah but I would come back here if I was looking for hookah options, though it was on the pricier side than other lounges I've been to. How perfect that the food was equally great! The authentic flavors really stood out to me, you can tell that fresh ingredients were used! We tried the fried chicken slider, brussel sprouts, wild mushroom pizza, and manti (turkish dumplings). 10/10 for all of them! The waffle cut fries in particular that came with the sliders were so crispy. Brussel sprouts was amazing and also very crispy, drizzled with the right amount of parm. I was very intrigued by the turkish dumplings and it was delicious; the yogurt sauce paired so well with them. There was only a handful of customers at the time we ordered our food so it wasn't busy but the pizza and dumplings did take quite a bit of time to come out. I'm assuming this might be due to them being made-to-order to ensure freshness/flavor but we did get hungry waiting. Aside from this, we had a very positive experience and the place was just a good overall feel. read more

I enjoyed a girl's night dinner with a friend, and both the atmosphere and the cuisine were excellent. Our service was timely and attentive, and the host was exceedingly kind and pleasant. To start, I had a salad and tzatziki with pita bread, which was tasty and substantial. We were halfway full when our dinner arrived. My friend had the beef dish, and I ordered the fish piccata, all of which were delicious and well cooked. They do provide hookah, but we don't partake but for those that do should know thats available. The whole restaurant is so nice. I would definitely come again. read more

Tonight was truly a night to remember. Our server Onur, as well as his peers tended to us from start to finish. This level of hospitality is unmatched and most of all, genuine. Our party of 4 ordered pizza, hummus, salad, wings, cocktails and of course, hookah! The best hookah I've ever had. The food was served fast, hot and fresh. Cheers to the bartender for perfectly crafted cocktails and spirits. The weather was perfect for an Al fresco style dinner and we took advantage of it. The Heat lamps were on and blankets were draped on our chairs. This place is a gem and I cannot wait to return. read more

Took a chance on going somewhere different. It was a different world. It has a great atmosphere and the music is loud enough to put you in a good mood without being loud.

If you have hookah service, they made sure everything was perfect. read more

I booked a table at The Society in Burlingame and specifically mentioned it was my husband's birthday. Not because I expected fireworks -- just maybe a nod, a candle, a warm smile. What did we get? Absolute silence. No acknowledgment whatsoever. A perfect start. Then came the food. Let's focus on the so-called shashlik. I come from a country where people actually know what shashlik is supposed to be: cooked over charcoal, hot, slightly charred, and served fresh off the grill. At The Society, I was served what looked like yesterday's leftovers -- pale, cold chunks of meat, clearly reheated in a microwave. Nine tiny pieces of meat (yes, I counted), skewered on two wooden sticks, separated by massive chunks of raw onion. Two ounces of meat, two ounces of onion, and zero ounces of dignity. Even a hungry dog would turn its nose up at this pathetic parody of shashlik. As a side, they served cold vegetables with more onion and some boiled rice. After forcing myself to finish what I could, half the plate remained -- filled with disgusting, half-raw white onion. I said nothing at the time -- didn't want to ruin my husband's birthday any further. But shame on your chef, and shame on this restaurant. If I could give negative stars, this restaurant would deserve every single one of them. read more

the service is pretty good here! the servers are super nice and i love that they have blankets outside for when it gets a bit cold. the burger tastes pretty good! my only issue is a bit on portion size? i feel as though there can be more fries but the burger itself is delicious! definitely a great ambiance to the place and can get super busy! read more

Hidden gem in Burlingame! I came here on a Friday night for some dinner and hookah and was not disappointed with the entire experience. We were sat immediately around 8:30pm. It did get busier as the night progressed so keep that in mind. The aesthetic of the restaurant is such a vibe, with both indoor seating for non hookah smokers, and cozy outdoor seating that keeps you warm. The hookah was well priced, smooth and lasted all night. The food was also very delicious. I ordered the margarita pizza which was super crispy and delicious. The service was great, and our waitress was the sweetest! This is def going to be my new spot! read more

Absolutely love this place! My initial impressions were that this place was going to be overpriced and bougie and likely won't be worth it, but that it would be cute to try once and see if we'd like it enough to maybe come back, but the ambiance was stunning and the food, service, and hookah were absolutely perfect! Loved the vibes. Our waitress (Elsma, or Elmas? Ah no sorry, I kind of forgot already!) was really great in making sure our table was taken care of. One of the other waiters or hosts was really kind too, but I didn't get his name. We were there for maybe 2.5 hours and at no point did we feel pressured to hurry up our time being there, which was pleasant. My girls and I ordered brussel sprouts and a wild mushroom truffle pizza to share along with the "Dare to Be" hookah flavor. Each thing was beyond our expectations. The brussel sprouts were probably the best brussel sprouts I'd ever had in my life. The way it was marinated with the sweet and tangy balsamic vinegar and whatever else they added to it was perfect. Their wild mushroom truffle pizza? I can't even tell you how perfect that was either - just TRY IT! the truffle was dispersed so well all over the entire pizza without it being overpowering. They did not skimp on anything quality wise. The flavor of the hookah was well mixed too! They tended to the coals really well and made sure everything, like I said a hundred of times, was perfect, lol. Can't wait to go back again! read more

NOTE: we didn't experience the hookah lounge so if you're considering this spot for hookah, ignore this review. we came based in the super high rating of 4.7 on google and yelp. not sure i would agree. ambience we came for dinner only and not hookah. the dining room (non hookah area) is abit odd. there's like 3 bathrooms doors facing the dining tables. the tables are very small so if you order appetizers and entrees you will run out of space. food we got Baba ghanoush, chicken wings, chicken kebab, and beef shashlik. food was bit bland and lacked seasoning. portions were kind of small. it wasn't bad, just didnt live up to the 4.7 rating. felt more like average food. service food came out fast. seemed fine. nothing bad , nothing extraordinary. read more

This place is cute but if you're not one of their regulars or with some sort of middle eastern ethnicity you will get different treatment. It became blatantly obvious how different we were being treated (2 younger non middle eastern females) by our waiter opposed to all the other regulars that came on a Thursday night. I was really excited to go as I am a local in the area but don't have any plans of returning after seeing how it very much so felt like an insiders club. He was attentive with our hookah at least. But didn't ask if we wanted any more drinks, food etc. curious if their tea is complimentary or not. maybe I'll come back again if I want to try their food with a guest visiting as they do look good. read more

It was our first time coming here and the restaurant was very nice. I wasn't sure what the vibe was going to be since it doubles as a hookah bar and that seemed to be what most people came for but we only went for dinner. Nobody else was eating in the dining area except for us. We offered the chicken wings, mushroom pizza, and Turkish pasta, as well as the shashlik. I saw quite mixed reviews about whether or not the food and service were good but it seemed like it was more negative straight off the bat. Our servers were okay but pretty much did the bare minimum. It took a very long time for our food to come out and when it did, it all came out at once and we were sat at a small table so it was very tight. Everything was good but nothing out of the ordinary. Some of the meat on the shashlik was also a bit raw. For dessert we got the tiramisu and kunefe. Both were good, again nothing special. The manager was probably the only one who was very kind and attentive. I'm not sure if it would be worth it to come only to dine honestly but it was good read more

Note to self: $65 for upgraded hookah which includes base price, taxes and no tip. Thanks! read more

Came here since it's one of the few late night eats in the Burlingame area, but have been back well before nighttime. The food is fresh, tasty, great portions. The mezze platter has a unique taste that I enjoyed compared with other similar platters. Clearly, everything is made fresh. We ate in the dining room just before midnight, but most of the action was in the hookah section! Service is friendly, a bit disjointed at times, as in forgetting things particularly one man who may be a manager or owner who looks puzzled a lot as he takes your order. Both sections of the restaurant are gorgeously decorated, a more elevated look. Each bathroom has a unique theme! read more

Great hookah experience at Society Lounge! The atmosphere is stylish and lively, perfect for a night out with friends.

Great local spot in Millbrae! The noodles are fresh, the ingredients are high-quality, and the service is always welcoming.

I love society! It's right in my neighborhood and they are open late which I love. They have two dining areas, one for hookah and one for just dining. Both are beautifully designed and have an amazing playlist. Great place to get some work done, eat and have a drink, or smoke some hookah. The owner is super nice. The food is bomb. I also had the chicken sliders that are not shown. You can order anything everything is fresh guaranteed (and I am very picky!) j recommend the Creole shrimp with the pita bread read more

Had the best time at Society last night with my besties! From the moment we sat down, everything was on point. We sat outside, we thought it would be chilly, but it was actually quite nice, especially because they turned on the heater and better yet, THEY BROUGHT US COZY BLANKETS TOO, how cute!!! The vibes were so chill, the music was just right, not too loud, not too soft, and the whole place had such a cozy, welcoming feel. Shoutout to our server Honor who was amazing. Super friendly, super attentive, and made sure we were taken care of the entire time. He kept checking in, asking if we needed anything, and our coals were changed so fast we didn't even have to ask. That kind of service goes a very long way We got a fruit platter as well as a pot of tea and the fruit platter was so cute and delicious, fresh, colorful, and definitely added to the whole aesthetic of the night. The tea was great too, although I don't put sugar in my tea, it came with a variety of sugars. And the hookah? Smooth, flavorful, and came out really quickly. Overall, 10/10 experience. Great service, great vibes, and a great spot to chill with friends. Definitely coming back, and hopefully Honor is working again because he really made our night extra special. read more
