Mediterranean Kitchen

This place was amazing from the food, service and the attentive and very friendly staff. Me and my daughter came to dinner and we both enjoyed everything we ordered. I ordered the lamb skewers and my daughter ordered the chicken plate. The meat on both dishes were super moist and juicy. The rice, hummus and salad that came with the plates was very tasty and accommodating. We also order Greek fries and those were super yummy and a large portion. We received complimentary tea and baklava (chocolate baklava) OMG super moist and delicious. I never had chocolate - by far worth coming just for that. The owners walk around and make sure everything is good. They have covered eating area that is open but very comfortable with the heated lamps they have. I will definitely be back again very soon

Was excited to see a Mediterranean place in Burlingame. We were in the area for work and decided to drop in by for lunch. The exterior had a traditional Greek look but when you stepped inside, it was beautiful and modern.There was a giant menu to the left right when you walk in and it resembled Oren's hummus with the clear and easy to follow choices. We decided to order the hummus and a lamb & beef gyro wrap.They brought out our food relatively quickly and off the bat was very underwhelmed by the size of the gyro wrap. The hummus was fantastic - checked all the boxes on what you would expect from a delicious hummus - great texture and flavor. The wrap aside from the underwhelming size did not deliver on the rest. Starting from the wrap itself - in my experience, gyros generally comes with a bread similar to a pita, where it's thicker and can balance out the meat and toppings - this one came with a wrap similar to tortilla/matza, very thin and dry. The meat was good but was dry. Lastly the toppings - gyros usually come with fresh red onions and a healthy amount of tomatoes. This one came with iceberg lettuce with only a few pieces of tomato. It could've benefited from a little more sauce but overall, did not enjoy the gyro.They did provide us with complimentary tea which was phenomenal - I would buy that any day of the week. The service was good too but couldn't get over the gyro wrap.

Amazing Food! Mahammara is super good. The Lamb was tender and tasty. I ordered the Mix combo grill and it was amazing.The service was impeccable, with great attention to details.My wife mentioned it's my birthday while we were paying in the counter. It was a surprise to get a cake after dinner. We also got the hot tea and baklava.We will be back and recommend to our friends and family.Thank you.

Came here after a good work out and it has a wide variety food. I got the chicken gyro plate. Service was pretty quick because you have to order at the cashier first and then they bring the food to you. They have lots of seating and they even have heaters in the outside patio. Good for groups too. I love how they serve us free tea and dessert after our meal. That was a bonus!

Came here on a recommendation from a friend who works in the area. Mediterranean Kitchen is an order-at-the-counter style restaurant with a classier feel. They feature Turkish, Greek, and Middle Eastern food with a twist of standard American fare. They have both indoor and outdoor dining options, with a nice covered patio, and seats on the sidewalk. The menu is pretty big (literally), with lots of options. There are a handful of proteins/main dishes to choose from, and various different ways of ordering it, including hummus bowls, salads, and wraps. They have entrees with dishes like gyros, shish kebab, and kofte. There are plenty of beverage options including: sodas, Snapple, Nesquik, sparkling water, beer, and wine. They also have desserts!ORDER:-Combo Gyros Plate (Marinated lamb & beef, chicken - $19.95) This was solid. The meat was shaved off from the vertical rotating rotisseries. It came with rice, house salad, and hummus.-Hail Caesar Salad (add Chicken Souvlaki - $11.95 + $8.95) Tasty salad, but mostly wanted the chicken. It was essentially little small grilled nuggets. The flavor was on point and I loved the fresh grilled taste.-Greek Fries (Feta cheese, garlic, parsley - $6.95) These were good, not great. Very thin fries, and only the top layer had the toppings. I do wish it had at least twice as much feta/garlic, or layered, as there wasn't much flavor to the fries otherwise. The portion size was generous. Overall this was a very enjoyable meal. The staff was all friendly, and the food was good. Thank you for a delicious experience!IG: @bbnem.eats

This place has a lot of potential but has some work to do to get there. We visited on a sunny fall day which made sitting in their well-decorated patio quite nice.I had the lamb-beef gyros. It was a full plate with hummus rice and salad included. However, worst part of our visit was the rice. It was so sticky and inedible - I could see that some dust was stuck on it due to its stickiness. There was also a tough part in the gyro which should not have been there.Service was fast and everyone was friendly. Hopefully it will be a much better experience next time!

Excellent food. Fresh and large in size. The taste was great. I went with friends and between us we had salmon, gyros and Adana kebab. Every dish was great and reasonably priced. The only reason this is a 4 star is because one item, which was a salad had ingredients missing. It was not as described in the menu. When asked, we were told they did not have all the ingredients available. That's fine but it's best to be upfront about something like that. We'd be happy to order something else!Customer service was great. Very polite and willing to help. They have a lovely patio outside too. Nicely decorated place for a casual dinner

My new favorite. The food was incredible, we had the baba ghanoush and the lamb & beef gyros plate. We also tried the regular and chocolate baklava. Both are good, but definitely try the chocolate! I was recommended the Prodom Turkish red wine and it did not disappoint. I would have bought a bottle to take if I could have. The staff were all super friendly and the place had a comfortable and cute vibe. They brought us a really nice tea at the end as well!

This place is one of my go-to restaurants in the Downtown Burlingame area. I come here at least a couple of times a month. The food is great, though I admit I'm quite boring in that I typically order their chicken souvlaki plate. The one time that the kitchen did not prepare my ordered item in a timely fashion, I was given their appetizer combo plate on the house as an apology. I do think the restaurant excels with their chicken souvlaki plate, appetizer dips, and knafeh. The other times I have strayed from my typical order, I have noticed the protein on a plate (i.e. lamb) to be cooked a little dry though the seasoning was still great. The reason I give this place a 5* review (compared to 4*) is largely for the staff's attentiveness and kindness. On every other occasion I have been here, the staff seems to always provide baklava and Turkish tea on the house. Overall, the consistent quality of the food and the service are the reasons I return here. Perhaps next time I will finally order something different!

The hummus lamb and beef gyro bowl was a bit of a letdown. The meat was dry and lacked the juiciness I was expecting. It also would have been a nice touch to include a piece of pita with the meal, as it felt incomplete without it.The highlight, though, was the complimentary baklava, which was served warm and absolutely delicious--a perfect sweet ending to the meal.
