Plaza Deli Cafe

Chicken tiki masala is one of my favorite dish. When the owner Sam said if you like CTM, you should try my butter chicken. Well, I'm glad I did. Now I know why it was a special item on menu because it's special. It's flavorful and a ting of spiciness. It's smooth and creamy. It was very nice to go with naan but I like the long grain. You gotta have rice with it. It comes with a good portion of meat and decent sized of the creamy butter chicken sauce. Is it perfect? No. For me, I prefer chicken thigh meat instead of breast and I prefer more onion. So good!

Must-try: any of their chicken sandwiches Why visit? A very kind owner greets you with a quant menu that should inspire you because you don't have many options to choose from Protip: try adding caramelized onions to any of the sandwiches

My grilled chicken sandwich was very tasty and fresh. The service was fast and friendly. The place is clean, and in the past, I tried the falafel sandwich, which was also very good. Overall, this is a great deli.

It's been a while since I've been here, but I often think back to the time when I worked in this plaza and remember Sam and his wife, the kindest folks in the restaurant biz that you'll ever meet. The food is always great, and the company even better. Eating here feels just like coming home!

This is a fantastic family-run cafe. They get most of their business from the neighboring tech companies in Mountain View. BUT the business is very much well deserved and not just due to their convenient location for a quick lunch.The must-have is the majadara (lentil) plate! Served on tuesdays and you can do a half ($5) or a whole plate. It comes with lentils topped with fresh tomatoes, cucumbers and fried onions. Also included (even with the half plate) is a side of pita and pickles! I like to request a side of hummus to go along with the pita (I recommend doing this!).I've also tried a chicken shawarma wrap that was absolutely AMAZING! Seems like there is nothing you can go wrong with here. They've also always got a giant tray of brownies sitting near the register that are super super tempting - although I've never caved.Sam and his family are the sweetest and truly care about their customers and making sure you get good food in your belly. I would definitely come back here if I was visiting a friend for lunch on the weekdays :)

First time to the deli today, and it was absolutely incredible! A beautiful family making absolutely delicious food!! The m'jadara was fantastic - tasted like home! You can't go wrong with anything on the menu - The sandwiches are delicious and was surprised to find butter chicken on the menu, also! Come enjoy a delicious lunch while supporting a local family business!!

We had the most joyous , extraordinary experience here. This small, family owned business has been there for 27 years , but have almost been wiped out by Google's purchase of the business park , moving businesses out . Sam, his wife , and his mother make fantastic and reasonably priced Mediterranean food . The warmth and the happiness they exude bring customers in who have been going there for years. Their customers are their family and the customers feel the business is also their home. We didn't want to leave because it was so much fun . There is no indoor seating , but it was lovely to sit outside . Please patronize this business as often as you can . This is a very special family , not to mention the delicious food . I'm sorry I live out of town , or I'd be a regular.

MUST TRY!!! The owner is a gem, so kind and friendly. The sandwich I got was one of the best I have ever tasted. It was authentic and on top of the hot sauce from Belize the owner offered me. Overall, I would go out of my way to eat here anytime I'm in the area.

Small, friendly, great falafel and hummus, limited hours.Went there for the first time this week, and as everybody else said, Sam and his wife are wonderful people.They're only open for lunch, M-Th, and almost all the seating's outside, but it's mid-day in Silicon Valley so that's reliable.My wife had the falafel wrap; I had the platter with hummus, smoky babaganoush, tomato/pepper salad, and pita.The menu's been limited since the pandemic, but besides those I noticed some chicken dishes and there's a daily special and homemade cookies.

Friendly and family owned restaurant with good food selection. I do recommend this place.
