Waterfront Pizza and Mediterranean

this is so far my favorite mediterranean restaurant in the bay.  the ambiance and location is perfect. i went there with a friend for lunch and we had a patio seating near the water. one could see ducks swimming, boats passing by and athletes kayaking. the line of rich houses which have their own boats was very picturesque.

the ambiance was not only perfect, the food was also delicious. i ordered lamb shish kabob and my vegetarian friend got falafel wrap-deluxe "falafel, tomatoes and cucumber salad and tahini sauce plus eggplants and potatoes". we both enjoyed our orders. the lamb was tender and so tasty. the salad and other trimmings were very well seasoned, even the rice was tasty! after finishing eating, we stayed a little bit more to enjoy the fresh breeze and scenic view. i'm sure the view at night would also be pretty. i definitely would like to come back here again and try their pizza since it's after all a pizza place too!

Verdict: 4.5/5 (-0.5 for mixing people smoking hookah with non-smoking group)

my teammates and i headed off for lunch to this nice mediterranean restaurant at pruneyard shopping center that's very close to my office. i've been here before and i enjoyed its food so i was looking forward to going back. we tried their "mediterranean meze sampler" which comes with tzatziki, melitzanosalata, falafel, dolma, hummus, tabouli, babaganush and pita. the portion for two was already a lot for us three but it was delicious! i ordered the lamb souvlaki that is marinated lamb with grilled vegetables, white rice and rice pilaf. the lamb was tender, juicy and tasty. i liked the seasoned white rice but wasn't too fond of the rice pilaf. all of us had a great time. the food was served promptly and its taste was great. the service was good and ambiance was nice.
