Best Mediterranean Restaurants in Foster City

What a treat to have this gem in San Carlos! The food was delicious and perfectly prepared, service friendly and attentive and the atmosphere welcoming and fun. Loved having live music and a full bar; will definitely be returning.

Great food and nice restaurant inside and service was perfect!!

Fourth time eating here and another outstanding meal. Restaurant and bar was packed on a wet Friday night and full of energy. All dishes (steak, chicken and moussaka) were excellent. Creative cocktail selections.

We really enjoyed our dinner at Nopa. Beginning with the bread and butter. All I can say is order it. Next we had the Tortelli which was excellent (not to be missed). We also had the Tagliatelle with the bolognese sauce which was very good. For dessert we had the key lime pie which was good but the ice cream that came for the birthday person was outstanding. Our server who was excellent said it was ginger snap but it didn’t taste like ginger. Best ice cream I’ve ever eaten. Can’t wait to go back for my birthday and have that ice cream.

Dinner was a mixture. My Keftedes Saltsa, three ground lamb and beef meatballs in a tomato sauce topped with yogurt was delicious. The other diners had the Avgolemono soup which they said was quite tasty. My entree, Beef Souvlaki, two skewers of marinated tenderloin, though a bit salty, was indeed tender, very flavorful, and cooked to a medium rare, as requested. The only disappointment was the Moussaka, a baked casserole of roasted eggplant, zucchini, potatoes and béchamel sauce with rice, and thus is a vegetarian version of the classical dish made with ground beef. Fine for vegetarians, but it was not memorable. Wish that they would make the traditional dish. Service was excellent. Corkage is $25.00.
