Best restaurants near me in San Carlos, CA

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

The food was excellent. We especially enjoyed the outstanding jazz trio of Mikel Bee (drummer), pianist, and bassist—excellent taste in the standards, solid rhythms, and savvy voicings. The filet minion souvlaki was delicious. Another nice touch was the tasty hot roll with olive oil while waiting for our order. We did not have a drink since we had to work tomorrow morning, but the bar appeared well-stocked, and the drinks looked attractive. We'll return, especially for the music offered on Monday nights (5-9 pm). It is about time that San Carlos had some hip live music happening again.

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.

Delizie is the best Italian place on the Peninsula! Great food, great people and great music! Francesco the owner is a wonderful guy and trombonist!

Great place to eat and drink, and it is a neighborhood gem. ENJOY
