Mateo Pizza Restaurant

I drove about 35 minutes to try Mateo Pizza, and it was absolutely worth it. This is a halal Turkish pizza spot, and from the first bite, the food was excellent. Everything tasted fresh, well seasoned, and clearly made with care. You can tell they are serious about quality, not just filling you up. What really stood out, though, was the hospitality. The owner and the staff were genuinely welcoming, friendly, and proud of what they do. It felt personal in a way that’s rare, especially in the Bay Area. They took the time to make sure everything was right, and that goes a long way. For me, the most important part is that they bring real Middle Eastern flavor to Silicon Valley. That authentic taste is something I’ve missed since moving to the Bay Area, and Mateo Pizza delivered it perfectly

We were very excited to order from this place as the reviews are awesome, but we unfortunately didn’t think the food live up to the hype. We ordered a couple of pizzas (one four cheese the other was a Mateos special), their traditional turkish Lahmacun and a roast beef flatbread. On the positive side, the ingredients seemed to be of good quality and the four cheese pizza in particular was tasty, the issue is that everything else fell flat. The crusts for everything were way too thin, and on the pizzas not exactly pleasant to bite/eat on on their own, the pizzas barely had any sauce on them so it just felt like eating flatbreads with very little toppings scattered across them. The other two dishes were very forgettable. The boxes with the food were so light that just by holding them I’d thi

Mateo Pizza Restaurant is an absolute gem! The pizza was perfectly cooked with fresh ingredients and incredible flavor, easily some of the best I’ve had. Their pastries are just as impressive, but what truly stood out was the chilled baklava, hands down the highlight of the meal, rich, refreshing, and unforgettable. The staff was warm, attentive, and welcoming, and the atmosphere made it a great spot to relax and enjoy good food. Whether you’re here for a quick bite or a full meal, Mateo’s delivers on every level. Highly recommend to anyone looking for amazing pizza and authentic pastries!

After hearing a lot about Mateo Pizza, I finally had a chance to try it myself. They have a large pizza selections to choose from. We ordered a pizza half a kind and other half is a different kind and it was delicious. We tried their famous Turkish pizza called lahmacun. It was a big piece and delicious. Definitely a must try item. Oh don’t forget to try their house special dessert! It is to die for!

Great food and super friendly staff. A quaint little spot serving excellent dishes. My favorite is the lahmacun—highly recommend!
