Incredible! Fresh, hand made, absolutely delicious - very highly recommended. Family owned! My lamb wrap was fresh, everything top notch flavours. All ingredients were stunning - the lamb itself, the spices, wonderful, make sure you get a bit of tahini to match. The baklava was also incredible. Fries were also amazing - nothing frozen here! Overall a very strong 5/5 stars. Truly a new highlight in the bay area. Don’t miss this!

Simply, Iraklis is the best Mediterranean and authentic food in the whole Bay Area. I tried every single item on their menu and I rate 5 stars on everything on the menu. This is not only about the food, Elias, Di, Grace, and the entire staff are so great, they welcome you as you are going to their homes. I highly recommend this joint and if you are craving authentic Mediterranean stop by and you will not regret it.

Iraklis is a lovely addition to Santa Clara! This family run business puts their heart into their food and service, which is apparent right when you walk in the door. They put a lot of energy into customer service and truly want to make sure you have a great experience. I didn't realize how much I've missed great customer service until I came here! We tried the lamb plate, zaatar & cheese manakeesh, a side of falafel, and were comped fries. I loved the flavor combination of the pickled radish (refreshing), hummus (smooth with a hint of lemon), and lamb (juicy and well seasoned). Everything we ordered was delicious, and we were delighted by the fluffy falafel. I had to get a closeup picture to try to capture it's texture- not dry, like other falafels we've had elsewhere. Their fries are what you wish all fries could be- thick enough to taste that satisfying potato goodness, but thin enough for each bite to be crispy; just perfect. A sign outside advertises "Taco Tuesdays", which I've bookmarked in my mind to try. It looks like you can get 3 of their tacos for the price of 1?!? I will definitely be back to try ALL their other dishes.

Pros: The flavor and portions of the food are great, It’s not too heavy a meal, Everything tastes fresh and balanced! Plus the dessert selection is on point! It’s not a cultural fusion type restaurant which is coo. Cons: The dining area is small, but the atmosphere and aesthetic are nice so when it gets busy, have to take to-go. The menu selection is just several items, it will be nice to get more options as they continue. All in, it’s a great lil spot to get a quick meal and some snacks. Happy to keep going back

Great customer service and delicious food! I would come back here again and again. You have to try the amazing shawarma tacos. The lamb is cooked very well.

I'll start with the positives. Phenomenal service: It's evident that every employee loves what they do and cares for the customers. Excellent food: the lamb by itself is a little too salty for my tastes but it pairs well with the rice and sauces and mellows it out. Other than salt, it's well-seasoned with aromatic spices. Besides the bread, everything is made in-house and the hummus is amazing. The extra acidity brightens it up and gives it more character. My one gripe is the portions a little smaller than expected for the price. However, I think the size is perfect for an adult without having leftovers.

Great new Middle Eastern restaurant in Santa Clara! It literally has the best Middle East food in the whole bay. The only truly authentic food. I especially loved their chicken and lamb shawarma. It tastes just like the shawarma back home. I also had to try their turkish delights and baklavas which were the highlight of my day. Their customer service is great too. They went above and beyond to make me feel at home. I definitely recommend you check them out. They’re family owned and truly care about their customers and their food.

If you're looking for delicious mediterranean food with fantastic service, look no further than Iraklis! Iraklis just opened up 3 weeks ago, and they're already making a name for themselves in town. We stumbled on them after finding them nearby on Google Maps with a 5-star rating. Very glad we ended up choosing to come here! My parents and I ordered the Armenian Sujuk, Lamb Wrap, and Chicken Wrap, with sides of falafel, tabbouleh, vegan kofta, garlic spread, and pickled turnip. Mom was a huge fan of the Armenian Sujuk. Dad (who loves a “menu on the wall” type restaurant) said the Lamb Wrap reminded him of growing up in Lebanon. I always get Chicken Wraps and this one was really special… it had pomegranate molasses in it to give it a really unique taste. And the showstealer was the Falafel… I think this might be one of the nicest falafel we’ve ever had! Crispy brown outside with soft fluffy inside, and tasted great with the tahini dip or garlic spread. They cook everything to order, and it comes out tasting very fresh. Best of all was the service. Grace was so friendly and kind, helping us navigate the menu, conversing with us, and making sure we had everything we needed for a wonderful dining experience. And Elias (co-owner + chef) came out to chat and see how we liked the food. Great to see the team interacting with their customers this way. You could tell everyone dining at the restaurant was having a good time and well taken care of. Thank you Grace, Elias, and team for an excellent dining experience. Welcome to the neighborhood!
