It’s been more than two years in the making, from concept to construction.
The long-awaited restaurant from renowned chef Jose Andrés will open in early December at Stanford Shopping Center in Palo Alto.
Called Zaytinya, the contemporary Mediterranean venture from Andrés and concept chef Michael Costa will focus on the flavors of Turkey, Greece and Lebanon.
Specifics on the opening date have not yet been released.
This will be the first Northern California restaurant for the chef who has made his mark internationally as a humanitarian. The World Central Kitchen Andrés founded feeds residents in disaster areas and war-torn zones around the globe.
However, Andrés is no stranger to Silicon Valley. Starting in 2010, he made occasional visits to lecture and cook at the prestigious International Culinary Center’s Bay Area campus in his role as dean of the Spanish studies program. The Campbell academy closed in 2018.
And in 2020, the man who has made a mission of feeding the world’s hungry and displaced received the John Steinbeck Award from San Jose State University — an honor that goes to artists and activists who, through their work, embody the spirit of the author’s social engagement. Because of the pandemic, the ceremony was a virtual one, with Andres appearing from D.C.

In late summer of that year, they mobilized to feed victims of the Northern California blazes and firefighters, as they had during previous fire seasons.
