Grevillea pectinata, commonly known as comb-leaf grevillea, is a shrub in the family Proteaceae. It is endemic to the south-west of Western Australia.

It has a spreading habit and usually grows to between 0.5 and 2.5 metres in height. The red or pink flowers appear in terminal racemes throughout the year.

The species was first formally described by botanist Robert Brown in 1830 in Supplementum primum prodromi florae Novae Hollandiae.
