31 Best Mediterranean Restaurants in Phoenix

“The owners were very welcoming and let us try some of their very well-seasoned meats before ordering (it wasn't busy at the time we went). Food was fresh and so flavorful! None of the meat was dry either. We got the grill combo platter and the chicken shawarma platter which come with hummus, salad, pita, and rice.

We ended our meal with fresh pistachio and walnut baklava, which was flaky and nutty! Sooo delicious ?

Overall, it felt like I was coming home to visit family over a warm meal ☺️ I would highly recommend Sasa!“

“Delicious! Fresh! Friendly and professional customer service!!!!! Great experience! I will go there again…..“

“I recently visited "The Palms Mediterranean Kitchen", and I must say, it’s the closest thing I've found to my experiences in Europe and the Middle East. Having lived in both regions for many years, I’ve sampled countless Mediterranean restaurants, but none have quite matched the authentic feel and flavors like this one.

From the moment I walked in, I was impressed by the clean and well-organized dining area. Andres, our server, was exceptionally polite and knowledgeable, going out of his way to accommodate my tastes with thoughtful menu adjustments. His expertise made our dining experience even more enjoyable.

Chef Ali prepared everything to perfection, using the freshest vegetables and produce, which I greatly value. Each dish was a delightful reminder of the Mediterranean meals I cherished overseas. After our meal, we were treated to their family-recipe baklava, which provided a sweet, authentic finish to an already outstanding experience.

Though I haven’t frequented many Mediterranean restaurants that I'd return to, The Palms will become a regular stop for me. Its convenient location, less than half a mile away, makes it easy to visit again and explore more of their menu. I went with a friend who is very particular about his food, and even he is eager to bring his family back soon. This place is truly a hidden gem, and I can't recommend it enough!“

“I’ve been on the search for a good Gyro, every place I’ve gone to has sucked but these Gyros from Gyros 101 where to die for !!! I got the gyro plate and my bf got the Philly gyro and we ate every single peace off our plate !!! And the owner was so nice and respectful. Definitely would recommend !!! Love Love Love !!!“

“This place is so good! Everything is fresh, the food is delicious, the people that work there are friendly and it is very clean.“

“This place is delicious. Mind you, I’ve never had Iraqi/ Middle Eastern food to tell you whether or not it’s authentic but I can tell you it’s very flavorful! I highly recommend the Mashwai combo. It has a little bit of everything. Chicken, beef, lamb/beef mix and two types of rice both of which are cooked to perfection. They give you this warm bread/pita? and serve it with hummus and it’s ?. They also have a middle eastern cardamom tea that’s soo good. Upon initially entering it is a little bit confusing to know if you order and then sit or if your table is waited, especially because everyone is always working so they may not greet you at entrance (at least that was my experience) right away.
Order upfront if it’s to-go but have a seat if you’re sitting down to eat there. After a few visits it’s clear to see that they remember you and treat you almost like family.
One thing that I take in to account personally is plating and they do it well. ?

Kid-friendliness: Booths available and my picky eater loves the rice.“

“This place is to die for, me and my fiancé came to have a meal and I absolutely will be back. He’s Arabic and really enjoys his Mediterranean food, and he even agreed it’s some of the best he’s had in the states. The atmosphere is nice and the food came out quick. So happy with the experience we will be back.“

“Best Greek Food in the valley!!! You could get a side of their Tzatziki, bring it home, put it on cardboard and it would be the best cardboard you ever ate!! Seriously though, big portions, amazing food, fair prices!! You won't be sorry!!!“

“Grocery store is still open but a fire closed the restaurant portion of the business. Lots of different options in the grocery that you won't find in the regular supermarkets, great place to pick up authentic ingredients to make your own meals at home!“

Parking: It's in a strip mall so not a lot of parking but plenty when we were there“

“This is a fastfood restaurant where you can enjoy a refreshing meal. I visited with a friend and all the food we ordered was very clean and fresh. Because it's in the city center, it's a good place for office workers nearby, so I highly recommend it because it's reasonably priced and has guaranteed flavor. I had teriyaki chicken and onion rings, and my friend had a sandwich, and the French fries were delicious because the oil was clean. There were a variety of drinks, so I was able to eat comfortably and comfortably.
Highly recommend!~~~“

“I have eaten here a number of times. The owner is of Afghan and Indian descent. The food is great and I recommend the Kabab Combo Plate. They have the best falafel in town and I crave it about once a week. This is our go to for gyros but the rice and falafel are what brings us back.“
