50 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Burnaby

“Brilliant Donair“

“Went for a birthday brunch ❣️ Excellent service!! Beautiful setting, highly recommend!“

“My partner and I tried Sfinaki earlier this week and loved it! Goli was our server and she was absolutely lovely. We tried the grilled calamari, grilled prawns (that butter sauce is to die for my goodness), lamb shoulder dish, Greek salad with a chicken skewer and of course pita which was so soft and warm. Perfect to dip in the butter sauce (thanks Goli for the tip)! Also, I love tzatziki and theirs was perfect.

Will DEFINITELY be back !“

Alex was very accommodating and helpful while processing food order and figuring out the logistics. Thank you Hungry Zus, we will be back! Irena“

“I went to your restaurant for the first time this Oct. The love you showed us through your food is beyond any words could say. The food was amazing, and the family-style service allowed me to try a variety of excellent Palestinian cuisine. I cannot wait to bring my family and eat again at your restaurant. I HIGHLY recommend your food and restaurant.“

“Homa restaurant has healthy and delicious food and its employees are kind, active and compassionate with new management. Thank you.“

“The best restaurant ever! The staff was so friendly and knowledgeable, the ambience is outstanding but of course …. It’s the food! Absolutely amazing!! Celebrating a birthday and they went over and above to make me feel special. Wish I could do it all over again! Do not miss this restaurant! Well worth every minute.“

“My partner and I have driven past this place a few times, both thinking to ourselves that we want to go to Daddy's Grill just because of its name, lol. Today we finally visited!

Honestly, I had a great time. The menu is both as simple and as varied as it should be. It makes ordering easy. Everything on the menu looks good, so it's hard to go wrong.

The food itself is delicious, cooked perfectly and seasoned well. Very nice choice for salad dressing, all are great flavours combined in one dish. I was offered a large naan with some dipping sauce as an appetizer, and it was so so good.

When it comes to shops offering Persian cuisine, this one is higher class. The food, the service, the interior decor, everything is high quality and the restaurant itself is very clean, including in the bathrooms. I wasn't expecting that! I also came at a busy time, the kitchen is open concept so you can watch the chefs as they cook -- They are very efficient.

There was a man, who I assume is the owner, that was catering to my table. He makes you feel like family. He is such a humble and good person, you can tell the customer experience is very important to him.

There were a couple girls working the tables as well, they approached the right amount of times and no one was over-bearing or over-serving. They have everything perfectly balanced.

I will absolutely come back to this restaurant for its delicious food and also for the great experience. Thanks everyone!“

“The food is very good, and tasty. The people are very friendly. I will recommend this Donair place to everybody. If you hungry go to Donair Dude in the Capilano Mall.“

“Great neighbourhood Greek restaurant. They really care about their clients. Come support them and have some delicious and SIZEABLE portions

Of note, the Portobello mushroom appetiser and the wings were both way better than I expected.“

“Anytime I'm in Vancouver this is always a spot to go to. Birthday celebrations, lunch date or romantic dinner. The food is always delicious, flavorful and perfect balance of spices. I always recommend this place for anytime dinning. The staff are amazing and the recommendations are on point. ny favorite time to go are evenings - intimate and cozy. 5 stars !!!!“

“Definitely one of the best hot sauces in the league !“

“They are the best food, for the best price, and top service. Our favorite place to go. Good old fashion personable service. Not fancy, but who wants fancy shamancy when you get the best of everything else.“

“Delicious grill shawarma and the ambience“

“It’s always awesome to have great and fresh food with amazing varieties of items of both vegetarian and non vegetarian that are sure to please everyone’s taste buds and one such place is there within easy reach and reasonable pricing. This is the place which has been in operation for several years now helping many office workers in the tower and many people in and around the area. The portions come with choice of meats and two vegetable items totally complimentary! For the carb, they serve hot rice with a surprising addition of a fried papad at no charge. This has been my ‘go to’ place for my lunch everyday for many years so long I was working in the tower office and now having retired visit this place without fail whenever I happened to visit downtown Vancouver. Great quality with no change in taste and flavour for years. Checkout their special item of the day, that is on every weekday Recommended highly!

Vegetarian options: Vegetable items - brussels, cabbage, chickpea curry, kidney beans curry, sautéed masala potatoes“

“My friend took me here for my birthday dinner and it was so great! Food was delicious, got the spicy Kalamari and chicken souvlaki which were both delicious. Chicken was tender not dry. Our server was also very kind and helpful. Would for sure come back!“

“While taking a break from strumming, I had the opportunity to try these Mediterranean delicacies on Commercial Drive. They quickly drew my attention and I must confess they are truly delightful.“

“Amazing food, quick in the kitchen and the service is outstanding. They have a very efficient system to ensure that their patrons are well looked after and have everything they need to have an enjoyable dinner experience. Five stars ❤️“

“I've been to Massawa three times now, and every visit has been a great experience. The staff are always incredibly kind, welcoming, and attentive, making you feel right at home. The food is consistently fresh, flavorful, and high quality. Their steak sandwich is especially outstanding—definitely one of my favorites and something I keep coming back for. I do like to come again and indeed would recommend it. Especially they're serving halal meat.“

“I absolutely love this place, the guy who runs it is super sweet and he makes the food super quick. I was a regular here for a while and he memorized my order which made me feel special. The prices are all super reasonable and you can get a full balanced meal that tastes good for less then 20 bucks. This is the only donair shop I ever spend money in.“

“More a 'go if you're in the area' rather than a favorite donair spot for me. Service is friendly. Regular platter portions is sparse, recommend paying for extra chicken to get a decent amount.

Flavor is good, has tabouli salad which is unique for donair places. Donair with decent portions is getting more expensive.“

“Delicious Chicken Wraps. Loves the sauce (tzatziki). Excellent service. Portions are filling.“

“Excellent atmosphere excellent service very good drinks and delicious authentic Greek cuisine. It’s like being back in Mykonos. Especially with the Uzo Mojito. Mmmmm good 😊“

“The portion is 30% less than before. I have been ordering from this place for years, I understand with the inflation and everything that they have the price increase, and I'm OK with that, but I'm not OK with the portion size. I still do love the food is always consistent with flavor, but definitely not happy with a portion. The meat had very little amount in there, And I was gonna charge two dollars for extra hot sauce, which I'm OK paying, but the container was so tiny“

“We had a large group from work that wanted to get together for dinner. Anatoli’s was the only place in North Vancouver that was willing to allow us to order from the regular menu rather than force us into a fixed meal with only a few choices. The atmosphere was great! The food was great .. everyone enjoyed themselves !! Thank you to the staff at Anatoli’s !!!“

“I must be honest I only buy Donair. But his is the best. Haven't found anything equal as good. His secret sauce makes him the King of Donaires. ❤️👍👍“

“Awesome food and service. They have the best calamari that I have found. Well done!“

“A great late-night option for wraps and platters, my personal preference.

Chicken/Lamb/Beef platters are $18.49 each, and my portion was happily hefty when I picked it up in person versus ordering via DoorDash/Uber Eats. It comes with Greek salad, 2x domaldes, 2 potatoes, rice, and a heap of meat that gets covered in 2 sauces of your choice.

I also ordered a side tabbouleh that I wish was more dominant with parsley, but it’s still decent, and quite filling with the extra quinoa.

The location was super clean, and the customer service was sincerely warm and friendly. Not sure what’s with all the negative reviews, but in my opinion, if you enter with a smile, you’ll get served with smiles in return.

Thanks for feeding me!“

“Great food, large portions. The new owners took heed from the past reviews and the portions are huge. The food is excellent and fresh. I highly recommend Donair Dude. And for those who need a midnight snack, they are open till late. Cheers!“

“Delicious desserts, clean and pleasant atmosphere. Had the Bow-tie pastry. So yummy.“

“Osmow’s Shawarma in Steveston is a great spot for quick, satisfying Middle Eastern food. The shawarma is flavorful, well-seasoned, and served in generous portions. Service is fast, the staff are friendly, and it’s a reliable choice when you want a tasty meal without a long wait.“

“Perfect Persian food and environment! We’ll come back again.“

“Anytime I'm in Vancouver this is always a spot to go to. Birthday celebrations, lunch date or romantic dinner. The food is always delicious, flavorful and perfect balance of spices.

“This one was a great find, visiting from Seattle. It's very innovative in its menu, and the spread with vegan dishes is so huge! We had the Hummus plate Shawarma and the Rice Platter Schnitzelonim. Both were super yummy, very well done. And the restaurant interiors have a cool vibe!“

“I loved this place! The staff was so welcoming and sweet :) We ordered 3 chicken shawarmas and they were absolutely delicious, super full and generously sized too. Definitely worth it. I’d 100% recommend checking this place out. If I could give it a 10, I would! yum 😋“

“Good food and excellent service.“

“Don't let the size fool you—this place has a huge personality. It’s a smaller shop, but the staff are absolutely fantastic and kept me laughing the whole time I was browsing. It’s rare to find a spot where the service is this genuine and funny!“

“Came in to try this place out with my parents! Really great place and service, very welcoming and sweet staff. Portions on the Shawarma are not cheap and full of meat, tried out the lamb and chicken it was delicious. Would recommend this place out for sure if you’re ever around.“

“This is one of my favorite Greek restaurants! The food is always fresh, delicious, and full of flavor. The portions are generous, and everything we've tried has been excellent. The staff are friendly, welcoming, and provide amazing service every time.
We also used their catering service, and it was fantastic. The food was well prepared, arrived on time, and everyone loved it. It made our event so easy and stress-free.
Highly recommend this restaurant for both dining in and catering. We will definitely be back“

“Unfortunately, one major issue with this restaurant is that while customers are eating, the servers constantly watch their table and food. This made us feel very uncomfortable throughout our meal, and we experienced this firsthand during our visit two days ago.“

“Greatest customer service ever I was passing by and I called 2 min before they close and the guy still picked up my call and they mad my order it’s my favourite place to eat in surrey by far There A girl and guy working can’t remember their names sadly but Her name starts with P tho 🤣 thanks guys had to leave the review:)“

“I really enjoyed this Mediterranean place to get good. Shawarma with rice and similar items. Everything was made fresh and hot and they gladly customized my order to avoid dairy. The place was clean and tidy and my lunch was super healthy.“
