50 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near North Vancouver

“We had a great meal for mother's day! The restaurant was packed. The only complaint was we had reservations for the dining room but we're seated in the bar. It wasn't a big deal but my elderly parents found it a little loud. Food was excellent as always. Service was great considering how busy they were“

“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 😊“

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

“A great restaurant for Greek food.“

“This is my all-time favorite restaurant. I was there with my friend Reg for lunch last Tuesday, June 3, 2025. I had heard that they were bringing back burgers and omelets and other favorite lunchtime fares on their new lunch menus. Me and my friend were treated to the best and freshest burger that I have ever eaten in my life. A delicious quarter pound beef patty prepared ground on the spot and prepared fresh for us. I thought I had died and gone to burger heaven. The burger was cooked perfectly with mozzarella cheese, onions, mushrooms, bacon, and lettuce and tomato on a fresh made in restaurant delicious bun. We were the first to be treated to these fantastic burgers and am planning to go back over the weekend and chow down on more burger comfort food. It was out of this world delicious. I had ordered a side of french fries before my meal so when my deluxe burger arrived I chose to have rice on the side. Great choice by me again! ! I just want to thank my friends at Andreas restaurant (North Vancouver) for bringing back burgers to their establishment. It was a bon bon day to have such a delicious lunch at my favorite food place and it was wallet-friendly as well as this big burger meal only cost me CA $15.50. Cheers and thank you for the great meal and service. My server Jason was amazing and super attentive. Can't wait to go back with my friends for lunch this coming weekend. Keep on churning out those delicious and daily fresh made burgers and I just might have all my meals there. Thanks again Andreas restaurant. See you soonest! ! Don Difrancesco“

“My server Anahita exemplified attentiveness and kindness, bringing an incredible personality to the experience. The Lamb Shank was nothing short of amazing, and the food and service were among the best I have ever encountered. I happily awarded the Chelo 5 stars and wholeheartedly recommend it, as you will surely leave satisfied. Located at 1078 Marine Drive, North Vancouver, the restaurant offers ample parking. It is impeccably clean, beautifully decorated, and provides very comfortable seating, whether in a booth or at a table.“

“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.“

“First time ever trying Armenian food. It was fantastic! Great food, great service. Thanks again. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻“

“Great food! Easy access within Vancouver ( we biked here)“

“We ordered food several times for our office meeting lunches (up to 40 orders) and every time the food quality and quantity was amazing and exceeded our expectations. Alex was very accommodating and helpful while processing food order and figuring out the logistics. Thank you Hungry Zus, we will be back! Irena“

“Friendly staff. Quick service. Tasty Food. Perfect breakfast spot. No wait on a Sunday late morning.“

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

“Under new management, but wow are they trying to impress to build this back up! Wine selection very limited but they are just restarting, so we were good with the options. Baklava was home made, the food was well proportioned and the service was personalized. Party of 5 on a Friday night at 8pm, and we were impressed. Surprised it was not more busy! Check it out, we were happy we did.“

“I really wanted to thank this establishment as it provided my family of 4 the best meal since arriving in canada on holiday from uk. We generally eat Persian food in the UK and was delighted to find this place, food, atmosphere and price was excellent. We will be visiting 1 or 2 more times before heading back to the UK.“

“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 !!!!“

“I have not had much experience with Persian Cuisine and I’m glad to have tried Khaghan as their delicious rice, tender meat and delicious appetizer definitely won me over. The amount of food is also incredibly filling.
The atmosphere was great with nice decors and music. Our server was very attentive and nice!“

“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“

“Brilliant Donair“

“I love love love this place. I've only ever done Doordash so I have no idea what it's like inside or if the people who run it are nice, but they seriously stuff those takeout containers with delicious food so they're definitely generous. The mixed chicken/beef platter is my favorite, but we also love the tabblouleh. The rice is in the platter is wonderful. It looks pretty standard, even a little boring (it looks like it's going to be flavourless), but it is seasoned so nicely and is always cooked perfectly. The meats are super flavourful and have crispy edges, and the hummus and little salad that come with the platter are both perfect. The value is great - you get a lot of food for around $20, so much that we always have leftovers. My new Doordash favourite!“

“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.“

“Great food😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊“

“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.“

“absolutely mind blowing.

for under $20 i got a crispy chicken burger and a beer.

kind service, super friendly.
loved the music.

the portion was just crazy though.
i would recommend this place any day.“

“Love this place, except that not all staff are on the same page with how to fill their spoons when making the wraps. Shouldn’t have to ask to have a proper amount — a tsp of filling isn’t sufficient. 2nd time I’ve had a wrap and the first few bites are only pita because it isn’t full.

Normally can get 2 servings out of 1 because they’re big and full! But not always, depends on who makes it-_- which is kinda annoying.“

“Fresh, authentic manaqeesh; friendly service.“

“One of the most establish small business in town for the last 20 years,Bad reviews are not his restaurant. It is the new restaurant next door, it seems they have the same address. I always feel like eating at home in here. I’m at Five Star because he’s the best.“

“Eat here. Its so good. I've been eating shawarma type food for 4 days straight and this is the best one I've had. Super lovely staff as well. Such reasonable prices! Dont miss out. These guys rock.
I had the chicken fries salad box for 13 bucks. Fries were made in front of me...fresh. the chicken was great quality.“

“The savory aroma of seasoned meat fills the air. A warm, soft flatbread cradles the flavorful filling. Fresh toppings add a delightful crunch and zest. Each bite is a burst of textures and tastes. This truly sounds like a satisfying and delicious meal.“

“Incredible restaurant! I'm shocked there wasn't a line down the block to get in! Authentic Italian food was amazing and the atmosphere and staff were wonderful. I can't wait to come back to Vancouver to visit again. Prices were very reasonable. And the food was delicious!“

“Great food and AMAZING service by young man working evening (9pm) of July 17/2025!!! Helped me to get exactly what I was craving - checked with me to see if I wanted a bit more of this or that just to flavor it perfectly - wonderful attention to detail that I didn't even think to request customization on!! I've come before, this topped a previous great experience, it keeps impressing!!!!!“

“Delicious grill shawarma and the ambience“

“😎 Been coming here since these folks took over, around 2010 or so. I do hope they are open again after their recent disaster.“

“Today, I was so hungry that I ordered the chicken shawarma rice and the chicken shawarma rice plate—and honestly, it was the best meal I’ve ever had! The chicken was juicy, perfectly seasoned, and packed with flavor, while the rice was soft and fragrant, making every bite absolutely delightful. I’ve had shawarma before, but nothing compares to this!

I was so impressed that I started joking with the chef, asking him to share the secret recipe. He just smiled and said, “Always do everything with a fool’s heart.” That moment made the experience even more special—it showed how much love and passion they put into their food.

The staff was warm and welcoming, and the atmosphere of the shop felt inviting and authentic. You can tell that every dish is made with care.

If you’re looking for a place where food is made with heart and soul, Afghani Kabul Kebab Donair is the perfect spot. I’ll definitely be back for more! Thank you for such an amazing meal and a memorable experience!“

“My mom and I stopped by for lunch while walking Granville strip. Super awesome food, giant portions, great ladies working there! Will be back for sure!“

“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 ❤️“

“Went to Moltaq in Yaletown today after an event, and I honestly can’t say enough good things about it! The food was absolutely amazing—flavorful, fresh, and beautifully presented. But what truly made the experience unforgettable was the incredible service. Our server, Anna, went above and beyond. She was so patient, kind, and accommodating, even stepping in as our unofficial photographer to help us capture the moment. Honestly, she made us feel so welcome and cared for.
Highly recommend this place—not just for the delicious food but also for the warm and genuine hospitality. We’ll definitely be back!“

“A fantastic Greek restaurant with authentic flavours! I ordered the lamb chops and absolutely loved them! The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the staff was friendly and attentive. A great spot for anyone craving delicious Mediterranean cuisine, can’t wait to return“

“Such a friendly customer service, very police, and professional. The delivery is always on time. Thank you!“

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

“I went in for dinner with a couple friends, having never tried East African cuisine before, because I really wanted to try injera. We got the vegetarian combo for two, kapreto, and hummus, all to share, and oh my lord. Every single part of the dish was absolutely incredible. All of the flavors were so good, on their own and mixed together with anything else. Every bite was different, the varying levels of spice played so well together, the meat and vegetables were all so juicy. We dug in so fast that we didn't even take pictures, we ate until we were all completely stuffed and there was still food left on the table, and before tip it was a little under $20 per person. I haven't been blown away by a restaurant in a long time. The server was very sweet as well. Going to be coming back here again and again!“

“atención rápida , excelente servicio de Laura la chica de Brasil, comida sabrosa y a buen precio.“

“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. ❤️👍👍“

“This place is QUITE!! The wait staff is exceptional and the food is to die for. If as higher rating had been available they would be higher.
We sat outside, the weather was nice. Reservations were for 7pm and we were seated immediately.
It was our 30th anniversary, I made the reservation using the “Open Table” app and when EVERYONE greeted us, they wished us “Happy Anniversary”“

“This place has some of the best food in Vancouver. It's all chickpea based, but they do it soooo well We had members of our party that don't eat onion or garlic and these guys were able to make us soo much without it. The allergens book lists what they could and couldn't eat, so it made it really easy to order The food was amazing, so flavourful, extremely well done and the hummus, to die for. Everything we had we loved and the portion sizes are massive!! We had to take away atleast 50% as they gave us such big portions The only thing that let this place down was the speed of service but we did go on a Saturday night, so it was busy and we were seated and eating within 45 mins. It wasn't big enough of an issue to remove a star but be warned if you're starving and are expecting quick food on a weekend or busy period. Overall, highly highly recommended for anyone looking for great food and good vibes“

“I don’t normally leave reviews for fast food spots since my experiences are usually quick and easy, but I left this location today (Sept 8, around 4:45pm) feeling a bit disappointed.

While ordering, the staff member preparing my food added pickles, which I hadn’t asked for. When I mentioned it, he thought I had requested them. I really dislike pickles and always make sure to leave them out, and since they were chopped and wrapped inside, it wasn’t something I could just remove.

What stood out most to me was the interaction. In my own work in restaurants, I’ve found it goes a long way to simply apologize and make the correction, rather than debating with the guest (he seemed really annoyed with me). The food was remade, which I appreciated, but the exchange left me feeling uncomfortable and not as positive about the experience overall.

As a suggestion, it might help to double-check with customers before finalizing toppings and perhaps adjust the tipping option so it appears after service is provided. I think those changes would really improve the guest experience.“

“Beautiful restaurant. Food was outstanding...very good atmosphere. Our server was excellent, engaging and present , great experience. We will be back.“

“Such a good food and staff, love this place! ❤👌“

“I often visit this place as a friend who used to study in the downtown area swears by this place. Love it. It's actually a bit far from me but my friend and I still visit from time to time to have their food.If you can handle the heat, the Chili Chicken is a must-have. If you don't want anything as spicy, their shawarma, bamboo chicken and lentils are still pretty good.“

“This is not your normal restaurant. This is more like a casual hangout cafe. Walked in to order because I couldn't find a menu online. 0rdered the platter for one and sausage, it was more than enough for 2 people. Platter comes with lots of different favorful meats served with rice and grilled veggies. Try it! Call ahead to pickup!“
