Lunch plate is a great option with nice variety and healthy portion
I've had the pleasure of featuring La Mediterranee Catering twice--once for a gathering with out-of-town colleagues and again for a fundraiser they generously contributed to. In both cases, they absolutely upleveled the experience. One guest, who had literally just flown in from Greece and was skeptical at first, was shocked at how delicious the food was!
La Mediterranee takes a fresh twist on what you think of as Mediterranean--familiar yet elevated, and absolutely addictive (I'm salivating while writing this). The dolmas were fresh and vibrant, the hummus silky and perfectly spiced, and the Chicken Cilicia Fillos--with that subtle cinnamon twist in their melt-in-your-mouth filo--set a new standard for comfort food. NOM NOM. The spanakopita was flaky and savory, the Levant sandwiches were gorgeous and gone in minutes, and the falafel? Spot on. We couldn't stop there and included their baklavah and cake desert which you can see is super preety! Truly a spread that impresses every time.
Beyond the food, the team is a joy to work with--professional, flexible, and genuinely kind. Their contribution elevated the entire atmosphere of our events and left guests raving. We are so grateful for their partnership and cannot recommend them highly enough!

Went here with a friend yesterday and I AM IN LOVE!!!!! I always love Mediterranean food, and this place itself was absolutely top tier! I got the veggie kebabs, and they were SOOOOO DELICIOUS!
While the food was a little pricey, I'm not complaining since we got some pretty generous portions.
I'm 100% coming back!

The food is so flipping good! One of the best tasting hummus I’ve ever had. We ordered the lamb kabobs, beef kabobs and chicken shawarma. The plates came with hummus, rice and lettuce. You won’t be disappointed.

Food really didn't taste fresh and I struggled to finish my food. In particular the tabouleh tasted days old, and the houmous like it was way overprocessed. The filo pastry also tasted stale and reheated - a clear indication it is old.

This remains one of my favorite restaurants in east bay, with a unique, explosive, and comforting vegan menu. Highly recommend the Vegan Meza, featuring the best babaganoush and must-try harissa walnut dip. Chef, waiters, and decor have amazing attention to detail. Thank you, La Mediterranee!

Fresh salad and pita yet the falafel was dry and the falafel salad had a tobasco like sauce. Besides that, everything else was nice :) The lentil soup and chicken soup were very tasty. Also has a nice patio view
