46 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Brea

“The Best of Mediterranean“

“I usually order online because I like to just grab my food and go. I work near the La Habra location, but I’m almost always disappointed there—they’re pretty stingy with the portions and my bowl is never exactly what I order.

The Brea location is completely different. Every bowl I’ve ordered has been a 10/10 with generous portions, fresh ingredients, and great consistency. I’d much rather stick to the Brea location because I know I’m getting a great meal every time!“

“We love love your restaurant!! You have the best grilled chicken ever!! We dine here about twice a month. We love Paris she is a fantastic server. Thank you so much for a wonderful experience every time. ❤️“

“Excellent food, good service“

“Cava is literally my favorite! This was my first time visiting this location. The restaurant was clean and well-kept, and the food was fresh and delicious!
Jenny was very friendly and professional, and made the whole experience smooth and welcoming. I’ll definitely be back!“

“I had a great experience at CAVA thanks to Danna and Analeen. From the moment I walked in, they were both friendly, welcoming, and attentive. They took their time to make sure my order was prepared correctly and answered my questions with a positive attitude. Even during a busy time, they stayed professional, efficient, and provided excellent customer service. It’s clear they care about creating a great experience for customers. Their kindness and energy made my visit enjoyable, and I’ll definitely be coming back. Thank you, Danna and Analeen, for going above and beyond!“

“Healthy and Delicious! Luna Grill is my go-to when I want something that is absolutely tasty and makes me feel good. Their chicken, beef, (shrimp at some locations), salads, hummus, and warm pita slices provide a great source of protein, with flavorful Mediterranean seasoning. Their staff is always friendly and helpful - the location I take my elderly mother to always remembers to bring me an extra plate so we can share a platter (there’s plenty) without me asking. Food is made fresh to order in kitchens that always look clean. Get full and healthy here!“

“Shout out to Baran Mediterranean restaurant. We had a superbowl/ 50th birthday party yesterday and everything was literally perfect. Food/staff/ decorations/ cake, everything was perfect. There's nothing I would change or do differently. We had a party of 80 and everyone has been texting today saying how good the food was. Go try them out, you won't regret it. Owners are pretty amazing too, super friendly and down to earth. Thank you Baran!!!!❤️“

“Un buen servicio y la comida rica“

“This terrific restaurant has been my go-to choice for Mediterranean food in the Whittier-La Mirada area for years. Their plates are pretty to look at and filling. Today my wife and I split a kofta plate and a lamb pita sandwich. The kofta in a particular was wonderfully spiced and tender. Though we did not order it today, they have the best falafel. They also do a great job with large catering orders. We've used them for parties in the past, and our guests always came away happy“

“First time here and what a delicious surprise. Ordered a Mediterranean chicken Doner Wrap and it was great. Decent portion, the combination of ingredients plus the garlic aioli sauce made my day.
And also the servers were so attentive too.
Highly recommended!“

“I never thought vegan food would be so yummy! I got the potato salad and the "favorite dish" of the super nice young man who owns the business. I would definitely recommend it!!!“

“I'm so happy to have landed work nearby and discovered this family-owned Mediterranean gem. You can genuinely taste the quality in every ingredient. Everything feels fresh, thoughtfully prepared, and made with love.

The food is simple, wholesome, and full of flavour. It's the kind of meal that leaves you feeling energized instead of weighed down. Even when they're busy, the team works with ease, warmth, and genuine passion for what they do.

Businesses like this are what make a community thrive. If you're looking for meaningful, high-quality food made by people who truly care, do yourself a favour and support this local family business. Highly recommended.“

“Food is consistently good, service is great, had the chicken kebab and Barramundi plate, both were excellent. Will be back!“

“I got the strawberry banana shake with plant based protein and a couple add-ons (I forgot what they were) and a side of electrolytes before I went to the gym. Everything was great and I'd go back without question, because it's one of very few health conscious smoothie places on Google maps that tends to my high cholesterol and high blood pressure.“

“The food was INCREDIBLE! Very large portions and fresh, healthy choices for all ages. We will definitely come here regularly after our first visit!“

“Amazing place and great people! The taste of the foods were impeccable. We went near the closing time and unfortunately the food served was cold. When I told them about it, they made a new one! Shows how well they care for their customers. Will definitely go back soon. Their Jerusalem bread+chicken shwarma is to die for 😁😁😁“

“Food was excellent. You can taste the quality of ingredients and I mean everything from the tomatoes to the rice was delicious. The tortilla had a bit of a burnt taste to it. Would love to see them upgrade it to something with a little more rise but the wrap portion was massive! 2 burritos in one. Amazing customer service, they go out of their way to serve customers…they get it. Will be back!“

“Good food and good service“

“This is a food truck with several tables available if you want to eat there or you can take the food to go. The food is fresh and delicious. The staff is friendly and helpful. I LOVE this place.“

“My boyfriend and I had a car issue so we decided to grab lunch randomly from this restaurant and we were not disappointed. it looks like a family business and everyone involved is super lovely and they make amazing food. My boyfriend got a beef wrap and I got a chicken Shawarma wrap. I have never had that quality of chicken Shawarma in my life. The spices and flavors were amazing and overall we had a super nice lunch. Highly recommend stopping by and trying their food. We will definitely be back the next time we are in the area.“

“Favorite spot to eat Mediterranean food! Food is always delicious and environment is always clean. Vanesa C., is always super friendly and welcoming every time I’m there! She has great customer service and communication :) I always come back to this location!“

“Great place and healthy food . Portion is big too“

“🥰 love the salmon plate!!!“

“Delicious food! We loved it !“

“We stopped by for a quick dinner, and everything we ordered was delicious. The food was flavorful and had a homemade feeling to it. We got a side of hummus & pita (surprised at how reasonably priced this was!). I got chicken shawarma plate with cabbage salad & tzatziki, and my husband got the kefta plate. Everything was so good! It’s small place, more for a quick bite or take out. Will definitely be back! They offer family size orders also.“

“First time eating here. The food was fire! So fresh and delicious. The girl taking orders was very helpful and answered all of my questions. I ordered a build your own bowl. My base was French fries and Romaine salad. I got feta cheese to make feta fries. In my salad I kept all of the toppings it comes with from tomatoes, cucumber, pickled onions (the BEST here), and more. I added cilantro jalapeno humus, Caesar dressing on the side, kalamata olives, feta cheese, jalapeño, red onions and pita crumbles. For Protein I got the Chicken Shawarma and added extra protein-Shrimp. The shrimp was the star of the show. They were big, plump, deveined, grilled and seasoned to perfection! It also came with a thick, soft pita. One of my friends ordered a shawarma chicken wrap and it was huge. 2 other friends ordered the plate. The plate only comes with the protein and 2 selections and they got rice and veggies with a pita. The bowl and wrap are the best options.
I gave the atmosphere a 3 because the seats are hard seats and it’s not too warm and comfy but the food is worth it. I’m also glad they have Coke brand and also Poppi can drinks and bottled sparkling water.“

“DISCLAIMER***I ate half my food because the smell was amazing to know how delicious it is!

Highly recommend for anyone looking for authentic middle Eastern sharwarma 🙌💕✨ thank you Kimo for sharing your delicious home cooking with us. It is truly an honor 🙏“

“The BEST pita chips and hummus!“

“We arrived earlier than the food truck and almost missed them, but luckily right as we were looking for dinner alternatives they pulled in! Absolutely delicious, we ordered the 24" chicken shawarma meal with extra pickles. The chicken was super delicious, and the fries really hit the spot. Highly recommend!“

“Yes and yes! Great menu! Will be back!“

“Best Turkish food that is easy flavorful consistent and never misses. I love this place“

“The food is quality service is great. I will come back for sure.“

“todo muy rico, excelente trato y no tuve que esperar tanto 😋“

“It was really goooooooood☺️“

“We ordered the spicy hummus, garlic fries, beef shawarma, babakenush?, and cauliflower. My friend saw the baclava and had to try it. So we started with desser. The pistachio was very crispy and chewy and was my friends favorite. The walnut was sweet and chewy which was my favorite. Everything was absolutely delicious! The spicy hummus had a little kick at the beginning but as we ate we didn't taste the kick anymore. The cauliflower is lightly fried and so freaking delicious! I ate it by itself or with some hummus. My friend ate it with the babakanush and some cauliflower sauce and was in love. I tried her babakanush. I don't like eggplant but this was really delicious! Had a lovely garlic flavor that was slightly addicting. The garlic fries was just fries sprinkled with garlic powder but dipped it in the hummus and it was good. The pitas were really good too. I could've eaten more if I wasn't so full. But the beef shawarma was freaking AMAZING!!!!! We both said this was the best Mediterranean food we've ever had. I said no tomatoes to my beef shawarma which I'm glad I did. The flavor was absolutely amazing without it. Definitely 10/10 no complaints at all. And service was awesome too! So kind, friendly, and funny. I can't wait to come back again!“

“So good 😊 5 stars definitely recommend“

“Great food and the staff ….. awesome!“

“Love this place, we try to go and have breakfast every Sunday.“

“Love the food, great service. Super sweet staff. They gave my sister a free cup to drink whatever she wanted. 🤍

Delicious, and good portioned food. Plus the desert is extra yummy. They even have dubai chocolate!“

“Great environment, classy entertainment and the food is very delicious with reasonable prices. And, when it comes to their service it’s outstanding“

“GUYS, if you haven’t tried it, you are MISSING OUT . Soooooo goood.“

“We enjoyed our dinner at the Paradise Garden Grill because of the atmosphere and service. Quesadilla was delicious and worth the money! The tacos and tri-tip steak burrito (misleading since it’s vegan lol) were a bust and wouldn’t get again.“

“K Grill Kabob has the best beef and chicken dishes. Their rice is so tasty that you don’t need any butter. I order from here regularly and thoroughly enjoy all I order each time. I have been a fan of Persian cuisine since I was a kid and K Grill Kabob is the best Persian restaurant in all of Southern California. You should try their great dishes. I know you will enjoy it!“

“Cesar helped make a wrong order right! We came here a few days after getting a wrong online order and he listened to our concern and provided a solution that we could agree on. The food is great as always, make sure you get the combo plate so you can get both the chicken and beef kabobs. Love Zankou, quality food and the service is superb. Only thing is when it gets busy it gets busyyy but they try their best. Zankou is our go to for Mediterranean food!! My only complaint is that it was made clear that apparently corporate is very picky about calling back the store on the same day to make a complaint about an order. I think that’s pretty unreasonable given that I was busy after we received the order and got home to eat it. Anyways the manager at this location made it right, but it’s a bit frustrating that corporate doesn’t have a better way to deal with customer complaints, especially when it was on the fault of the store that sent out the product.“

“It's my first time eating at Nick the Greek, La Mirada and I was pleasantly surprised by the food quality and customer service. I was greeted by George and he was patient enough to explain the menu and recommend the chicken pita and rice plate which was savory and generously served. One thing I look for in an establishment is the cleanliness of their restroom and I can say this location has one of the cleanest restrooms Ive been to. I also recommend the greek yogurt dessert. The girl at the register was also very sweet and greeted kindly. I forgot to ask her name. I went there around 2 pm on a Thursday and it was semi busy and my order took about 10 minutes to be ready. Will come back again when I am in the area.“
