42 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Calabasas

“This place was delicious! Tried it for the first time today for dinner. The humus and falafel taste very original I could tell they use quality ingredients and the entrees were so big we could’ve ordered a lot less. Great food at a great price point and the server was really nice as well!“

“***** tasty food nice and clean place“

“WOW!!!! This place is legit!!! Food was hot, packed with flavor and plentiful!!! The pita was soft and warm. The hummus was on point, the chicken was super legit! Enough food for 2.5 people for sure! Just get an extra pita to split. I got the chicken shawarma. Salad was green and dressing was on point! I’m visiting from Texas and this has been my favorite meal.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 – Absolutely Outstanding Experience at Kabab Village Calabasas!

From the moment I walked into Kabab Village, I could tell this place takes pride in what they do. The restaurant is spotless — tables, floors, and even the small details like the silverware and water glasses are perfectly clean. Cleanliness: 10/10.

The staff is incredibly attentive and welcoming. They check on you just enough to make sure you’re comfortable, but never overbearing. You can tell they genuinely care about their guests and take pride in providing excellent service.

Now, the food absolutely amazing. I ordered the Kubideh Plate, and it was perfection. The meat was tender, juicy, and full of authentic Persian flavor. The rice was fluffy with just the right touch of butter, and the grilled tomatoes added a perfect smoky balance. Every bite tasted fresh and homemade, not like a rushed meal but something made with love and tradition.

You can taste the authenticity in every dish it truly feels like a piece of Persian culture brought to Calabasas. The flavors, presentation, and quality easily make this one of the best Middle Eastern restaurants in the area.

If you’re looking for authentic Persian food, friendly service, and a clean, relaxing environment, Kabob Village is the place to go.

Highly recommend the Koobideh Plate — you won’t be disappointed!“

“We tried the falafel, pita, and hummus and it was amazing! It is one of the best hummus I’ve had- the texture was so smooth and delicious. They are serving out of the Colony food kitchen on Lincoln Blvd in Venice, and we just happened to walk by. Highly recommend!“

“Down to earth vibe, like an old school kitchen. No menu, just whatever the chef is making. All items are simple, clean, and wholesome. Menu changes daily, with fresh ingredients. Their tahini sauce is fire. 5/5 would return. $15 ayce win/win/win“

“I only recently went into Cicek's Chicken and couldn't believe how delicious it was. The quality is consistent every time. The moutabal is to die for, and the garlic sauce hits so good with the chicken. Speaking of which, the chicken is juicy and perfect. The filet mignon is so delicious too. Just tried the baklava and WOW, didn't expect it to be as delicious as it was. I was genuinely surprised. So happy to be a semi-regular now, this place rules. Give it a shot.“

“The lunch special is a really good deal as the food is always hot and delicious. The long grain basmati rice is extremely soft and so delicious. The boneless chicken kabobs are super juicy and cooked to perfection. We also tried the ghormeh sabzi and the gheyme and they were both very good!!! one of my favorite hidden gems on the west side of the valley. The owner is very kind and sweet as the food is made with love.“

“Adore Restaurant & Lounge, Inc. in Los Angeles is an absolute gem that has left me enamored with its exquisite cuisine and elegant ambiance. From the moment I entered, I was captivated by the chic and modern decor, creating an upscale and sophisticated atmosphere that sets the stage for a memorable dining experience.Now, let's talk about the star of the show—the food. Adore Restaurant & Lounge, Inc.'s menu is a culinary journey that fuses creativity and passion to craft dishes that are as visually stunning as they are delicious.“

“Been going to Mediterranean Pita Grill for years and it's always been very consistent. Usually get one of the plates...either the Shrimp Combo, Kabob Combo or Chicken. The plates are a good size and my daughter and I can easily share a plate. If you like just a vegetarian option, I recommend the Falafel Plate. Everything always seems fresh and service is friendly and fairly priced for the quality of the food! Interior is spacious and there is ample seating as well as lots of exterior seating too. Its more of a cafeteria vibe inside, however, everything is very clean.“

“Great food great experience loved it would come agin.“

“My favorite Lebanese place in the valley. Hands down!“

“Amazing food! We tried everything from their beef, fish, chicken kabobs to the variety of rice! Our favorite the lentil with raisens, super delicious! Highly recommend🔥“

“The food is absolutely delicious. I order the lamb shish kebab and the meat is very tender and tasty. The rice is also very delicious, probably the portion is a little too big (I still finished them anyway. Only issue is with the waiting that was too long but hopefully it was only because we came in a big group“

“The food is absolutely delicious, whether you’re enjoying an appetizer or a main course—everything is packed with flavor. The hookah is top-notch, smooth, and enjoyable. The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure you have a great time. And the weekend live music adds such a fun and lively atmosphere! Highly recommend this place for a fantastic night out.“

“Taverna Tony’s is one of my longtime Malibu favorites. The food is always fresh and flavorful, the atmosphere is full of energy, and the patio dining feels like a little escape to the Greek islands. I bring clients and friends here often because it’s relaxed, welcoming, and consistently excellent — the kind of place that really showcases Malibu’s charm. Whether it’s lunch on the patio or dinner with live music, Taverna Tony’s never disappoints.“

“As the only place to get food at the Villa, you are a captive audience, but at least they do a decent job with the feed.

FOOD: A variety of wraps and burgers and salads -- nothing earthshaking, but tasty and of decent proportions. Indeed, I was surprised by the amount of garlic fries that came with my burger.

SERVICE: Everyone was nice. Food, prepped fresh, came pretty promptly.

AMBIANCE: The place is clean and well kept, in the architecture of the modern additions to the Villa complex.

VALUE: The food is pricey. Very pricey. You know how amazing it was that there was no entrance fee (parking notwithstanding)? This feels like where they make a bit of that back.

On the other hand, it is (a) tasty and (b) the only game in town.“

“Excellent food and service.“

“I did the takeout but I had to have the Pinot pasta with sausage but the chicken dinner which I wish I could remember the name of that special someone ordered? Was one of the best meals I’ve ever seen in my life and ever eaten… I had to have a bite of hers lol! The penne pasta with sausage was beyond yum!“

“We had brunch. We ordered French toast, toast with avocado and scrambled eggs, toast with lox. Everything was delicious! The Israeli salads were fresh and savory too! Great place and service!“
