50 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Compton

“Delicious food, I love the shish kebabs & rice! 😋“

“I was in LA for four nights, went to other notable restaurants, and this was by far the best dining experience I had. You feel like you are in a friend's home. All of the dishes were delicious, fresh, vibrant and beautiful. Every detail is intentional. The dishes and platers are stunning and thoughtfully chosen. Highly recommend. If you're in LA, don't miss Chef Okay Inak and Sora.“

“What a treat to find this place! My husband and I both had the falafel pita pockets... they were large enough that we could have shared! The falafel was cooked to perfection. The potatoes were excellent and the lentil soup was delicious, very flavorful. Our waiter was very attentive and the ambience was delightful... really enjoyed the tastefully vibrant decor. Will return!“

“Great food and outstanding and friendly service. Their food is well prepared and with great quality. I d you are looking for al place with healthy food and rich in flavors and variety this is your place“

“food is good but customer service is pretty bad. went here for the first time and did not feel welcomed and worker seemed annoyed i was a little confused on how to order, but i brushed it off. now coming in again hoping for a better experience as i loved my bowl, was met with the same unwelcoming and annoyed vibe. same worker then a literal minute later was laughing in the back with their coworker and slapped one with a glove to then touch the next persons food with that same glove (i saw :/). tbh as im typing this will not be coming back to this location :/

Edit: so I came back(😭) to pickup an online order for my brother and I and I wanted to add something in person, I didn’t feel like chatting in person to make a bowl because of last time, pretty PIT with gorgeous piercings offered a drink + my extra item for free which I thought was super sweet if I changed my review :) felt a lot better coming here after the last interaction lol, thank you again pretty lady for the extras I’m sorry I don’t remember your name to give you credit :(“

“Best meditarranean restaurant in downtown Long Beach for sure ,this place is new and already getting popular in the area“

“We ordered this takeout. I must say, even with a 15 minute drive home, the food was delicious. The food was very, very tasty and cooked to perfection. It was a little pricey but worth it.“

“We are blessed to have this King Mediterráneo in Torrance. The food is delicious and very generous on the portion served. When I go there, I always try to say hello to Ara or Norah. It is such a pleasure to see and talk to them, they make me feel that we are long time friends. For sure I recommend this place and give them a FIVE STAR rating. I assure you will not be disappointed. !!!!!!“

“Made a last minute decision stop at this tiny place (after an appointment at Kaiser down the street) and was VERY pleasantly surprised! It was DELICIOUS! The air-fried falafel was UNIQUE and perfectly crunchy on the outside! It's a MUST try and I'll definitely be back.“

“Great ambiance and amazing food. I had a lot of food… falafel, spicy hummus, kafta kabob, tzatziki loaded with veggies, cheese balls, and baklava. All so delicious and fresh. I even loved the fresh pita and dipping sauce that was complimentary. From the manager and many servers, everyone was pleasant and friendly throughout my time there. I went during happy hour so the specials were great during that time. I’m definitely returning to this Mediterranean restaurant for sure. I loved it.“

“Ordered pick-up because my mom loves Mediterranean food and this place was near the hospital she was staying at. They had the food ready by the time I walked down from the hospital room to my car. The order was put together and ready by the time I got there. The person who welcomed me was super nice and patient with me. It took me 15 minutes to get there and 15 minutes to drive back to the hospital, and the food was still warm. My mom enjoyed the wrap and the ice cream. I think this meal was the most she had eaten during her entire stay in the hospital. We will 100% be eating here again!“

“I have been coming here since 22 years ago. I was happy to see it open again. The guy and his sister are very friendly and nice. Food is amazing . Best Mediterranean food in town . Live it . I'm a fan of this restaurant and I go back on time everytime I come here. Thanks for this amazing place“

“I love love love love Luna Grill. Service is excellent thank you Nadja very nice good atmosphere and the food is delicious very fresh and tasty.“

“Ordered the chicken kebab plate with spicy potatoes and grilled vegetables and it was bursting with flavor! It definitely has a unique taste compared to most medditteran style food.

And the beef shwarma pizza... let me tell you what... WAS A STRAIGHT BANGER! Get extra garlic sauce to dip it in and you'll flalalyyyy to heaven with the first bite.

The owner also gave slice samples of their new vegetarian pizza and it made me want to go vegan. You can taste each vegetable and wasn't overpowered by the sauce.

Restaurant is very clean and the decoration makes you feel like you're in another country. This family owned business is very passionate with making their food taste good with all sorts of unique spices so give this spot a try! You won't regret it ;)“

“Everything ; food; service“

“Love love this little gem. The food was amazing. The owner was so kind. I felt like I was in someone's home. They way they served our food, and brought it out to us. Felt like aunty was cooking just for us. We love you guys so much. And I will definitely be coming back more regularly. Viva Palestina!!!!“

“Food was delicious , menu had so much to choose from“

“I ordered the cinnamon oat latte, and I'm usually not a fan of oatmilk but it was balanced so well against the espresso and the cinnamon that it didn't dominate the flavor. It was a very smooth drink, not too sweet, not too bitter, and not too strong.

My wife got the strawberry matcha latte, and while the matcha was of a decent grade and quality, the strawberry isn't a puree, nor is it like a strawberry creme or milk added in, it's an additive in powder form and she doesn't tend to like that.

Their chocolate croissant, which we shared, was heated up as requested, it came with a line of melted chocolate drizzle on top, which I think was similar to Nutella but less thick in terms of consistency. It was also topped with powder sugar, and it had an inserted line of darker chocolate, maybe 65%, so pretty balanced against the sweetness of everything else involved.

The area the cafe is located in is nice, it's a large promenade with several nicer restaurants (it's also sort of attached to it's restaurant counterpart) and there's plenty to walk around and get some shopping done or walk off the drinks and baked sweets. Plenty of parking as well, and the mall itself is only a block or two north from the cafe.“

“Everything was good and the food was prepared quickly!“

“Jacob was amazing. !!!!! I came in around 9:45 PM December 16th just a little bit before closing And he was so welcoming I had such a terrible day and he put a smile on my face so big and I forgot all about my problems 10 out of 10 customer service!!!!

Healthy good wholesome Mediterranean food

We had a cashier server named Tiani. She was so kind to my wife and I, gave us sincere service with a smile and checked on us after we started the grub fest just because.

She also gave us recommendations and insight on the differences between the spices for the chicken

It was A1 customer service so Thank You CM and Tiani!!

Not only is the food delicious, but they had tunes playing at lunch time, classics from Prince to other ones I can’t even name, nice and steady.“

“Amazing food! We went for my son's birthday lunch and everyone ordered something different it was amazing! Everything tasted wonderful! Service was great and very welcoming staff and the cooks were helpful with questions as well.

“Dynamite Mediterranean spot located in a Lawndale area ghost kitchen. Everything that I tried here was fresh-tasting, well-seasoned and so delicious! Standouts for me were the kafta kabob and the gyro meat. I was very impressed with the authenticity of the flavors and the loving care put into the preparation and the presentation. And, the accompanying baba ganoush was very fresh and tasty. David, the chef and owner (along with his wife) is very friendly and welcoming. I will definitely be returning to try some other items on the menu.“

“Very good food healthy for diabete people“

“REVIEW UPDATE!!!!!

YOU HAVE TO COME TO THIS PLACE!!
One of the best places in LA!!!
Today I had a Kibby plate with fatush!!!
Please come and try, you can thank me later!

When you need a Shawarma, World Famous Grill is here to deliver. The Shawarma was great and I tried the Chicken and The beef because of a confusion, at the end I won... They were both delicious and different. I'm still trying to know how the baklava was. It melt in my mouth. Next time, I will try it slower, but with the amazing taste, I doubt it will be possible.“

“Alan/Yalla Truck provided the attendees at our event with the most delicious meals!
He has a fantastic menu to choose from and gave us the highest quality food and the quantity was most satisfying. His crew was efficient and professional and all through our emails and phone calls, Alan was professional and helpful.

Couldn’t ask for a better experience!
Thank you Alan! Your Yalla Truck should be in high demand.“

“when we first walked in, the staff were friendly by welcoming us, offering us a menu, and recommending their best burgers.

we ordered the swiss mushroom and crispy chicken burgers, both combo so it came with friends and we can grab our soda of choice from the fridge. the place was spacious, clean, and had a lot of tables. once our food was ready, the staff brought it to our table!

swiss mushroom burger - THIS WAS SO GOOD! their beef patty is super juicy and flavorful. i haven’t had a burger like this before that makes you keep wanting to eat it. their beef patty is really really good. everything is so balanced, not overwhelmed by the mushroom or onions and it complimented each flavors perfectly.

crispy chicken burger - the chicken was indeed really crispy and juicy on the inside. this burger tasted like a hearty meal, not too salty or bland, on the higher end than other chicken burgers i’ve tasted.

their fries were crispy and seasoned well! i recommend getting their SPICY GARLIC SAUCE to dip. it was house made and delicious.

Ali, the cashier and who brought our food was so kind and welcome, really excellent customer service. will definitely be back!!“

“I loved this place and would definitely want to come back and visit because their food is so delicious with all of the different fusion food and classic Korean comfort food. specially ddukppokki, kimchi fried rice , kimchi pasta, breakfast sandwiches ,special coffee & juice .“

“QUITE LITERALLY one of the best hidden gems in LA. The chicken skewers are jumbo and the sides are FIRE. The mac and cheese is just as good as the best I've ever had. The brussel sprouts are solid.One of the BEST values out there. And hidden in a super market. Whoda thunk?

Vegetarian options: Brussel sprouts. Vegetable medley.“

“Went yesterday with my Daughters and can I say the food was so amazing. It was everything I hoped it to be. We came all the way from L. A and it was worth the drive. We will definitely be back! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥“

“Great place for a snack. We ordered pita with chicken and vegetables. There was a little mess in the kitchen, but overall everything is very good. The people behind the counter are friendly, the interior is simple and casual, the food is delicious“

“Service was friendly place was clean. Food was made fresh, veggies were crisp. All there house made sauces original garlic was my preference.

I got the grilled steak a little chewy still had the nice grill flavor I’ll try the chicken next time.

Overall a pleasant experience.“
