50 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Cypress

“The Kebab Shop is conveniently located in a shipping area near Trader Joe's with ample parking. Ordering at the counter was a snap and the staff was very professional and friendly helping us with our first visit. We decided to try one of their wraps with lamb and steak. After ordering, the staff invited to try some of their choices of yogurt topping. It was a short wait at our table and then our name was called.

The wrap was good sized and filled with lots of meat. I added dill yogurt topping and took a bite; mm mm, so good! The combination of the topping, lamb and fresh veggies were fantastic.

I really enjoyed it and can't wait to go back.“

“The best place to try Bosnian food! I can’t pick one favorite, from cevapi to pizza to pita , this food taste like homemade. All employees are nice and friendly, but the owner is an amazing human being, so humble and approachable, honest and relatable, love chatting with him every time we visit Cali, which is usually 2-3 times a year and we make sure we eat lunch and dinner at Sofra Urbana every day. See you soon! Can’t wait for the most delicious Bosnian food on the west side of the United States.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I visited Papa K in California and it was such a great experience! The Egyptian food is absolutely delicious – authentic, flavorful, and feels just like home. 😋 The portions are very generous, and the prices are really affordable, which makes it even better. The service was excellent; the staff were so kind, welcoming, and always smiling, creating a warm and friendly atmosphere. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for real Egyptian cuisine. I’ll definitely be back! ♥️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ زرت مطعم Papa K في كاليفورنيا وكانت تجربة أكثر من رائعة! الأكل المصري عندهم لذيذ جدًا – طعمه أصيل ومليان نكهات وكأنك في مصر بالظبط. 😋 كمان كميات الأكل كبيرة جدًا والأسعار مناسبة وفي متناول اليد، وده بيخلي التجربة أحلى وأحلى. الخدمة ممتازة؛ الموظفين في منتهى اللطف والترحاب، ودايمًا بيستقبلوا بابتسامة، وده بيخلي الجو دافي ومريح. بجد أنصح أي حد عايز يجرب الأكل المصري الأصيل إنه يزور المكان، وأنا أكيد هرجع تاني ♥️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“My husband and I stopped here on our way home (we live in the I.E.). I was in the mood for authentic Mediterranean food. First of all, this place is so cute! Its super pretty, and its located in a shopping center. Plenty of parking.

Our server was so amazing. Super friendly and attentive. I ordered the chicken kebab with a side of the Mediterranean salad and baba ganoush. It also comes with a side of the garlic sauce. I usually don't like the garlic sauce, but this one was so GOOD. It was like crack. I had it all over my chicken, my pita bread. I even took some of it home.

The price is great and we couldn't even finish all of our food. But that could be from the Glp-1 I'm on. 🤷🏽‍♀“

“Amazing food and customer service!! Everything is always fresh and delicious.“

“😀This restaurant is awesome, the food tastes great, the ingredients are made fresh daily from scratch, and the menu is so rich with a lot of varieties you will love, especially the reasonably priced dishes.

I highly recommend it to everyone who enjoys authentic middle eastern cuisine. Cheers.“

Maritza and staff served us with great customer service even close to closing. A quaint location with a family atmosphere and attentive servers who check on you often, making sure customer satisfaction is met at all aspects. Clean and bright! Will visit again and bring all the family and friends!“

“Was there for lunch and thoroughly enjoyed the food. Very tasty and just the right amount..and price, too!“

“Love this place, my go to. I’m a vegan and there is a huge amount of option for me. The reward program is really awesome too. Today, I was served by Becky, Jenny and Savannah, all of whom were incredibly courteous and efficient. Sometimes when it’s very busy the line can be a bit of a slog (still worth the wait!) but these three had me zooming through!“

“SO good! Highly recommend the ground beef hawawshy & bbq chicken american savory. We devoured ours.“

“This was my third visit to this location, and today was by far my favorite experience. Ruby was incredibly kind and helpful, and she had one of the most welcoming faces. She really made the visit feel warm and enjoyable. She made it worth 5 stars“

“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.“

“Love love love the food , great dinner I fly out here just for this place“

“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.“

“Great service, fantastic food, friendly atmosphere! Loved everything about the place. Can't wait to come back.“

“I love the Salmon bowl! I’m attracted to the Kids eat free Mon-Thursday. I like the kids play area. It’s inside or outside. I will be back for many terrific reasons!“

“My family went out and had a great experience. I had a chicken shawarma plate and it tasted very good. The portions are a decent size and we have leftovers for tomorrow. We also had walnut baclava and it was very good. Not only was the food fantastic but the atmosphere was also great. The owner was very nice and took care of our needs during our visit. Definitely would recommend this place.“

“generous portions and very patient and kind staff! and the food is great too!“

“Tried this gem for the first time today! Fall off the bone chicken and salmon Alfredo with fresh vegetables was delicious. The staff was friendly and gracious. Definitely a new favorite!“

“Awesome food and great service. Atmosphere is what one would expect a strip mall food joint to be. Garlic paste seemed to be house made but the harissa seemed to be sambal oulek (an Asian chili sauce) everything else is really really good, especially the rice.“

“My family and I were looking for a restaurant that serves halal food on our way home. We found this on google maps and had minimal expectations.
Honestly, we were glad we stopped here, We loved it! The gentleman who worked their was super kind and friendly and went above and beyond to make sure we felt comfortable and pleased. So i would give the service 20 out of 10 !
We had kebbeh, lamb chops, and chicken tawook. Kebbeh was served super hot and crispy. Yum.
The other plates were delicious but there is a room for improvement. I would have prefered my tawook to be a little more juicier. But the flavor was their and I would order that again, no doubt.
They also provided us with lentil soup as an extra (probably coz it's ramadan?) And it was a super nice touch. Loved it.
I would come to this place again inshaAllah!
Thank you!“

“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. ❤️“

“Alas, a local place with unique charm, expert staff and a creative menu. We will be back often.“

“If you haven’t been to Cava yet, let me save you the suspense. From the moment you walk in, the ingredients look fresh, and the entire team moves with purpose and professionalism. You can tell right away they take pride in what they do and that starts at the top with Stavo.

Stavo was so sweet, friendly, and overall amazing. I absolutely loved his personality! You can tell he genuinely cares about both the people he works with and every single guest who walks through the door.

Now let me talk about something that surprised me.

I have never tried their Mint Cucumber drink before because I simply do not like anything minty. Ever! Stavo suggested I give it a try. I asked him directly, “Is it minty?” He confidently told me it wasn’t overpowering and that it’s actually one of their top drinks. And let me just say he did not lie!!!!

The Mint Cucumber was divine. So refreshing. Light, crisp, and perfectly balanced. It wasn’t overwhelmingly minty at all just clean and cooling in the best way. Thank you for that suggestion, Stavo. You converted me!

And while we’re here, if you haven’t had their Pita Chips, you are absolutely missing out. They are the BEST. Perfectly crisp, lightly salted, and dangerously addictive. Make sure you get them when they’re fresh and come right out that’s when they’re at their peak. Trust me on this one.

The food is consistently amazing fresh greens, flavorful proteins, creamy hummus, vibrant toppings everything tastes thoughtfully prepared. But what truly makes this location stand out is the experience. The teamwork. The hospitality. The leadership.

Five stars simply don’t feel like enough. 👏🏾“

“Absolutely fantastic food!“

“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.“

“Great service food is good“

“They have very friendly staff and the food is fantastic.“

“We had a great experience here. Gizem and Asli were very friendly, polite, and helpful. Even though we were extremely hungry and had a hard time waiting, the food arrived quickly. Everything was delicious and tasted just like it does in Turkey. Thank you guys.Highly recommend!“

“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!“

“Delicious and amazing service!“

“Such a cute coffee spot with great attention to detail! One of my favorite things is that they can customize the cold foam with any logo or design you want, which makes the drinks feel extra special and perfect for photos. The coffee itself was smooth and delicious, and the presentation was amazing.
Their pastry selection is just as impressive. We tried a few desserts and they were fresh, beautifully made, and tasted as good as they looked. The food menu is also worth mentioning—everything was flavorful and well-prepared.
The atmosphere is cozy, stylish, and perfect for catching up with friends, working, or treating yourself to a coffee date. If you're looking for a café that combines creativity, great drinks, and amazing pastries, this place is definitely worth a visit!
☕🍓🥭🥐 Highly recommend the custom cold foam drinks and pastries—you won't be disappointed.

Loved!!!“

“Issac is absolutely wonderful with a wonderful smile ❤️ He helped me with my grandma on understanding the menu & making suggestions on her choices. My mom who got food from the restaurant next door & has never been here, even said she was coming back because she liked Isaac's spirit.“

“Very pleasant experience here! From the friendly accommodating staff, to the very delicious well prepared fish, it was a treat!! Best fish I’ve ever had! I look forward to coming back! 5⭐️“

“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.“

“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.“

“Seriously the absolute BEST Shawarma I’ve tasted! I got the 24” mix variety and loved being able to try both. Pro tip: Order next time you have friends/family over since they’re already cut and packaged perfectly. That’s what I’ll be doing ;)“

“The BEST pita chips and hummus!“

“I loved the people helping they were fantastic and knew what they were talking about when it came to the excellence of Mediterranean cuizine. On TOP of that, the space is very neat and well organized. Overall very accommodating and excellent service.“

“Delicious food! We loved it !“

“I am now permanently coming to this location, food was much better than the bell location. The kabobs combo was genuinely the best plate I have had in LA. High five to the amazing cook here!! Highly recommend it. I didnt even get to take a picture of the food because it was so good I just devoured it 😁“

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

“Tried out your Cerritos location, I lived in LA almost 3years and food especially the kebab wrap was the best by far and I have tried different kebab place’s before in LA. One of the best Kebab place in America, the lamb was moist and very tasty with great flavors, the combination of the hummus, salad, fries combined with the lamb was delicious, the fresh flat bread was soft and crispy on the outside. Add the garlic yogurt sauce wow your tastebuds explodes in your mouth, the food was very lite and not heavy like most kebab place so they got the right balance by using the flat bread and not pita bread that most place use on the wrap Well done this place remind me of a place back home in New Zealand. I give The Kebab shop in Cerritos 10/10 Highly Recommend this place to my friends and family and different locations in America. Will go again and try something different on the menu.“

“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.“

“My sister thought that she put in a catering order for a galentines brunch. When I arrived at the Huntington Beach location the next day she had not completed the order. Luckily, I had Adriana helping me! She helped me get food for 10 hungry women..we decided together on what to order and how to make it as budget friendly as possible. She and the employees at the HB spot had the food ready and packed for me in 15 minutes!!“

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