50 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Diamond Bar

“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!“

“good healthy food and clean environment“

“Small place that looks like fast food, but the food was fresh and delicious good size servings. The owner Carl?? Super nice and friendly, as well as his wife Rula.

Vegetarian options: My friend ordered hummus, baba ganush and grape leaves.

Parking: Large shopping center“

“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!!!!❤️“

“The food here is EXCELENT, but it's very small dining with some outside seating. But the schwarma looked great. Apparently they have a really popular fried chicken and fries dish that looked really good. I'll definitely will have to try that soon. We ordered the family meal with rice and veggies. Side of garlick fries. ?“

“I recently decided to visit The Diplomat in La Verne after being recognized by the Bonita Unified School District for my service to the schools and community. What a great choice! The food was absolutely delicious. My husband and I shared the combo plate with filet, chicken, and ground beef—it was more than enough for the both of us. The filet was juicy and sooo good! Excellent service and a fantastic experience overall. We’ll definitely be back!“

“Wonderful place and great food.“

“very very good.. the animal style fries or crazy style.. I forgot lol.. are the best ever.. you have to try them.. I recommend 👌“

“The Best of Mediterranean“

“I love how tasty their food is. I had the Lafta wrap and a Kafta plate. The way I devoured it all was insane. The flavors were great, the food was fresh, and the restaurant is kept very clean and tidy. The bread in unreal and tastes so good from their oven. I absolutely loved this place and I loo forward to coming back!

Wheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp right by the entrance!“

“Great food , and fair prices. The best Mediterranean food I had in the inland empire. it’s located in the new part of Claremont Village.“

“Lovely healthy food, great hookah options, and wonderful service. I love the atmosphere it’s like a mini vacation.“

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

“The Red Café is an absolute gem in Glendora! Lena, the owner, is incredibly welcoming and genuinely cares about her customers’ satisfaction. She goes above and beyond to make sure everyone leaves happy. The food here is fantastic, with a great variety of options, all made from organic ingredients. And let me tell you, the coffee is simply amazing! Whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or sitting down for a leisurely meal, the outdoor seating provides a lovely atmosphere to enjoy your time. Highly recommend stopping by The Red Café!“

“Garden Salad and request to add the grilled salmon.“

“You should eat here.

Buy 16 ounces of tzatziki and eat it all in one sitting with fries. You won't regret eating 16 ounces of tzatziki in one sitting with fries.

I may or may not have done this and it was great. I will not confirm. But this is a great place to stop by.

Parking: Parking is in the rear but also on the street.“

“Would recommend this place due to great food ,friendly staff great service good prices“

Vegetarian options: Vegan selections are plenty, amazing food.“

“Wonderful welcoming and friendly environment, excellent and authentic Turkish food, and they take the time to answer any questions. Highly recommended!“

“It was really goooooooood☺️“

“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. ❤️“

“This place is absolutely delicious. I randomly popped in while passing through the city and I'm so glad I did. Next Time I'm passing through, I know where to eat. I wish I took a photo to share, but I didnt expect to want to leave a review, but the meal was just so finger-lickin' good! I'll have to plan a 2nd review so I can take some photos before eating next time, lol. Stop in, try them, very worth it!“

“I've been searching for really good stuffed grape leaves since a former co-worker brought some of her home made dolma at work about 8 years ago... I've had some hits (mostly misses), but none compared to the one she made... now this... the search is over. Happy palate!😊 It's my first time here. What can I say? As soon as I entered the place, I can smell good things baking and cooking. The owner showed me trays of fresh baked pastries/pies (spinach, meat & cheese) as he took them out straight from the oven. Everything looked delicious. The service was great. I ordered to go and the owner gave me a sample of the Cheese Burak (Cheese Pie) to eat on the go. I started driving off and as soon as I took my first bite I regretted immediately why I did not order that.Everything we ordered were so flavorful and delicious. They also have the best Hummus. So I will definitely go back to this place. 😊“

“Delicious!! Vegan and veggie​ options too! Hummus and falafal yummy“

“Pretty good experience! The lamb chops were super flavorful and grilled to perfection. The food took a bit longer as I’ve come to expect at Mediterranean spots.

The lamb chops had two sizes and I ordered the larger one and apparently the cashier entered the order incorrectly for the regular size. He let me know after they started cooking and I said I was fine with the regular size combo and didn’t want to go through the hassle of refunding and paying again. It was no biggie. I could probably do better by eating less from time to time.

After the food came out, it seemed like they gave me the large size after all. It wasn’t necessary, but it was a nice gesture. The beets salad, baba ghanoush were great additions to the lamb chops. The rice and pita were a bit lacking and left much to be desired, but the garlic sauce helped. The pita was much thicker than other places and was a bit dry. The rice didn’t have any flavor compared to other Mediterranean spots. I had to mix all the garlic sauce into the rice to give it an upgrade. The beef shawarma was very flavorful and well cooked.

We’ll be back to this place to give it another go.“

“great place, love the fresh vegetables“

“Food was great. Servers were knowledgeable and friendly. Definitely would eat there again.“

“Awesome bakery & daily ,
I ordered some bakery last month and bought few items from the shop ,
The food that I ordered was amazingly delicious reminding me of exactly the food back home in (Homs) Syria ,
I called the 2nd day to order something from the daily to be send by mail , the owner told me that he will be coming to my area in the next few weeks which is like an hour away , sure enough he brought every thing I need ,
This bakery & daily is highly recommended and worth the drive from anywhere in Los Angeles, thank you Ayman“

“A very decent persian restaurant in West Covina. Being Persian myself, I had to give their food a shot. After all, this is the food I grew up eating. And I have to say, they are very satisfactory. They won’t win any awards, but they are good! The meat could have been seasoned better, and salad shirazi was missing some spice as well. But the doogh was absolutely brilliant! The interior is also very nice. The staff are mostly in the back, though. Overall, we had a very nice and satisfactory experience.“

“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! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥“

“This is the best Mediterranean food around. We love the chicken kabob plate. It’s a must have.“

“I love this place....all their dishes are delicious....if you haven't tried it....please do....there's never a day that the lines are out the door....speaks volumes!!!! The owner is a wonderful man....George is his name. So next time you see him call him by his name and you'll see for yourself.... :-)“

“First time there yesterday. Chicken, rice, chipotle hummus, garlic sauce. It was soooooo good!“

“I decided to try this place on a whim during my previous semester of school between classes. I got the chicken kebab bowl, added hummus, and a side of their bread. Huge portions! Did not skimp on the hummus and was well worth the add on price. Food is DELICIOUS! Atmosphere is quieter and relaxing. I enjoy the music they have playing in the background. Over time I began to engage more with the staff and they're all so nice, friendly, and even funny. I love this place. They genuinely care about their customers and the quality of the food they make. Its become a place to relax at between my classes to enjoy good food. I tell everyone I can about it and will continue to eat here.“

“I have been here 4 times already since grand opening on Aug 10th! It's a nice, simple place with great breakfast and lunch foods. Open Monday thru Saturday. Closed Sundays! I like the falafel sandwich, baklava, French croissant, and chicken hummus plate! Coffee they make is good! Stop by and try!!!“

“I always order food to go from here so I can’t comment on the service or atmosphere, but the food is always good. Favorite is the koobideh, but I’ve also had the chicken kabob, rigatoni Rosa, chicken pesto linguine, chicken pesto panini, and the flat iron shish kabob. Everything is good. The chicken is a little dry, but [I believe] it is white meat, so that is to be expected. The koobideh occasionally comes out with one half of the skewer a little more cooked than the other half. No matter, it’s always delicious as is all the food I’ve tried here so I highly recommend it.“

“First time there got there before it closed.I ordered a plate with 2 proteins that were really delicious, chicken and steak. The fire feta and hummus were very good. The price was a little crazy but I really enjoyed the meal. The customer service was awesome.“

“the entire restaurant was clean. My meal was served and prepped to perfection, I absolutely recommend this location and I will be coming back again soon.“

“I used to frequent the Claremont location, was pretty excited not to drive all the way To Claremont. First disappointment, this place doesn’t just sell the only meat, either a pita sandwich or a plate, which I need since I made my own sides. Second disappointment after order something I wanted since you don’t sell just the meat, my order was so over cooked and dry, the cooked seems to and extra sauce to make moist again- pretty disappointed. The service was great, just the quality of food was horrible.“

“If you like to try a variety of spicy dishes along with different types of salads,desserts and drink in a buffet-style setting I recommend this place,try special rice with shrimps and eggs and also don’t forget to use garlic paste for chicken,all meals were fresh and tasty and were acceptable for buffet-style not more.The desserts weren’t to my taste.“

“很棒的希腊风味，和以前去希腊吃的美食一样“

“I have mixed emotions about this place. First, the food is excellent! Buuuuuut, if the older woman who works there can't handle the pressures of the lunch time rush hour, she really should not be working at that time of day. OR, someone needs to step in and help her. It's very obvious that she does not handle stress well. She gets very snappy with the customers, even the nice ones!“

“Delicious Lebanese cuisine. Healthy options and a lovely atmosphere.“

“Good food, good prices the service not to good but food is good“

“My mom and I visited this restaurant for the first time, and it was a wonderful experience! Catherine and Christina were the ones who helped us, and they were both incredibly friendly and helpful, ensuring we had everything we needed. The food was good, especially the garlic ranch pita chips – they were a standout! We’ll definitely be back to try more from the menu. Highly recommend this place for great service and tasty food!“

“well good food great service“

“My favorite brunch spot. I regularly drive here from Pico Rivera just to have their coffee lol. BEST cafe de olla I’ve had from a restaurant. Super friendly and attentive staff and amazing food. My favorite dish is their chilaquiles and adding chorizo, eggs and avocado. Sooo good. Parking is sometimes hard to find only bc this spot is so popular on weekends but there is street parking as well.“
