50 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Garden Grove

“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.“

“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.“

“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!!!“

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

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

“Big shoutout and thanks to Diana. She gave our food really fast, seats and tables were clean. Food quality was also really really high. I have enjoyed their burgers every time I came here. Today I have tried the rice bowls, super good and lots of options to choose from .“

“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.“

“Alex helped us out today and he was great. He took our order, repeated it back to us to make sure it was correct, upon delivering the food he brought our more forks and knives, then cleared away our plates at the end. Service was amazing, and the food was too. We got the lunatic sampler plater; the falafel was hot and tasty, the stuffed grapes leaves yummy and the hummus with pita also tasty. The salad had a nice herb dressing.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 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 ♥️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“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!“

“😀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. The service is top notch, and the chef, Mr Cotch is the best. The atmosphere is very pleasant and inviting, it's a great place to have events and parties, dine in, or call and order by phone. I highly recommend it to everyone who enjoys authentic middle eastern cuisine. Cheers.“

“This restaurant is outstanding. I grew up in Egypt where kabob is a main dish. I struggled to find in Southern California a really authentic kabob place that feels like home kabob until I found this restaurant. Literally, I eat ant this restaurant every day. Not to mention, the place is very clean, and the staff is very friendly. I actually lived in several States; I have been in Southern California for three years; and I am so glad that I finally managed to find this restaurant. Truly, it is a “Divine mediterranean” restaurant.“

“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.“

“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!“

“Really, really good food and an affordable price. Clean dining area with helpful service from the staff. Temporary construction on the building next door makes it a bit challenging to park but well worth it. Had the chicken swarma plate, a good size portion of seasoned chicken with delicious fluffy rice and tasty salad.“

“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. ❤️“

“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.“

“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 are from Alaska so we maybe fresh fish snobs... but this was absolutely delish, fast, and priced great. highly recommend so glad we stumbled upon ot!“
