50 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near La Canada Flintridge

“We come here every week and today was the slowest service to even say hello which nobody told us when we came in. We stand there for five minutes and nobody even acknowledge us but the rest of it. It’s everything Dylan is going table to table. Make sure they were OK so that was very nice. Dining room is way too cold.“

“From the initial greeting, to the lovely outside seating, to the great service staff, to really great flavors, it was a terrific meal. Our whole group concurred, “let’s come back here.”“

“The little plates are yummy. I love the pita bread that came with the hummus (Salatim plate). The other plates were good also. I loved the bread pudding (I think it's better than the best cake). What I like the most about Bacari, besides the beautiful ambiance, is the friendliest staff.“

All of the sauces are very tasty and they are very generous with them. The chicken plate and The Get Greeky bowl are, so far, my favorites. Pricing is fair compared to some other places.
Staff is friendly and attentive.“

May God shower this restaurant with blessings, prosperity, and continued success. We will definitely be back!“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Cafe Elegante in Burbank is truly a hidden gem and one of the most enjoyable dining experiences I’ve had in a long time. From the moment I walked in, I was welcomed with warm hospitality and outstanding customer service that made me feel right at home.

The food was absolutely incredible. The chicken dishes were perfectly seasoned, tender, juicy, and packed with flavor in every bite. The beef was equally impressive—cooked to perfection, rich, flavorful, and incredibly satisfying. You can genuinely tell that great care and attention go into every dish that comes out of the kitchen.

What really stood out were the mouthwatering appetizers. Every appetizer we ordered was fresh, beautifully presented, and bursting with flavor. They were the perfect way to start the meal and left us excited for the main courses. Each bite showcased the quality ingredients and passion that Cafe Elegante puts into its menu.

The atmosphere was welcoming, clean, and comfortable, making it a wonderful place to enjoy a meal with family and friends. Between the exceptional food, generous portions, and attentive service, Cafe Elegante exceeded all expectations.

If you're looking for delicious chicken, flavorful beef dishes, unforgettable appetizers, and a dining experience that leaves you smiling, Cafe Elegante in Burbank is a must-visit. I cannot wait to return and try more of their amazing menu!“

“I moved one block from this restaurant,from all the other places this is one of my top 3 in the area, it's very cozy & most importantly, the food is great & it's very clean, it's casual for quick eat or even for friends & families or dates, I recommend it highly, try the steak Shawarma or the beef & chicken combo plate, im a regular now , I come here at least once a week“

“One of my favorite spots to grab a quick meal. The food is always fresh, flavorful, and consistently good. The staff is friendly and welcoming, and service is always fast. I also love all the sauce options and the healthier menu choices. Portions are generous too—I usually end up with leftovers for later. Definitely a place I keep coming back to!“

“happily 😊 surprised. lunch on the run. Good Chicken!“

“Coffee was delicious! And another time wine was awesome! Michal was attending to us and he was polite and helpful!“

“They have great quality products and they are very friendly“

“In love with this restaurant 🤤🤤🤤“

“I'm at a loss for words, but I'll try my best. Food? Amazing! Perfect amount of seasoning and the portions are huge! And this is coming from a big dude. For the appetizers, my favorites were the Kashk E'bademjan (Eggplant Delight), Potato Salad, and the Hummus! They have more selections, but this is what I was able to try. I hear all are great! For the Entrees, ALL OF THEIR KABOBS ARE FIRE (MMM MMMM YUMMY). I had a sample of most them and in the islands, we would say "broke da mouf kine", which translates to, the food is *beep beep* GOOD! If you've never had Persian Food, or you love it, this is the restaurant for you! Drinks? I love Korean Soju and Cass beer, so yeah, +10 points from me. They do carry various Wines and Beers though...and of course your choice of Soda Pop. Atmosphere? It' gives you a Kewl Kids Vibe; a classy place where you can be yourself with family and friends and just enjoy each others company. You have your choice of Indoor and Outdoor dinning which is amazing. There's also a private room upstairs that can hold 20 people for a meal and karaoke (there is a fee to reserve, but very much worth it). Staff? We were greeted at the door as if we were coming home. Pasha and his staff go above and beyond to make sure all your needs are met. Their suggestions on meal and drink pairings are spot on. I can't thank Pasha and the crew for making our group outing a success. Overall? I'll be going back and I hope that you add this restaurant to your list of 'go to' places to dine at. You will not be disappointed, I promise you. (Unless your attitude stinks or you're not willing to try new food ‍) Pasha again, thank you so much for the hospitality. I already told Fatemeh that I'll be coming back again. سپاسگزارم“

“Pita nachos are awesome! Many different flavors of Hummus!“

“Byblos Mediterranean bakery has the good food , amazing and excellent service, and all the staff at Byblos are very nice, helpful and friendly too. Wishing them all the best And the prefect place to sit and enjoy the meals I rate Byblos Mediterranean baker 5“

“This is such an amazing little place with fantastic food! I’m Armenian, and we Armenians are very picky when it comes to foodwe truly love to eat. This was my first time stopping by, and I was genuinely surprised by how delicious everything was.

I had the cheese borek, the cheese and veggie plate, and the sampler plate, and every single item was incredible. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and made with care.

These guys are the best. Thank you so much—I will definitely be back again!”“

“The overall experience was great. The food was tasty and plentiful. The setting of the room and patio as well as table serving is very pleasant. One negative to note were the drinks: my latte was not satisfying - too small (~12oz.), not enough milk (too much foam for a latte) and per my request for extra steamed milk they offered two Coffeemate creamer pods - all while it set me back $10.40+tax; a 0.5 litter (16.9oz.) bottle of Pellegrino was $4.16+tax.“

“They make the most delicious luleh kabob in Glendale. It tastes exactly like the luleh kabob I had in Iran. Very original. Love their rice and fresh baked flat bread. Amazing gem. Friendly staff ads to the charm of this place. Glad I found them.“

“Forget about the rest. Try the best“

“Is there a way to contact the restaurant? I can’t seem to find a phone number.
I need to reschedule my reservation and I don’t want them to charge my credit card because I can’t make the original reservation. - Alexandria Oliver“

“Amazing food , great ambiance and friendly staff“

“We were visiting from out of town and discovered this wonderful restaurant. The service, food and atmosphere were first rate. I can’t say enough good things about the kind people that run this restaurant. I will definitely come back when we are in LA again. I highly recommend the Casablanca Moroccan Kitchen!“

“Just good quality food . fresh & tasty“

“You can taste the care and attention directly in the food and it's really neat to see how so many traditional dishes have been adapted to be gluten free. Well worth multiple visits. What did bother me and I feel could be improved is the music. Although appreciative for the vibe of the restaurant, nearly everything sounded to be AI generated. I wish they played traditional Lebanese musicians.“

“This place is excellent! One of the best Persian restaurants in Los Angeles ! Wow! I was blown away by the great food. Service and decor was amazing as well.“

“The food was great!! and good company.“

“The place is beautiful, ample parking space, staffs are friendly and accomodating and close to FWY 2 and 5“

“Overall I will give this place a 4 starts. The concept is great and I’m sure it was initially running super great. Right now it feels like is missing more attention, service was ok, not rude just ok, food was good, not necessarily the greatest but I think a 4 starts is well deserved.“

“Always fresh and filling!“

“Bacari Glendale: It is a beautiful place we have always wanted to go to. We took two friends for a belated birthday dinner (and as the staff realized it was just that, they even rewarded us with a delicious birthday dessert :-). Great service, nice ambiance, and delicious food - we had the bread (could have been a bit more for the $4,50), then shared the Mac & Cheese topped up with the pear and brie pizza that was the best.“

“Delicious dishes! Everything is recommended! But if you twist my arm, I'd say try the beef or chicken shawarma sandwich.“

“It was absolutely amazing The staff was very friendly the hookah was delicious definitely recommend“

“The chicken is so good and juicy. Its fresh and full of flavor.“

“Beautiful place“

“What you don't know is the menu can be a bit redundant. Besides the sandwiches, everything is a variation of itself. I fount the Boureg to be some of the best I've ever had. This is definitely a lunch spot, the bites are pretty small. I like this casual, large glass windowed eatery.“

“We were looking for a place to make time and grab a quick bite but ended up just enjoying the relaxed atmosphere and stayed longer than expected. Super friendly service and awesome food. Highly recommend popping in. Definitely coming back next time we're in LA. Thank you so much 🙏“

“Great service and delicious food. The bass was so fresh tasting. Would definitely come again!!“
