50 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near La Mirada

“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.“

“Mazaya has incredibly fresh and delicious Mediterranean food. Falafel plate is incredible. Crispy on the outside and moist on the inside, some of the best I’ve had. The chicken is very flavorful and the plates are good size. Everything on the menu is great.“

“It's my first time eating at Nick the Greek, La Mirada and I was pleasantly surprised by the food quality and customer service. I was greeted by George and he was patient enough to explain the menu and recommend the chicken pita and rice plate which was savory and generously served. One thing I look for in an establishment is the cleanliness of their restroom and I can say this location has one of the cleanest restrooms Ive been to. I also recommend the greek yogurt dessert. The girl at the register was also very sweet and greeted kindly. I forgot to ask her name. I went there around 2 pm on a Thursday and it was semi busy and my order took about 10 minutes to be ready. Will come back again when I am in the area.“

“Cava is literally my favorite! This was my first time visiting this location. The restaurant was clean and well-kept, and the food was fresh and delicious!
Jenny was very friendly and professional, and made the whole experience smooth and welcoming. I’ll definitely be back!“

“We decided on Dvine even though it had such a high rating (I don't believe high ratings). The place is spotless, the decoration is beautiful, the staff super helpful and welcoming and the food delicious.
We orderen the chicken kabob, kubeh and fatoush. Everything was served at the right temperature, carefully made and flavorful! The cauliflower, baklava and rice pudding were also delicious“

“My experience at CAVA was spectacular! I came in and it was very clean and comfortable. I then joined the line and asked my server Autumn what she recommends because everything looked great . She then asked my preferences and ended up serving me the best Cava bowl ever with grains + protein + and even greens! I am overall very pleased and will be coming back again!“

One of the best shawarmas I’ve tried. The menu is simple and focused, but has everything you need to enjoy authentic Mediterranean shawarma. Great flavor, great service, and definitely worth coming back for.“

“Absolutely amazing food we had a variety of beef swarma, chicken and beef kabobs with rice, Taziki salad and the TLK plate. All of the meat was perfectly cooked and seasoned amazingly and everything tasted so fresh . Hats off to the chef for amazing dishes that were plated beautifully and served quickly.
Sandra our waitress was so nice and such a delight, so sweet to our 8 and 9 year old sons.she is such a hard worker literally running to make sure everyone’s needs were met. One of the most kindest waitresses we have ever had! We are from Glendora and will definitely be back!! Thank you!!“

“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!!!“

“So delicious 😋 we love the kitchen sink, crazy mix!! Anything we’ve tasted is amazing.“

“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!“

“Un buen servicio y la comida rica“

“Delicious and amazing service!“

“My boyfriend and I had a car issue so we decided to grab lunch randomly from this restaurant and we were not disappointed. it looks like a family business and everyone involved is super lovely and they make amazing food. My boyfriend got a beef wrap and I got a chicken Shawarma wrap. I have never had that quality of chicken Shawarma in my life. The spices and flavors were amazing and overall we had a super nice lunch. Highly recommend stopping by and trying their food. We will definitely be back the next time we are in the area.“

“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.“

“Food was excellent. You can taste the quality of ingredients and I mean everything from the tomatoes to the rice was delicious. The tortilla had a bit of a burnt taste to it. Would love to see them upgrade it to something with a little more rise but the wrap portion was massive! 2 burritos in one. Amazing customer service, they go out of their way to serve customers…they get it. Will be back!“

“This is our go-to place for great Mediterranean style food. Great food, and friendly employees, especially Cailyn and Jonathan! I miss the beef 'kafka' and kale salad, but the seasoned beef/lamb combo and the new salads are great too.
Keep it up.“

“The Best of Mediterranean“

“I usually order online because I like to just grab my food and go. I work near the La Habra location, but I’m almost always disappointed there—they’re pretty stingy with the portions and my bowl is never exactly what I order.

The Brea location is completely different. Every bowl I’ve ordered has been a 10/10 with generous portions, fresh ingredients, and great consistency. I’d much rather stick to the Brea location because I know I’m getting a great meal every time!“

“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.“

“This is actually our favorite restaurant. The food is always perfectly fresh and flavorful, and the owners are incredibly kind and friendly. Their falafel is the best I’ve ever had, and my husband LOVES the steak. The care that the owners put into their meals and service is evident, and it is a delight to be one of their customers. So grateful we stumbled upon this hidden gem.“

“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.“

“My tummy is so full and happy. The staff was so very friendly (cashier). Definitely coming back!“

“good and healthy food and very delicious too.“

“Delicious food! We loved it !“

“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. ❤️“

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

“One12Caffe in Downey is such a cute spot! It has that cozy cafe-diner feel, but it’s also the kind of place where you can bring your laptop, grab a coffee, and enjoy a good meal. The spicy chicken Alfredo was a standout, and their matcha drinks are definitely worth trying. They have a great variety of crepes and desserts, too. The portions were huge, the prices were reasonable, and the staff was super friendly. Whether you’re meeting up with friends, grabbing brunch, or looking for a cozy spot to get some work done, this place is worth checking out. I’d definitely come back to try more of their menu!“

“Best ever kabob&desserts. Quality Service Ambient Best flavor food!!! Try once & never stop😋“

“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 ;)“

“★★★★★

World Famous Grill is a fantastic spot for a delicious and satisfying meal! The food was flavorful, fresh, and cooked just right, with generous portions that left me completely satisfied. The atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming, and the staff were friendly and attentive. Everything made for a great dining experience. Definitely worth visiting—I’d happily come back again!“

“DISCLAIMER***I ate half my food because the smell was amazing to know how delicious it is!

Highly recommend for anyone looking for authentic middle Eastern sharwarma 🙌💕✨ thank you Kimo for sharing your delicious home cooking with us. It is truly an honor 🙏“

“The BEST pita chips and hummus!“

“Love this place, we try to go and have breakfast every Sunday.“

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

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

“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.“

“So good 😊 5 stars definitely recommend“

“We arrived earlier than the food truck and almost missed them, but luckily right as we were looking for dinner alternatives they pulled in! Absolutely delicious, we ordered the 24" chicken shawarma meal with extra pickles. The chicken was super delicious, and the fries really hit the spot. Highly recommend!“

“K Grill Kabob has the best beef and chicken dishes. Their rice is so tasty that you don’t need any butter. I order from here regularly and thoroughly enjoy all I order each time. I have been a fan of Persian cuisine since I was a kid and K Grill Kabob is the best Persian restaurant in all of Southern California. You should try their great dishes. I know you will enjoy it!“

“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.“

“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!“

“My favorite is eggs Benedict and chicken and rice. I've been coming here since 2011 and it still tastes the same. So bomb 🤤“
