44 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Lomita

“First time here, we had lunch and we both had the grilled lamb chops plate. Service was very good and friendly. The food came quick and it was fresh and very delicious. Lamb is tasty. Mango Lasi is so good. We will definitely come back!. Area is clean.“

“You will not find better service than when you enter Borjstar. Honestly, they treat you like a star. They are attentive and incredibly kind, friendly, and accommodating. The food is just as great. Very flavorful and leaves you wanting more! They also have a yogurt/ice cream dispenser so you can treat yourself before/after your meal. Put Borjstar on your list of restaurants to visit in the Gardena/South Bay area. You won't regret it!“

“Hidden gem. Stopped by a bit early on a Friday night with my wife and kiddo and we had a fantastic experience. Cocktails were tasty, food was delicious, service was excellent, and the vibe was super friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend the roasted cauliflower, tuna bruschetta, farmer's cheese, the duck special if they have it, and any one of their fantastic (healthy pours) wines on tap. Can't wait to come back!“

“1st time here with my fiance, can I say excellent food and excellent service. Great shareable portions!!!Meat, chicken, and lamb were super tender and flavorful.Lebanese red blend wine, and Almaza beer were both on point.Ask for Kristal she is very friendly and helpful, we are definitely coming back.“

“We came here Easter Sunday because everything else was closed. We didn't expect much but the food was delicious and the woman at the register absolutely makes this place a gem. She was so kind and friendly, and when we decided to eat in, she basically was our waitress too. She was lovely! We'll definitely be back!“

“We stopped by on a Friday night and we're lucky that, due to the rain, it wasn't too busy and we were seated immediately. We were just outside the front door but the space heater was just enough to make us comfortable throughout our meal. My husband has a nut and sesame allergy so we were a bit limited in regards to the Appetizers but we ordered the Spinach Dip made with homemade organic yogurt, spinach and shallots and it came with some Lavash bread and some cucumber and carrots. It was very refreshing and a perfect start of the meal.Their was four of us. Two of us ordered the Koubedeh Kabob plates, one got the Lamb Kabob and one got the Ahi Tuna Sandwich. All of the entrees were very tasty and a perfect serving size. The only complaint is that the brocoli, which was one of a few diffrent veggie sides, were a bit undercooked but otherwise the rest of the veggies were fabulous and the rice (which we found out was unlimited) was perfectly cooked.It was a very nice meal and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Overall 10 out of 10 would recommend.Dietary restrictions: My husband is allergic to tree nuts and sesame and they were very helpful and knowledge in the menu and could easily note what he could and couldn't order. While there were limits to what he could order for appetizers the rest of the menu had a lot of options for him.“

“ordered from the walk up window after scoping out the menu online. Their online ordering wasn't working. I ordered the Gyro Burrito because it looked so good in the picture. It took about 20 minutes for take out but everything is made fresh. It was one of the few times that l've ever gotten food that looked as good or better than the picture. The burrito is HUGE! I tried a bite & it tasted even better than it looked! Out of habit, I always get extra sauce in the side & their King sauce is like a Tahini type sauce only more complex & tastier. It really enhanced the flavors of everything, especially the gyro meat. Before I knew it, I had devoured the burrito & an entire cup of the King sauce. I'm definitely going back VERY soon & often!“

“Hummus has different variety. I chose garlic which I think could be better as it was rather dry. Otherwise, the shrimp kabob was really delicious. Fresh and succulent! The lady serving us was really kind and helpful. More lighting could help with the ambience.“

“Absolutely exceptional food. They always exceed the expectations of any guests I invite and they did so this time.I ordered the salmon kebab today. I was worried it would be dry but it was nice and moist. Great herbs the salmon. Excellent hummus and their garlic sauce is always amazing. Most places do vegetables as an after thought but they are a great main feature here.Vegetarian options: I ordered salmon kabob but it came with a vegetable kabob. Unlike most places where vegetables are an afterthought here they are a main feature. I wasn't specifically looking for vegetarian options I'm sure they have something great for vegetarians.“

“This is my favorite place in the south bay, its mandatory after a beach day, I would take a photo but i always ravage the food from beach or gym hunger before I can…. This place is just unbeatable in the category's it serves. I see it as the best in Mediterranean, portion size, flavor, quality and all out healthy for you, I eat here year round but i start eating alot more in the months leading to summer. got to get my summer body ready!!Vegetarian options: a lot of options for vegetarians its labeled with a green leaf if i remember correct. im not even a vegetarian and i always order their maison special salad, im sure you can just get any salad with no chicken as well.“

“What an incredible dining experience! Our server Chase was outstanding - friendly, attentive without being intrusive, knowledgeable about the food, and provided excellent suggestions. The hummus and pita bread were delicious, the "Yalanji" grape leaves appetizers were zesty and flavorful. We split the mixed mashawi skewers (chicken and kafta) as our main dish - delicious! And the mint lemonade was a perfect complement to our meal. I highly recommend Ammatoli, but make your reservation in advance!!! I made ours two weeks before our chosen date and there were limited times available. The restaurant is very popular - with good reason! - and a local friend told be we were lucky to get a reservation!“

“While the location is not the absolute best, the food and service makes up for any faults. I used to go there all the time when I was younger, and recently decided to try it again a few times. It did not disappoint. I had a chicken kabob with came with an immense amount of sides to go along including white rice, pita and hummus, along with a few vegetables, and garlic sauce. Everything is perfectly seasoned and nothing is bland. This will definitely become a future regular place.“

“such a delicious and amazing experience for our first time here in the Kebab Shop. to start with, the interior is on point, very clean and laid back vibes. the service is also wonderful, the kind young woman in the front was very sweet. food is absolutely WOW!! so much flavor, the sauces and meats are just so delicious. i would recommend this place any day <3Vegetarian options: falafel is available!“

“Excellent service & very friendly staff - Anthony with a big smile! Food some of the best I’ve had. Paola the chef did everything perfect. Really nice is you get your choice of protein and 2 great sides; any salad, tabbouleh, basmati rice. I’ll definitely be back.“

“I’m giving this space for my review to my six-year-old daughter, who provided these remarks verbatim: “I know I’m six but I just had to write a review. My parents said reviews are a thing. I wrote this review because the pancakes…the pancakes are delicious at (falsetto singing voice) Caaaaaalf and Chiiiick! How many stars? Listen up here: I’m giving it 100,000 stars out of 100,000 stars. And another thing, by the way. I liked the high chairs. They aren’t like baby high chairs. But high tables and high chairs. They are cool. You should go there because the food is…- I’m gonna say it is delicious and everyone was nice.”“

“I tried chicken maison recently and now I can't get enough. I love their potato salad, rice and garlic sauce is amazing!!!! The service is incredible, friendly employees, clean environment. Quick service, they have exceed it my expectations..“

“The food is amazingly delicious!! Wow. So glad that this place opened. A MUST try!!! The owner Ben is super nice! He seems to really care about his customers and the quality of his food. I've visited numerous times and my favorite food is the Chicken wrap. The place is small but very clean looking.“

“Special thanks to Geovanny for always going above and beyond the regular requirements of customer service. He is always super friendly, helpful and brings a positive energy to the place. The food is always cooked to perfection while the taste of flavor never lacks. I this location provides amazing service, atmosphere and food. Thank you Luna grill<3“

“MUST try FALAFEL sandwich. Perfect with thin pita, scrumptious fresh veggies & sauce. Now my favorite in SoCal. Sorry, intended to get picture but sooo good forgot..lolAzzie is amazing & explains how all is cooked fresh. Went back and bought tge lentil soup!“

“Got off the airport shuttle and went to this Middle Eastern restaurant in Inglewood close to the airport. It only has a couple tables inside so it's for carryout mostly it seems. Al Hamra has most of the classic favorites. Lots of the good stuff like falafel, hummus, tabbouli, and more. The platters are big and are a lot of food for an okay price. A pretty small place but they have a lot on the menu, and it's better than it looks to be honest. It's not pretty from the outside but it's clean inside. There's the counter to order at, and there's just a few tables. Most people call in orders and get it to go. We were already there so we ate there. It's about $14 for the platters. These are big and come with lots of stuff. I got the Falafel Plate. This comes with hummus, rice, and salad. Good falafel. These were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Ones like these are best. Then I used the pitas to make sandwiches out of these. Convenient place after getting off the shuttle a few blocks from here. It's pretty quick and simple. There's great choices like the falafel for vegans and vegetarians.“

“This place was a random pick after seeing their cute patio in the back. I had the lentil soup with the Greek salad and it was delicious. I also added a lamb skewer that was tender and juicy. Service was fast and the house wine was great too. This is a great spot for solo travelers as they also have a comfortable bar.“

“This is what it’s all about. Nile, the owner, is there on the daily and has been for 23 years with his staff pumping out good vibes and delicious authentic food. I love to see a locally owned and operated place killing it the way they do.“Best falafel in the country” with spices sourced directly from Jordan.“

“We have ordered here multiple times and are always satisfied with how the food is, but the service is top notch.We have spoken with multiple people who are so kind, but Raja was one of the people that helped us as well. Due to my long commute he always helps time my food order to my arrival.It helps me make sure i can have a healthy meal, and a tasty one when i get home. I cant appreciate this place more.Parking: If you cant park here, you dont own a car“

“The quality of the food here is next level. The explosion of flavors in your mouth are mind blowing. The chef of this restaurant really knows what he's doing. You can taste that the love and passion that goes into making this delicious food.“

“This was our first time here. The service was fantastic. We got here for happy hour. The cost of the drinks was a selling point. Got the coconut shrimp for a starter. Very good. I had the chimichurri steak and fries. The chimichurri was a bit spicy but very good. My husband had the lomo saltado made with filet mignon. Both dishes were excellent. The restaurant was comfortable but maybe a little loud. Okay for me but my husband has me repeat myself. I'm used to that. We will be back. Definitely hit the spot.“

“Dined here this evening. We enjoyed some Cocktails to start then ordered Beef Tartare, Shrimp with Veg and Roasted Carrots. Entrees varied from Pasta to Ribeye steak and Burger. All delicious. The Carbonara needed more bacon but that was the only issue. Desserts were great. The Espresso wasn’t hot enough for my guest but overall we enjoyed the evening celebrating a birthday. Will recommend to my friends for sure. Would recommend a reservation as it was very busy by the time we left at 6.30 pm“

“After I quit using SeaSide Palace on Sepulveda Blvd in Torrance, I discovered Fiesta Grill on Carson St. In Torrance. Their foods are fresh and authentic and are reasonably priced.I spoke with Frank the owner of Fiesta Grill and I congratulated him for his excellent customer's service.I am sure you will have the same experience as I did.A good Samaritan Mike Harsini.“

“I had the food catered from here and we will definitely be back again. The manager was very friendly and so helpful with my order and sticking to our given budget. She was explaining everything in detail and was able to help me stay within our budget. I specifically requested the meat to be cooked a bit rare since it would be reheated the next day and they did just that. The food was amazing!! The chicken was so juicy not an ounce dry. The steak was super tender and packed with flavor. The garlic sauce is velvety and rich. Wish the greek salad was chopped but it was still good.“

“Decided to come this way for my new coworkers. Most of them had never had chicken Maison. Everyone. And I do mean everyone loved it! It's a drive away from Downey but well worth it! They had EVERYTHING ready for pick up. Service with a smile and always got some good music pumping! Surroundings were cool! I'll be back again...“

“I ordered online, so the service was on time when I went to pick up my food. Surprisingly, it wasn't busy today around 11:20 am. The store looked clean and the staff was friendly. What I ordered: Gygo plate - 10/10. It comes with rice, salad, hummus, and pita bread. I don't think you can change the sides. Spicy lemon garlic whole chicken - 8/10. I should have paid extra for all dark meat because the white meat was so DRY. The sauce is my favorite. Sides: Orginal hummus - 10/10, so good. Spicy hummus - 8/10, a bit sour. Pita bread - 10/10, so soft! Side salad - 7/10, nothing special Regular potato salad - 1/10. I was SO DISAPPOINTED! I even a large side of this order. It was so so SOUR, too sour! I love lemon flavor, but this was overwhelming sour. Is this how it's supposed to taste??? Is the spicy garlic potato Salas sour as well? It went straight to the trash. I feel so bad. Garlic sauce 10/10. I paid extra for these and it's the best thing ever! Falafel- 5/10. I've had better elsewhere. The flavor was lacking and it seemed salty.“

“Oh my, I think I have a new addiction. The green Olive. This little grill, so delicious. Parking is a problem, unless you park in front of another business unit. Greek Grilled and charbroiled Kabobs Chicken,Fillet Migon are my favorite. The portions are squeezed into small styrofoam containers. Not good for the environment! But the food is delicious. Prices are the maximum I pay for street eats. The service? They have a hard working good group, so tip them. No pictures here, because I'm hungry. Only caution, They take on line orders, hopefully you don't get behind a slew of them,or your order may take a little longer, but you can bet it will be worth the wait.“

“The place is nice and clean. The workers are very nice!!! The 2 guys that were there today deserve 5 stars! Helped me order and were very welcoming when I said that it was my first time there. Would definitely come back again!! The food was very delicious too!! I had the peta pocket with the chicken kabob with my sides and it was THE BOMB. Couldn't even finish it all in my own. I had to save the rest for a snack later. Idk why I haven't tried this place before.“

“Ok so the flavor of the food here is so good!! Today I ordered the tri tip shawarma and my only complaint is that it wasn't bigger it was a very flavorful and refreshing wrap so many flavors going on here and it was just so great. The fries also had a great crunch even after I drove back to work and they got a bit cold, I can say they were still pretty dang good. Also wish I had a bit more fries. When entering I was greeted by the employee or owner I'm not sure and he had the football game on which completely made the time there waiting so much more enjoyable. The vibe Made me feel like I was at home watching the game waiting to eat. We talked a little bit about the game and he had me out in about 5-7 mins I love the quality of the food here!“

“Always hesitant to try salmon somewhere famous for something else (chicken) but this kale salmon salad was amazing. The salmon is so fresh and what generous portion! Might be my new favorite although you can never go wrong with her rotisserie chicken here! My husband always gets it with a baked potato and it's always perfect! I prefer this out of all of them because everyone is so kind and generous here and they always are so friendly!! Great place to eat healthy which is hard to find nowadays!“

“Amazing experience, this is the only way I can describe our visit. I ordered the eggplant and my wife ordered the falafel. Food was as authentic as I remember it from my living and visiting the Middle East. we will definitely visit Yalla again.“

“I generally order Uber eats for my mom and have it delivered, but today, not only had her order delivered, but on the way home, I stopped with my wife and had lunch at the Yellow Vase in Rolling Hills. My wife had the Turkey Club Panini, and I had the California Omelet. My wife had a cappuccino, and I had a black coffee and OJ. The place is quaint and pleasant and the staff is very kind and professional.Recommended.“

“The customer service is exceptional! The cook and guy who helped us at the register were very nice & gave us recommendations. The food itself was some of the most delicious plates I have tried. I got the number 9 & the lamb chops. Salad was fresh! All meats cooked to perfection & juicy. Most places I've tried are very dry but not this place. The spicy potatoes are AMAZING! Not spicy but very tasty Will definitely be going back.“

“QUITE LITERALLY one of the best hidden gems in LA. The chicken skewers are jumbo and the sides are FIRE. The mac and cheese is just as good as the best I've ever had. The brussel sprouts are solid.One of the BEST values out there. And hidden in a super market. Whoda thunk?Vegetarian options: Brussel sprouts. Vegetable medley.“

“Been in Pedro for more than 12 years & never tried this place. My son loved it & I had every intention of eventually trying it out. My daughter came for a visit & chose this place to eat. She ordered the chicken wrap & absolutely loved it! She said it was flavorful & fresh & that the lady who runs it was really sweet & friendly, she even got a hug! I didn't get anything this time, but I will definitely be giving them some business in the near future!“

“love this place, food always makes my body feel amazing afterwards, I'm going to be coming by a lot more to get my summer body ready, keep it up guys!!!Vegetarian options: there is alot, maybe like 15 from what i saw. its the best Mediterranean healthy food aroundKid-friendliness: really friendly staff mostly highscool and college students with good behaviorWheelchair accessibility: everything is wide and accessible from what i saw“

“The lamb kabob plate was delicious and the accompanying sides went really with the main dish. There really isn’t a bad option on the menu and you get so much value for what you pay for! The service was fantastic as well and seems to be well loved by the locals!“

“A solid place for a quick meal. Clean and friendly with small parking lot in rear. We had a few different platters and liked everything. Hummus was fresh and shawarma was delicious. Happy to have another option in RB. Pricing pretty standard these days.“

“Chicken Dijon in Torrance, has really great food, the employees are always friendly, smiles and accommodating. I have been going for several years and will continue to patron this location. I also found them very smart in proving a free drink for a yelp. I think a trend offering this type of promotion would be good business.“

“I love Rutt's Hawaiian Cafe. The staff is so nice...But I come for the foooood! Especially the MEATS! This is the best BBQ, Hawaiian or otherwise, for the BEST prices and the biggest portion. I love them. P.S., they also do great takeout for the same big-portion-for-small-price-PLUS-sauce experience!“
