Happy Mediterranean Restaurant

The food here is astoundingly good. Fresh, incredible flavors, cooked to perfection. I had flavors I didn’t know existed. It was amazing. It wasn’t bargain basement cheap, but the portions were generous and the quality was unparalleled. I still haven’t gotten over it. I’m not sure I will. Please support them and get some of the best food you’ve had in a while.

Living in a small town, one gets limited to a variety of ethnic foods, such a pity. When Happy Mediterranean Food opened up, especially directly in walking distance from my place of employment, I was charmed with the first bite. The gyro I ordered Today offered freshness and I savored every bite. Took about 15 minutes and I was again, immediately transported to a different time and place. Thank you for providing such deliciousness to Lompoc and I can’t wait to venture your establishment again.

If it was possible to leave more stars I would!! No matter where I am on the central coast I make the detour to stop here. This place is insane. Best Mediterranean I’ve ever had. Do not be deterred by the gas station. You’re in for a meal that will knock your socks off, amazing service, and an eclectic character filled vibe. I don’t know how they make their food better than everywhere else but I hope they keep doing it. Happy about this Mediterranean indeed!!!

Great local place. Ordered the Fish Branzino plate, which was excellent. Various Med. Options are available, Italian, Greek, Middle Eastern.

What a great surprise this was! I had noticed it when driving by, and decided to give it a try. I will be going back! The food was really tasty, everyone was very friendly, and it was cool to be able to see the kitchen in action. I can't wait to try out more of the menu.

NOT WORTH WAITING 1 HOUR FOR AN 8 IN TAKE OUT TIN OF ALREADY COOKED/PREPARED FOOD. PRICES FOR A GYRO HAVE NEARLY TRIPLED!

I don’t write reviews but I have to write this one.
Waiting time was to be 20 minutes. We waited around 30 minutes which would be understandable but please keep in mind we were the only people there and order was one gyro and a chicken salad.
Unfortunately it was to go so I did not check the food.
For 16 dollars gyro I was expecting something else.. meat was cold, tasteless (as there was nothing in it) completely disgusting. Same goes for the pickled vegetables which looked rotten.
I don’t know how this establishment can have 4.1 star but I DON’T recommend this place!
If you can rather go buy chips in the gas station next door.

Once and never again.

The place has these nice big windows where you can see the whole kitchen. We sat and watched our food prepared while we waited because there was nothing else to do. We both have experience in kitchens, working both front of house and kitchen, so we are familiar with food safety.

There was a single employee working the kitchen and as I watched her, she stopped assembling salads, went over, handled raw meat, and without changing gloves or washing hands, went back to assembling salads.

I walked over and told the manager what I saw. She took it very seriously. She made the girl throw out the salads, wash, and re-glove before making our food fresh. The girl was real mad but she did it.

It was delicious, the food was 4.5 stars, but sadly I will never eat there again. If I feel I have to watch the food being prepared to make sure they are following the most basic of food safety guidelines, I would prefer to make my own food at home.

This is an awesome restaurant, American and Mediterranean cuisine, freshly prepared and served. The service and atmosphere are friendly, gracious, a truly family experience. Food is perfectly seasoned and cooked.
Personally, I look forward eagerly to the next opportunity to eat here again.

Ordered the Shawarma pizza. It was one of the best pizzas I have had in a long time. We also ordered the Giro’s. They were also very good. Please be aware that it does take time to have real food prepared. This Is real food prepared fresh. Thiswas no fast food experience. If time is important, you might want to call ahead. I will definitely be coming back.
