Share your opinion about Saffron Mediterranean Grill
Best meditarranean restaurant in downtown Long Beach for sure ,this place is new and already getting popular in the area
Goodness I am just having a bite of each piece of my order of the chicken kebab made me pause to write about how good it is. Everyone in the comments was right, I thought they sounded a little dramatic but they’re being dead serious. I don’t even usually feel passionately about chicken but the way they have those tiny little almond slices and not too many just the perfect amount is going to make me keep thinking of this place. The other ingredients are really fresh...read full review

Saffron Mediterranean Grill is a top-notch spot for authentic and fresh Mediterranean cuisine. The owners are amazing, and the customer service is excellent. The menu offers great options, including halal dishes like the beef Kafta kabob and well-loved falafels. Saffron Mediterranean is primarily intended as a take-out restaurant, with one table inside and a few tables outside. To-go food is packed in high-quality reusable containers, while dine-in is served on heavyweight disposable platters. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, often allowing customers to sample different kinds of hummus before making a choice.
A standout dish is the double skewer meal, which includes options like lamb and chicken, and it is modestly priced. Meals come with rice and additional sides, such as dolma and tabbouleh. Many customers have praised the garlic yogurt sauce and the flavorful focaccia that accompanies meals. The chef-owner, Kaya, is known for his special blend of more than 20 herbs and spices, which enhances the kabob flavors.
Saffron Mediterranean Grill has gained a near 5-star rating for its incredible food and great service. It is a recommended stop for anyone visiting Downtown Long Beach, especially for those looking for Mediterranean and halal food. The restaurant also offers vegetarian options, including skewers and various hummus blends. With convenient parking nearby and a welcoming atmosphere, Saffron Mediterranean Grill is a fantastic choice for a satisfying meal. Despite being tucked away in an alley, it provides a clean and friendly environment, making it well worth the visit.
