47 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Pomona

“The food was like going to a hig-hend restaurant, without the high-end price. If you want real food eat here. I am not one to rate places, but this one I just had to give it 5 stars. Just be patient with the cook it's not fast food and he takes his time to make it special. Authentic mediterranean if I ever had it.“

“I love how tasty their food is. I had the Lafta wrap and a Kafta plate. The way I devoured it all was insane. The flavors were great, the food was fresh, and the restaurant is kept very clean and tidy. The bread in unreal and tastes so good from their oven. I absolutely loved this place and I loo forward to coming back!

Wheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp right by the entrance!“

“This restaurant is absolutely phenomenal. The atmosphere is warm and friendly which is evident from all interactions with every staff member. The food and service are excellent in every sense of the word. The bread and baklava were made fresh! The Turkish Delights were phenomenal. The owner and staff went to great lengths to make us feel comfortable and welcome, explaining the menu items in detail. We are so excited to have come across this gem!!! It is the type of culinary and cultural experience that my husband and I treasure. We will be coming again soon, both with and without friends! We can’t wait to try some of the items on the patio grill. :)“

“I love very antika and I love the atmosphere for you“

“Wonderful place and great food.“

“My family was traveling from Arizona to California and had the incredibly good fortune of finding Damasquino Mediterranean Restaurant. My son's a vegetarian and I'm essentially carnivore. We both were over the moon happy with the meals prepared by the owner. I am not kidding when I say don't walk to this restaurant - RUN. The food is out of this world. It's not a fancy sit down, but it's a comfy homey feeling with chairs and tables outside. The food is authentic in every way. The owner is one of the most kind, gracious hosts you will find. His one concern, and his staff all have the same attitude, is your happiness and satisfaction. Well it's an easy task for him, as the food is the best mediterranean food you will find without traveling to the middle east...and even then....I don't think you could find food as flavorful. Give them a try and you can thank me later. I'm literally checking my business calendar to see when my travels take me back to SoCal so I can go to Damasquino Mediterranean Restaurant again.“

“Came here with my family and it was unbelievably delicious, the owner and son were very nice and generous, they are a family owned business and just opened up, I live near the area and was looking for something delicious and different and they definitely didn’t disappoint, I recommend this place for you and your family it’s located in Glendora California and most definitely stands out with beauty, try it ONCE AND YOUR HOOKED!!!!!!!“

“Delicious food and great service. You have the option of obviously taking out or eating in their patio area. They do have TVs but hoping they show Dodger and Laker games in the future. Our server Rawan was awesome. They also have hookah with various flavors available here.“

“Every time we visit the Chino Hills Store #50, Lorraine has been attentive, friendly, and professional. She always greets us with a big smile, and it helps to put a positive attitude in everyone who walks in. Nick is also a great asset to your company.“

“Great food and great service!!“

“Garden Salad and request to add the grilled salmon.“

“Absolutely amazing experience from start to finish\. The food was excellent, fresh, flavorful, and everything we ordered was on point\. The service was just as impressive — everyone was friendly, attentive, and made us feel very welcome\.

The hookah was great, the atmosphere was perfect, and you can tell they really care about the overall experience, not just the food\. Honestly, there wasn’t one thing I could complain about\. Great food, great service, great hookah, and a great vibe all around\.

Definitely one of those places you leave already thinking about when you’re coming back\. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a place with amazing food, excellent service, and a relaxing atmosphere\. 10/10\.“

“I've been searching for really good stuffed grape leaves since a former co-worker brought some of her home made dolma at work about 8 years ago... I've had some hits (mostly misses), but none compared to the one she made... now this... the search is over. Happy palate!😊 It's my first time here. What can I say? As soon as I entered the place, I can smell good things baking and cooking. The owner showed me trays of fresh baked pastries/pies (spinach, meat & cheese) as he took them out straight from the oven. Everything looked delicious. The service was great. I ordered to go and the owner gave me a sample of the Cheese Burak (Cheese Pie) to eat on the go. I started driving off and as soon as I took my first bite I regretted immediately why I did not order that.Everything we ordered were so flavorful and delicious. They also have the best Hummus. So I will definitely go back to this place. 😊“

“In love with this restaurant 🤤🤤🤤“

“The Best of Mediterranean“

“Love love this place. Very yummy food it’s like home made food. If you didn’t try it you are missing out. My favorite place to eat ❤️❤️❤️❤️“

“Needed a bit to eat after my leg workout. I wanted chicken and rice so came in to try this place out. I was a little confused because it says Aladdin but the sign outside says burgers 🤣 Glad I walked out to look for it. Ordered a chicken kabob. It was about $30 with the extra chicken kabob, but it was a hefty meal. The plate came with rice, grilled veggies, hummus, pita, and a green salad. The chicken was juicy and flavorful. Everything was tasty, even the garlic sauce and taziki sauce. Glad I tried it out.“

“great place, love the fresh vegetables“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. Best Mediterranean food I’ve had in a very long time.“

“So glad to be back here. . .

Got the Gyro wrap with sides: labneh and Ghanoush . . such good Baba Ghanoush here

Also got the Tofu plate w/ rice the spicy labneh and extra Pita bread for snacking. .
(the rice made here has an amazing flavor, light but well done 🍚)

I wish I could be here more. . .
Come try it if they are new to you. .
(Directly on Foothill)“

“Even though Ayman and his team were extremely busy in the kitchen, we never once felt ignored. The rest of the family stepped in and made us feel so welcome and taken care of.

Their son was very kind and polite, and the girls were super sweet and hospitable.I asked for a sample of the stuffed grape leaves because so many places sell the canned ones, but here they actually make them homemade, yummy
They were so delicious that I completely forgot about the plate she handed me and just ate them right away 😂

Kudos to this place and the whole family! I had been away for quite some time and recently came back, and I’m so happy to see that the quality and hospitality have never changed. Highly recommended!“

“Great food , and fair prices. The best Mediterranean food I had in the inland empire. it’s located in the new part of Claremont Village.“

“Fantastic place to start a small business. Professional service, great to work with. Always clean.“

“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!“

“I used to frequent the Claremont location, was pretty excited not to drive all the way To Claremont. First disappointment, this place doesn’t just sell the only meat, either a pita sandwich or a plate, which I need since I made my own sides. Second disappointment after order something I wanted since you don’t sell just the meat, my order was so over cooked and dry, the cooked seems to and extra sauce to make moist again- pretty disappointed. The service was great, just the quality of food was horrible.“

“Good food, good prices the service not to good but food is good“

“Went yesterday with my Daughters and can I say the food was so amazing. It was everything I hoped it to be. We came all the way from L. A and it was worth the drive. We will definitely be back! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥“

“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!“

“Easily best food in Chino Hills, such a good option for mediterranean and so worth the price. Very underrated and fresh meat with little wait time. The garlic sauce is to die for! My favorite is the chicken shawarma plate with two free sides: pickled beet salad and cucumbers yogurt salad.“

“I have been here 4 times already since grand opening on Aug 10th! It's a nice, simple place with great breakfast and lunch foods. Open Monday thru Saturday. Closed Sundays! I like the falafel sandwich, baklava, French croissant, and chicken hummus plate! Coffee they make is good! Stop by and try!!!“

“Lovely healthy food, great hookah options, and wonderful service. I love the atmosphere it’s like a mini vacation.“

“This is the best Mediterranean food around. We love the chicken kabob plate. It’s a must have.“

“As a Greek myself, I have to say good Greek food is HARD to find, and Grape Leaf absolutely delivered! 🇬🇷 Everything we ordered was cooked perfectly, fresh, flavorful, and genuinely delicious. From the salmon and Greek salad to the potatoes, pita, dips, everything was SO good.

I’m visiting from Las Vegas and I’m honestly so happy I stumbled across this spot. It’s always exciting to find Greek food that actually tastes authentic and reminds you of home. ❤️

Seriously, 10/10 I will absolutely be back next time I’m in California! Highly recommend! 🇬🇷✨“

“Great food for a reasonable price. I had chicken Schwarma which was an ample portion and delicious. My wife ordered the beef kabob and had a similar opinion— great taste, ample portion. The staff is friendly and very efficient. Great place if you like Mediterranean food.“

“Good food, great service, fun atmosphere. The inside isn't fancy by any means, but trivia is playing along with 80s music videos that were enjoyable to watch while we waited. Highly recommend the chicken and beef empanadas (in that order). We also got the duet combo with all the fixings which was great. Owner was super friendly and played trivia with us!“

“Came here before the Covina chris parade and was yummy as usual.“

“This has become one of my favorite places to eat in the area lately. Everything I've had on the menu has been very good; I especially like the Zaatar & Cheese. My SO really likes the Keshek and Soujouk. In addition to the excellent food, the ambiance is quite pleasant. The staff is nice, and the prices and wait times are very reasonable. I strongly recommend checking this bakery out, especially if you're a flatbread fan.“
