Moussaka Mediterranean Kitchen

Nice staff, slow service for just a glass of tea . But nice staff.

I had a birthday celebration luncheon with 23 friends and family. The staff took wonderful care of us and the food was delicious. This is a great neighborhood foodie place and I’m never disappointed.

Vegetarian options: Falafel is yummy and they have really good salad choices the dips, pita and dolmas. I have vegetarian family members that request to eat here.

Kid-friendliness: My nephews are always welcomed here and it’s a family friendly place but also everyone is welcome.

Wheelchair accessibility: The restaurant is on street level, no stairs and a wheelchair could easily maneuver. No booths so wheelchairs fit under the tables.

Cute little place. My expectations were set to high. We went on a Friday night, it was barely busy but there was only one waiter for the whole 15 or so tables, that same waiter was the hostess and busboy. We were seated right away but it took the person almost 20 minutes to take our order and we were never offered water until he took our order. The food was not amazing… not bad but I honestly was disappointed. The place redeemed it self with dessert.

Every dish was tasty and fresh. The moussaka eggplant meat dish was fantastic. Salad was fresh and crunchy with lovely seasoning. Grilled shrimp skew was mouthwatering with the yogurt dip. Our eyes all popped out after tasting the dip. Falafel balls were crispy and light. The mint dumplings were spoonful of yummy tiny things. Staff was so friendly and the chef explained to us how the dumplings were made in every household in Turkey.

A cozy spot good for date night, family or the solo diner. Good views of the intersection. Inside gave me a boho Mediterranean vibe. Love the seats they twist! Now to the food. We had the Santorini burger, Greek fries and prawns skewers with a side salad. Burger was juicy with a nice sear that really brings out the beef flavor. Good quality of beef with just a hint of spice. Nice skinny fires with a soft fluffy middle. Side salad was delicious and what you'd expect in a Mediterranean salad. Greek fires, I'll pass next time. Basically fires popped in broiler with feta cheese ontop. I was underwhelmed. The shrimp was grilled beautiful with a nice flavor. Came with orzo rice, just rice with a few orzo pasta pieces here and there. It wasn't bad but I don't care for my rice to stick together like mushed a little. Good service, waiter was on point working 6-7 tables alone. Food wait times are good. Appetizer didn't come out prior but with entrée. Can't belive they have been there 8 years. Oh desserts section is worth a shot. At first glance you may think Julia Child's era. The Limon marscapone cake was delicious. Some one in my party ordered the Turkish coffee. Definitely will put some hair on your chest. Parking is good and has wheelchair access. Clean restroom. Hope this help you.

We had so much fun trying this place for the first time. Our server was helpful in picking out dishes we would like (try the moussaka with meat sauce, it’s like eggplant lasagna!) and the Turkish coffee was great to top off the meal. The owner was super friendly, glad we got to meet her! Next time we’ll have to try something from their dessert counter!

I visited this restaurant a handful of times in Summer ‘23, and then went back again recently. it has drastically improved in both food quality and in ambiance. very tasty food, a little high on the pricing, but they give you a good amount of food for the price you pay
