The food was so so, and the saganaki cheese fire was way too large.

Owner is the best ! Great guy super nice and jovial easy to talk to He is really doing a great job running this restaurant bringing Mediterranean cuisine to the table . Great ambiance too with a beautiful bar . I really like the overall lay out of the place . Support this business . Great price and the quality is there on top of it . Overall exceptional value .And the food is really good . There is a lot to try there . I go for the lamb shank , calamaris , lamb kebab , steak , platter of appetizers , shrimps skewers , his bread is amazing served with pesto ( owner brings it all the way from Monterey every day ) , fish soup , tiramisu . Good wine too . I just love this place . Thank you for recognizing me each time I come ,making me feel welcome and at home . That what a great restaurant should be about . Sharing and filling you are home ! Brice

Oh my goodness we just went here. It was so good. The staff is amazing and the prices were super reasonable. The happy hour is so delicious and so tasty. I was a little concerned about the downtown area being sketchy, but we parked across the street and it was really nearby. I really appreciated the staff and will definitely return.

It’s our go to Mediterranean restaurant. We always order mezeh platter, chicken souvlaki, and paella. Paella sometimes comes out bit oily, but other two are so on point and delicious every time.

Their food was delicious and the service fantastic. The restaurant is tucked away from crowds of the main street.

Ordered Gyros Plate through Uber. The meat was cold and bland; no rice pilaf as listed on menu - instead a side of mashed potatoes & a couple slices of French bread. Overpriced and underwhelming

Enjoyed the food. We were there at a busy time so it was a little noisy and hectic but the food was good. Plan to go back.

Excellent service. We arrived a bit early but were seated in a booth as requested. I was a bit worried because we were seated near a large group of people. Bread and water were brought to the table shortly after we were seated. Our server came quickly after and took our order and our food arrived with little wait. We had the grilled octopus, that was superb. Watermelon salad and the lamb kabobs. The kabobs were flavorful and juicy. Since we were going to a performance at the Civic Center — just up the street — we didn't have dessert. Would recommend Mozaic highly.

Loved the flavors of the chicken and lamb kebabs — so tasty and well seasoned! The food could’ve been a bit warmer, but the service was great and the atmosphere with Arabic music made it such a lovely experience overall. ✨🍢🎶
Very tasty Mediterranean food! Watermelon 🍉 salad is delicious, we liked humus plate and Salmon main dish.

We had a wonderful experience at Mozaic! We were brought hard crusted bread that could be dipped into an olive oil and basalmic vinegar mix. We decided to forego the appetizer in favor of going straight to an entree. We both had the salmon which was seasoned just right. The salmon came with a choice of mashed potatoes or rice pilaf and we both chose the rice. There was spinach which was seasoned with just the right amount of garlic to give it flavor. I'm usually not a big fan of spinach but this was different. We look forward to coming back!

My go to place in Santa Cruz.Parking garage 15’ away. Prices are very reasonable. Staff is friendly even if you get there early. The food is oh so so good. Cocktails are tragically too tasty (yum) if no designated driver. I wish I could have ordered 20 cocktails!Mahalo Mozaic for Killa Grinds!
