50 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Santa Fe Springs

“You know I’m always looking for a good Gyro/Shawarma spot…
This Gyro wrap did not disappoint!!! Very tasty Gyro Meat stuffed in a fresh thin pita…got the spicy potatoes for the side and dipped them in the jalapeño aioli for the perfect bite!
The garlic sauce and tzatziki sauce were spot on also!!
This is more of a To-Go spot than dine in… as I was eating I saw huge boxes of food being picked up every other minute from call in orders…but that didn’t slow the speed of my order down at all.
Great staff, Super flavors, …. Now you say Yesssssss! You won’t be disappointed!!!“

Maritza and staff served us with great customer service even close to closing. A quaint location with a family atmosphere and attentive servers who check on you often, making sure customer satisfaction is met at all aspects. Clean and bright! Will visit again and bring all the family and friends!“

“Probably the best Mediterranean food I have ever had. I tried the chicken kebab—it was delicious. The chicken was flavorful and cooked to perfection. The rice was flavorful. Hummus was amazing. The side salad with the beet dressing added the cherry on top. Will definitely be back!“

“This was my third visit to this location, and today was by far my favorite experience. Ruby was incredibly kind and helpful, and she had one of the most welcoming faces. She really made the visit feel warm and enjoyable. She made it worth 5 stars“

“I had placed a takeout order through the app and it gave me the quickest option to pick up in 15 minutes but I purposefully added extra time and chose to pick up in 30 minutes.

When I arrived 30 minutes later, my order was still not ready because they had run out of falafel. Despite the mishap, Rachael was the one who assisted me and handled the situation professionally with great care and understanding. She took time to discuss the matter and gave me options, but even more than that, she showed kindness and made me feel seen as a customer.

Even in negative situations like this, customer service always goes a long way and it's easy to forgive a mistake when you are met with kindness and respect and when action is taken to rectify the situation. I will be returning :)“

“This is a food truck with several tables available if you want to eat there or you can take the food to go. The food is fresh and delicious. The staff is friendly and helpful. I LOVE this place.“

“I love love love love Luna Grill. Service is excellent thank you Nadja very nice good atmosphere and the food is delicious very fresh and tasty.“

“We ordered this takeout. I must say, even with a 15 minute drive home, the food was delicious. The food was very, very tasty and cooked to perfection. It was a little pricey but worth it.“

“Made a last minute decision stop at this tiny place (after an appointment at Kaiser down the street) and was VERY pleasantly surprised! It was DELICIOUS! The air-fried falafel was UNIQUE and perfectly crunchy on the outside! It's a MUST try and I'll definitely be back.“

“Great food, decent portions and pricing is very fair for the quality of food. They are a must try if you enjoy fresh prepared, and BBQ style plates you can share from. You'll know once you get there and the aromas from the kitchen hit your nose. The creamy hummus was delicious.“

“Absolutely fantastic food!“

“My family and I were looking for a restaurant that serves halal food on our way home. We found this on google maps and had minimal expectations.
Honestly, we were glad we stopped here, We loved it! The gentleman who worked their was super kind and friendly and went above and beyond to make sure we felt comfortable and pleased. So i would give the service 20 out of 10 !
We had kebbeh, lamb chops, and chicken tawook. Kebbeh was served super hot and crispy. Yum.
The other plates were delicious but there is a room for improvement. I would have prefered my tawook to be a little more juicier. But the flavor was their and I would order that again, no doubt.
They also provided us with lentil soup as an extra (probably coz it's ramadan?) And it was a super nice touch. Loved it.
I would come to this place again inshaAllah!
Thank you!“

“Great ambiance and amazing food. I had a lot of food… falafel, spicy hummus, kafta kabob, tzatziki loaded with veggies, cheese balls, and baklava. All so delicious and fresh. I even loved the fresh pita and dipping sauce that was complimentary. From the manager and many servers, everyone was pleasant and friendly throughout my time there. I went during happy hour so the specials were great during that time. I’m definitely returning to this Mediterranean restaurant for sure. I loved it.“

“They have very friendly staff and the food is fantastic.“

“Absolutely amazing experience every time! The customer service is top notch — Noah is always so friendly, helpful, and welcoming. You can tell they really care about their customers. The food is so delicious that I completely forgot to take a picture before digging in… it’s that good! Highly recommend this spot if you’re craving a great kebab and outstanding service.“

“I spotted this place while driving to See’s Candies and decided to give it a try, so glad I did. From the moment we walked in, the customer service was on point. We were greeted right away, and the whole place had a warm, welcoming, homey vibe.

The menu selection is solid. We ordered the beef gyro and the chicken souvlaki plate. The beef gyro was very tasty, the meat was tender, flavorful, and cooked just right. The chicken souvlaki was also delicious, but the real standout for me was the hummus. It’s made in-house, and you can absolutely tell, creamy, warm, and honestly one of the best hummus dishes I’ve had.

It even brought back memories of Papa Cristo back in Mid-City LA, that’s how good it was. If you’re craving quality Mediterranean food, don’t pass this gem up.“

“I ordered the cinnamon oat latte, and I'm usually not a fan of oatmilk but it was balanced so well against the espresso and the cinnamon that it didn't dominate the flavor. It was a very smooth drink, not too sweet, not too bitter, and not too strong.

My wife got the strawberry matcha latte, and while the matcha was of a decent grade and quality, the strawberry isn't a puree, nor is it like a strawberry creme or milk added in, it's an additive in powder form and she doesn't tend to like that.

Their chocolate croissant, which we shared, was heated up as requested, it came with a line of melted chocolate drizzle on top, which I think was similar to Nutella but less thick in terms of consistency. It was also topped with powder sugar, and it had an inserted line of darker chocolate, maybe 65%, so pretty balanced against the sweetness of everything else involved.

The area the cafe is located in is nice, it's a large promenade with several nicer restaurants (it's also sort of attached to it's restaurant counterpart) and there's plenty to walk around and get some shopping done or walk off the drinks and baked sweets. Plenty of parking as well, and the mall itself is only a block or two north from the cafe.“

“We ordered this takeout. I must say, even with a 15 minute drive home, the food was delicious. The food was very, very tasty and cooked to perfection. It was a little pricey but worth it.“

“Kabob plate has it all: chicken, beef, rice, salad, garlic paste and pita. The entire plate was clean after we finished.

The owner is very helpful and eager to help customers when they have questions.

They’ll put the game on for you if you ask. Overall, excellent experience.“

“Most welcoming people with delicious food. Couldn’t go wrong with anything on the menu. We tired this place to beat the crowds at Disney land and honestly had a much better and wholesome experience at this restaurant than anything we could have gotten at DL. Thanks for the food and experience. Would love to come here more often but unfortunately we are visiting from the east coast. Highly recommend!!!“

“The BEST pita chips and hummus!“

“Absolutely loved the food at Kababji Grill — the Beef Kafta, Kibbe Nayye, and Beef Shawarma were all bursting with flavor. The service was top-notch, and the atmosphere made the experience even better. Truly one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in a long time!“

“Walked by and walked in for the first but definitely not the last time. Great food that is filling and reasonably priced. The line to order started growing and an employee who was on her break ran over to open another register. That kind of service is seldom seen and is appreciated. In fact I went to a chain restaurant a couple days ago and I was told I would have to you their kiosk to order so I walked out. Touché to Zankou! Mmm chicken!“

“My tummy is so full and happy. The staff was so very friendly (cashier). Definitely coming back!“

“Best ever kabob&desserts. Quality Service Ambient Best flavor food!!! Try once & never stop😋“

“my favorite marinade and cucumber salad. like Pico de galli but with cucumber🤌“

“The best food in Santa Clarita“

“Nancy at the counter is always fast and efficient. She really knows her menu! They have a variety of plates, salads, wraps, and sides. A few of my fan favorites include the works, which comes with a little bit of everything, kafta, beef, chicken, two falafel balls and two step grape leaves. Chicken wrap is made with pita bread, garlic paste, lettuce, tomatoes, and homemade salad dressing. The sides forBesides for your wraps are pickled turnips and your choice of spicy potatoes or salad. My favorite salad would be the grilled veggie salad with protein optional it has onions, bell peppers, zucchinis, yellow squash, and corn, all grilled and topped with their homemade balsamic dressing and feta cheese. Their stuffed grape leaves and falafel are always a hit as well. I have yet to try their baklava, but that is next on my list they’re located in a food plaza, so there are a bunch of other eating establishments as well and their dining areas and restrooms are always spotless. Most of the establishments have the restroom code and Wi-Fi password posted or if they don’t, you can always ask! The TVs mainly play the news and they have connections if you need to charge your phone or laptop overall, this is one of my favorite places to eat. If you decide to go check this place out at the counter know Roxy sent you!

Vegetarian options: Falafel balls, hummus, grapes leaves, eggplant wrap, fattouche, tabouli, baba ghanoush, grilled vegetable salad, house salad, Cesar salad, Greek salad.“

“Su comida deliciosa, la atención al público excelente. me encanta visitarlo.“

“Excelente servicio y la comida deliciosa …. Pasamos un rato bastante agradable. Gracias 🙏🏻“

“This is by far the freshest food I’ve had in a while. I ordered the gyro bowl, one pork and the other beef lamb with rice and fries. I’m not even kidding this taste so fresh and clean and you can taste the love in the food. I need to go back and try everything!“

“Tried out your Cerritos location, I lived in LA almost 3years and food especially the kebab wrap was the best by far and I have tried different kebab place’s before in LA. One of the best Kebab place in America, the lamb was moist and very tasty with great flavors, the combination of the hummus, salad, fries combined with the lamb was delicious, the fresh flat bread was soft and crispy on the outside. Add the garlic yogurt sauce wow your tastebuds explodes in your mouth, the food was very lite and not heavy like most kebab place so they got the right balance by using the flat bread and not pita bread that most place use on the wrap Well done this place remind me of a place back home in New Zealand. I give The Kebab shop in Cerritos 10/10 Highly Recommend this place to my friends and family and different locations in America. Will go again and try something different on the menu.“

“Great environment, classy entertainment and the food is very delicious with reasonable prices. And, when it comes to their service it’s outstanding“

“The best food, people and everything is amazing 🤩“

“The food is quality service is great. I will come back for sure.“

“Great Lebanese taco joint. Vegetarian options. Generous portions. Very satisfying.“

“My wife and I realized that we had not thought to stop here in quite a while and so we stopped for lunch today and we were immediately reminded why we like the food here so much. I like the chicken kabob wrap and my wife typically gets the chicken bowl. The staff is friendly and helpful and the food is consistently good. We will definitely have to keep the Hummus Factory on our regular list of places to visit for lunch and dinner. A photo of the chicken bowl shows just how appetizing it looks.“

“Love this place, we try to go and have breakfast every Sunday.“

“We arrived earlier than the food truck and almost missed them, but luckily right as we were looking for dinner alternatives they pulled in! Absolutely delicious, we ordered the 24" chicken shawarma meal with extra pickles. The chicken was super delicious, and the fries really hit the spot. Highly recommend!“

“I luv this place! I usually order for pick up. I recommend the Chicken Kabob plate with Basmati rice and a Ceasar salad. Don't forget the pita bread! 😋👍“

“Great experience eating here chicken is delicious“

“Wife got the Falafel plate, I got the 3 Skewer Kabab combination plate“

“I recently tried Kimo’s Shawarma and it was honestly one of the best shawarma spots I’ve been to. The meat was incredibly flavorful, juicy, and perfectly seasoned, and you can tell everything is made fresh. The garlic sauce was rich and creamy without being overpowering, and it paired perfectly with the warm, soft pita.

The portions were generous, especially for the price, and the staff were friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better. The place itself was clean and had a relaxed, casual vibe.

If you’re craving authentic, delicious shawarma with great service and value, this place is definitely worth checking out. I’ll definitely be coming back!“
