About JDO MEDITERRANEAN

JDO MEDITERRANEAN is a small restaurant located in uptown Whittier, attached to a shared building space with several other eateries. The atmosphere is casual, with booths that may have some wear and tear, and the restroom lacks a changing table for families with young children.

The food at JDO MEDITERRANEAN is a mix of hits and misses. The meat options, including the Kafta, chicken, beef, and lamb skewers, are praised for their delicious and flavorful taste. The shawarmas are perfection, and the garlic sauce is great on everything. The falafel is tasty and very fulfilling, while the hummus and rice dishes are reported to lack flavor. Portions are generous, and pricing is reasonable.

Under new ownership, Siraj is pleasant, hardworking, and dedicated to good quality food. The staff is warm and welcoming, with extra kind service that leaves customers impressed. While the atmosphere and some aspects of the food may not be perfect, the restaurant's friendly staff and commitment to making things right with customers help balance out the experience.
