13 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Louisville

“protect this place!! was craving Mediterranean flavors and the bowl I built completely hit the spot, along with the warm pita. happy dance for all of the tasty ingredients. only ate half of my bowl so it was a great light lunch the next day. the lemonade is very sweet but delightful.“

“What a phenomenal and unique experience we had at the Aspen Lodge! The atmosphere, music, service, and food all exceeded expectations. If you love Christmas, you have got to check this place out. Likewise, if metal music makes you smile, I'm sure you will get along great with the friendly and welcoming owner whom we had the pleasure of visiting with. He is also the chef, and we were delighted by the perfectly charred steak and melty cheese he served up in our philly cheesesteaks. There are a variety of more European foods in the menu a well. Our Gyro plate and appetizer were incredibly flavorful! Everything was served hot and delicious. The full bar offered more options than we were able to try, but the one Cocktail we ordered was just right.Bravo! A perfect experience.“

“Authentic Arabic Food! Let's get it right...hummus is arabic. Grabbed 2 sandwiches to go for dinner: gyro and falafel. The sandwiches come with cucumber, tomato, feta, hummus on the falafel, tziziki on the gyro, raw red onions. They are hefty, deliscious and filling. Definitely hit the spot. The deli market has a lot of products from Turkey: Fava beans, couscous, jams, dates, sweets, etc. There are housemade desserts like baklava, kataifa. There's an abundance of dates - all from non-occupier lands (I checked). I wish I lived closer - I'd be a regular!“

“So glad this place doesn't close early like many other places! First time here and definitely won't be the last! The food and service is superb! Overall, I'm extremely impressed! The restaurant is very clean, and even the bathroom is clean and fancy! Nice high quality, clean, and fancy dishes,cups, and silverware ? The waitress even offered some complimentary Turkish coffee, which was very nice! The Gyro Meat and Kafta kabob was exquisitely seasoned and cooked to perfection. Generous portion sizes. The hummus and falafel is excellent as well. A+++ can't wait to come back.“

“It was only ok this time. I arrived about 4:10pm and the guy at the register wasn't very friendly. I wanted to swap the Rice for French fries and pay the difference, but he said that wasn't possible. They only spoke Spanish in the kitchen and he couldn't explain that to them. Later tho he did communicate with the kitchen staff in Spanish!?At 4:15 he started to close up the Restaurant. I guess, they are only open to 4:30pm. So not really open for dinner.The Gyros meat was not like any Gyros I know from Greece or any European Middle Eastern places :-(I had the Gyros wrap here before and it was pretty good, but by the afternoon the "meat pieces" they put in my dinner were all dried out :-( Everything else tho was pretty tasty. Just disappointed I never see them grill the meat here as it is usually done originally. I will be back, but probably only for lunch when everything is still more fresh.“

“I haven't been to Cava for a while so it took me a while to order two takeout bowls. The staff was very patient with me. They were friendly and suggested certain items that I forgot about. It was very pleasant. The food was great as well. Very fresh and tasty! I will definitely try to visit more often now.Vegetarian options: They have a plenty of vegetarian options - variety of vegetables, grains and toppings.“

“Absolutely blown away by this hole in the wall gem. The food was super delicious with plenty of flavor and freshness. Very homemade like. This is a local cafe/restaurant with very authentic dishes made with love. The owners are super sweet and kind.I ordered the mid east sample dish: baba ghanous, hummus, fresh in house made pita bread, grape leaves, tabbouleh, and chicken shawarma. The hummus' freshness with the pita bread blew me away!If you like chai, you MUST try the chai here. It's fresh grind. The best chai I've ever had, no exaggerating.The apple juice was freshly made.The omelet is super tasty if you love spinach. Lots of spinach.Finally, their baklava that was made fresh this very morning was delicious. Reminded me of the homemade baklava back home.I have added this place to my favorites.Posting this is 'Denver Foodies' on Facebook as well.“

“Ate in at this location for first time the other day. Much smaller and less fancy then the Golden location. But the food was just as good. They served our salad portion and pitas bread first, then the rest came out shortly after. Other location served it all at once. Falafel has just the right amount of crispiness on the outside and soft on the inside. Cant go wrong with hummus. Pitas nice and soft. Menu has a vegan pizza option we didnt try it. Overall, fast service and good filling food.“

“I moved to Federal Heights a year ago. I made it a priority to check out my new food scene around here. I am now convinced without a doubt in love with this restaurant! Cleo’s not only makes there food fresh every day but their baclava’s are to die for! I have a usual now and it is the chicken shawarma sandwich! If you love flavor you’ll love this sandwich. You can buy the sandwich and a drink for about 10 dollars. Now I have tried almost everything on the menu but I still come back this sandwich! I would say I eat there about once a week. Oh and you absolutely cannot leave without at least one piece of baclava. They have a variety and it is fabulous! You can go a more traditional route and get the pistachio and not be disappointed but their toffee and walnut are my favorites! Do yourself a favor and check this wonderful restaurant out. You will not be disappointed!“

“It felt like their whole family went out of their way to make our whole family feel welcomed, at home, and educated during our first visit there. What a great experience. SUMAC discovery for the win! AND it's so fun to watch them bake the breads right there.“

“We are always blown away by their delicious gyros! Not only are the gyros amazing, but the pizza was also fantastic. I couldn't get enough of their Labneh Bread - it was absolutely yum!For anyone craving mouthwatering Mediterranean cuisine with friendly service, check them out.“

“I ordered my food online Sep. 25th. About $72 worth food. When I ordered it they sent email and it will take about 10 min. After 10min (7:37pm) they call me and say they are out of rice and feta fries and they asked me if I wanted a refund or substitute regular fries so I asked for a refund. They said it will take about 3 to 4 business days. We called several times to fix it after waiting a week to see it refund and the manager never called me back. I requested a charge back with my credit card and they claimed the order was fulfilled.. Very bad experience with management not taking care of refunded orders due to their running out of items.“

“5/5! I lived in Seattle where we didn’t have a CAVA. I have wanted to try this place for years and after being in CO for three weeks I found one in Boulder. The girl who helped me, my daughter, and her friend was fantastic. She let us try the sweet potatoes and made awesome suggestions. Super kind and helpful! The food was fresh and was so so tasty! I feel like for the price you get a lot of food as well. I was eating it for two days! I got a bowl with grains, chicken, and a ton of toppings, dips, and sauces. My drink was half black tea and half peach tea - I highly recommend that!“
