12 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Glastonbury

“This is a great place. Halal Mediterranean food, pizza and burgers if that’s your jam, cafeteria style ordering. The food is absolutely amazing. My gyro was almost too large, but the lamb/kebab meat was tender and tasty, the flatbread soft and chewy, the tzatziki creamy and flavorful. The tapas platter had a great selection of amazing food, the creamiest hummus I’ve ever had with exactly the right amount of garlic. I also tested the pesto chicken my wife got, with the tenderest chicken, so tasty, the rice perfectly cooked and seasoned just right. Herbs tasted like they were picked that day, and I’m pretty sure the flatbread was baked to order.

The baklava we got for dessert was pistachio style and still warm and tasty tasty tasty. Absolutely amazing.

Highly recommended; we will be returning often even though we live on the other side of Hartford“

“I'm so glad my boyfriend made me go here. I thought it would be just like any walk in restaurant with mediocre food but I was so wrong! I’m an extremely picky eater and absolutely loved everything we got. This is also the first place I’ve been in a long time that actually had good salmon. They’re homemade dressing and marinate is so unique we went back in to buy a bottle after trying it with the complimentary salad we were given. 10/10 would go again!“

“Four of us came here for the first time. The place looks like a typical Pizza restaurant. We got seated immediately and were given menus. The selections are great and the wine list also was extensive enough and prices were reasonable. We ordered a bottle of Stone Cellars Cabernet and it was wonderful. My family ordered a large pizza with white sauce and a small veggie pizza. I ordered the puttanesca and it was perhaps the best I have ever had. I shared it with the others and they also agreed it was absolutely delicious. I would definitely get it again. It was not busy at all and we were the only two tables there. It was very warm which was our only complaint.“

“Pizza and wings were delicious!“

“Just went tonight and grabbed 2 chicken platters to go with my fiancé. The employees were wonderful. Beyond kind and personable. The food I don’t have words for. I didn’t take a photo due to being over excited but the portions are more than fair for what you pay. The hot sauce is VERY hot for me personally but I like it. The salata that comes with the entree is so fresh and tasty. The chicken is perfectly cooked - tender and seasoned deliciously. Even the rice is a masterpiece. We also highly recommend the pakora chips! They’re crispy on the outside, nice and soft on the outside, seasoned, and made fresh to order. We were even told by the staff that we were welcome to sit and make ourselves comfortable while we waited for the chips since they are made to order but our food was done so fast we barely had a chance to! We’re not done eating but we’ve already agreed this will be our Saturday night go to. For 2 people getting 2 platters and a side of pakora chips it was just $30. You’d spend more per person getting dinner from any other restaurant around.“

“Parsley in Middletown is a go-to for fresh, flavorful Mediterranean food. From crispy falafel and juicy shawarma to vibrant salads and homemade sauces, every bite is satisfying and made with care. The Family Mixed Grill is a highlight—perfect for sharing, it comes piled with tender shish kebab, chicken and lamb kebabs, and perfectly grilled lamb chops. Generous portions and bold seasoning make it a must-try. Don’t skip dessert—the homemade kunafa is warm, gooey, and deliciously crisp. Pair it with their baklava or ma’amoul cookies for a sweet finish. For a more relaxed experience, head to the cozy second-floor dining room—great for enjoying your meal in a quieter setting. Friendly service and consistently great food make Parsley a true gem on Main Street.“

“They consistently give us great food! One of the local go-tos!“

“My absolute favorite deli in Wallingford!! The only problem I ever have is deciding what delicious thing I want to order! The salads are huge the sandwiches are always fresh and the baked goods are out of this world.“

“You can't easily eat out for less than $20 unless you're getting franchise fast food. This is the main exception I've found so far. You can get a plate of tasty Mediterranean chicken, rice, vegetables, and sauce for 10 dollars flat. It's pretty good quality too. Just make sure to bring cash, because they don't take card. That's llikely how they keep the price so low.“

“Amazing nice place and food delicious 🤤“

“I always come to this restaurant, the food is so good, the drinks are always spot on, not too strong and not too sweet just how I like it. The servers/bartender are very friendly. They have some nice decorations put up if you want to take some pictures and the atmosphere is nice. The dinning room is a perfect place to chat and feel at peace with the music. The bar is great to come have some quick drinks a couple of tapas, listen to music and leave happy, the patio is a nice place to enjoy the view and weather. Prices match the quality of the food. The point is this is one of my favorite places to come to with my family, wife, friends. they do such a good job with everything they do! I want them to get more recognition because they definitely have so much potential!“

“I highly recommend Aladdin Halal! Not only did the chef's go out of their way to make sure my vegan needs were taken care of....they didn't make me feel like I was an inconvenience! The food has been OUTSTANDING! Great team, fantastic atmosphere and every time I come to Connecticut I will eat here! Thank you!😀“
