50 Best Mediterranean Restaurants in Atlanta

“First time in a while where I’ve been to a restaurant and everything I’ve ordered was amazing. Best cheesecake I’ve ever had 😭 and the burrata was soooo good. So surprised I’ve never had this place pop up on Google for me before. The first time it did, I tried it and omg. Definitely coming back.“

“Delicious as always. The celiacs and non celiacs in our family all love this restaurant. The owners and team are so kind and helpful. It is well worth a road trip.“

“Pasha in Atlanta has an incredible atmosphere with vibrant vibes that make the dining experience feel special. The food was flavorful and well-prepared, and the service was attentive and welcoming from start to finish. I truly enjoyed my visit and will definitely be returning soon.“

“Fiance and I went on a busy Friday night and were lucky to grab seats at the bar. We tried to make a reservation 4 days in advance and nothing was available so make sure to plan wayyyyyyy ahead- it's a popular spot! Jennifer Ramos behind the bar was lovely; she's good company and provided great service even tho she was super busy. We enjoyed the hummus app, he had lamb, and I had the sirloin. All delicious and very flavorful with quick service. You can skip dessert tho, it was very whatever. Will return!“

“This is our favorite place to stay in Buckhead. The rooms are spacious, modern, clean and comfortable. The staff is outstanding! Brandon and the staff from valet, the front desk, the restaurant, to the housekeeping staff are all so friendly and accommodating. We unexpectedly needed to extend our stay. Brandon and staff handled this seamlessly for us. We could not have better service and look forward to our next stay.“

“This was one of the best places as a whole that I’ve ever been to! This includes across the entire US, Europe and Central America! I’d recommend everything g, but the soup was to die for! The staff and especially Kameel are amazing as well. A sign inside says “we love you,” and Kameel can be seen telling his customers he loves them as he fist bumps! It’s such a warm and inviting atmosphere! Everyone should make a stop here regularly! I wish I was a local because I’d be a regular! I loved it! 😍 Thank you Aviva for such an enjoyable experience and meal!“

“Brunch here was great--you absolutely must get the tableside French press, which is cheap and comes with treats. Dylan was among the best waiters I've ever had--very knowledgeable about the menu, had great recommendations, and made us feel like friends. He served us excellent tea as well. Would recommend!“

“Agora is truly the place to visit when in Atlanta. As a native Turk, I was overjoyed by the authenticity and flavor of the food. Every dish was beautifully seasoned, from the mercimek köftesi (lentil balls) to the döner tabağı (gyro plate). The meal concluded with a perfect touch of sweetness through the kabak tatlısı (pumpkin dessert à la Turka) and the most exquisite baklava.

What made the experience unforgettable was the service. Michelle was gracious and attentive, while Hakan’s hospitality and warmth were beyond words. We were so delighted by both the food and the atmosphere that we are already planning to return for Saturday breakfast. I wholeheartedly and enthusiastically recommend Agora to everyone.

I returned to Agora for a Turkish-style breakfast on Saturday, and once again, it exceeded every expectation. The moment I stepped in, I felt welcomed as if I were stepping into a dear friend’s home rather than just a restaurant. Hakan, once again, proved what an exceptional host he is. Then I met Sezgin (aka “Sez”) an extraordinary person whose warmth and hospitality elevated the entire morning.

If you’re seeking impeccable service and exquisitely prepared food, go to Agora. I was so enchanted that on my last day in Atlanta, I found myself drawn back there. Sezgin’s suggestions, the Adana Kebap, the Ispanaklı Börek, and the Dolma were nothing short of sensational. Leaving, I didn’t feel like I was saying goodbye to a restaurant, but to friends I’ll miss.

Thank you, Sezgin and Hakan, you made me feel home in the most genuine way. You both are simply the greatest!!“

“My favorite restaurant in this area and some of the kindest people I’ve ever met! I live out of state now but couldn’t miss the opportunity to have their food! Thank you for all the years of amazing food and service! You guys are the best!“

“Pera Bistro is a gem! The hookah was smooth, the food was absolutely delicious, and the drinks were as cute as they were tasty. Shoutout to our server, Cassie, who made the experience even better with her top-notch service. Highly recommend for a great night out!“

“Elektra is located on the 4th floor of the Forth Hotel. Our server was very knowledgeable of the menu. Honest with their likes and dislikes upon trying dishes themselves. The fare offered is Mediterranean style. Overall we had a very enjoyable experience. Thank you Elektra!“

“Great food and services. Love it.“

“Food & service was outstanding; I had the gyro plate and hummus. Music was too loud for dinner time. Consider cranking it up after 9PM :)“

“I absolutely love this place. Tannour has the best beef biryani in Atlanta, hands down. The Chicken 65 is always delicious, and their Mediterranean dishes are just as impressive. Tuhin the guy on the front is the best. Whenever I order by phone, he has everything ready before I arrive. Outstanding service and consistently great food.“

“nice and fast and good customer service“

“My absolute favorite restaurant in the West End of Atlanta!! You can tell that they really care about the food they are serving. The quality of the products are all top notch and flavors are excellent. I should have written this review sooner. It’s such a gem and so glad it’s in our neighborhood. Thanks so much for your beautiful food❤️“

“The food is awesome and the staff are amazing! It’s my favorite spot for lunch!“

“I saw a pic of the Philly Cheesesteak Nicks was serving up and decided I had to check it out. Nicks is a hole in the wall in all the good way…only locals know it, small menu, to go orders…but dam is it good…the Philly Cheesesteak was so good and even the fries were good nothing fancy just good.“

“AMAZING STAFF! AMAZING SERVICE!!! I catered from them for the last day of my 4-day wedding and the experience leading up to the day of was smooth and very accommodating! William was great in working with my budget and the items I wanted as well as the timeframe to have the order ready. The morning of, there was some confusion on our end and we hit panic mode calling the restaurant thinking we were missing a whole tray. Lisa was absolutely a God-sent! She looked everywhere and checked with everyone to make sure the trays all left and even then started preparing another tray just in case. She could've easily said we sent it all and we're busy now. Her confidence and helpful nature saved the day! I would recommend working with this location on all your catering orders - they make it so easy and I don't even have to mention - THE FOOD IS A HIT WITH EVERYONE!!!!!“

“Delicious food and great service! They make you feel very welcome and prepare everything with care.“

“We had CAVA in Edmond, OK for the first time this evening. Soooo good! It was packed! Cas & Edgar were both very kind and worked great under pressure. We will definitely be back soon!“

“This place is in a gas station parking lot with Michelin One level cooking. The service was welcoming and fast, the restaurant was clean and well decorated and the food was unbelievable. They just opened this year but they are started off very well. I will be back probably every week. The grade in my pic says it all.“

“Amazing healthy bowls of Mediterranean flavors!! Love the chicken, the lentils, the hummus and the dill yogurt sauce!!! Nico and Ben and Alec were working hard keeping the line moving!!!“

“Food is excellent. I am definitely going back“

“Super cute deli style gyro spot. I got the baba ganoush with my lamb gyro and it was perfect. The right amount of smokiness and tang. There were a lot of sides to choose from and I am eager to try them all. Oh and the owners were the sweetest people.“

“There’s a Starbucks, a Bank of America, and a boatload of stores to browse and shop, including the anchor Publix supermarket.

Construction in front of Bank of America on the sidewalk temporarily shut down the entrance in front of Starbucks, so be patient and turn at Peachtree Battle Avenue or before the Chevron gas station“

“Had a great lunch at Taziki's at Toco Hills today. Service was pleasant and the food was great: fresh, tasty, & attractively presented.“

“We had the pleasure of being helped today by Nature! Who by the way was excellent. The food and vibe was excellent. Thank you Nature for making our laborious day better at mealtime. We will be back!“

“I ordered our food online and we were so hungry that we ate it when we got there! Everything was very delicious! The staff was very pleasant and the only issue was that they forgot to put the pita that came with my meal in our bag. I didn't get upset though because I am sure that it was an honest mistake!“

“I drive a tractor trailer and ran into cava at perimeter. The service I received from Cliff and Jalisa was very friendly and inviting. I had gotten my order to go but felt so welcome after talking with them I decided to dine in. Next time I’m in town I will be stopping back by. Keep up the good work.“

“The food here is amazing and the chef is very a very hospital host who welcomes you into his space. There’s a good amount of options so there’s a lot to try here, and I’ll definitely be coming back to try more off the menu. The atmosphere is dim lit and cozy, and a good place to catch a break. Please support this business and stop by!“

“Went here with some friends to celebrate my birthday. Very cute, lowkey spot. Friendly attentive staff. Bomb happy hour specials. The dj was jamming from the minute we walked in. The food was so so so good. They didn't hold back on the drinks. We initially planned to pregame here before going to another spot, but we were having such a good time that we ended up staying way longer. It was enjoyable, and I would return for sure.

Kid-friendliness: Not kid friendly“

“@fia_atlanta is more than the restaurant located in Buckhead’s @theburgesshotel; it celebrates Mediterranean cuisine featuring wood-fire grilled specialties. Fia is open daily for breakfast and dinner and has a cozy, intimate atmosphere where you feel like you are among friends, due in part to the stellar customer service. The food is some of the best in Atlanta! My favorite dishes include the Butternut Squash Soup, Jumbo Asparagus, and Pork Belly. I found Mr. B's Burger good but not craveable given the price point.“

“Had the best Tabbouleh Salad ever in my Life of eating Mediterranean food and I am born and raised here in Atlanta! 😍....“

“Food was fresh and delicious! Great atmosphere to dine in as well and they are very welcoming! Will definitely be going back to eat. Especially the Falafel!!“
