50 Best Mediterranean Restaurants in Atlanta

“amazing food and super friendly hostesses and servers. my family and I enjoyed ourselves and loved every single bite. ❤️“

“Amazing food experience. Fresh!“

“This place is WAY WAY better than The Buttery. If you’re in the neighborhood, the choice is definitely Daily Chew!!!!“

“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.“

“Such an incredible experience. Had the burrata (amazing), and me and my friend split the pasta bologanse (this was incredible i haven't stopped thinking ab it) & bucatini and shrimp (not my favorite, had a very nutty flavor but that's just my personal taste). We also got a creme brulee and after dinner drinks. The creme brulee had a thicker crust than I'm used to but it was still great, but omg that espresso martini may be the best i've ever had. It was so creamy and good. Overall a really amazing experience.“

“The food was fantastic and our server Dillion was so knowledgeable, efficient and kind! He was so patient with us through our many questions, recommended some excellent menu items and cocktails, and even gave us a list of other restaurants to try while we are in town. We will definitely be back again!“

“Amazing food experience. Fresh!“

“Really enjoyed the atmosphere last night. This place was busy but for good reason. Jalen the bartender took great care of us and was very knowledgeable. Her recommendations for drink and food were spot on. We will be coming back for her and the vibes!“

“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!“

“This was our first time at Banu, and we weren't sure what to expect, but we were pleasantly surprised! Our server, Sebastian, was incredibly friendly and helpful, and both the food and ambiance were amazing.

We started with the hummus appetizer, and then shared the chicken shawarma, the falafel plate (which was perfectly moist and delicious), and the shrimp plate. As a side, we ordered the Persian berry rice. Every single dish was fantastic and perfectly seasoned.

While they don't have their liquor license just yet (they've applied), you can go literally right next door to grab a bottle of wine. They charge a small corkage fee, which actually works out to be less expensive than buying wine directly from a restaurant anyway. We can't wait to return!“

“If a portal to the Mediterranean existed, this is where you would find it. The food is authentic, prepared and made with love. It will not disappoint you one bit.

From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with a warm smile, and as we went through the menu, the owner, Hovan, came out and had a conversation with us.

Apart from being a local gem & landmark, you will leave happier, healthier and planning your next visit.

Support a local business, try the rolls, try the shawarma and close it off with a cup of coffee and baklava.“

“Where do I even begin? The pita? Perfect texture and taste. The cherry tomatoes? Obviously fresh, juicy, and sourced from a great farm. The romain? Plentiful and CRISP. The Dill and Taziki sauce? Also VERY fresh, has a citrus kick somewhere, and seems to be made fresh as well. Because it doesn't taste like a store bought sauce filled with preservatives. The hummus? That might actually be where the citrus is from. However, the hummus is not overly salty! You can actually taste the Chickpeas and they use good ingredients as well as olive oil for the hummus too! The chicken? Is in NO way shape or form dry and it's actually seasoned! It's juicy and normal is it overcooked. The olives? Brothers and sisters I HATE olives by themselves, rarely on certain foods. But these olives are not overpowering and stealing the flavor profile, it just adds more depth to the flavor bomb of the Greek chicken Pita! The feta? What could be bettah? Seriously though if you can see this picture you should've seen that they don't skip on the feta either. Again the flavor is ALL the way there but not overpowering. While the texture is almost creamy. Probably with assistance from the sauce but still, it's not overly dry! 10/10 Would recommend & I will be back! Now the facility was spotless, the cleanest "fast food" I've ever seen. The staff? Phenomenonal, personable, kind, attentive to details, and downright superstars that make that place run like clockwork! Wooooo wo weeeee wo!!! If you haven't been here then you've got to go!! Moderate prices, exceptional ingredients, lovely staff, and clean facilities(where the staff actually care like the NW Expressway location in OKC). I'm out, ty for listening to my Ted talk! 🫡“

“Lauren is the epitome of customer service. She was a gem. Not only did she have great food and drink recommendations but she made our group feel welcomed and kept the laughter going. I will visit again and make sure to ask for her specifically!“

“The best food I have tasted located in a gas station!!! Great lamb gyro and equally great is the fish sandwich“

“My seabass was delicious! The potatoes weren’t seasoned and the vegetables were charred terribly. The lamb chops weren’t edible so the salmon kabobs replaced them. That salmon and rice was to die for! The watermelon salad was tasty as well.“

“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“

“We were looking for a new Mediterranean restaurant to try, and wasn't initially aware that the restaurant inside the hotel.

The decor was relaxing, music was the right volume, and our waitress Darian was a star! She recommended the cauliflower appetizer and it may be our favorite thing to eat this year! Everything was delicious (the octopus is as good as we've ever had it) and the service was A+ (we decided to split a beer with dessert and she brought it to us served in two chilled glasses without us asking).

The only thing that fell short were our cocktails (the martini didn't taste like a martini and my paper plane tasted like the martini that didn't taste like a martini), but that may be a fluke and we will be back!“

“I just experienced this cafe for the first time and the food is AMAZING ! I enjoy the clearly labeled vegetarian options and possible allergens being easily viewed on the menu. I ordered the falafel gyro with stuffed grape leaves as a side and I thoroughly enjoyed every bite of it. You can taste the meal has a recipe that’s been perfected through time, love and care. This house made falafel will be getting ordered by me again and I am excited to try out the entire menu on my return visits !“

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

“The staff at this Cava location did an excellent job with their service. The food was quality, we were welcomed in, and they served quickly and with kindness from start to finish. If I lived closer, this would be my permanent Cava. Thanks for the excellent service! I’ll be back!“

“Amazing crew Lyana, Kat and Valeriya and other awesome stuff members make sure the place looks crispy clean, work very fast and have very friendly vibe. Even right before closure all food was fresh and it was plenty of food at this time and it was delicious. Had great experience tonight at this location tysm“

“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 recommend the rack of lamb and the Istanbul Martini. The food was good and the atmosphere was great. I will be going back.“

“My god this was such a beautiful experience, the owner was so kind and so talkative, and he was rightfully very proud of his food. The food was excellent, I had the Chicken Doner Wrap, and it was incredible. Everything was perfect, it was fresh and so juicy. The spicy sauce was such a good addition, with a little bit of numbness involved. And the roasted eggplant hummus was just so simple and delicious, I usually don’t care for hummus but this changed my mind. It was a great experience and there is plenty of seating in the back! I will come back here for sure.“

“FABULOUS food! I’ve eaten in Greece, and this is authentic! Great service too…10 out of 10. Don’t miss out! 😋“

“Larry was very helpful!! Good service“

“Came here Saturday afternoon after hearing that they had some of the best hummus in Atlanta and WOW!!! They were spot on! The hummus is incredible and the pickled veggies it comes with were very special. The hummus came with pita bread which was the best pita bread I’ve ever tasted.

Their menu has 10” pizzas, sandwiches, and hummus bowls. Everything is made fresh to order and the staff were very courteous. I’m definitely coming back to try some of their sandwiches. The Hulk and Flying V are supposed to be very good and are vegan which is perfect for me! 100% worth checking out!“

“First time eating here at Cava in Panama City Beach, Fl and my experience was AWESOME! Friendly staff, very very helpful because there are so many choices. Absolutely delicious! I’ll be back and I will recommend to everyone! ❤️❤️❤️❤️“

“First time here and def is our favorite shawarma spot! Super flavorful! Great portions! Amazing pita!!! Everything was yummy!!! 😋 Will be back!!! Parking situation is a bit odd but Chamblee does have a good amount of on street parking which is what we did.“

“The food here is amazing! The shah kabob plate was so good. Everything was delicious!“

“Real Whipped garlic & fattoush salad make my pregnant wife happy. Also falafels aren’t dry. My son loves them.“

“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!!“

“@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.“

“Tried this restaurant on a lark. Outstanding! We had the lamb chops green beans and broccoli. Excellent. And the red velvet cake topped off a great meal. It is definitely on my "new favorites " list and I highly recommend it to anyone who wants a great meal.“

“nice and fast and good customer service“

“the food is very good food here.“

“I highly recommend this chain! It breaks up the monotony of the other quick service bowl restaurants. They offer unique seasonal options for sauces and I love that they will give you the sauce and dressings on the side and you can administer it yourself. Fell in love with the jerk sauce Summer 2025 and I can’t wait to stop by again to try what’s new for fall 2025. Smart concept, quick service, healthy food, and lastly, I love the fact that they offer MOUTHWASH in the restroom.“

“New discovery 🤤. 2 orders this past week. Ordered chicken avocado bowl with power grains, brown rice pilaf and quinoa with geeens as the base. FOODIE APPROVED ‼ keep it up XENiA. Highly recommended, recommended to tons of friends as well. Both times were great. Malik prepared second order, both times made with love although I forgot who it said prepared the first time. Look forward to trying the other bowls in the near future.“

“Went there for the time and wasn’t disappointed. Great service and great food. Will definitely go back.“

“I went with a friend for drinks and an appetizer. We chose the crusted baked brie and the French sparkling rose; both were fabulous...so much so that we had to get a second sparkling rose! Our server, Olivia, was wonderful...she was very kind, friendly and attentive, providing excellent service. And last, the vibe is cozy and chill at the same time; just perfect! Do yourself a favor and give this place a try if you haven't already. I am looking forward to going back and trying some other things on the menu. Thanks Apres Diem!“

“Sahirah is a great place to grab some Indian food. I highly recommend the garlic naan. Other dishes such as lamb Kebab and curry are also very good plus the staff is so friendly they make feel welcome. Check them out at Politan Row At The Forum“

“delicious Israeli food. schnitzel, hummus, salad, etc.“
