50 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Clarkston

“We had a business meeting nearby and selected Merhaba. The food was great! I had the gyro platter and we shared an order of grape leaves to start.

No AC inside but covered seating outside. Weather was good today for outside so not a factor.“

“The food was fantastic. We had a large party and they were great to provide for our crew. The falafel was amazing. The shawarma wraps were incredible. And the chicken and rice bowls were filling. For dessert we enjoyed the fig cookies, which were divine. Highly recommend. Will definitely dine at Al-Chef again when coming back to Clarkston!“

“This is literally the best food in Atlanta I have ever had or probably in the US! It was so good that I went back to get more!! I must say, Iraqi food is amazing. The way he presented the food was amazing. He also offered free chickpeas soup! Very kind host! 11/10!!!“

“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!!!!“

“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.“

“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.“

“We dined here for my friend's birthday dinner and it was a great experience. Our server, Kiana, is one of the best servers I've ever had. She was attentive, gave great recommendations, and was such a delight. Our food was very good and we will definitely be returning. We got the chocolate cake and the frozen yogurt dessert and both were incredible.“

“I went for the first time on a Wednesday night for a solo dinner. It it was a pretty dimly lit restaurant. The music was pretty loud and it was kind of hard to hear the waiter. It gives the look of an elegant restaurant with the typical Atlanta vibes(loud music, hookah, bottle girl shorts-onesie attire, and automatic 20% gratuity). The service was amazing and my server was nice so I did not mind the gratuity. The beef rigatonni pasta was really good, very creamy and the meat was tinder. The pasta does have a kick to it due to the jalepenos. The lychee martini was so delicious and the french 75 was pretty good too. I opted out of the hookak because it was $50, too pricey to me when I already spent over $100 on everything else. I think this would be a great spot during happy hour.

There is no free parking unless you park on the street. You park in a business complex so I am not sure why you pay $5 to self park and $20 for valet, it's all the same parking lot. This is normal for a lot of places in Atlanta but it is one of my hugest pet peeves and it seems greedy to me. I will more than likely not return because of it. I have never heard of a business justification as to why we pay to park in the parking lots. The cushions fall pretty low when you sit down but this wasnt a big deal. Lastly, the music was so loud this would not be a great date idea. I would probably order food to go(If there are not crazy fees). I would have given it 5 stars if it wasnt for the music and parking situation.“

“I love coming to this place, the plaza it is in feels like a little vacation oasis. The owner is so friendly, the food is also really good! I love how they let you try the sides. I like how fast it is and the casual vibe, perfect for when I want a quick bite on my lunch break!“

“The food is so amazing and reasonably priced. One of our new favorite restaurants. Our server Frankie, was super attentive and sweet. And we spoke with the owner/chef, Kiki. she was such a kind and genuine person who risked everything to start this beautiful business. I know all her hard work will pay off, the food, location, and ambiance is unmatched. Thank you for showing us around and opening up about your experience as a business owner Kiki! Big things are coming for this place!“

“Great restaurant and loved everything about this place.“

“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! 🫡“

“The Buckhead location is gorgeous! Its combination of a beautiful atmosphere, delicious food, and friendly, attentive staff makes this a restaurant worth coming back to time and time again! The quality and mouth-watering flavor of the food never disappoints. We were so appreciative of the little touches that were made to help us celebrate our anniversary recently! 5 stars all around!“

“Thank you, Kai! Our meal was delicious and healthy. I’m gluten free so I love having options. The grain bowl with salmon is filling and healthy and tastes great! The avocado salad was also delicious as was it beautifully prepared. Highly recommend!“

“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.“

“Every time I’m in a new area, I refuse to eat big chain restaurants, and I’m so happy I have that rule because this place is phenomenal! I don’t know what kind of vinaigrette they have but even the salads are out of this world and the lamb sandwich is a must get for your first token experience!! The food came out as fast as the service AND it was still hot by the time I got back to the apartment! Both gentlemen there were super kind and on point, the one taking my order gave me a good laugh too! Five stars is genuinely not enough 100/10 🙌 also the to tzatziki sauce is clearly in-house made be sure to get one“

“Had our rehearsal dinner last night at Cafe Lily in the Peacock Room and it was fantastic! Food was excellent and all the wait staff, particularly our main servers, Erin and Christian, were friendly and professional. The manager, Katie, was a pleasure to work with in getting everything set up and made sure the night ran smoothly. Highly recommend for a small party!“

“Wow!! We are so happy we decided to stop in this place for lunch. The owner is incredibly kind, the food is outstanding, the portions are enormous! Everything is very reasonably priced as well. We both got the lamb salad (with spice) and highly recommend. The sit down area has such a cozy atmosphere. We will definitely be back!“

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

“Live in the area and never been here. Michael was our server and did fantastic. It felt like a 5 star restaurant service with approachable prices for a nice night out. Had the salmon and harissa chicken and split it between the 2 of us. Fries are a must. We got them as an app and had plenty to take us through dinner. Saffron rice was great and all the fixings that came with the meal like veggies and sauces and such were so good! Great spot.“

“Spent several hours Saturday night and had a great time. The Bolognese pasta is the best I've ever had! Music was great and when DJ started it was poppin!
Didn't try hookah but others in our party loved it! I had Diet Coke and rum but tasted the Peach cocktail and it was delicious! Management checked on us several times to make everything was good!“

“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.

“Had to give a big shoutout to Baraka Shawarma — hands down one of the best spots in town. The food? 🔥 The service? On point. The people? Genuine. We’re grateful to have worked with them and even more grateful to enjoy their amazing food. If you haven’t checked them out yet, don’t sleep on it. May Allah continue to grant you barakah in every plate and every customer served! 🕌🍽️“

“Great food and services. Love it.“

“Indya was excellent“

“Absolutely fantastic Mediterranean food! I ordered one of their bowls, and the flavor was incredible—everything tasted so fresh and authentic. The portion size was huge, so you definitely get amazing value for your money. Highly recommend!“

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

“Man this is one place I've been where I have yet to replicate the rice. Its like a reddish color with oil and I swear I cant get enough of it. I can just eat the rice with vegetables. Can't even remember exactly what I ordered but even though the food was great that rice was amazing. Make sure to get the white sauce. No dine in just a drive thru.“

“@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.“

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

“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.“

“Food was exquisite, well seasoned, and visually appealing. We ordered something spicy, forgot what it was, but it hit the spot as far as taste was concerned. The coffee was everything I would expect from an Ethiopian restaurant. Went for my birthday and was a pleasant surprise. Hardly any patrons were present. There was a homeless man who kept trying to enter, the waitress eventually gave him a plate. That speaks to character. It took a little while to pay and leave as it was only one waitress.“

“the food is very good food here.“

“Maximos is one of my favorite places. I have been a costumer for many years; Great food and friendly family.“

“Listen everyone, they have the best staff EVER! I would like to thank them all, but most all, a special thanks to Andy. I came to the Grecian Dunwoody one day to pick up an order for my husband and was in a joking move that day. So, I said to Andy (worker) after placing my order. "I do not have any $$ to pay for it. Do you know this "outstanding young man" had sympathy for me and pulled out his personal credit card and offer to pay for my order. Ahhhh. I could have cried. WHO DOES THIS? Andy does this! I wish, I wish we had more workers like Andy in these fast-food places, not to pay for the customer's order, but just an overall, great young fellow, humble, caring and I hope when I go back that he still there, just to say thanks for being a GREAT Person & Worker at Grecian Gyro Dunwoody. His co-workers John & Mason were great employee too. Made my Day! Thanks to All of You. You don't meet people like Andy too often or at all these days. Thanks Andy, You're Special!“

“nice and fast and good customer service“
