10 Best Mediterranean Restaurants in Lawrenceville

“The food here is flavorful and warm. They always seem to use the freshest ingredients anytime I’ve been here, and I’ve never been disappointed. The staff is also super nice! At the end of my meal when I went to go pay, I asked for two baklavas, and the guy gave me a third one on the house! It was very sweet of him.I need to come back here more often! I wanna support local business more, so that’s a bonus if you come here, in addition to literally everything else!“

“Great service and great food. My wife and I love this place and the owner is wonderful. They go above and beyond and I don't want to gush too much because quite frankly he shouldn't be as nice as he has been to us. We try to pickup some gyros and dessert at least once a month.“

“I just bought a home in Georgia relocating from spending a life in Chicago. I was told by other Chicago transplants the hardest adjustment was not finding amazing food. Well it didn’t take us long. After reading the 35 reviews all 5.0 we decided on giving Lincoln's Lincoln's a try. The food was fantastic. All of it. One of the best burgers I ever ate. Husband had Gyro and that tasted amazing. Kids said it was the best chicken tenders they ever had. You can’t leave without trying their desserts. So if you are looking to find a new place to try out this is your place. The young lady who took our orders and brought our food was also wonderful. Best customer service I have seen in a long time. We will definitely be coming back.“

“First time eating here and the food was delicious and warm! Even though I ordered it through grub hub, they packaged everything super well and the food was fresh and hot. The falafel could have been fried for longer as they were still mushy on the inside but the baklava and shawarma platter was SOOOO GOOD! Huge portions and worth the money!Vegetarian options: There are options that are vegetarian friendlyDietary restrictions: They have some dietary restriction items and low calorie itemsParking: Free parking areaKid-friendliness: They do have kids optionsWheelchair accessibility: There is handicap accessible“

“I love this place. So delicious and affordable! You can come and sit for a while with a cappuccino and dessert or enjoy a full meal. I’ve gotten to try a lot of European foods that I wouldn’t have otherwise. The market behind the cafe is also worth a visit and has a lot of great items including an impressive chocolate aisle.“

“The best Greek restaurant in town and around for many miles! This is a review that has been long awaited and absolutely earned. Athens Kouzzina is a jewel of a restaurant that I have the displeasure of not knowing earlier in my life. Having gone to this mall many times and walking by it many times in my youth, it was only when I was in my late teens when my family and I decided to go try it out and, goodness was it a good decision! None of the other Greek restaurants I have ever been to have compared to Athens Kouzzina. They have that special cooking touch that others can’t replicate. The owner being Greek and well experienced, this restaurant absolutely earns its many accolades that it has won over the many years of its operation. They don’t win these accolades year over year for no reason. If you are in the area and want some really good quality Greek food, you cannot skip on Athens Kouzzina.Athens Wings 20/10 - May honestly be the best thing on the menu and something you should not miss out on. My family and I always get this on every visit! It is 100% the best chicken wing of any flavor out there. Not only are the wings fried to perfection, but they are also bathed in an exquisite, unique, and extremely delectable sauce. This special and secret sauce holds several spices (presumably Greek) and flavors that just cannot be beat anywhere. It is notable that there was pride and expertise put into this mix. This sauce seeps very deeply into the chicken and gives it just another reality of flavor. And to make it even better, they have this most delectable feta cream sauce to dip them in. This feta sauce is like tzatziki sauce but far more flavorful. This trifecta of impeccable food quality is irresistibly delicious and guaranteed to make your taste buds beg you for another plate. As you can tell from my review, it is one of the best things I have ever put in my mouth and definitely the best wings out there. If you’re reading this, stop what you’re doing, put your diet on hold, and come try these!Athens Platter 10/10 – A large plate of some amazingly flavorful ingredients. I have tried the gyro meat, chicken, and pork souvlaki and can say they all taste very delicious. My personal favorite is the gyro meat due to its deep strong flavor. I suppose you can say that most gyro meats come premade into restaurants, but I cannot comment on whether it is homemade or bought. Regardless, it does have a good flavor. The chicken has its Greek seasoning though the flavor does not seep deep into the chicken meat as I would prefer. The pork is the least flavorful of the 3 and has the same issue with the seasoning not seeping deeply into the center. Regardless, both still have good flavor and can be dipped into the tzatziki sauce for an amazing combination. I always recommend getting a ½ and ½ platter so you can try from 2 delicious meals. The Greek potatoes are seasoned quite well and so are the fries if you choose to go that route. The rest of the platter is a simple salad and pita bread but those are just to accompany the other delicious things on the plate. Mix all these flavors together or in a small pita sandwich that you can make, and you have quite a flavorful bite of food. If you want a pro tip, ask for the feta sauce instead of/in addition to the tzatziki sauce for an even better experience! You can thank me later.Mt. Olympus Nachos 10/10 – A true literal mountain of unique and delicious nachos with a Greek spin on them. This is also one of my favorite things to get here and is such a great dish to share due to its enormous portion. Instead of nacho chips, fried potato chips are used instead. These are showered with vegetables, tzatziki sauce, and your choice of meat. There are no other nacho mountains high enough to reach the delicious flavor on the Mt. Olympus nachos. The culmination of all the topics on one bite of that crunchy potato chip is truly out of this world as well.One last note, the closer you stay to the Greek food, the better. I am at least happy that there is such a great focus on Greek food.Parking: Plenty of pa“

“I stumbled upon this doing doordash…staff is great...

“Everything was perfect! Food at the restaurant was delicious, groceries were top-tier, a room to pray in, clean restrooms, everyone was so kind and welcoming. Highly highly recommend. Can’t wait to bring my whole family! Thank you!! ???Vegetarian options: Cheese pies, spinach pies, falafel, rice, hummus, pita bread, etc.Kid-friendliness: Very comfortable & spacious for children.“

“This place is the real deal. Gave it a chance when I was just stopping by. The food is amazing here. Something to keep in mind though, the food is not sitting on a hot window waiting for you. It's all cooked order. So all of your food is made fresh. And you can tell when you bite into it. Wonderful experience. Wonderful people. Highly recommend this place.“

“Our office orders every 2-3 weeks from Real Olive. Everyone loves their food; it's fresh and tasty and plentiful. Their tabbouleh (salad) is amazing, as are their sandwiches. The lunch combo is a great deal--rice, salad and pieces of different kinds of beef.“
