50 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Norcross

“Pros - great service, food was amazing, the shrimp kebab was so well flavored and so were the fries. The one drink I had (a lemon drop) was strong.
Cons - OUTRAGEOUS prices. 6 shrimp and a pile of fries were $30, which is steep enough, and then they charged an automatic 20% gratuity. Felt like the gratuity was our punishment for choosing a spot that had only like 5 other patrons at midnight on a Saturday. Also the DJ/music was awful - just random, different songs until he left at 1 AM.
If not for the prices, I would be back to try the salmon which was $32 but after the gratuity would be nearly a $40 plate!“

“My girlfriend and I were trying to find a spot after work for dinner and this place popped up. The restaurant is clean and decorated nicely. Food is also insanely good I couldn't believe it, and the portions are generous as well. The lady working there was very friendly and kind, made sure we were well taken care of. Definitely coming back, thank you!“

“Delicious Greek food, great friendly service, clean and a nice atmosphere.“

“Fantastic food, great service in Alpharetta,Ga. We loved every bite not sure what the green mint smoothie was but OMG!!😳“

“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“

“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.“

“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!!!“

“CAVA is such a great spot with tons of vegan options to choose from. You can build your bowl with rice, lentils, veggies, falafel, and more — they even used to have sweet potatoes that were absolutely heavenly. Everything is super fresh, and they have plenty of vegan dressings to choose from. Really great go-to option when you want something quick, healthy, and flavorful.“

“Me and my girlfriend went in today right when they opened. We tried the chicken shawarma, it was absolutely worth it. The portion was HUGE. When I heard our food was ready and saw the plate, I was like, “WOWWW, that’s a big shawarma!” It barely even fit on the plate.

While we were waiting for our food, I actually saw the owner bringing in fresh ingredients that had just been delivered. Seeing that right away gave us a good feeling about the place, and it was a nice sign that they care about quality and freshness. After tasting the food, it definitely showed.

The chicken was flavorful, tender, and cooked perfectly. The shawarma also had lettuce and tomato in it and the French fries were crispy and paired really well with the meal. Everything tasted fresh, and the portion size definitely made the price feel justified.

The service was also very good. Everyone was nice, polite, and welcoming from the moment we walked in. The restaurant has a casual, comfortable atmosphere that makes it easy to sit down and enjoy your food.“

“Great food and services. Love it.“

“Delicious food, best Kabob, in town. Don’t miss out on the Ghormeh Sabzi !! Great service with great staff 👌 We are all looking to our next visit 😊“

“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! 🕌🍽️“

“One of the best beef/lamb shawarmas I’ve had in ATL. I had it with the Zhoug and tzatziki. I’ve read other reviews and my only suggestion is that they should make sure that the food is always fresh - perhaps, how I had it today…and, lower the price a bit so that you’re not walking out with a $20 shawarma. I’ll definitely be back….“

“The food was excellent and delicious!!!“

“My wife and I have came to Sugo for the past 5 years. We usually get the meatball, a couple of the Caesar salads, beef ravioli and the Hanger Steak along with a bottle of wine. It is a great place to have a date night, and we really appreciate the owner coming by and checking in on the guests.“

“Jessica was seriously amazing. She was so friendly, patient, and made the whole experience feel welcoming from the start. You can tell she genuinely cares about customers and takes pride in what she does. It’s rare to come across customer service that stands out this much, but Jessica really made my day better with her kindness and positive attitude. She made sure everything was right with my order and never seemed rushed or annoyed. CAVA is lucky to have someone like her on their team!“

“Warm and inviting atmosphere. Delicious food!“

“We have been coming here since they opened. Love the Gyro’s, always tasty. Great sides and like the Greek fries. Fast and friendly“

“Just off of pleasant hill on Breckinridge, you’ll find the gem that is Damasco. Duluth has tons of food options, covering pretty much every ethnicity and niche, so I was a bit stuck today with decision paralysis. Then, I saw Damasco and thought “this is close and I don’t have to deal with Pleasant hill.”

I got their lunch special, a chicken shawarma and kofta sandwich. After the first bite, I knew that out of all the restaurants I could have picked in the general area, I made the best choice possible.

Food is fresh, tastes amazing, priced very fairly, and you feel great afterwards. The restaurant is clean, beautiful, has good atmosphere, and great service. The bread was perfectly crispy, the meats were flavorful and juicy, and all the extra bits that go into the sandwich just elevates it to another level. Easily is gonna be my staple goto place for lunch!“

“Mazaj and Eleva are always the best places to go to I wouldn’t go anywhere else“

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

““Pizza Kiddos is an amazing spot! Their lahmacun is so delicious, and the pizzas are thin, crispy, and full of flavor. The ingredients are always fresh, and the portions are generous. The staff is super friendly and the service is quick. A warm, welcoming place to enjoy with family or friends. Highly recommended!”“

“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!“

“My boyfriend and I stopped at the Forum to get food and decided on this place. Absolutely amazing service. Shoutout to Abdul because he was patient, explained the portion size for my Bhel (I wanted something filling but small) and he even brought my boyfriend’s meal to the table! We ended up buying a milky drink from the business just because of that. The food taste fresh and amazing too. We will DEFINITELY be back. Thank you again Abdul!“

“Pulled over because I was running errands during my lunch break. Best decision I made all day. I got the spicy lamb gyro and it was delicious, warm, and packed with a lot of meat. It wasn't even that spicy as I had to ask before ordering it spicy because I love spicy food but a lot of places over do it . The nice lady at the window told me it wasn't that spicy and I went for it, brought it back to work and devoured it. I got one for my coworker and I was about to eat his because it was SOOO good. A little far from where I work but definitely worth the drive.“

“The food here is awesome!! I enjoyed it and highly recommend it to everyone who hasn't been!“

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

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