42 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Burr Ridge

“the best shawarma and mashawee in town. its very clean and they have professional staff.“

“My husband and I were very impressed with the food. It's made fresh and is delicious. The fries tasted great and were not greasy. My husband had a huge delicious hamburger that he couldn't finish in one sitting. I had the steak shawarma which I enjoyed very much. We sat outside because the weather was perfect for it. The people working there were friendly and polite. We were definitely impressed.“

“I never had kabobs presented on skewers like at Reef Kabob; such fun! Excellent hummas and tabular salad. The most gracious staff!“

“This is the closet I have come to my Armenian grandmother's lamb. It's cooked perfectly and the wrap style is so unique and delicious. The falafel is amazing is so authentic. If I could give this establishment 10 stars, I would!“

“I ordered the lamb chops called in to ask what comes with the meal was told a grilled tomato and grilled onion which did not come with mine for some strange reason $28 I should have gotten everything anyway I can say that it was seasoned well however meet was a little chewy could have been more tender perhaps cooked a bit longer rice was good restaurant smelled like fish but I guess it's a seafood restaurant so I digress not the greatest but not bad“

“Food was over all nice tasting, service was good too. Bread could have been warmer,. Baklava, fillet mignon kabab entrée and hummus were fresh and delicious. Entrées need homemade sauces and not commercial hot sauce or Sriracha sauce. My tabbouleh had gravels in it, could not eat it.“

“La Parra is an authentic restaurant. Each time I go, I try something different, because I know they won't disappoint me. Everything tastes great and the staff are extremely attentive.“

“Amazing place amazing people“

“My husband and I had an amazing dinner experience at Autre Monde! Exceptional service, excellent food, and delicious desert! Cannot wait to come back!“

“We ordered dishes for Thanksgiving and they were nothing short of amazing! I was delighted to serve my guests the Msakhan. baked spinach pies and fried cheese pies as appetizers. For the main course Shaima prepared a delicious turkey with mashed potatoes and mixed grill, which was an absolute delight! The desserts were also incredible, with just the right amount of sweetness. Shaima is an extremely talented gourmet cook and I would highly recommend using Alrayes catering for your next event!

Vegetarian options: My husband is an Indian vegetarian and there were many manu options for him“

“saw it as driving to get my car wash & decided to check it out / went thru drive thru got the bowl chicken and steak it was delicious“

“Tasty shawarma and excellent service. Reasonable prices in addition make it a great choice for a casual meal or take out. Has room for improvement when it comes to decor. That said, I'll take the excellent food at this spot any day over a restaurant with great interior design and average food.

Recommend and will visit again!“

“Amazing food and hospitality
Second time eating here. Service and food were exceptional it feels like you are family when you sit down and treated like you are friends

“Good food. very fresh and excellent flavor. clean and inviting atmosphere.“

“Best falafel and Shawarma“

“me and my boyfriend tried this place out for the first time during summer & immediately fell inlove with it. From customer service to the food is great . Always welcomed in. Ever since then we come here once a week or every two weeks , so much options & for great prices. The chicken is always well seasoned ! Have literally tried almost everything off the menu & it’s just great. Also customer service is amazing ! They are so polite & if asked for another sauce or anything in general they never give an attitude like other places do so that’s a top, asides from that for any inconvenience they always find a solution too. One of my favorites spots ! & of course I’ll be back there soon !“

“First time having dinner here and it was so good. Fast service and nice atmosphere. Looking forward to coming back!“

“This was my very first time trying this Restaurant! BRAVO!!! I REALLY enjoyed my meal. The cashier was friendly, and extremely helpful in helping me understand the Menu. I also liked the that one of the cooks brought me my meal. because he saw the cashier was busy. I will be back. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Petra Falafel is my favorite Middle Eastern restaurant in the area. Their chicken shawarma platter is a masterpiece, and the garlic, jalapeno, and habanero sauces are very tasty, be sure to order extras! Their portions are generous, often leaving me with leftovers for at least another full meal. The staff is always friendly and attentive, making the whole experience even better. We always order for pick up, but they do have a dining area and I believe they are also BYOB. Next time you are craving falafel, baba ghanoush or shawarma give Petra Falafel a try - you will not be disappointed!“

“Food was very tasteful. Service a bit slow.“

“Amazing experience. My husband is moroccan and hasn't ate his national dish in 6 months. We live in a small town with no moroccan cuisine. Owner was so friendly and gave best dishes. It was my first time trying moroccan food and it was such a lovely experience. We had Medina coucous with lamb shank (perfect texture and flavor), tatuka(with beets and carrots), kefta tagine,and moroccan tea. Everything was great. Highly recommend!“

“Had an amazing lunch!!! Food selection is amazing. I wound up with the Tuna Poke Bowl and it didn’t disappoint. Our waitstaff was attentive to detail. I am not a big dessert person when I go out, but the Key Lime Pie was calling our names. SOOOOO good!!! Thank you for a great meal. We will be back very soon.“

“I've been to this restaurant twice, and both times were amazing! The lamb Haneeth is an absolute must-try – it's sooo good. The flavors are just incredible, and the meat is so tender. The servers were super nice too.
Highly recommend checking this place out if you're in the area!“

“Fill-A-Pita is one of my favorite Mediterranean spots! They’ve completely changed my view on tabbouleh salad; now I can’t get enough of it! I always order the bowl with falafel and spicy red rice, which is absolutely delicious and packed with flavor. The portion sizes are massive—I can never finish in one sitting, and I can EAT! My boyfriend is obsessed with their chicken shawarma; he can’t stop raving about it. Plus, the pricing is very reasonable for the quality and quantity you get. Highly recommend this gem!“

“It's so tasty, fresh, they have so many options for topping your sandwich to make it exactly how you like it. Chicken shawarma pita is something I miss so much and can't get where I live in Indiana so I stop here every time I visit Palos Heights to get my fix.“

“Had another great meal this evening. Kefi does it right! Looking forward to next time. Thank you!“

“This place *never* lets us down. The food is delicious, fresh and just so tasty. Their hummus is the BEST- they add some delicious garnishes on it. Best hummus I’ve ever had. Just too good and reliable. My kids love it too which is great.“

“Excellent food for dine in and creative, well presented catering service options. Karim worked with me to create a menu that our guests loved.“

“Highly recommend! Amazing staff and food/products. They have experienced employees for each specialty- a cook to cater any middle-eastern dish, a baker to bake all the fresh pita bread and spinach and cheese pies each morning, and of course, the hummus and falafel are made fresh daily. You should definitely give this place a try!

** I very much disagree with the reviews about the 3.99 meat sale. The woman herself wrote “it’s unheard of.” I was also there that day and I did not see any sign regarding the meat sale, therefore, the customer should have confirmed the price before ordering her meat instead of blaming the staff member.“

“I really enjoy Mediterranean food and this dish not disappoint. The trio of dips was super tasty and salmon and spinach salad good too and both were plenty to share between two for lunch and arrived to our table quickly. Pricing was reasonable too“

“By far the best Arabian restaurant we have ever been to in the USA! We came from TN especially for this restaurant! And to make your experience even better and more memorable, please ask for Mohamed! And or store manager Hamza!

Mohammed was the best and made us wanted to come back the following day for another dinner!

Go and you won’t regret it!!“

“Excellent in every way! Meatball appetizer was superb!! Carbonerra was authentically made. Friendly, efficient service. Don't forget the Gelato and bread pudding. We will return!“

“food is always good here. staff is friendly and helpful“

“Muy rico todo lo recomiendo es un Lugar familiar“

“SUPER LOVE THIS LITTLE GEM!!! Burgers, Fries, Salads, Chicken Pot Pie and Tomato Basil Soups, Salmon, etc. are amazing!!! Peppermint Bread Pudding is TO DIE FOR!!! Great service! Sadly, their one stall restroom is a bit distant. But their food makes me SOOOOO HAPPY!“

“we are disappointed with our order. The food was cold, the falafel was not fresh, and you changed grilled kuba with fried kuba which was also overpriced, and the pit bread not fresh“

“is a good place for eat healthy.“

“Very nice restaurant with healthy food options and gluten-free dishes.
It is very pricey $$$$

Dietary restrictions: Gluten-free items on menu.

Parking: Good food, but very overpriced $$$.
Be prepared to spend a lot of money.“
