31 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Gretna

“Very good food friendly staff.“

“This was my second time at Cava today and I came because of TikTok of course. I was greeted with a very kind greeting from Ms. Ebony. And she was able to help me pick out everything I could want since I was pretty new to everything. She is so sweet and deserves all the love AND big raise. I will DEFINITELY be back not just because of the food but because of her too!“

“To give you a sense of the kind of service and care, the waitress informed us that she does not give a check until asked so that people can stay at the table as long as they like and not feel rushed. The owner is a wonderful character. He makes you feel like family and that is part of what makes the atmosphere so pleasant. Of course it's a restaurant. So it's the food that's most important. I had the grilled fish of the day .I can't recall having a better seasoned and cooked fish. Everything was wonderful. A little quirk is that they do not have hard liquor on the menu. It's available, but don't expect any exotic drinks. We will be returning.“

“Food was amazing. Plenty of vegetarian options. We had a great experience here.“

“always fresh! always delicious ❤️“

“the food is amazing. the kabobs, the lamb chops, and the humus! I highly recommend!“

“LOVE IT. this is my 1st time visiting Nola & I’ve gone to many restaurants..
This is 100% the best food I’ve had since being here. Greek is my favorite food & I can be a bit picky, but this place knocked it out of the park. Friendly service, homemade/authentic food, & they got it out quick!
Very happy to have made this choice :)
They even gave us free baklava!
Please go here👍🏼“

“The best, most craveable muffaletta. I went here twice in one weekend just for this sandwich and still can't stop thinking about it 🤤“

“Amazing food. Fresh, cooked to perfection and right in front if you. Best grilled salmon I ever had. The salad, rice and humus, totally delicious. Love, love, love this place.“

“Food is fantastic and the prices are excellent, too. I always order the babaganough which is delicious and comes with lots of pitta bread, ( made in house. )
I often get the red lentil soup, which is plentiful and inexpensive. The combo plate is delicious, with hummus, a great salad and lots
of meat. I get 3 meals out of it easily. I usually finish my meal with a Turkish coffee and a triangle of baklava, a Phyllo dough and honey dessert.

Vegetarian options: Red lentil soup, babaganough is delicious, and comes with warm pitta bread. I love their salad. There are lots of vegetarian options, like kibble, falafel and many more.“

“I am not a person that normally would write a review. However, I just have to rave about the amazing customer service that I always receive when I go to Cava. Specifically from Syrius! He always goes above and beyond every time I am in there. Not just with me but with everyone I see him interact with! In addition, he always has a smile on his face and as someone who works in customer service I appreciate his friendly and welcoming demeanor every time I come in. It’s honestly rare. He keeps me coming back! I’m not sure if he is the manager but if not…. he should be, that’s for sure.“

“Great food and wonderful atmosphere“

“Excellent meal with friendly service. A must stop in NOLA.“

“Amazing food. Fresh, cooked to perfection and right in front if you. Best grilled salmon I ever had. The salad, rice and humus, totally delicious. Love, love, love this place.“

“We dined in and upon first entering, you can tell the place is kept extremely clean and well maintained! The employees/manager welcomed us with a genuine smile and warmth. The menu is well-designed for simplicity and ease of use. I ate the shrimp platter and my wife had the chicken platter. Both came with a salad, hummus, rice, and pita bread. Neither of us got the hummus, but we both received extra salad. The plates were delivered to our table quickly, and hot! The shrimp platter had AMAZING flavor, not overbearing and not too typical of seafood - just perfect! The rice is to die for, and was probably my favorite part of the dish, which says wonders because I absolutely love my seafood! The salad was simple, yet tasty and crisp. My wife loved the chicken platter in its entirety! All-in-all, I'd give them a 4.9, but only due to them offering drinks in 12oz cans instead of out of the fountain, but its able to be overlooked for the overall experience.“

“I wanna start by saying that I was so excited that the Mediterranean restaurant opened up near us. I live in River Ridge and we love Mediterranean food. I went to Byblos and everything was clean, the staff was amazingly friendly. Their homemade bread was to die for. The only thing I have an issue with, is their menu. They say there’s vegetarian platters however the falafel‘s are cooked in with other meat. Which definitely makes it not vegetarian at all. You cannot cook vegetarian food in with meat. It doesn’t make sense. So unfortunately there’s many things that we think we can eat there that we cat. But I will say the things that I Did eat, were spectacular. Their soups, bean dips, hummus and their pasta dishes with vegetables. They were out of this world delicious. I would give this restaurant 4 1/2 stars only because of the discrepancy with their vegetarian food. I would be willing to even buy them a fire for separate use for falafel’s lol. Anyways definitely check out this amazing restaurant! I am going back today:)“

“All of the food we've tried is spot on. Great gyros, kebab, shwarma, salads and humus. Try the fried cheese appetizer. Friendly owners, upscale casual atmosphere. Trust me, you won't be disappointed.“

“We never knew this place even existed. Last time we looked it was an abandoned home. The menu was diverse with Mexican, po boys, and some Mediterranean. We all had tacos, birria and fish and they were all great with generous servings. The home made salsa was a nice treat. Give this place a try and don't overlook it. Note that there is off-street parking in the back.“

“I had the gyro bowl with spicy hummus and it was AMAZING!! When I go ( and I go often) the service is always great and the store is so clean!! I love this place and I highly recommend!“

“Awesome management! Beautiful atmosphere delicious food, has lots of options on the menu! Was my first time there and definitely will be going back ! 10/10😊“

“This is the most delicious and fresh Mediterranean food I’ve ever had! If you love Mediterranean, do yourself a favor and visit Kabob House! They serve generous portions with excellent service! I will be back! ❤️❤️❤️“

“All the times I have come here have not disappointed!! Amazing customer service!!! Kind, friendly and patient! I have dined in and had take out and always taste phenomenal!“

“This is a hidden gem in New Orleans. If you like authentic Greek food you MUST come here. It’s fresh, made from scratch daily and the most luxurious. Try the ouzo drinks, flaming cheese, pork belly yeero, and orange cake made with a decadent orange glaze. The service is amazing! Luka was so kind, gracious, informative. Please help support this business. You won’t be disappointed. There’s a million other Cajun restaurants…go Greek! Please!“

“Amazing food. Not too spicy. Fast and fresh. Made in front of u. Great location across from a Pokemon store and on magazine street to do shopping. It is located in gas station but has seats to sit. Great service and they even offer military discount. Very affordable tho. Thanks for talks service and fabulous food!“

“Excellent meal with friendly service. A must stop in NOLA.“

“The Hillel Center is a lovely place on campus with tons of events. I had the privilege of being a part of their “My City and Me” art show in which high school students displayed their work. Everyone was very welcoming and the students were so proud to have the exposure on a college campus. I will definitely check out future art shows here. Thanks, Hillel!“

“This place is truly wonderful. They serve amazing food, and I highly recommend it. The owner, Ben, came to our table, checked on us, and was very kind. The dishes are excellent, especially the kebab, which was perfectly cooked and full of flavor. The prices are reasonable, too. Turkish cuisine is my favorite, and everything tastes just as delicious as it does in Istanbul. I’ll definitely be coming back!“
