The first time, I ordered online through Yelp. We ordered a regular pizza with few select toppings like banana peppers, onions, black olives, and bell peppers. The pizza was delivered after 45 minutes and it was hot. We were expecting chilli flakes and oregano on the side, but it looks like they don't offer these on the side.

Went in right before closing (which was unfortunately rude on our part, but falafel was necessary) and the person working happily served us even though they had already cleaned up. Falafel was delicious and ingredients were fresh!

Awesome , great service . Some great traditional meals. Reasonably priced with great quantities

Falafel was hard and dry. Tabouleh was just chopped parsley with a yogurt sauce and rice and hummus were bland. A true disappointment considering it received 4.5 stars. They need to do better..

Great quick food that is healthy at a good price and friendly service. It's not fancy dining but great for a casual place.

I ordered from here once. I ordered a chicken and mushroom pizza, large. I got a medium pizza with chicken, olives, red pepper. I called because I thought I got the wrong order. The guy said mushrooms taste like whatever you cook them with so it's basically the same thing. Plus, he said he was out of mushrooms. I can't eat spicy foods and I tried to tell him that but he kept saying "same thing, it's the same thing". They should have called me and asked if I wanted something different instead of assuming I would like what they picked out for me.

Ordered from grubhub. Order came completely wrong. 'Greek' salad had no cucumbers, no tomatoes and no dressing. My whole order was messed up. Grubhub thankfully refunded it but the presentation was poor. I tasted what i could and was not impressed...save yourself the time and money.

I must start by saying I did not taste the Mediterranean here. I feel like the high rating is because of the lack of alternative (non-mainstream) foods in Worcester. Looking for such with my cousin, we found either Mediterranean or Japanese. Since she's not the seafood type, here we went. I had a shawarma plate. The meat was decently spiced but not particularly hot off the spit. The sides and veggies did not seem to have a lot of attention given to them. Rice was eh, clearly sitting around for a bit. There was not a lot of feta with the veggies. On the other hand, unlike some reviewers, I did like the pita. The baba ghanoush was kinda... it stuck together. Stick-togethery? Not really gluey, but not the normal consistency I expect of such. Verdict: Stick to Japanese if you need to exit America for a meal in Worcester.

Pretty much what you'd expect for a chain shawarma/falafel fast food place. The biggest surprise is that the falafel is fried to order. I wasn't impressed with the shawarma meat or the pita (this is a particularly bad sin in Worcester), but they can properly sauce a sandwich here, which admirably covers up most deficiencies. Taste of Med makes sense as a lunch option for office workers or maybe a late night meal if a bar scene ever develops downtown. Its not as good as most of the local spots in the city though.
