33 Best Mediterranean Restaurants in Baltimore

“We had an incredible experience. The service was fast, the staff were welcoming, the food was delicious. Looking forward to try more items on the menu soon!“

“Costiera is small, inviting, and absolutely worth a visit. From the moment we arrived, the service stood out as impeccable. The staff was attentive without ever hovering, quick with suggestions, and made us feel genuinely taken care of.

When we walked in, there were two tables available right away, but they asked if we’d mind waiting just a minute so they could seat us at a much better window table. That kind of thoughtfulness goes a long way these days, and we really appreciated it. Our server checked in often, was kind, and gave fantastic recommendations that made us feel like we ordered the very best of the menu.

The food was excellent across the board. The pasta was perfectly cooked and tasted even better than it looked. The octopus was a standout dish—tender, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. Everything we tried was balanced, well-executed, and memorable.

All in all, we had a flawless experience here. Costiera delivers on service, food, and atmosphere. Highly recommend, especially if you’re looking for something a little different done really well.“

“We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner at Ouzo Bay. The swordfish was among the best I have ever had -- well seasoned and moist, not overcooked. My husband had the lamb shank and it melted in your mouth. They could have added some additions to the dish, however. The baklava was a nice end to the meal, but it wasn't the layered variety that is traditional. With two drinks, the bill adds up quickly. There is also a 3-4% service charge (not explained).“

“Celebrated our anniversary here tonight and everything was just right - from the service to the meal to the atmosphere. Wonderful staff, creative and exciting menu options and lovely decor. Really made our night perfect :)“

“My wife and I decided at the last minute to go out on a Saturday evening and we picked Marie Louise Bistro for dinner. We sat outside and had a genuinely wonderful meal! While you often see the same staff there for years, our server this time was young and new to the industry. Despite that, you could tell she had received training from the other staff, and she did a fantastic job. A very good sign! She had another waiter show her how to open and pour the wine, but aside from that we’d have barely known she was new to the job. As for the food, it was excellent. I’d give 9 or 10 out of 10 for everything and my wife enjoyed her meal too. I had a 3-course that included a surf and turf special, and my wife had duck confit. It’s incredibly reasonably priced for the quality of food IMO. A gem of a restaurant! If any of you reading this have never been then I’d definitely recommend a visit!“

“I had the privilege of attending a fabulous birthday party for a dear friend recently. The service was outstanding! Chef Maria’s food was so flavorful. They kept bringing more and more food all fresh and delicious. Bravo Cypriana !!“

“Dependable. Friendly. Relaxed.“

“We had Pitamore cater an event for us and it was great! We had so many compliments from our guests about the cuisine. The lamb was a huge hit and for good reason as it was really juicy and flavorful. We love their fresh made salads and dips too! But let me tell you the pita is amazing! Thanks so much Pitamore for the great service and delicious eats!!“

“Amazing falafel. Don’t sleep on the mint lemonade. Friendly staff. Lots of vegan and vegetarian options.“

“Great food! Will order again!“

“I like the restaurant and the food very delicious 😋“

“Let me start with this — the food was great. Everything we ordered was fresh, seasoned right, and worth the trip. Baltimore seafood never disappoints, and Jimmy's definitely held it down on that end. Now for the real talk: the vibe when I first walked in? Off. The hostess straight-up left me standing there after I checked in — no “we'll seat you soon,” no “we're waiting on your party,” nothing. Just silence and attitude. When I asked what was going on, she finally says, “Oh, we don't seat until your whole party's here.” Cool. I get policies. But communication and tone cost zero dollars. Once I got past that energy, the food and overall atmosphere made up for it. Lively crowd, good music, and delicious food. Bottom line: Jimmy's, your food is A1 — but please put some warmth and professionalism up front. The hostess is the face of the experience, and that first impression matters. Don't let bad energy block good seafood.“

“I love the food and the people!!! Try it for your self and your belly will thank you!“

“We were a large group that came in from out of state for the Goya tournament held at St Nicholas. The food was delicious, authentic Greek, and the portions were huge. We are thankful to the owners who accommodated our large group. If you want a cozy Greek restaurant with great Greek food you definitely want to try this place out! I got the pork souvlaki platter and the tirokeftedes- Καλή όρεξη“

“sooooo good had jerk rice n peas cabbage and plantain...value for money super tasty and favours!! delivery service and the delivery lady was super nice“

“love there chicken and rice.can not wait for the weekend“

“I love the food and the people!!! Try it for your self and your belly will thank you!“

“Good news, bad news. The croquettes and tuna tartar were delicious. The olives and octopus were okay. The paella was terrible. The menu lists all these ingredients that were clearly not included. The chicken breast on top was hammered. The dish was very oily and there was no socorrat which is the quintessential paella characteristic. I'm sure it's not easy to train staff how to do this well so take it off the menu until you get it right.“

“one of the best Gyros I have ever had.....always friendly....I walk by the spot almost everyday......always get a smile and a wave...I love eating the food.... I guarantee if you walk by state center you will notice the smell of their delicious food......check them out.....great prices......excellent food.....“

“I went there for work from Oregon in 2023. One day I went very cool, I was very hungry. I had to go to a restaurant that had halal food, which was about 40 minutes away from the beautiful restaurant. I had to go, I finally got there. The food they served me was delicious, but. I loved it. I liked it very much. I am grateful for the excellent service“

“Food was very good. Chose Mezzas. The Batata Harra was diced potato roasted with cliantro, garlic, and red pepper flakes that gave it a nice kick. Also had the M'Saka that was oven roasted eggplant, chickpeas, tomatoes, onion, garlic. I would order both again and see several other dishes I would love to try. Our waitress was Vegan knowledgeable and helpful with making selections.“

“Fantastic food, industrial, chic decor, superb service and Judy is fabulous. You simply must dine in this fantastic establishment.“

“I went there and ordered the jerk pork with rice and peas with steam cabbage on the side, food was one of the best I have since I've been in the states ain't gonna lie❤️❤️❤️ not to mention the interaction with the cashier I didn't get her name but she gave the best service I had “

“The whole restaurant was a vibe. Our bartender and server was awesome. Ellen is one of one. Her personality and energy was very contagious in a good way. They checked on us every 5 mins to touch base with our satisfaction level on drinks and food. They conversed with us throughout the whole dining experience. I was thoroughly pleased with the food and it was light after breaking a 17 hr fast. If you are going please talk to Ellen she is phenomenal at what she does for the customer experience 💪🏾💪🏾 keep her !!“

“First time visited Jasa kabob. Really liked their food. It was delicious especially the naan😋 and the price was reasonable for the quantity of the food.“
