26 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Fridley

“I have eaten at just about every Chicago style eatery in Minnesota, and your food was good. I ordered a chicken wing dinner, and I really appreciate that the wings were cooked fresh. Most places the wings are cooked prior to your order and just thrown back in the grease once you placed your order. “

“If you find yourself in Minneapolis/St. Paul and are even a little bit hungry- I highly recommend you try this cozy, friendly, delectable local restaurant. Every thing I ate and drank was amazing and the owner was a gracious and talented restaurateur. #tripadvisor and #lonelyplanet and #moontravel u should check this place out!“

All around outstanding experiences!!!“

“Saw that Cardamom switched to a more traditional museum-style of service with the counter service/qr code system. It felt super natural and a great fit for the space. The service had been pretty slow in the past and this really sped things up before bringing my daughter to the walker. Great food, easy system, cute space. Really bummed about the decision to close. Hopefully the next operate has better luck with such a tough location.“

“It’s sooooo good . I recommend 👍“

“I ordered online late at night and when I arrived, they’d had to close early, but told me to come back the next day and they would honor my order. I’m so glad I did! They provided me with the falafel wrap and mango smoothie I ordered (both fresh and delicious) and also gave me an order of hummus for the inconvenience I experienced. Excellent customer service, good food, clean and quiet restaurant. Thank you!“

“Cute little place hidden on the skyway level. Dry rub chicken wings were awesome! Crispy! Gyro pinwheels were also quite delicious. Service was efficient, not overly friendly but they were also very busy so maybe that was the reason. Sat at the bar. Definitely recommend if you are looking for a place to meet friends for drinks and food. Good volume for talking.“

“Amazing food, fun atmosphere, and great service each time. Def recommend the wagyu sandwich and the garlic paste is my favorite thing to smother on everything. So good!“

“The BEST gyro in the entire state! The entire WORLD in my opinion! Everything taste just a little better when it's made from the heart! #omarthegreat #goodeats #minneapolis“

“If you crave a different kind of food experience, a Mediterranean and Middle Eastern buffet with big flavors and a large variety of dishes to choose from. You won’t leave the place hungry. We like the babaganoush, hummus, tabule, lentil soup, the pita and breads, the various ways they make ribs, kofta kebab, and the great desserts, like kunafa and baklava. Once in a while, some of the food weren’t hot enough. All you have to do is just wait until they bring out more food from the kitchen. Be sure to ask for mint tea, it is our favorite drink. The place is usually packed with folks from the Middle East and Africa during lunch. Between lunch and dinner, you will not have trouble finding a table.“

“Great hospitality! Great smells! Great tea!“

“So Good!! No menu unless you look online or ask them for help! The food was amazing! Definite a 10 out of 10. I had a wrap.“

“I stopped by Falafel King while visiting Minneapolis from Dallas and it was fantastic. I had the chicken shawarma bowl and it was very tasty and really satisfying. My partner had a gyro that was also really delicious. The fries were perfectly cooked and really well seasoned, and the sauce they served with them (I’m guessing tzatziki?) was especially good. Everything tasted fresh and full of flavor. I’d definitely recommend stopping here if you’re in the area.“
