14 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Apex

“Great good. Customer service was a bit lacking though…“

“Great food, great service!“

“I rarely post reviews, but I felt I needed to after witnessing a recent interaction between a customer and the manager, Anam. The customer was essentially asking for double portions of everything without wanting to pay for it, claiming the bowl should be enough to feed two people. Anam handled the situation with professionalism and respect, despite the customer’s rude tone and demeanor.

In my experience, the portions at Mezeh are always generous — some people just expect double servings without paying for them. Like every business nowadays, Mezeh has to be cost-conscious, especially with rising food and ingredient prices. In my opinion, Mezeh consistently delivers fresh, high-quality meals that are both filling and flavorful. The staff are incredibly friendly, and the value is excellent. I’d truly hate to see this location close — they’re doing a fantastic job.“

“Nil’s is our favorite place to eat. The food is always delicious and fresh. We frequent them often and just tried their new location in Angier yesterday. Everything was excellent. Highly recommend!“

“Great selection of healthy foods!“

“One of the best places for Middle East food in the Triangle area“

“10 out of five stars! Price was on point, service was on point, flavor is on point, atmosphere on point, fresh and fast on point! Overall best dining experience in Holly springs in years! I'm not easily impressed [my name is "Karen"] but I will definitely be back soon and often! Hope they continue to be awesome 😎 KMN“

“Restaurant was clean and food was great! Tshion and John took awesome care of my order. Greens/Rice/Lentil combination base was superb with Great selection of veggie toppings.“

“I decided to try CAVA again after having a bad experience last year and the employees blew my apprehensions about coming back out of the water. The line was long (lunch hour) but the workers had a positive attitude and greeted each guest as they walked up to the counter to order. They really listened to each guest as they ordered to ensure accuracy when making the orders and communicated with each other to ensure understanding. My food was delicious and I'm glad I gave this place a chance again, I'll be back for sure!!“

“I ordered takeout from Taziki’s tonight and was really impressed! I ordered chicken kebabs, rice, and salad. In addition, I ordered some hummus with two types of pita – crunchy and soft. What really surprised me was how they took the time to wrap things instead of piling it all into one container. For example, the chicken kebabs were wrapped in foil so they would stay hot and juicy. The soft pita was also wrapped so it would stay warm. The rice and the hummus were put in separate storage containers with lids. Finally, the salad was given its own container. This far exceeded my expectations for takeout. I have eaten at Taziki‘s several times and always enjoyed the food, but had never gotten takeout before. Their chicken kebabs are very flavorful and I love the Greek salad too! This experience definitely makes me want to go back. That extra effort they took really made a difference!“

“Changing my review because surprisingly Tazikis is one of the few businesses that takes customer feedback and tries to improve. They have the BEST food and their service has improved. Their balsamic and hummus are so good. Thankfully we live close so can eat it frequently“

“Absolutely love the salmon kabobs they have on Friday! Nice to sit outside on the covered patio and enjoy all the yummy gluten free options they have!“

“We had a great experience here and will definitely be coming back!

We visited on a Tuesday around 6:10 PM, and it was calm and not too crowded. The atmosphere was relaxed with soft music, which made it really enjoyable. The ordering style is similar to places like CAVA or Subway — you choose what you want, and they prepare it fresh for you to take to your table or go.

We ordered the Lebanese Plate, which came with tabbouleh salad, hummus, jasmine chicken, falafel, and pita bread. Everything was delicious. The tabbouleh was especially surprising — even if you’re not usually a big parsley fan, it was fresh and flavorful. The hummus was smooth, the chicken was well seasoned, and the falafel was very good.

We also got a falafel bowl that included falafel, chickpeas, basmati rice, and a fresh cucumber and tomato salad. The chickpeas were incredibly flavorful, almost like a stew, and the rice was perfectly cooked. Honestly, every component tasted fresh and well prepared.

We didn’t finish all the pita, but what we did eat was soft and tasty. Overall, the portions were satisfying, and the quality exceeded our expectations.

For now, this is a 5 out of 5 for us — we’re definitely coming back!“

“Amazing service! A clean and polished formal atmosphere. The spice balance and flavor of the food are truly wonderful. Their spicy garlic sauce was very good and the pita bread is very fresh. Everything felt warm and welcoming, and I truly enjoyed my time here. Definitely a place I’ll be coming back to!“
