50 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Cresskill

“Great Lunch… Izzy our waiter went above and beyond to make sure we were enjoying our lunch. We go here frequently and always a good meal and very accommodating.“

“We went to Samdan Mediterranean Restaurant on our last day in New York. We went with 2 kiddos under 10 and ordered the chicken nuggets for them. For the adults, we ordered falafel, tabouli and hummus for an appetizer, and both were very good, had lots of flavor though the portions were smaller than we expected and we needed to ask for the Nan bread.

We followed up with the sultan platter for the table, and it came with rice, we also ordered a bruschetta salad. The portion for the platter was more than enough for 4 adults, and it had an assortment of meats, including lamb, chicken. We accompanied the meal with a bottle of red wine and found the pricing and portion sizes to be good for our group.

Overall, great atmosphere and place to have a nice dinner out for a group of adults.“

“Excellent quality food..easily the best greek/Mediterranean restaurant around. We had babaganoush, sauteed octopus and mixed grill for two. The portions are just right and there was not a single dish that wasnt 10/10. Great service. The place was quiet around 6pm on a Friday and then just exploded with customers. We are happy we just discovered this little gem. And the cherry on top - very inexpensive for what you get. It's tough to beat combo“

My wife and I got a bowl and we both loved it. If you are looking for a counter style Mediterranean place to eat this is a fantastic choice! All the food is made fresh. My wife ordered pita chips and falafel on the side and both were made fresh when we ordered. The pita chips were thick and super crispy. The falafel was incredibly moist too. Highly recommend!“

“Jap konsideraten dhe rekomandimin me te larte per Nana’s Kitchen ne adresen 1809 Hone ave, Bronx NY per varietete e shumllojshme te ushqimeve tradicionale Shqiptare, per te cilat une se bashku me nje grup shokesh prej 15 vetash shijuam fundjaven e shkuar. Gjeta pas 23 vjetesh ku pergatisin ushqimin ne taven e balte, e po ashtu provuam mish qengji te pjekur, pace, qofte te zgares, sallate fshati e buken qe ne shqiptaret e duam shume qe e pergatisnin vete si dhe u embelsuam me bakllavane plot shije. Sherbimi ishte shembullor dhe lokali ishte i dekoruar me shije duke ruajtur traditen Shqiptare. Falenderojme pronarin Landi Kodra per kenaqesine qe na dha per disa ore ne restorantin e tij. Se shpejti TV Alba Life do te sjelle edhe nje kronike me te plote rreth ketij restorani dhe pershtypjet edhe te klienteve te tjere.“

“We had the pleasure of having my daughter‘s bridal shower at Aurora restaurant this past weekend. We were so happy with everything! First of all, the staff was so easy to work with and so helpful. The food was delicious. We had a buffet of nine items that everything tasted great and everybody loved it. They were even able to accommodate five people who were gluten-free. The atmosphere was beautiful. The private room was able to accommodate seven tables for me plus a food table and a dessert table and a table for presents. The staff helped us set up and helped us bring things from our car. The beautiful flower wall when you walk in was a perfect backdrop for the photographer. I highly recommend Aurora for a party or for dinner. The actual restaurant and bar is just as great. Thankyou Ennis and staff for a memorable afternoon!!! I could not have asked for anything more!“

What stood out the most was the personalized touch Sharma added to our visit. The girl in the cashier checked on us regularly, ensured our orders were perfect, and made us feel like valued guests. The entire staff was friendly, but Sharma’s exceptional service made this visit unforgettable.

I highly recommend Tasty Choice Restaurant for anyone looking for amazing food and top-notch service. I’ll definitely be coming back!“
