50 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Garfield

“The food and service is excellent. It is always an enjoyable evening.“

“Here's the review Spencer wrote for you: My family and I just visited to celebrate my grandsons birthday- we like to get a bunch of plates and share family style and this menu was perfect for that. You have to get mezze and extra bread (must try the kubane). We also ended up getting three orders of the shishbarak for the six of us, it is way too good! I got the salmon for my entree which was cooked to perfection and beautifully seasoned. Spencer our server recommended the silan and the cheesecake for dessert so we shared those and boy were they something special- I can’t pick a favorite! He brought us a candle and we got some great pictures. I can’t recommend this restaurant enough.“

“We LOVE this place. My partner and I were visiting NYC for our Babymoon and had heard Florentin was delicious, but we were blown away. Not only was the food fantastic (we had steak frites), the service was impeccable. Sammy was an incredible host that made our night even more enjoyable!! He was welcoming, fun, and generous. As my partner and I were celebrating, he made us feel so special and taken care of by providing us with mint tea & tiramisu that was to DIE FOR. Literally, I would give anything for more of that tiramisu! Thank you so much to the staff at Florentin, and a very big thank you to Sammy for a wonderful experience! We can’t wait to return“

“it’s a treat to eat at Miznon. Great food! Wonderful service and a fun atmosphere too!“

“Where do I even begin? The pita? Perfect texture and taste. The cherry tomatoes? Obviously fresh, juicy, and sourced from a great farm. The romain? Plentiful and CRISP. The Dill and Taziki sauce? Also VERY fresh, has a citrus kick somewhere, and seems to be made fresh as well. Because it doesn't taste like a store bought sauce filled with preservatives. The hummus? That might actually be where the citrus is from. However, the hummus is not overly salty! You can actually taste the Chickpeas and they use good ingredients as well as olive oil for the hummus too! The chicken? Is in NO way shape or form dry and it's actually seasoned! It's juicy and normal is it overcooked. The olives? Brothers and sisters I HATE olives by themselves, rarely on certain foods. But these olives are not overpowering and stealing the flavor profile, it just adds more depth to the flavor bomb of the Greek chicken Pita! The feta? What could be bettah? Seriously though if you can see this picture you should've seen that they don't skip on the feta either. Again the flavor is ALL the way there but not overpowering. While the texture is almost creamy. Probably with assistance from the sauce but still, it's not overly dry! 10/10 Would recommend & I will be back! Now the facility was spotless, the cleanest "fast food" I've ever seen. The staff? Phenomenonal, personable, kind, attentive to details, and downright superstars that make that place run like clockwork! Wooooo wo weeeee wo!!! If you haven't been here then you've got to go!! Moderate prices, exceptional ingredients, lovely staff, and clean facilities(where the staff actually care like the NW Expressway location in OKC). I'm out, ty for listening to my Ted talk! 🫡“

“Well worth the visit! We decided to go for Mediterranean last night and a great option was Harmony in Franklin Lakes. Really lovely, spacious, pretty restaurant. The owner is always there to greet everyone and to make sure everything is to your liking. This time we tried the zucchini pancakes and they we delicious! Light, tender and flavorful, with a great sauce! We shared as we can get full easily. For the main course I have the Dorado and I have to say, impeccably prepared. Full of amazing flavors and really moist even though I decided to have it filleted. Next time I will have it whole as I enjoy my fish that way, but truly outstanding either way. My partner has lamb gyro and it did not disappoint. Lots of great flavor and a great deal to enjoy. We finished with Turkish coffee and tea and a flan-like dessert with cinnamon on top. Soooo good! Wait staff were great and the chef came out to see how we enjoyed the meal. Just a lot of attention to your comfort and enjoyment. Highly recommend for quality AND pricing. FYI, it's BYOB.“

“I had a really great experience at CAVA:) The food was fresh, flavorful, and everything tasted amazing. There were so many options to choose from, and everything was well prepared and presented nicely. The restaurant was clean, the atmosphere was nice, and my order was prepared quickly. Overall, I had a great experience and would definitely come back again. Great food and great service!“

“I went there with my boyfriend and his father during a trip in NYC and we weren’t disappointed. My boyfriend had the kofta kobab which had a very meaty texture. His father had the wild mushroom kobab and I took the braised "beef". Everything was delicious, including the dessert (ekmek kataifi) which wasn’t too sweet, just perfect 😊“

“The BEST place - I always order the 4 options of amazing tapas dips/ spreads with pita. Perfect when having people over, and always a hit at a potluck party. (And surprisingly affordable!!!) The atmosphere is romantic/ fun and yet still easy and casual.“

“Amizigh Food Truck was hired for our company picnic and everyone loved the food! They had a staff of 3 friendly workers and the line moved fast. I had a combination Moroccan chicken, Shawarma, and Falafel combination bowl that was so good! The burritos also looked great, as did the vegetarian options. So glad my company chose them!“

“We had a wonderful experience at Hayati Lounge, and a big part of that was thanks to Sami. From the moment we arrived, he was welcoming, friendly, and incredibly attentive. He made sure everything was perfect, checked on us throughout our meal, and provided excellent recommendations. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, and Sami's outstanding customer service made our visit even more enjoyable. It's rare to find someone who genuinely cares about making guests feel valued, and Sami definitely does. We will definitely be coming back!“

“We had the most wonderful and delicious lunch at Atlantis this afternoon. I had the branzino lunch special with lentil soup and my sister had the chicken gyro lunch special also with lentil soup. We ate every last bite! The lunch special (M-F from 11-3) is a great deal with a reasonably portioned 3-course meal and a beverage for $25! The decor and ambiance was inviting and warm. The restaurant was clean and neat. The server was attentive and responsive. The food was savory and delicious. We highly recommend this gem.“

“Simon the waiter was excellent, after speaking with owner about our concerns..Everything was corrected . I look forward in returning next week“
