50 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Harrison

“I luv it I would recommend Juicys💕💕💕“

“First time there for myself. My wife had been there recently for lunch. OMG, amazing. We started with their homemade, warm Pita with Babaganush (sp?). Awesome. I had their Arugala salad, which I like wherever I go. This was amazing as well. Then we had our entrees. None of us could finish our meals, they were so plentiful and delicious. We each took home doggy bags. We told them we couldn’t possibly eat desserts so we ordered some to go. They then brought out hot Turkish teas for us AND a plate of a custard for us to share. Delicious!!! WOW! This place jumped right up near the top of our list for favorite restaurants. We will definitely be back.“

“Went today for the first time, wonderful staff and the food was incredible. Great size portions, every part of our meal was delicious. Cannot wait to go back again. Well worth the ride from Ramsey. NJ“

“Excellent food & service at Rola’s. This was my 1st time there & everything was so good!“

“For dinner we when to RUMI and it was amazing! Appetizers absolutely delicious all our dinners were delicious fresh hot completely satisfied . And then we had complementary Turkish tea and we all had desserts which were absolutely delicious someone with a sweet tooth would love. Will definitely be returning waitstaff friendly courteous and willing to accommodate in any way.“

“Should be best best restaurants list in NJ!“

“This is an awesome restaurant. The food is excellent, the meat is top quality and the service r is warm and cozy.“

“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! 🫡“

And the prices were very reasonable for the quality you receive—great value all around. Highly recommend this place and will definitely be coming back!“

“The chicken shwarma and mint lemonade are DELICIOUS and so filling. Actually the best meal I literally eat this all the time. And the new place is so beautiful. The seating and decoration are very pretty. And the staff are so nice ! I went twice and one of the servers Litzie remembered my name :) which always feels nice. You can tell they work really hard to give a great experience every time you come.“

“This is a cool Georgian restaurant in Newark, NJ. I stopped by randomly after shopping for an event. I tried Adjaruli Khachapuri for the first time in my life. It was pretty interesting in how it was prepared but it was tasty. I also had the creamy garlic chicken and some wine. Great for a solo lunch date or just because.“

“The food is absolutely delicious! We ordered the mixed grill platter, and it was more than enough for two people. Everything was flavorful and perfectly cooked. The owner is incredibly kind and welcoming, which makes the experience even better. I’ve been here several times and keep coming back because the food and service are consistently excellent. Highly recommend!“

“Amazing service and food, absolutely delicious!!“

“Great experience at CAVA, in Springfield, NJ. The facility was exceptionally clean, and every employee was welcoming and friendly from the moment I walked in. The manager, Engel has built an outstanding team. He’s doing a fantastic job leading by example creating a positive environment. Remy and Preston super nice line members. Esther the cashier greeted me with such a calm and welcoming smile reminded me what great Customer Service is supposed to look like. I also have visited the Bridgewater location and unfortunately, it has a lot of room for improvement. The level of cleanliness, teamwork and Customer Service at Springfield is on a complete different level. Keep up the amazing work Springfield team.“

“Ok so I kept seeing social media posts about fufu and egusi soup. I was told there was a good place on Forest Ave but it unfortunately closed. Lo and behold, this place is right next to my work. I saw some iffy reviews on this place and I was a little hesitant to try it.

I was wrong! This place is delicious! I am adventurous with food in general but never had African food. I have to say, I crave this now. I crave it often. The egusi soup with spicy chicken is so flavorful and unctuous. I’m all about food being balanced as I eat it, such as white rice with salty/saucy/flavorful foods. So this was a real treat because the pounded yam is the perfect clean slate carb to dip into the flavorful/spicy egusi soup.

Now if you don’t want spicy, you can tell the owner. She asks if you want it spicy or not. And when I say spicy it is, makes my mouth water and your jaw tighten when you smell it. Just the right amount of heat for me.

Also the owner is so hard working and sweet! Please support local businesses, they need our business! Whenever I eat out for lunch, this is at the top of my list!“

“Tequila Bistro Hosted One Incredible Night for Team Ed Rodriguez We recently held a meet-and-greet for Assembly candidate Ed Rodriguez at Tequila Bistro in Elizabeth—and let’s just say, Ed raved about the food beforehand, and he wasn’t wrong. From the moment we stepped into the warm, inviting space—with its glowing string lights, rich Spanish tiles, and that cozy outdoor patio—it was clear this was more than just a restaurant. It was an experience. The crowd came for conversation, but the Mediterranean and Spanish flavors stole the show. From the perfectly grilled seafood to the paella that had people going back for seconds (and thirds), every bite was unforgettable. The crab-stuffed salmon? Game-changer. And then there’s the bar—a destination in itself. Sophisticated, generous, and buzzing with good energy. The sangria flowed, the handcrafted cocktails were on point, and the vibes matched the moment. The staff made us feel like family. They handled a busy room full of guests with warmth, precision, and genuine hospitality.“

“stopped in here today with my cousins .. the greeting was warm and friendly. I had the pork roll egg and chz on roll with the breakfast tators .. this place is awesome nice staff and great food .MUST TRY IT YOU WILL BE HOOKED ... 49TH AVE B“

“Kebab House was a great experience overall! The staff was super friendly and welcoming from the moment we came in. My friend and I weren’t completely sure what to order, and they took the time to help us understand the different options and pick something we’d enjoy.

I’m honestly not even sure exactly what dish I ended up getting, but whatever it was, it was delicious! Everything was flavorful, fresh, and satisfying, and I’d definitely be interested in coming back to try more of the menu.

The friendly service really stood out and made the experience even better. It’s always nice going somewhere where the staff is willing to help you out, especially when you’re unfamiliar with some of the dishes.

Overall, great food, great hospitality, and a really positive experience. Definitely recommend Kebab House, and I’ll be back!“

“Great Pide and hospitality - Aug 22, 2024“

“Had a terrible experience today. They gave me the wrong sandwich. Tried to call them to send me a new one but all you get is a voicemail. Emailed them and even messaged them on Instagram and they never responded. So I was stuck at work all day without any food or any reimbursement“

“Easily my favorite place in Nutley now, I'll be back for more Turkish tea, a whole pot if can be—and to try their Kazandibi dessert. An amazing breakfast selection till noon & lunch menu after till 4PM. Looking forward to many more visits!“

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

“Food is fresh & tasty. Staff are very nice too.“

“I have been a loyal customer for over 10 years and have always enjoyed the food here. Their green spicy sauce is outstanding, the portion sizes are generous, and the spicy chicken rice bowl has consistently been one of my favorite meals. I appreciate the quality protein and the value they provide.

Unfortunately, my experience today was disappointing. The chicken was noticeably saltier than usual, which affected the overall flavor of the meal. I know one of the longtime employees who has always been attentive to customer feedback, but he was not there today. Otherwise, I would have shared my concerns with him directly.

That said, this is the first time I have had an issue after many years of positive experiences. I am hopeful this was just an isolated incident and look forward to returning.“

“Best gyros that you can find on Staten Island!“
