50 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Hoboken

“Nice Place“

“Decided to take a chance on a Google recommendation. It was in ,proximity to my work so I took a walk. Glad that I did. I ordered the Swarma sandwich, a side of Falafel, and pistachio baklava (to satisfy my greedy spirit). Everything 10 out of 10. Very fresh. You know how some restaurants over fry the falafel, and it's like a little rock, well not here!!! I highly recommend- the quality of food will not disappoint.“

“A very nice place to check out if you’re into mediterranean cuisine! Excellent vegetarian options and delicious food. But if you’re someone who enjoys good service like me then this is not the place. after being sat down for 15 mins the server gave the menu. After reminding 3 times, we finally got water which was bottled and we were not told about I assumed they would bring tap water and on top of that they will randomly put 15% or 18% tip irrespective of party size. Waiting for menu for 15 mins and then waiting for water not sure what kind of service one is getting and to top it off getting the drinks ordered post meal! Again if you’re a foody then this a good place to try but not for the service.“

“My family and I were visiting from out of town and looking for a quick bite and happened upon this place and we were NOT DISAPPOINTED!!!

My wife and I both had platters and our son had the new bun-less chicken sandwich and all three were amazing! Fresh veggies and quality chicken and lamb meat 😋.

We were all very happy and will definitely make it our business to eat here again when we come back!“

“Took my husband here for his 64th birthday dinner on a recommendation and was not disappointed! This gem checked all the boxes in my book! We will definitely be coming back!! Thanks to the great bartender and the owners who went out of there way to make sure everything a that Carlos had an amazing experience!“

“Brunch & dinner options delicious 😋“

“Food was delicious! Fresh and unique! Loved it all!“

“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.“

“Casual, friendly atmosphere,eclectic menu, looking forward to my next visit“

“interior was. ute, service was great and the food was amazing. they actually live up to the hype and it has now easily become a fave restaurant of mine! the mackerel toast was top tier and that’s coming from someone that doesn’t eat mackerel like that.

we also enjoyed the black miso cod a lot. it was very soft and had a nice smokey flavor when you’re taking a bite. highly recommend ordering it.

the hiramasa was also a favorite. the flavor profile was 10/10 but i wish they gave more slices of fish cause 4 pieces feels like JAIL. minimum should be 6 imo

we got the chicken and their striped bass special as well and while those are good i think they’re not MUST orders though still very delicious. my top 3 would be mackerel toast, hiramasa and the black cod“

“The fluke ceviche is a miracle. The pomegranate and fluke combination simply explodes in the mouth. The Basmati rice a triumph. Who knew crispy scallions could do this? The dirty chai crème brûlée orgasmic alongside the coconut sorbet... incredible!!“

“We passed by this restaurant last week on our way to Irish Rep Theater and decided to give it a try. What a wonderful find! It is a charming restaurant with an attractive open kitchen and nice counter to watch the action. Tables are well spaced and comfortable. From the moment we sat down our server, Milos, could not have been more hospitable. He knew the menu well and was helpful with suggestions on both food and wines. He was professional and efficient and welcoming. The food was outstanding. They have a happy hour with delicious oysters and a nice variety of spreads and other small plates. A meal could easily be made at happy hour. The food was beautifully plated and delicious and of note the sauteed shrimp were perfectly cooked. There is much more on the menu we would like to try. We will be returning with a larger party next time to share many delicious plates. A wonderful addition to our NYC favorite spots.“

“Amazing food and warm, friendly staff.“

“Cozy atmosphere and fine dining“

“Delicious food and cocktails“

“Food was amazing for my cousins birthday. I only wish that the steak portions were a bit larger for the cost.
Hangersteak did take an hour half to be plated. Seated at 530 steak came at 715.
Salmon was a little under for my liking and was taking off the bill with no issues. Friendly waitress same girl that did my anniversary dinner there.
Hands down some of the best food around“

“Melissa and James create soul food with modern twist -- with big flavors! I visited P&C multiple times already, with family, friends and work colleagues and highly recommend it to anyone who is looking to eat modern American with a lot of love. 🍷🍸🍹Their cocktails are equally amazing and delicious, they also have a fantastic wine selection and their freshly baked Pita is a MUST! Please do go and visit P&C to also support the local restaurant community -- they deserve it! 🥰🍾🥙“

“Amazing food and great atmosphere. The grilled kebab was very flavorful and perfectly cooked, and the fresh salad and grilled vegetables were delicious. Everything tasted fresh and high quality. The staff was very welcoming and friendly, making the experience even better. Definitely a place I would come back to again. Highly recommended. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Yemeni Restaurant hit all the right spots — full 5 stars! The food was outstanding: tender, perfectly spiced mandi chicken, rich saltah stew, fresh haneeth lamb, and the best honey-drizzled malawah bread. Everything tasted homemade and full of flavor.
Service was warm and quick — friendly staff who explained the dishes and kept everything flowing smoothly. Atmosphere is cozy and casual: simple décor with welcoming vibes, great for a relaxed meal.
Perfect authentic Yemeni spot — great value and generous portions. Highly recommend for anyone craving real Middle Eastern comfort food in the city!“

We had the best server we could have asked for named, Martina, she was friendly and had a great sense of humor, Her menu knowledge was excellent, She recommended the Duck and Short Ribs, which were excellent. Full of flavor. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a great dining experience with great food and nice, friendly staff. Lloyd Hartford“

“Nice Mediterranean spot, might want a reservation as it is a bit small. Excellent dessert selections and pastries. We enjoyed the calamari, hummus, and the mixed grill and decided the lamb chops were the best part. All of it was delicious but I would order just lamb chops next time, the mixed grill is a nice way to try several meats. The hummus and pita were very good as was the calamari and the sauce it was served with was very nice as well.“

“Incredible opportunity to listen to fantastic music!“

“Delicious food, amazing staff, and a great venue.

Every single staff member here is amazing. Franck is a ROCKSTAR and made our meal lovely.

In terms of food, the dip sampler platter was so good and came with endless bread. Patatas bravas, salad verde, and beef kebabs were all perfectly seasoned. The cocktails we had (Neon Lights and Amaro Sour) were both delicious.

We also had a food allergy (dairy free) in our group and staff was fantastic with helping us order and flagging any sauces she needed to avoid.“

“Everything on the menu is to die for 🫀 delicious & feel good food always always. + THE CEVICHE“

“Absolutely delicious. Highly recommend the food at 46. Highlights: lentil soup, tzatziki, hummus, and pita. Kebabs too. Seriously everything was amazing!“

Among its endless culinary options, this particular restaurant stands out for the exquisite balance of its dishes, each one perfectly aligned with the freshness of its ingredients and the vibrancy of its tasty composition. The flavours here seem to orbit within a delicate spectrum of taste, offering guests a sensory experience that feels both refined and alive. In a modest space, you'll find an unexpected gem of gastronomic artistry, a place that reminds you of the reason why New York remains a capital of culinary creativity. I highly recommend this place for anyone seeking a meal that delights not just the palate, but the spirit.“

“Brooklyn Noosh - Persian / Iranian Restaurant | Diner stands out from others. I stumbled across this pleasant spot on Yelp. Everything is delicious. From my initial visit, the people at Brooklyn Noosh - Persian / Iranian Restaurant | Diner recognize me and stay alert to my needs. I think this place is superb!“

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

“Excellent food and awesome service. Great place to spend an evening outside. And the people watching...“

“I’m glad I got to try this restaurant. Located right next to the S train, Hart’s is a seafood, olive oil, simple menu focused eatery.

I appreciated the quality of the olive oil and the bread. The lamb burger was pretty damn good too. The tomato salad was one of the best I’ve had. A bit too pricey for the food and quantity, but hey, I’d come back again.“

“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.“

“We had a great experience at Dar. The lamb was incredibly tender and literally fell off the bone, making it one of the highlights of the meal. The lentil soup was also very tasty—rich, comforting, and full of flavor. The paella was excellent as well, perfectly cooked and very satisfying.

Our server, Cece, was attentive, friendly, and helpful throughout the meal, which made the experience even better. The service overall was great, and everything came out in a timely manner. I would definitely come back again for both the food and the service.“

“Fresh and nice food , and I am a chef ... I was looking for healthy choices at late night and I am very happy now that I found this place.. finally, fresh healthy food at least night and at a reasonable price and generous portions.
Thanks Marcos!!!!!!“

“I went to Ella Social for the first time on Friday, December 19, 2025. The food was superbly seasoned and delicious! The service was top notch and the ambience was great.“

“The Most Authentic Egyptian Food in NYC
If you’re looking for REAL Egyptian flavor, you have to try Falafel Bites in Brooklyn! I just went, and honestly… this is the closest taste to home I’ve had in the U.S. Every single dish was fresh, flavorful, and made with true Egyptian soul.

The falafel was perfectly crispy, the koshary tasted exactly like downtown Cairo, and the tahini sauce was on another level. The staff were so warm and welcoming, specially cherry it felt like visiting family.

I’m telling you — this is the best Egyptian restaurant in New York, hands down. If you want authentic Egyptian food that brings you back to the streets of Cairo and Alexandria, this is the place. Highly recommended! 🌟🇪🇬“

“I have been to Malka several times since their Dumbo location opened and each experience was amazing. The food is fresh and delicious, and the atmosphere warm and welcoming. Good vibes all around -- highly recommend whether you're going out just for drinks or a whole meal.“

“Comfortable. Clean. Friendly staff. Good service.“
