15 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Marlboro

“4.5 ⭐️ I came here with my husband on a Saturday night and we loved it! We didn’t know what to expect. Also we pulled into a strip mall and were a little weary to say the least. Ended up being fantastic! We ordered the cold mixed platter, phyllos (beef). They give you a ton of pita lasting into the meal. I had the combo of falafel, chicken shish, rice. And he had lamb, beef shish saitain style(? Maybe misspelled). Everything was so delicious. No ‘funky’ pieces of any meat, very good portions. I liked the falafel but wish I doubled in chicken. Dessert - u would highly recommend the lava cake.The service is so friendly. Our waitress Toni was patient to explain the menu to us. And any person who helped or dropped off food was very nice.We will absolutely be back here. Also note it is BYOB. Nice atmosphere, clean and style was more upscale than I expected.“

“I have been going to Grill Point about once a month for the past 2+ years, and I don't remember being disappointed a single time. I always get a lunch special, which is reasonably priced for the quantity and (especially) quality of food you get. The owners are really kind and involved in daily operations. The lunch appetizers are amazing, with options including homemade hummus, labne, and the best lentil soup I have ever had. The kebabs are tender and juicy, spiced to perfection. And the thin, Lebanese-style pita bread, which always comes fresh and warm, is to die for, hitting a sweet spot between soft and crispy. I have also tried their baklava before, and I have to give that a thumbs-up, as well!Overall, Grill Point is a hidden gem, truly a treasure of Route 9. Turn in at the U-Haul, and prepare to enjoy a truly wonderful Mediterranean meal.“

“Food was absolutely amazing. The wrap was delicious and toasted perfectly. The fries are the right amount of crispy and salty, some of the best I’ve ever had. If you’re shopping at Costco, make sure to stop here afterwards you will not regret it!Dietary restrictions: Halal, and lots of options. Waitresses are very accommodating.“

“This is a hidden gem. One of the best restaurants in NJ. Every dish I’ve had is absolutely delicious and thoughtfully prepared. The pappardelle with braised lamb is to die for. I’d have it as my last meal.Chef Ash is sweet as pie and when you come in you’re family. He is attentive and kind and you can tell he pays attention to detail. If you happen to be there on a day he has made his famous rice pudding you’re in for a treat! My goodness! I’m getting hungry just thinking about all the wonderful things on the menu! The octopus appetizer is another mouth watering dish!I think I’ll go book a table! ?“

“I cannot say enough great things about this restaurant. The food is amazing! Atmosphere is beautiful and the service is great. The mousakka, pastitchio, chicken kabobs were incredible. The bougatsa we had for dessert was out of this world! I really don’t think I’ve ever had a better meal than I did last night! Delicious and the owner is just delightful as well. I will definitely be back soon!“

“Wow, very nice dishes are served here. Just went for first time and had beef cubes in red wine sauce and orzo, delicious. The meat was high quality, perfectly cooked so it was coming apart easily with the fork. We tried feta sizzle or whatever it was called for appetizer, basically baked feta with some veggies around it, very tasty! My wife had falafel salad and daughter had chicken kebab, all enjoyed it. The options are huge, I normally finish my food but had to take half of it home for lunch next day. The place was full and you have to make reservation few days ahead to make sure you get a table, and it's definitely worth it. Very good Greek food place !“

“Super cute and stylish place. You can tell they put a lot of thought behind the atmosphere, the food is absolutely delicious and the staff were very sweet and added sides with our dinner and a pastry for dessert with our coffee for free. Prices were extremely reasonable. I loved the hospitality and am so happy my husband and i decided to stop by to eat dinner. We will be ordering from here again! exquisitely tasty and great ambiance. A must try!“

“Been here a few times, food is consistently great … spicy feta is a must on your GYROS (yee-ros)!This is family run business and they are all awesome!Parking: Depending on time of day, you may have to circle or walk far to get to restaurant (it’s worth the walk)“

“I was driving by and stopped to have dinner at this place. Not a fancy place but my meal was excellent.. I had stuffed eggplant and was totally satisfied. Service was fine, young lady didn't speak much English but that made the place so much more authentic. All the people eating here was Middle East and that how you now the food will be good“

“If you want good,authentic Greek without needing to go to a "high end" restaurant with "high end" pricing you found it! Jimmy's has always been consistently excellent with the food they have served me and my family. The service is fast and attentive and they do a good job making you feel welcome. The restaurant is nestled in a strip mall and when inside it is nicely decorated and comfortable. The Gyro platters and Mixed Grill platter are extremely good and the portion sizes are nice as well. The Lemon Potatoes are cooked perfectly and are addicting. My favorite side dish and if they come with the meals even better. The spinach rice is also highly recommended if you choose that as your side or have it with your meal. Always go back to this place as I haven't found a Greek restaurant close to them in the area.“

“I had dinner this past Saturday with 10 of my friends and everything was excellent. The Grilled octopus was cooked so perfectly we had to order an additional 2 more after we finished our original appetizers! All around the food was delicious. My friend is still raving about her stuffed chicken, she said it was light and airy not heavy at all, I remember she didn't leave any to go to waste! The ambience is very cool & they staff is super nice. Jeannette was continuously checking to see if we needed anything throughout the night. then we finished the night off with some dancing and drinks at the bar. Highly recommend and will be back!“
