50 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Nutley

“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!“

“Absolutely loved Pita Bowl! Everything was incredibly fresh, flavorful, and made with high-quality ingredients. The staff were super friendly, and the whole place felt clean and welcoming. I really liked how customizable the bowls are — you can create exactly what you want. Generous portions and amazing taste. Definitely one of the best spots for a quick, healthy, and satisfying meal. Highly recommend!“

“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.“

“Delicious food and amazing service. Can’t beat the lunch special. Excellent!“

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

“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! 🫡“

“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!“

“Best place to eat a salad Nieve was the best.“

“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.“

“Beautiful corner restaurant with great lighting and even better food. The Georgian appetizers were all hits (especially the fried mushroom salad, beetroot hummus, and imeruli), and the service was diligent and warm. Super close to NJPAC, making it a great choice for a pre-theater dinner. Can’t wait to return!“

“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!“

“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.“

“This food was so good, my family and I ascended all the way to the sky. These guys are good. Thanks Nicholas!“

“Shlomo's kindness and generosity is endless! Not only has he offered to participate in a PTO sponsored dine to donate today, but when our school staff ordered lunch to support, he refused payment and insisted the payment be donated to the PTO in full! He gets plenty of love and all is deserved! Thank you Shlomo and Gyro Grill for not only delicious food but for your continued acts of love in the Wayne community!“

“PIDDE DELICIOUS PLACE IN NEW JERSEY;
I’ve been living in the U.S. for 16 years, and the thing I’ve missed and loved the most is lahmacun. After trying it at PIDDE, I’ve never had lahmacun anywhere else again. At other places I’ve tried over the years, I always experienced heartburn afterward — but never at PIDDE.

It’s a place you can visit with your family and feel completely at ease. The food is delicious, the staff is friendly, and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming.🙏“

“Thank you Nouri Cafe for your always great tasteful Middle Eastern food and your kind working staff. God bless you all 🥰🙏“

“I got the kabab platter, a drink and baklava. The platter was good, my favorite was the kofta. The baklava wasn’t too sweet but had a faint taste of coconut that im not used to, overall I would recommend this place! The customer service was nice and the restaurant is clean and filled with beautiful art!“

“Fresh and delicious Thank you !💜💜💜“

“Just had the Monday thru Friday lunch special and added feta to my salad. With a soda it was just under $20. Absolutely delicious.“

“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“

“Had lunch here today with a friend. Ordered my shawarma bowl and mentioned to the girl at the cashier that my throat hurt and I was thinking of hot tea. She put together a cup of tea with fresh ginger and honey — so thoughtful!! And the food is top notch.“

“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.“

“Great Pide and hospitality - Aug 22, 2024“
