17 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Somerville

“Kyma is the reason we drive 30 minutes for amazing authentic Greek cuisine. Our appetizer/small plate of smoked eggplant dip & lamb empanada with herb mint sauce was a wonderful start. Sea bass in tomato broth with potatoes & Aegean shrimp dish were perfectly prepared. We had to have the baklava with vanilla ice cream (no pic as we attacked it!). The ambience, service and food made for a beautiful meal!“

“So grateful to Café Picasso for making my birthday dinner last Friday night a wonderful experience! The food was absolutely delicious and the service was above and beyond! It's dimly lit inside which made reading the menu a bit challenging. However, everything we did order made up for it! I highly recommend the Frittura di Calamari for an appetizer. The following dishes we ordered were spectacular! Rigatoni alla Vodka, Penne alla Grotta, Gnocchi Alessandra, Norwegian Salmon (special), Penne al Forno, Spaghetti alla Carbonara and the Pollo alla Francese! It is a BYOB establishment, luckily there is a wine and spirits store next door. My family will definitely be returning to this beautiful gem in the heart of Somerville!“

“For a $1000 meal I expect flawless service and unfortunately that was not the case. Drinks ordered during dinner arrived while eating desert. Two times they brought over the wrong drinks and one order they completely forgot.. Also when waiter brings over food he should know who ordered what and not have to ask again. Food was good but service needs improvement if those are the prices you will be charging.“

“Amazing food! Thank you so much for our dinners! Everything is delicious“

“Sahara Restaurant is an absolute gem! From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with warm hospitality and a cozy, inviting atmosphere. The menu offers a rich selection of Middle Eastern and Mediterranean dishes, each one bursting with authentic flavor. The hummus is creamy and perfectly seasoned, the grilled meats are tender and juicy, and the freshly baked pita is next-level good.

What really sets Sahara apart is the attention to detail—not just in the food, but in the service as well. The staff is friendly, attentive, and clearly passionate about what they do. Whether you’re stopping in for a casual meal or celebrating a special occasion, Sahara delivers a dining experience that feels both personal and memorable. Highly recommended!“

“I have eaten here multiple times and the food is consistently good and the prices are very fair. The portions were substantial and the specials were enticing. The deserts were very good and worth the calories down to the coppachino. Ambiance was like eating in a family dining room and servers were excellent. It's BYOB. What more can you ask for in a neighborhood gem.“
