50 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Tenafly

“Great food, very good service with a smile 😃“

“When I am in town I frequent this establishment as often as possible. They provide the best mediterranean food on the East Coast. The service is impeccable. The food is out of this world. Thank you so much for being around.“

“Everything is wonderful, the grilled octopus is especially delicious.“

“The best Albanian food in NY😋👌“

“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.“

“Delicious! Friendly service.“

“We LOVE this place. My partner and I were visiting NYC for our Babymoon and had heard Florentin was delicious, but we were blown away. Not only was the food fantastic (we had steak frites), the service was impeccable. Sammy was an incredible host that made our night even more enjoyable!! He was welcoming, fun, and generous. As my partner and I were celebrating, he made us feel so special and taken care of by providing us with mint tea & tiramisu that was to DIE FOR. Literally, I would give anything for more of that tiramisu! Thank you so much to the staff at Florentin, and a very big thank you to Sammy for a wonderful experience! We can’t wait to return“

“I tried their salta, which is a sort of vegetable stew. It was excellent, served the right way in the traditional bowl with the right kind of bread. It isn't meant to be a fine dining experience, more like the ones you find all over Yemen. I'll go back and try some of their other yemeni dishes...and you should, too!“

“The food is delicious. Very courteous and friendly staff. Definitely recommend!“

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

“Went here for brunch for NYC Restaurant week and did not disappoint!! Great service, delicious food and yummy drinks!! Will definitely come back!! Such a cozy cute atmosphere too!!“

“A Beautiful restaurant, great food very authentic, the Burek with beef is amazing, the Fasule with sausage is a must try, the decor is very cozy, you must finish with a delicious tres leqe. Will come back definitely to try more dishes. Keep up the great work guys.“

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

“Aden was an incredible server.
The food was out of this world! The flavors blended together seamlessly! The riblets and the lemon Cole slaw, and the chimichurri was the best I’ve had yet!!

And btw you’ll thank me later but the solan ice cream must be what the manna tasted like 3300 years ago“

“A must-visit spot for anyone craving a little taste of Turkey! 🇹🇷 We absolutely loved the mantı. The mezes served alongside the food were amazing, and the mixed grill platter was super satisfying. A special thanks to Mr. İnan for his warm hospitality and great service. Everything was wonderful, and we had an amazing experience!“

“Bella’s kitchen is absolutely delicious. The food is fresh, creative and so good. The portions are a nice size and the staff is warm and friendly. I took two of my friends there this weekend, and they absolutely felt the same way. I highly recommend Bella’s.kitchen.“

“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! 🫡“

“Consistently quality, with outstanding flavor. Honest, authentic dishes, and delicious desserts. BYOB.“

“Great food, recommend.
Grilled octopus was delicious, tender and smooth; not salty at all, grilled just right. Vegetables were tender and yummy.
Calf liver was juicy and flavorful, not dry.
The manti ravioli was great, unique with the garlic yogurt sauce.
Lamb stew was good, some pieces were tough but flavorful.
Steak was served on a cutting board and was great, paired perfectly with the dipping tzatziki and grilled vegetables.

Atmosphere was cute, decor and wall detailing seemed accurate for this Mediterranean grill. Decent amount of seating but space on the smaller side, only one bathroom.

Service was great, attentive and friendly.
Buon Appetito, Piatto Pulito 😋“

“very fast customer service“

“Delicious food! The chopped salad was very fresh and tasty, and the chicken kebab was super juicy and full of flavor. I must come back for more!“

“Awesome untapped Happy Hour! $1 oyster, great tapa style ! Great wine !“

“We either ordered the wrong things or it was an off night for this restaurant because our experience was nothing like what other reviewers say. Restaurant was so noisy that we had to shout to our table companions all evening. The imam bayaldi was oversalted and underflavored and pine nuts doled out as if they were diamonds. The shrimp was hard, dry, overcooked, oversalted and flavorless sitting on a bed of gloppy watery tomatoes. Half the lamb kabobs were ok and half were nothing but gristle. Servers were very pleasant, and helpful with wine selection but the wait for our dishes seemed interminable. What was good -- very good --the rice with the lamb kabobs, the rice pudding and the coffee. But too much money for bad (sorry, but that's what it was) food. As I said, maybe we ordered the wrong dishes or maybe it was just an off night.“

“Really good food and service. Falafel and garlic is sauce is out of this world.“

“An awesome experience. Great food and very attentive service. Will be back ❤️“

“Simon the waiter was excellent, after speaking with owner about our concerns..Everything was corrected . I look forward in returning next week“

“Went in late and felt so bad about coming so close to their closing time and Cris and Sandra were so kind to cook up Falafel and hook me up with my late dinner. I was having such a bad day and they were so kind and made my night!!! Shout out to them, they deserve a raise. Truly exceptional service and food 10/10 recommend.“

“Okay people one dish i had was so good first time trying fried liver, 😵 and let me tell you it was so good 👍 very happy the waiter told me to try it. And I recommend everyone to try it.
I also had lamb dish that was very fresh and tasty 😋 along with Turkish beer 🍺 sitting in the back for the skyline view makes for great dinning experience.
This restaurant know how please. When im in the area im definitely eating here. Thanks for the meals with superb service.
Cheers“

“First time here. Been hearing about Circle Hummus from a few friends and clients, so my wife and I stopped in today. Friendly, and very chill atmosphere. That was one of the most satisfying falafel platters we’ve had. Zucchini pancakes as an appetizer was perfect, too. Great portion, huge flavor. I don’t understand some of the dumb, negative reviews on here, so don’t go off of that. Come and see/try for yourself.“

“We sat outside. Our party was served quickly and efficiently. Food was very good.“

“Great food! I had the double cheeseburger which was a bit lacking in terms of flavor but I’ve heard their kebabs are much better. I’ll go back some other time to try the kebabs because the restaurant was great overall. Good service, really great prices. The only issue was the atmosphere but can’t complain for the price. Very competitive and a great option.“

“Great food, beautiful presentation, amazing taste, and generous portions! This is easily the best shawarma I’ve had in the U.S. The flavors are authentic and bring back the taste of the Middle East without having to travel there.

The location is convenient with parking available, the service is excellent, and the staff is friendly and welcoming. Everything from the food to the overall experience was great. The Shawarma Station is definitely a place I’ll be coming back to. Highly recommended!“

“a great experience . high quality food“

“We ordered food for a large work party and couldn’t be happier! Everything was perfect! Not only was the food excellent but the customer service and attention to detail was exceptional. Muhammad made sure that everything was exactly the way we wanted. He went above and beyond to communicate with us about preferences and party needs. I must also commend the delivery driver who was very helpful and polite. Everyone was impressed and very satisfied with the meal. We will definitely be ordering from here again. Thank you Muhammad for your time and hard work!“

“Jap konsideraten dhe rekomandimin me te larte per Nana’s Kitchen ne adresen 1809 Hone ave, Bronx NY per varietete e shumllojshme te ushqimeve tradicionale Shqiptare, per te cilat une se bashku me nje grup shokesh prej 15 vetash shijuam fundjaven e shkuar. Gjeta pas 23 vjetesh ku pergatisin ushqimin ne taven e balte, e po ashtu provuam mish qengji te pjekur, pace, qofte te zgares, sallate fshati e buken qe ne shqiptaret e duam shume qe e pergatisnin vete si dhe u embelsuam me bakllavane plot shije. Sherbimi ishte shembullor dhe lokali ishte i dekoruar me shije duke ruajtur traditen Shqiptare. Falenderojme pronarin Landi Kodra per kenaqesine qe na dha per disa ore ne restorantin e tij. Se shpejti TV Alba Life do te sjelle edhe nje kronike me te plote rreth ketij restorani dhe pershtypjet edhe te klienteve te tjere.“

“My kids and I love this place and keep going back. The food is consistently great and the staff is always so nice, patient, accommodating and helpful.“

“We’ve been to Sofra Cafè twice now and will be back soon—it has a nice, cozy atmosphere, the food is delicious, and the staff is so attentive and friendly! We recently went for my daughter’s birthday, and they made it so memorable for her! Would recommend Sofra to anyone looking for delicious, authentic Albanian food and a great experience all around.“
