13 Best Mediterranean Restaurants in Albany

“While passing through for a short visit to the UAlbany campus, we researched some healthy and affordable lunch options nearby. We are so glad we found Simone's! This place is so cute on the outside, and fast, affordable, and delicious on the inside! The portions were huge, the food was fresh, and the prices were competitive with chains like Chipotle or Panera. 5/5!“

“Such good fries- such great service- a gem in downtown“

“Probably the best chicken over rice I’ve had... I’m even putting this above halal guys in NYC. Not to mention great customer service, was given fried chicken while waiting for our food to come out 🙌🏻 seriously delicious. Great food and people! Will be coming back.“

“Delicious. Must go. Get that mantu!“

“Terrific food, great service!“

“Very good and fresh! I really dislike the mall, I also usually really dislike mall food court eats. However, really good Guatemalan taco place with empanadas, falafel and gyros!!!! Super nice people running the place, and best mall food court lunch you can imagine.

This place might actually bring me back to do shopping just to grab food, honestly. I noticed a GrubHub sign, to add.“

“We had a large order for an office party we had on Halloween and the pizza and wings were great! I placed my order with Lisa ahead of time and she was awesome. Our order was ready, in full, on time! Everyone loved the pizza (we ordered cheese, pepperoni, broccoli ricotta, chicken bacon ranch, and meat lovers). The wings were crispy with meat on them (we had mild, honey bbq, and garlic parm). I give them A++ and we will be ordering from them again in the future. Thanks again!“

“Best brunch ever come get bottomless mimosas“

“This is a MUST every time we travel down from Maine to visit friends. Amazing food, creative wine selection, and the BEST service. We are customers for life ❤️thank you Athos! Ali, (aka Bob Ross), keep on keeping on!“

“Best coffee in Albany, flavor and comfort guaranteed!“

“Food is simple but fresh and well prepared. We had Bolani which is like a thin crisp Samosa, falafel wrap and chicken over rice. Food came quickly, service was great and ingredients were very fresh. Homemade white sauce was excellent. Will definitely go back if we are in the area again“

“Wonderful service and outstanding food. I had swordfish that was incredible and my husband had salmon that was delicious. Fresh, wonderful veggies and the best and friendliest service.“
