50 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Flushing

“I’ve been in the restaurant industry for 6 years and have eaten at countless places, and rarely am I ever impressed. However this place blew me away. Everything tasted so fresh and flavorful to the point I kept eating way after I was full. The service was also incredible and the staff was super sweet! The prices were also great. I’m unfortunately from NC but i would drive all the way back to eat from here again.“

“Authentic Flavors and Warm Hospitality!
I had an incredible experience at Plateia GR! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with friendly smiles and a cozy, welcoming atmosphere that immediately set the tone for the evening.
The food was absolutely delicious — everything tasted fresh and authentically Greek. The grilled octopus was tender and perfectly seasoned, the meatballs were so moist and so good, and the gyro was delicious and full of flavor. The tzatziki and warm pita were the best I’ve ever had, and the galaktobouriko at the end of the meal was the perfect sweet finish.
What really stood out was the staff’s genuine hospitality — they took the time to explain the dishes and made sure we had everything we needed without ever feeling rushed.
If you’re looking for a place that serves real Greek cuisine with heart and care, this is it. I can’t wait to come back!“

“Great beer choice“

“The food was ok. No AC in the restaurant and muggy outdoor eating made it hard. I asked for no tomatoes or olives in my salad and she brought me a full plate of tomatoes in my salad so I didn’t eat it as I never return food. The place needs a good cleaning.“

“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.“

“Worth it! I got very lucky and was able to go two nights in a row and both nights were amazing. The staff is so friendly and the servers are fantastic (shoutout Mia & Dave)!! Food is amazing. Get the Cabbage - it is phenomenal!!! Also the Ricotta Toast!! Ambiance is also great 10/10.“

“The fluke ceviche is a miracle. The pomegranate and fluke combination simply explodes in the mouth. The Basmati rice a triumph. Who knew crispy scallions could do this? The dirty chai crème brûlée orgasmic alongside the coconut sorbet... incredible!!“

“Melissa and James create soul food with modern twist -- with big flavors! I visited P&C multiple times already, with family, friends and work colleagues and highly recommend it to anyone who is looking to eat modern American with a lot of love. 🍷🍸🍹Their cocktails are equally amazing and delicious, they also have a fantastic wine selection and their freshly baked Pita is a MUST! Please do go and visit P&C to also support the local restaurant community -- they deserve it! 🥰🍾🥙“

“Delicious food and cocktails“

“Cozy atmosphere and fine dining“

“Food was amazing for my cousins birthday. I only wish that the steak portions were a bit larger for the cost.
Hangersteak did take an hour half to be plated. Seated at 530 steak came at 715.
Salmon was a little under for my liking and was taking off the bill with no issues. Friendly waitress same girl that did my anniversary dinner there.
Hands down some of the best food around“

“Amazing food and great atmosphere. The grilled kebab was very flavorful and perfectly cooked, and the fresh salad and grilled vegetables were delicious. Everything tasted fresh and high quality. The staff was very welcoming and friendly, making the experience even better. Definitely a place I would come back to again. Highly recommended. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Came here for brunch a couple weeks ago and loved everything about it. The food was delicious, portion sizes large and quick service. I will for sure be back to try the entire dip offering but truly you’re not going to go wrong with whatever you order here.“

“Everything was great! The lamb chops are fantastic!“

“Hart's has quickly become one of my favorite spots in Brooklyn. I arrived right at opening (5:30pm) and was seated at the bar immediately. It's super convenient if you're coming off the A/C. The playlist was great and the vibe was calm and unhurried.

The food is where Hart's really shines. The roast oysters with vermouth butter and horseradish were the standout of the night, perfectly balanced with just the right amount of kick. The savoy cabbage with serrano ham and borlotti beans was homey and comforting. The clam toast with pancetta was deeply savory and something I'd come back for on its own. The seafood rice was the one dish that didn't quite land for me. Not bad, just the least memorable of the bunch.

Highly recommend“

“Yemeni Restaurant hit all the right spots — full 5 stars! The food was outstanding: tender, perfectly spiced mandi chicken, rich saltah stew, fresh haneeth lamb, and the best honey-drizzled malawah bread. Everything tasted homemade and full of flavor.
Service was warm and quick — friendly staff who explained the dishes and kept everything flowing smoothly. Atmosphere is cozy and casual: simple décor with welcoming vibes, great for a relaxed meal.
Perfect authentic Yemeni spot — great value and generous portions. Highly recommend for anyone craving real Middle Eastern comfort food in the city!“

“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!!“

“Every dish exudes the flavor of sunshine and sea breeze, and the soul of the Mediterranean is perfectly presented!😄😄“

“Brooklyn Noosh - Persian / Iranian Restaurant | Diner stands out from others. I stumbled across this pleasant spot on Yelp. Everything is delicious. From my initial visit, the people at Brooklyn Noosh - Persian / Iranian Restaurant | Diner recognize me and stay alert to my needs. I think this place is superb!“

“I attended a surprise party this Saturday evening. The cuisine was preselected, waiter service was excellent, should receive raises. The table arrangement was very poor. The party was downstairs in one of the private rooms. We were 25 people at one very long table, basically the length of the room, which made it difficult for guests to get around the seated persons at the head of the table on either side. Having two tables would have been a better arrangement, but one long table was not conducive for conversation since we were so far from the other end of the table. The food; not many complaints, I really didn’t have a problem. I didn’t have a lot of food, but it was delicious. The dessert, sorry not very good. Those Famous Crepes(palacinkes) sorry not that great. A lot of crepe and not a lot of filling. The dish was served with fruit, unfortunately this fruit was not in season, so the watermelon although it added color to the dish, upon tasting it, left much to be desired. Why not serve fruit that is in season? No offense to my party hosts who selected my menu for the evening, it didn’t lend itself to the 5 Star Reputation of Dubrovnik’s. I would like to make reservations and splurge on a dinner on my own, I have a feeling I would LOVE the experience! Btw, another plus was the parking!“

“We had a great experience at Dar. The lamb was incredibly tender and literally fell off the bone, making it one of the highlights of the meal. The lentil soup was also very tasty—rich, comforting, and full of flavor. The paella was excellent as well, perfectly cooked and very satisfying.

Our server, Cece, was attentive, friendly, and helpful throughout the meal, which made the experience even better. The service overall was great, and everything came out in a timely manner. I would definitely come back again for both the food and the service.“

“Fresh and nice food , and I am a chef ... I was looking for healthy choices at late night and I am very happy now that I found this place.. finally, fresh healthy food at least night and at a reasonable price and generous portions.
Thanks Marcos!!!!!!“

“We had a fiftieth birthday party here for two twin brothers. The patio out back is beautiful. The food was great and the waitstaff is wonderful. This is practically its own institution in Floral Park.“

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

“Comfortable. Clean. Friendly staff. Good service.“

“Best Turkish and Mediterranean restaurant in nyc. You have to try it.“

“Went with a friend for brunch last weekend. We both got the Jerusalem plate, except I subbed in hummus for the avo. The service was fantastic and I think I would have been happy ordering anything on the menu. Looking forward to heading back for another meal.“

“Delicious delicious food, really chill atmosphere and friendly service. It was or first time having serbian food, so we asked for recommendations and it was spot on. Recommend the sarma (cabbage rolls), cevapi (meat sausages) and the spinach&cheese burek. Note that it's a small place (there's 5 tables), so there might be a bit of a wait. Also, they sell their typical sauce (delicious!). Will definitely come back“

“This was my 2nd time here. What really made the experience today was my server, Afnan. She was very knowledgeable about the menu and all of her suggestions were spot on. Afnan was attentive without being overbearing. Excellent from start to finish.“

“Finally checked out Fatima's Grill and wow, the fusion concept is super creative! Everything is halal and the portions are massive — we got the shawarma crunch wrap (basically a loaded Crunchwrap Supreme with tender chicken shawarma, fries, and sauces) and a Hot Cheetos asada burrito. The crunch wrap was fun and crunchy, with good spice, and the burrito had that bold, cheesy kick from the Cheetos dust — definitely unique and Instagram-worthy. Also tried the chicken over rice platter; the rice was flavorful and the chicken juicy, though I wish the overall seasoning was a bit stronger/more consistent across the dishes.“

“The food is good and service is excellent. We had the price fixe“

“Delicious! Friendly service.“

“Incredible food and cocktails! Wonderful service!“

“Delicious 😋 food. Great ambiance. Wonderful servers.“

“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.“

“We have enjoyed Sea Salt on past visits. This time our order was pre cooked. We ordered medium rare cheeseburgers and we received warmed up versions with cheese not melted instead of the fresh cooked ones in the past. It was disappointing. The rest of lunch was great. Service was superb.“

“Great seafood nice people“

“My favorite Cava by far , every time I come Lorena takes care of me and is extremely nice , welcoming and helpful. She also welcomes every guest and treats everyone with respect. The place is also very clean i would recommend this Cava to everyone“

“One of the vest restaurants in NYC. The food is amazing and we are keep coming back over Andover.“

“Once I found out about this gem, I came back every week. The customer service is always friendly, helpful and warm. BUT THE FOOD THOUGH…. 🤤. They have great options and each of their dishes have not disappointed. The ambience is clean, quaint and relaxed. Great for a meetup, a break or to go on your own and get some work done. Love this place“

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

“I visited Yummy Tummy bakery for the first time today, with five other friends of mine to support a Black-owned business during Black History Month. The owner Melissa and Kaylan made the entire experience a delight. The two of them made sure we got all of our treats in a timely manner and treated us with such care. The sweets themselves were absolutely delicious. The fruity pebble cupcake particularly was the perfect amount of sweet, moist, and airy. If you’re in the neighborhood, I’d definitely recommend you stop by!“

“Care about quality food...Best of the best...“

“phenomenal food! Great accommodations, and the christmas display is everything they say!“

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

“Amazing experience!! I go here RELIGIOUSLY, no other restaurant compares. I’ve tried other places but always come back to Taza. Their food is fresh, delicious and have a variety of options, not to mention with the best price. All the workers are super nice and are VERY generous with their servings, especially for the bowl. They truly care about their customers happiness. They closed for a few days for renovations and I swear I was having withdrawals. But 10/10, I HIGHLY recommend this place.

“Very good mediterranean food! Everything is super quick and delicious but next time I think I will just ask for less sauce or on the side. I saw the Falafel made fresh and it was full of herbs and spices! I got the build your own falafel bowl with rice and romaine. The toppings all looked great.I would return.“

“The food is awesome and fresh.“
