50 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Flushing

“Came here on a weekday after work. There were many takeout orders going out the door while we dined. We started off with their grilled octopus, which was one of the best I have eaten in a long time. For the main dish, we ordered the mixed grill platter for 2, which came with a side of lemon potatoes. Honestly, that was enough people to feed more than 2. Everything tasted great. The tzatziki sauce and lemon potatoes sauce were great for dipping. We ordered an orange and lemon greek soda for that all-out authentic greek dining experience.“

“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.“

“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.“

“The best Albanian food in NY😋👌“

“I HIGHLY recommend this restaurant!!! Their food tasted SO good and tasted like it was homemade food. It was made with so much love, and the food was so flavorful and seasoned. Every thing I got, hit. I got the curry chicken platter, and I cleaned my plate. The mint lemonade tasted so fresh and refreshing. The baklava was really good, as well. The customer service was excellent and so homey, as well!“

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

“Had some great dishes, but didn't earn the 5th star for me. Go for the seafood. Those are the best dishes. The lamb was very average and the kebonah looks better than it was. Service was great. Also, save room for the chocolate cake dessert. Simple but phenomenal.“

“Delicious food and cocktails“

“Good and interesting food. Crowded and noisy. Good and very efficient service. Cocktail selection good but mine was ok. Daily special of fava bean hummus was delicious Chicken liver with hummus reminded me of my grandmother. Half brick chicken was very dry and not crisped enough with a soury harissa sauce. (Was it 1/2 brick or 1/2 chicken?). Limited dessert menu“

“I was craving some middle eastern/Mediterranean food and this place did not disappoint! A great selection and the ingredients are all very fresh with the shish kebab made upon ordering. I had the build your own bowl and highly recommend. To top it off, the staff is very friendly and warm, even asking how the food was after!“

“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! 🥰🍾🥙“

“I am SO glad I found this place! The shrimp kebab seriously is divine, I think I developed an addiction. Also, they have happy hour every day until 7pm and their house wine is so good. The place is cozy and relaxing. On a recent Saturday night I was there for 4 hours... they never rush you, the staff is super friendly.“

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

“A smaller space, but nicely decorated. Was able to walk in at 7pm on a Tuesday night for two with no problem. Food and service were both great. The mezze portions are great; really loved the labneh. The carrots are slightly sweetened and is served cold. Falafel hummus was plentiful and the falafel was great. Chicken shawarma was delicious; recommend getting a side of pita so you can make yourself a pita sandwich.“

“Amazing place in the heart of Manhattan) I love that Mediterranean food, which was absolutely fresh and delicious, Bronzino with veggies was awesome ? OMG that cheesecake ?it was lovely)) The Atmosphere of restaurant was fabulous, and I love Karina who served us perfectly)“

“Cozy atmosphere and fine dining“

“I’m a server at a restaurant in Prospect Heights. My guests have been talking about Hart’s every time I make a wine recommendation or ask them where they like to go. 7 months after first hearing about Hart’s, I was able to go on a night off. Not gonna lie, the service was impeccable; friendly; open concept kitchen and kindness. Elan was immediately approachable and the whole team took care of us immediately. We will definitely be coming back - and I’ll be sending my partner with his friends since he doesn’t have an industry job.“

“Go. Seriously. We went with a group of six for brunch and every single person was raving about it for days after. Hits every mark - food (first and foremost), service, ambiance. Only ding is that it's a bit hard to get to but if you're already making the trek to Greenpoint, consider Glasserie a must.“

“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!“

“Didn’t try the food but came in for drinks one night. The bartender told the best jokes and made my friend and I a drink out of saffron syrup he had made. So delish. The owner seemed pretty chill too. Looking forward to trying the food in the future!“

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

“Loved this place. The food was great and authentic, especially for the area. Turkish specials was well cooked and the food filled you up, atmosphere is a little dark and candles are accentuate the dishes, big thanks to polite and helpful staff..“

“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!!“

“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.“

“i usually buy a hot cheeto zinger burger and they charge me up to like 14 dollars when my mom goes they charge her 17 99 but we only want the burger not including fries an ecx

good food chill people but they made a mistake this time“

“Incredible food and cocktails! Wonderful service!“

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

“The food is awesome and fresh.“

“Great seafood nice people“

“Food is great as always, but whats the point of downloading Cava app and making a pickup order when ill have to wait in the line and then the employee will start making my order, although i received a msg that my order is ready for pick up. I asked the employee about it and she said this is the website and that has nothing to do with how they do their work as Cava employees which was a strange response, it felt like the employee was so annoyed i even asked the question. Wait time was very short but im just reporting that the app is useless if this is the way the employees handle app requests from customers!!“

“My first time at Seasalt! Lovely atmosphere, friendly, competent staff, and delicious food. Reasonable prices. The tuna tartare appetizer was delicious (we got pita to go with it). I had the vegetable moussaka which was terrific. It was a little noisy, because the restaurant was completely full, but we could easily hear one another. I would happily go back!“

“I'll focus on three main dishes of Bosnian cuisine: ćevapi, pljeskavica, and burek. This review comes from someone who grew up eating Bosnian food, my mother is from Bosnia and Herzegovina. Having eaten ćevapi and burek all over the Balkans, I consider myself something of an expert on this cuisine. If you have a similar background, keep in mind that this isn't your local Sarajevo, Banja Luka, or Mostar joint, so curb your expectations accordingly.

For what it is, the ćevapi and pljeskavica are a solid B+ compared to best I ate, probably the best you’ll find within a 500-mile radius of NYC. However, the burek (or more precisely sirnica, the cheese pie) is mediocre at best, bland and lacking flavor. It tastes like cardboard. I have a feeling it's pre-frozen and not made fresh on-site.

New Yorkers should definitely give this place a try - it offers a unique and interesting alternative to hamburgers and other fast food options.

Prices are reasonable, the staff are friendly, subway station is just around the corner. Four stars ****“

“I love this place so much! This spot is not your standard Corporatized Mass Food Supply Chain” middle eastern food. (Not going to name names).
It’s good wholesome tasty quality food that always hits the spot. Lots of toppings and variety to choose from.“

“Have been coming here for take out lunch for the past month. The food never disappoints, extra fresh and tasty. The perfect amount of spices / sauce. The staff is exceptionally friendly / polite and helpful! Going there puts me in a good mood each time! Amazing amazing food !“

“Great food - nice & friendly staff - reasonable prices Everything is excellent“

“Staff working as a team and service is fast. My children and I enjoyed our lunch. We had a fantastic experience.“

“Phenomenal birthday cake for my mom. Light yet not too airy, great natural flavors and perfect balance of icing and cake. Also, you don’t feel bad after eating it. It’s just sweet enough that it’s satisfying, yet it’s not overpowering at all.

The only thing more phenomenal than the cake is the owner, Melissa. A chat with her will make your day. She is a real one and a good soul. We’ve got to protect her at all costs!

Go to this bakery ASAP!“

“food was simply delicious and well served👍❤️❤️❤️ the stuff was amazingly friendly and professional❤️❤️❤️will definitely go back there❤️❤️❤️💐💐💐“

“Great restaurant new to the east side. It’s said to be related to Mariam located on the west side and has a very similar menu.

You want leave disappointed, every dish is both interesting and flavorful drawing from Mediterranean, Israeli and Lebanese/eastern like dishes.“

“First time going here, suggested by a friend. The customer service was 10/10! Friendly staff, food organized and presented well. The food was tasty, nice new spot in the neighborhood. Thank god I don’t have to drive too far for chipotle or halal food! It’s 2 for 1. Definitely coming back! Price is reasonable too.“

“Шеф Рафаэли... знаток своего дела! От его мастер классов получаю массу удовольствия и кайфовое настроение.... с ним разве соскучишься?! Могу лишь пожелать Шефу Рафаэли... удачи.. успеха и процветания его деятельности. Так держать! 👍🖐“

“Overall, a solid dining experience. Everything I tried was flavorful, especially the lamb, which was cooked perfectly and full of taste. The rice was also nicely done and complemented the meal well. However, the chicken wings were a bit of a letdown—too small for my liking, so personally, I wasn’t a fan of those. That said, the drinks were on point and definitely added to the experience. If you’re looking for a place with good food and drinks, this spot is worth checking out, though I’d skip the wings next time.“

“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!“

““Gluten free“ started our search. Perfect gastronomic satisfaction every step of the evening! Despina recommended a fabulous white wine, Assyrtiko, she said comes from my ancestors’ Thessaloniki. Octopus, first, with whipped feta. Perfectly grilled Bronzino. Potatoes crispy and perfect. An ouzo topped it off. Thank you, Amali! ❤️‍🔥“

“Perfect for a quick bite, it’s got that “casual, no-fuss” charm but with super high quality food that is absolutely delicious. Don’t expect a fancy setup or date-night vibes here; it’s more of a place to drop in, enjoy, and go. It’s great for a casual quick lunch or a grab-and-go meal that doesn’t feel like fast food. Reliable, tasty, and efficient—just the kind of spot you’ll find yourself coming back to again and again.“

“I recently visited Pita Hot and had the best shawarma sandwich I've ever had. The lamb was perfectly cooked and the sandwich was stuffed to the brim. The staff was also very friendly and gave me a free falafel while I waited. I will definitely be back again soon!“
