38 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Scarsdale

“Must admit didn't know what osteria was but once I found out. The Aperiti vibe was spot on. Quite a relaxed family or casual date night bite out. The food was fresh, inventive, bright. The calamari was made fresh not frozen. The place was full but not packed. The bar is where we ate so there was no room for others to hangout to drink. Seating was close to each other like the city but it was pretty Firenze otherwise.“

“Best restaurant in Westchester!“

“5 stars always !!!!!“

“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!“

“This is my favorite Cava to go to by far !! Very fast line and the employees are the best. The food always tastes fresh and the portions are awesome. Ps. The pita chips are a must everytime“

“Enjoyable lunch experience“

“Fantastic food! Great value for money. I haven't had Persian food this good since I lived in Manhattan. WOW!!!“

“New restaurant very good food, staff was very polite , for my first time I’ll give 5 stars !“

“Food was out of this world…“

“Man get down here ASAP. I am the Biggest food snob. This place rocks. Johnny Mac YouTubes Cook it with Johnny Mac“

“Great food. The Plain Tart yogurt is second to none. You can't find that kind of quality tart yogurt anywhere else. I literally came from work in the Bronx straight to Mamaroneck to pick up a Quart of the Plain Tart. They make it in-house, and its consistently a top quality product. I would highly recommend Esy Kafe.“

“Overall, the food was excellent and left a great impression. The octopus and potato was delicious but could benefit from a little more salt or acidity to bring the flavors together. The mezze bowls were a highlight, with the bread standing out as particularly delicious. The branzino was cooked well. The citrus salad was fresh and good.

Service was a bit rushed, likely because they noticed we had a squirmy toddler with us. While we didn't mind this, I could see how it might be a bit off-putting in a more relaxed adult-only setting. One small improvement could be a clearer explanation of the dishes when they arrive at the table.

We didn't have dessert this time, although we did look over the menu. I noticed the after-dinner drinks were not listed on the desserts menu.

All in all, it was a very good dining experience for Westchester, and we’re looking forward to returning.“

“The food was phenomenal and the service was amazing. Nothing more welcoming than a smile as soon as you open the door and the same smile leaving the restaurant. 10 out of 10 stars.“

“Great service! Great Coffee!👍“

“1st time here. Had the wings (old bay), ribs, brisket sandwich. All were amazing. Arabela was an amazing bartender and took on the whole bar by herself. Kudos girl!!! Stop the free money so new establishments can staff!! Patience was needed but worth it!“

“I truly love this restaurant and their food. The service was amazing and the people were very nice. I’m not too sure what the people who left bad reviews were talking about, the food was authentic and the service was like as if it was in Turkey. I’m surely going to keep coming back “

“Wonderful dinner. Gracious owner. Great creative cocktails and desserts“

“Moved to Irvington 2 years ago & its my go to restaurant , great food, the BEST drinks & amazing service ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“We had the famous Dominican pizza and the chofan and for me the chofan was on point but my son loved the Dominican pizza.I went on a Friday night and I had no idea that this place turned into a club. So if you want a late dinner and then a party this is the place.“

“There's a good reason you see so many 5 Star reviews - this place is awesome! The food is fresh, menu is creative and the staff are v nice. I promise anyone that goes that it won't be their last visit.“

“I stumbled upon this place today and am so happy I did! I had the falafel sandwich and it was delicious. The falafels were warm and moist and the pita was so fresh. Plus the place is cute and prices are very reasonable. I will be going back!!“

“My husband and I decided to dine at Hash O Nash last week. Let me tell you, they have the best Hummus. It's smooth and creamy. The food is delicious and inexpensive. The server, is incredibly polite, patience and if you are not familiar with a certain dish, he will describe. Of course, my husband and I had to go back. This time I tried the Chicken Cigar. Sooooo good, I had another order. By the way, the serving can feed two. Hope you enjoy as much as we did. 💯“

“Great place!! Food was delicious and the service was top notch!! Highly recommend it!!“

“First of all, I love the location the food was good. The music was out of this world the atmosphere there was like really awesome. The people were like amazing four stars in my book.“

“We had our son’s graduation dinner there on June 25,2022. The food was delicious and the staff was amazing. Couldn’t have asked for a better day or place. The staff was “on point”,so accommodating, extremely nice and made our day more enjoyable. Will definitely be back. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Husband and I finally dined here a little over a week ago for an early birthday dinner for me and the entire experience was nothing short of sublime. Although I was tempted by the views from the window-side tables, I wanted the Kitchen Table experience, and it was an excellent choice. We drove down from Dutchess County (fyi, whoever designed the Taconic Parkway should be fired, but I digress). The complimentary valet parking made our arrival easy. We were directed to the elevator and from the moment we got off on the floor of the restaurant, we were greeted immediately, and the entire staff was incredibly attentive, polite, and welcoming. The main dining areas are nicely decorated and subtly sophisticated. The chef’s table experience was phenomenal. We got very personal attention from the chef and staff members, and enjoyed watching (and inhaling the aromas from) both the main kitchen and pastry side during our meal. The service was excellent and attentive without being overbearing. Water and wine were poured promptly, the pacing of the courses was perfect, and the explanation for the dishes and wine were appreciated. We decided to get the wine pairing, and the pours were both generous and excellently paired with the courses. It was a lot of wine so by the 4th or 5th glass, I was really feeling it and enjoying myself, to say the least. The food was outstanding across the board. I love seafood so I was quite happy with the 7 fish offerings. We started out with 3 different breads, all different and all delicious, and I’m pretty sure I ate the roasted yeast butter on its own, and then uni and yellowtail, which are 2 of my favorites. It feels kind of dismissive to say “all of the courses were delicious,” but they really were. The black cod, iberico pork shoulder with fava been puree, and the prime dry aged rib eye were probably my favorite courses. I wish I had more room since the chef offered us additional rib eye, but I was pretty much at capacity and we still had dessert. The meat was perfectly cooked and seasoned. The iberico pork dish was crispy, salty, full of umami flavor, and it paired perfectly with the grassy, herbaceous, and silky fava bean puree. There was only one course that I wasn’t as enthusiastic about, the bacalhau a bras carmelle. Each course was so good that I couldn’t wait to see if the next would top it. Each course was a few bites, leading up to the larger beef at the end. Of the 3 dessert courses, the first 2 were my favorite. The first was “pear” which was a contrast of textures and temperatures. It was really outstanding and the cold bits in the dessert were a nice, light contrast to the heavy meal we had just finished. The next was a tart/cold dessert with sweet potato shavings and biscuit-like crackers (my dearest apologies to the pastry chef, I cannot describe it any better). It was all so different and worked well together. Again, the contrast in textures/temperature/flavors worked so well together. By the last dessert course, I was fairly stuffed and couldn’t finish. Again, there was a savory component (lettuce) that was (and I’m guessing here) caramelized so it was sweet and I ate both pieces. There was a custard as well and the crust was so flaky, and I was sorry that I couldn’t eat more of it. 3 ½ hours later, we waddled out quite satisfied and happy. Next time, we’d skip the wine pairing because it was simply too much but I can’t wait to visit here again and try new dishes. I don’t think I can accurately convey how delicious our food was or what a great time we had.“

“From the food to the service to the ambiance of going to your grandmother's for Sunday dinner, everything is amazing.“

“Great food!!! plenty of food choices. friendly service.“

“The food is reliably good, maybe not spectacular. The desserts, though, ARE spectacular. The drinks are good, too. The only problem with the service is that the bartender also has to wait tables, so everything slows down. Prices are reasonable for Westchester, and the place has a very relaxed vibe.“

“We were able to snag a table for two at the last minute with the help of a very accommodating hostess. We spent 10 minutes waiting at the bar, where the bartender was quick, efficient and friendly. Our table was a cozy (not cramped) corner booth for two and the seating was very comfy. Laraine was our sever and she was great. Attentive without intruding. Quick without being frantic. Excellent excellent service. The food was delicious and served hot. There is nothing that we would change about our visit except we should have tried this restaurant sooner!“

“ordered shepherds salad on a Saturday night to go. Got home see pictures. First off, personally I don't like olives with pits in a salad. I hate taking a bite and having to deal with pits.
2nd so little feta..On a salad this size should be double the amount. Lastly, no utensils. Doesn't make a difference if it was to go. Utensils should always accompany a meal. I could have wemt to the beach.

Either way, salad tasted good, service was good. Will probably be back, will ask for extra cheese abd utensils“

“The food is really great..the woman/w glasses..whom I gave my order to is always super sweet!! (Restaurant seems totally clean)..even the chef is friendly,he nodded hello!! I heard the lemon potatoes are so outrageous..so I tried them !!! Yep..tremendous!!!

Very good food..well organized too“

“The food was exceptional and it met and exceeded any expectations we have for a Portuguese restaurant. I’ve been traveling to Portugal for 34 years, this is not only authentic but top-notch execution of the most common Portuguese entrées. The staff was extremely attentive, and the service was great, they also have their own in-house pastry chef. The desserts were exceptional and when really needs to enjoy as many as possible with friends.“

“I Definitely recommend this place .Food is great stuff is so friendly.Price is great.I will come back again.Thank you🥰❤️❤️❤️😊“

“Nice and clean place!! I loved the pizza and the cheese cake!!!!!!!!!!“

“Excellent customer service“

“Food was very good service was pretty good we got our food pretty fast except the host/waiter never cracked a smile. Very dry person. Kind of rude at times but it is what it is. Mexican guy with long hair. Wasn’t really kind to the kids either. I had the chart octopus and grilled shrimp and a Greek salad. Everything was good. Except the host/waiter.

Parking: There is a parking lot but it’s small maybe 10 to 15 spots“

“Best chicken souvlaki pita I’ve ever had!“
