Delicious food - pork soulvaki was succulent with excellent tzatziki sauce.
Calamari was one of the best.
Service was good, it got quite busy.
Nice decor.

Went with my girl. I ordered spanakopita meal and she got chicken souvlaki. It was perfect! Fresh feta, crusty but soft phyllo dough, delicious salad, world class rice! I could eat that rice alone by itself, if it ever came to that. We also shared a slice of mango-strawberry cheesecake at the end. I think the crust had a bit of coconut in it. Lovely! I'll be back if I'm ever in the area again (I live in Brampton). P.S. Attached pictures are actual food, not professional photography (hard to believe, eh?). I only had my cell phone with me.

Me and my friend were there and we were really excited to try the place turned out when we walked in. It was a normal amount of busy just like every other restaurant. The server came on over table got our drinks order. The drinks came on our table real quick, but we were waiting 30 minutes for appetizers and then she came and told us that if you want to order anything else, just tell us now, even when we haven’t got our appetizers just because their kitchen was closing. It was zero service so I decided to pay for my drink and then walk out and we did not even had those drinks as a courtesy they had no intention of making it up to us would never be back, even though we were really excited to try their food.

🔥 This Santorini Chicken from Mediterraneo Family Restaurant… WOW. 🔥
Every once in a while, you sit down for a meal that just hits different — not just because it tastes amazing (which this 1000% did), but because it feels like it was made with real care.
The Santorini Chicken was cheesy, juicy, and packed with flavor — paired with seasoned rice, roasted veggies, and those unreal potatoes… every bite reminded me why I keep coming back here.
As a single dad, I don’t always get time to treat myself. But when I do, I try to make it count. Places like Mediterraneo don’t just serve food — they serve comfort. They serve consistency. They serve something that makes you feel like home, even if just for 30 minutes.
If you haven’t been, go try them out — support a place that truly puts heart on every plate. 💯

What a wonderful find this was! The prices were fair and the food was fresh. Service was attentive and the place had a nice vibe. Lots of feta on the salad, which I loved! I will return if I am in the area again.

Not every restaurant serves good food everyday even a five-star Michelin restaurant.
For the most part this is not too bad of a Greek restaurant. .. The servers are great people and try their best everyday to serve their customers. If you have a complaint about the food don't eat it all and then complain about it ... Bring it to their attention when you perceive to have a problem with your food or service..
Yelling and screaming about the food or service will not get you anywhere. Your mother doesn't work there to look after your tantrums ,keep that in mind.
Remember eat your food slowly it will taste better

Authentic Cypriot, authentic Greek owned and managed by Cypriots and Greeks which seems to very rare in this part of the world.
The Tarama was delicious and the Souvlakia was genuine reflecting the soul and spirit and Greece and Cyprus.
If you are around this area and you want authenticity and soul with a smile, this restaurant is a must

Tonight was my first time dining at your restaurant. The lamb souvlaki was terrific! 20 out of 10! I will be back.
Update:
STILL a favorite and have recommended to many who raved about the experience once they went. We love the food (especially the calamari) and our youngest gets the spaghetti and loves it every time. Portions are great and the service has been fantastic. Really loving the vibe and atmosphere as well. Thank you and we will keep coming!
Would recommend calling to give a heads up for larger parties.
FIRST TIME REVIEW:
Food is great! The calamari is delicious, the potatoes and gyro as well. The greeter was a bit annoyed when we came in as a family of five and when asked, said she’d have to figure out where to put us. The place was empty, there were two other tables with patrons only. ??♀️Other than that, the place is great and becoming a common place to come with the family.

Can be crowded and a bit of a wait if you don't reserve a table but well worth the wait
