27 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Bensalem

“Where do I begin? The food is amazing!!! The restaurant is clean. No music is played while you're eating unlike some restaurants. I ordered the lamb kabob, and the potato bolani which both came out hot and tasted magnificent. I will definitely be back here“

“Everything is delicious, but I especially love the stuffed grape leaves and baklava. My parents love the falafel, which is shocking because they never liked it before. Very flavorful and crispy. Staff is friendly, place is very clean, and my order is always right. Great place!“

“There were bunch of mediterranean food places near by where we live at. Had coupleplaces in mind to try from, and for thistime we went ahead with Sama Grill.We ordered chicken shawarma & chicken kebab entrees with side of hummus & tzatziki sauce respectively. The rice had such a subtle flavor , along with the chickenshawarma well cooked topped of with garlic sauce.Their chicken kebabs were pretty amazing , juicy , nice herb flavors , and very light. Hummus was great with Pita bread.Their tzatziki sauce was disappointing , which tasted just like a yoghurt with no such great flavor in it. The hot sauce was not good , either I have mistaken it for hot sauce or it might have been something-else. Either ways I will not try their red sauce personally.We also have tired their Turkish coffee which was an interesting flavor, coffee with cardamom flavor in it. Felt like the cardamom flavor dominated the actual coffee flavor. However it smelled great and tasted decent.Overall after having food at Sama grill it felt very light on stomach given their such subtle balanced herb flavors and well cooked juicy chicken. Glad that we tried out this place.“

“Great food, authentic flavors, and amazing service.Mike’s catering is on point, and he even saved the day with last minute planning and cooked up a storm only a few hours before closing to feed a crowd of 10… amazing!!!!Never disappointed… Highly recommend* * * * *“

“Not only is the food fantastic and addictive, but the atmosphere is superb. The service is not only classy, it's also very kind. It's obvious that the owners are not only good at business, but all around great people. We are truly blessed to have Judah Grille here in Philadelphia. L'CHAIM !!!!!“

“I have never lived in NJ so everytime I want to eat something delicious I drive around an hour to go this place and it is totally worth it .The staff are really nice and I feel comfortable.The place is very clean and quiet.I highly recommend lahmacun.“

“I just Googled "best food near me" when I was in the area and Da Bistro was the top result. I love Mediterranean food so of course I went to check it out.I was not disappointed in the slightest! I can say I had one of the single most delicious meals of my life! I literally (original definition of literally) got ASMR while eating.I ordered the Grilled Spanish Octopus as an appetizer and Lulya Kebab as an entree. I sample grilled octopus every chance I get and this was the best I've ever had; absolutely fantastic!! My Kebab was also incredible, it came out perfectly cooked and oh so juicy. The sauce that was pair with it complimented it wonderfully!After being blown away with the appetizer and entree I decided I had to try the dessert here as well. I ordered Baklava and once again... wow!The food wasn't the only charm to be had. The service was excellent and the staff very welcoming and friendly. The atmosphere was very pleasant and I found the lighting and music complimentary to the cuisine.I'm definitely coming back when I'm in the area!“

“The food is delicious! I had the shrimp tacos and my daughter had the chicken tacos. We sat and ate on the old bank steps next to the cart. It was so yummy, we ordered another two orders to go! Open late on Monday night at midnight. Not sure what time they actually close.“

“Best seafood I have ever had. My boyfriend and I were beyond satisfied. The portions are more than other places I've been and already come with vegetables.Garlic Butter sauce was the best sauce I've ever had in my life. The service is also very welcoming, they called us themselves to let us know they're out of mussels.Ordering again tonight.“

“Absolute gem. Go here now, I mean tonight. Not much to look at as you pull up, but ignore that. Clean and welcoming on the inside.Babaganoush was smoky, silky, fresh and bright on perfectly cooked bread. The mixed grill had a bit of everything from the menu and we loved it all. Meat and vegetables grilled on charcoal and perfectly seasoned. Everyone from the guy that only eats grilled steak to the Indian food afficiando will love this place. Staff was warm and welcoming. In a world of chain restaurants serving poorly cooked processed crap, we need more places like this. Delicious, fresh, healthy food with character. Don't know what you are missing. BYOB.“

“Freakin AMAZING!!! I love this place gonna stop at the mall just to eat here! This is an amazing experience please give it a try the falafel sandwich on pita is great SOOOO good that I'm getting an order of lamb biryani to go Im told its very spicy so I'm gonna LOVE it cause the hot sauce on the falafel was great too!“

“The food is real authentic Egyptian exactly like what you would eat in Egypt. We tried Mahshi, Kushari, grilled chicken, Hawawshi, Pot Kebab, and Shawirma.It is easily the best Shawerma we have eaten in Philly so far. Mahshi is like no other place, real and authentic. Kushari is real and authentic. Pot Kebab is amazing if you like strong flavored lamb meat. Juice is fresh and refreshing. The servers really care about the food quality.Atmosphere is fine and street parking is usually available.“

“If you're looking for a delicious and authentic Georgian dining experience, I highly recommend checking out the local Georgian Cuisine restaurant. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with a warm and welcoming atmosphere, and the food is simply amazing. The menu is filled with a variety of flavorful dishes, and I can't recommend the khachapuri and khinkali (Georgian dumplings) enough - it's definitely a must-try! Overall, I had a fantastic experience and can't wait to go back again soon.“

“I have zero ounce of regret trying out this new place at 11pm mid week. They called to let me know that they were out of steak and I was a little sad but this chicken is tender and the house sauce is creamy, spicy and just simply delicious. I can’t wait to order everything else on the menu.I been having issues keeping food down and has been quite a picky eater but I think your food changed that. Thank you!“

“My 1st time here as a suggestion from a former co worker and friend (whom we both use to like Cava ) let me tell you I'm so glad I came here for dinner ? ?! And it was all under $15 - with a beverage too !The decor is very cute where you can see the jersey of spices and pickled veggies ?It wasn't very crowded which was great for me ! It was very clean ,spacious and the food set up was also clean ??. The music ? was a great touch ???I was greeted by a young lady ( Nurgis) with a smile ,which helped ease my mind on being a 1st timer here ?. She was also working on restocking dressings , vegetables, & keeping the station clean ,which is key ? for me as I observe staff while dining .Wilfredo was the associate who was patient and took my order . I was happy that they had a " create your own " option ,so I created this amazing ,collection of delicious vegan options ?! I was able to get unlimited portions ?what I liked the most was that Wilfredo wasnt stingy with each one ,like other places a.k.a chipotle ?-- ( I didn't have to ask him for a scoop of anything !The falafel was delicious! The 2nd best I've had since ever Ammon Market.Everything was seasoned perfectly, fresh and I thought I would have leftovers ,but baby I ate it all!! ???????.I got a lemongrass drink from the fountain and that was not too sweet nor too bland.This is going to be my new place to come and MEZE or ? Relish“

“Had a chance to checkout the new Gsrbanzo location in Delran and was really impressed with the food! The falafel bowl was delicious and enough food for two meals. Ask for your sauce on the side if you don’t want it automatically put on. I was really impressed with the easy to understand allergen information and gluten free pita option! Overall it was really good and I will definitely be back!“

“Cozy, intimate restaurant. Chicken parm was very good. Service was excellent. I wanted to try a slice of pizza, which I would have obviously paid for. Our waiter offered each of us, a slice of his own pizza he was going to eat at the end of his night.The pizza was also very good! DeliciousTo the owners- You have hired an exceptional young man. He was cordial, always smiling and was quite accommodating.We will be back!“

“Was visiting and came across this page on instagram. We got the mixed kebab grill since we were 6 people and it was filled with tons of meat (chicken, beef, fish, shrimp), lots of vegetables, fries, and pita bread. Everything tasted really good, was just missing some rice on the side which you would have to order separate. Would definitely come back again!“

“I know that I write a lot of 5 star reviews but I promise that the prime burger was outstanding. I’m pretty picky about burgers. Usually places will put so much on the burger because the burger has no taste but thisssss was so good. It had a bacon jam on it. What else is there to say.Tyler was our waiter and he was attentive. I have only good things to say about him.The hostess was nice as well.My friend got the falafel and she really enjoyed it as well.The bathroom is great. It has great lighting. The trash can is a the perfect place for when you open the bathroom door with the paper towel you can just throw the towel in the trash. I appreciate that.The aesthetic of the entire place is beautiful. I loved it. Such great colors and the booths are cool too.I will be back 100 timesVegetarian options: Falafel“

“As I'm sure many have mentioned, this place is very aesthetic and the atmosphere is nice, including the music. It would surprise you how many places just play any music now - classic steak houses playing mumble rap. Anyway, we got the chicken fricassee, the Shaffle Waffle, a flavored tea, and the Mirage(dessert) and Medovik(dessert). The tea set was very cute, with a tea light warmer underneath, but I wasn't a fan of the tea - my boyfriend ordered some sort of lemongrass tea. The chicken part of the fricassee itself was great, but the rice was dry, almost like it was reheated from the previous day. A slice of bread to wipe up the remainder of the yummy sauce would've been nice. The waffle was also dry - like they made a big batch and just reheated to serve - which is fine when done correctly but in this instance was tough and chewy - maybe cover it so it remains moist? The desserts were okay, nothing memorable but decent. Portion sizes were on the small side but we were still full by the time the meal was done. I wouldn't mind coming here again with my girls for the experience but it won't be my main spot. The vision is there, it just needs some tweaking.Edit:I changed this from 3 to 4 stars because looking back at other reviews, they handle the negatives with grace and do seem to make efforts to rectify things people have had issues with. One person mentioned that they weren't very attentive, but today they were so it seems to me that they do put the effort in to review themselves and make changes.“

“The gentleman that worked here on 8/6/2022 at noon was very friendly and professional. I ordered beef platter with falafel and French fries for my son and it was delicious! And when I ordered 4 falafel for to go, he gave it to me for free instead and I wad very grateful. Let's pass it on“

“First time at Canal Street Grille and we were impressed. Good to have a nice local place with great service. Food was good. The place is a square room so everyone’s conversation is heard by everyone, perhaps having background noise or music might help keep some privacy, but will definitely visit again!!“

“Service very fast , location is good. Food should come more hotter. Kunafa was cold , servers are friendly. Prices are reasonable. I wish they would have in-house delivery.Parking: Big plaza center parkingWheelchair accessibility: Easy to access“

“Neighborhood style restaurant & separate bar area. Parking lot on side. Large room with tables, booths. Johann our server was very helpful. Menu is bi lingual so no issues ordering. Selection of Beers, wines etc. Party of four, we had Super Bock beer, from Portugal, which is a lager. Appetizers- Flaming sausage- a nice presentation & Shrimp pockets. Main course- stuffed salmon, baked salmon & 2 orders of Seafood Paella which is quite the dish of rice, peas, shrimp,clams, mussel, lobster, crab, scallops . Desserts also quite good. Recommended for something different, especially if you like seafood.“

“Fantastic food and excellent service from Javier who was kind, professional, and very helpful in explaining the different sauces available and how hot they are. The managers Alvin, Celeste, and Z the former manager do a great job as far as quality and customer experience.“

“A very delicious Mediterranean restaurant and perhaps the best in town! It's better than any small Mediterranean restaurant you usually see around but it's not at a fancy scale. The atmosphere was well maintained though not extravagant. Almost everything was well seasoned and well portioned. I really enjoyed my experience and food here and definitely recommend it to anyone who likes Mediterranean food.It's only a shame I won't be able to eat here more because I'm from out of town.If I ever am in town, I'd definitely return.Blue Fig Signature Dish 5/5 - A balanced, well presented, and nicely portioned dish with a plethora of delicious meats. Athough it was quite pricey, it was very well worth it. You get to try the different and exquisite flavors that they offer. My favorite was the lamb chop. It was the juiciest and most flavorful out of all 4 meats. I recommend getting fries because they pair really well with this dish. In fact, the fries are really quite delicious, well seasoned, and battered, which means they came out super crunchy.Burak 3/5- the halloumi filling was not so flavorful and the dough was not so crunchy as I would prefer. In addition, the quantity was pretty small, even for an appetizer.“
