I love this place! I'm glad I found out about this place because they have really good food and the workers seem nice. I have ordered here three times, and the food is always good. I highly recommend the gyros, lamb kebab, Kufta, meat pie, tabbouleh, and french fries. I can't wait to try more food on the menu!Vegetarian options: Most of the appetizers on the menu are vegetarian or can be made vegetarian.
Mr. Sammie is such a sweetheart. Since I started working on the southside I’ve heard so many bad things about certain food place but this place I HIGHLY RECOMMEND. It’s not just about the food but the wonderful customer service :)
Friendly, family-style setting with so much value for your dollar packer in the delicious food. Will leave you wanting to come back

Mediterranean Market is a hidden gem. They give huge portions, definitely enough for a second meal. I ate it in one sitting because it was so good. The lamb is phenomenal and I am definitely going to have cravings for the spinach pie. The baba ghanoush was smokey and smooth. You must try the baklava, both of them. I asked the owner which was his favorite and he said the pistachio, though of course the walnut is great too. I would totally agree with him. They are both the best baklava I've had and the pistachio has such a strong pistachio flavor. Fantastic service and amazing food.

The food here is definitely high quality. There are not many Mediterranean places in Pittsburgh, and I'm quite glad to have a place like this in Squirrel Hill. This place is smaller, and they definitely do a lot of takeout orders. I ordered the meat kafta meal (it came with two sides, so I chose the meat pie and the cheese dough) as well as the Syrian rice pudding.The kafta is so delicious, almost perfect. It is a bit similar to the Russian meat cutlets. The meat is perfectly cooked as well. I think this place's specialty is meat, so definitely try on of the meals with meat if you're not a vegetarian. The rice served along with this meal was absolutely perfect as well. So buttery and well cooked. They give you a huge portion of rice along with your meat which is well appreciated.They served the meal with an oil based sauce on the side. It goes well with the rice and the meat as well. You even get free pita (choose between whole wheat and white), and it was a decent pita. Since the meal was huge, the price tag was worth it in my opinion.I was not a fan of the cheese pie. The description for the pie did not mention they had onions with this bread. It had way too many onions, and there was not enough cheese. I do appreciate they give you the option to choose 2 sides for free, but just don't choose the cheese pie as one of them.The meat pie, though, was outstanding. Again, the trend is anything with meat from this place is delicious. There is a ton of meat packed in and it'd a very flavorful pie. The bread was well cooked and had a good meat to bread ratio.I was fond of the Syrian rice pudding. It had that flavor of being in the fridge for too long. It was also quite grainy and had a strange texture (you couldn't taste the rice kernels, but there were tiny grains everywhere). Not sweet enough. Would recommend trying the baklava or a halva bar instead.All in all, a pretty good Mediterranean place in Squirrel Hill. A good place for takeout or delivery especially, and I believe they do catering well too. The meat here is absolutely excellent; you must get something with meat if you eat meat!
