You had me at Hen of the Woods! Delicious food and love the seasonal specials (šŸ„ referenced above over Hummus). Fresh and from scratch - Meze is a must, can’t wait to come back again soon! And plenty of veg/vegan options too! Staff and owner were lovely. And inside!! What a cozy gem. I double down on the falafel.

Interior is small but very homey and personable. The service was very friendly and the food was incredible. They claim everything is fresh and locally sourced and you can TASTE it. Not only that, the dishes are also prepared extremely well. Ended the meal with their Baklava which rivaled the baklava that my aunt and uncle had in Istanbul. AMAZING.

The baklava they have is not the real baklava, so if you try it. Don’t think it is the real experience.

The Mediterranean was in one word, impressive. The product is fresh and the preparation and combination of flavors was masterful. Great for vegetarians but also for those that prefer meat or fish. We sat outside and it was very comfortable and the service outstanding. Highly recommend!

We wanted to try a different Mediterranean restaurant in west Chester, having been to Opa several times. Bad idea!
Made the reservation at Mediterranean by phone but they still managed to lose it. Service was fine but the restaurant seemed to be having trouble keeping up. It took 30 minutes to get our appetizers and we saw similar delays at the neighboring tables.
The food was very average or below for Mediterranean food. We had mussels fra diablo. For $16 it was a good sized portion of large mussels. The problem was the taste and the construction of the dish. I have had mussels red dozens of times but never had it served on a bed of lettuce with lemon and jalapenos. Even with the peppers the red sauce was completely bland with not a hint of flavor or spice. The hummus that came with the entrees was tasty but very watery and runny. This was a consistent problem with many of the items we got. The tzatziki had the consistency of water and the tabouli was also very watery, and drenched everything else on the plate. The falafel balls were good but no pita was served with the falafel platter oddly enough. The lettuce in the side salad was brown and wilted. All and all not a great middle eastern dining experience and not recommended

I don’t usually do 5 for atmosphere..or really much, but the food was blissfully delightful, and the price was moderately reasonable. Most entree’s were around 20$, but the 5 Cheese tortellini was 32$. I can understand this though since it was incredibly delicious and cheeses cost a lot of $$$$. The atmosphere was also quite nice and relaxing, the wood greatly complimenting the ā€œhome-yā€ lights. The service was really good too since even though they were closing soon they still came and were very attentive and nice. We came around 7:50-9:30PM(19:50PM-21:30PM) on a Saturday though, so that might factor in. The price is also very good because we will get at least 2 meals out of it. I liked it a lot.
