50 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near University Park

“So healthy!!!!! Loved it!“

“We had a nice time and were overall pleased. The ambiance was nice. We were greeted by management; servers were nice and sommelier great. Food was tasty, especially the oysters. We arrived for an early dinner at 6pm. Service started out great, then after appetizer slowed down considerably. The main course took about 30 min to arrive after appetizer, but my wife says it was more like 45min. Once the main course arrived, our server disappeared. She did not come back to clear empty plates, ask about dessert, anything. I was able to flag her down for the check. Not doubt she must have been caught up with other customers but there is definitely room for improvement in service. We still would recommend the place and encourage others to enjoy it.“

“Authentic Turkish food and beautiful old home that will transport you to the Mediterranean and provide an amazing experience you can only get in Turkey. The menu is large with many delicious options and the drinks are flowing. In the heart of Dallas with downtown views.“

“Love this spot! Perfect lunch, great service, and always a go to when in Addison Circle!“

“CAVA at the Oak Lawn location consistently delivers a great experience. The food is fresh, the restaurant is clean, and the service stands out every time. Joanne, in particular, is exceptional—she’s attentive, friendly, and makes you feel genuinely welcomed while preparing your order. Her customer service truly elevates the visit. Highly recommend this location.“

“Wonderful food and I enjoyed talking with our waiter!“

“Horrible customer service experience tonight at CAVA. We’ve never been to the new CAVA by our house. So we thought we’d take a walk over there and give it a try. We walked in and there were four employees behind the counter. I don’t know how much more obvious we could’ve been that we were brand new to the CAVA experience, but not one of the four employees even greeted us. We took a moment to look at the menu and decided to have the lemon chicken bowl, and the falafel wrap. There were no prices listed for drinks. You should fix that. We literally had to stand there while they kept walking around looking at us and not even saying hello. Finally someone asked if they could help us. I said I’d like the falafel wrap and he promptly walked away without asking what my dining companion wanted. We didn’t know where to stand so we went back to the beginning of the service line. Finally the second guy asked if there was something else we wanted. I told him I wanted the lemon chicken bowl as well. They made up our food silently, no eye contact, no conversation. We got to the checkout and the lady was absolutely unhelpful and unfriendly. We paid for our meal and went and sat down. The food was delicious but the inhospitable attitude of the staff was palpable and disappointing. Something needs to be done about the greeting and ordering experience. Systems need to be in place where people feel welcome. If the food weren’t so good, I definitely would never go back. I’m hoping someone will see this and make some effort to put a system in place where people are made to feel welcome at these new restaurants, otherwise, you are doomed. There are literally five other restaurants in the shopping center where this new CAVA is located. If customers want to be treated better, and they only will be treated better at other restaurants, CAVA will close down very quickly.“

“I’ve been coming here for over a year and this place never ceases to amaze me. The food is always consistently fresh and delicious, they’ve got so many options, and the customer service is outstanding. Javed assisted me and was spectacular. Definitely recommend!!!!!“

“Kyse and asrral I believe their names were, we’re both working when I went this Saturday night… And they were so friendly and so smiley that it threw me off because I’m just like not used to people being like that anymore. They made the experience so good, they even took the time to make sure my soda cup was all the way full after the fizz. This location is very lucky to have two people with such good attitudes.“

“Love it, Awesomeness spot“

“There is more to La Bodega than its delicious rotisserie chickens. Make sure to check out their varied menu full of healthy and tasty options. I'm partial to the chicken panzanella salad and the chicken giardinieria sandwich. The crispy potatoes and mixta salad are great as well. 🍗🥗“

“Outstanding food and service. Had dinner there last night with my girlfriend and the staff went above & beyond. Food was incredible - we will be back.“

“I had the best experience ever actually the best CAVA I’ve visited yet!!! Malcolm was very helpful customer service through the roof,received my food in a timely manner! Very clean atmosphere restroom was spic & span I love it!!! Definitely will be visiting this location again last but not least food was delicious! 10/10“

“Love the cheese and meat pies. In fairness, love everything we’ve had the multiple times we’ve been.“

“We ordered philly falafel sandwich and it was out of the world. Taste was so delicious and fulfilling. We will go there often now. Thank you.“

“We were just avoiding traffic and Sevan caught our eye. We pulled in around 2:30pm and were SERVED. The food options were what you would expect at an authentic Mediterranean spot. The specials were perfect! The salad and Gyro were huge! I’m a big dude and it was plenty! I even had to box some up. If you like something a little heavier try the Kashmir Chicken. So delicious. The chef checked on us and made our day :)“

“Great hummus, must must get the lamb chops! The desserts are amazing and the Turkish coffee is out of this world. Highly recommend, perfect for date night! ❤“

“Great Experience“

“Popped in for lunch on a Saturday. Absolutely delicious! The mezze plate was huge and everything on it was wonderful. My husband & I both were trying to figure out if we'd ever had a baba ghanoush that tasted as good as this one. We finally decided that this was the best. We also had the goat cheese cigars & a kofta kebab and they were great. Everything was wonderful...the food, the timing of dishes, and the service.“

“Excellent food and very great service Nezar“

“Today I stopped by Cava on Garland Rd. This was my first time here, and I enjoyed it. When I first walked in, I was greeted, and served by Rachel. She was pleasant, and very helpful. She was patient, and provided great insight. My food was delicious, and still warm when I arrived to my destination.

I’ll definitely be a repeat customer!“

“The food here is awesome... fresh and tasty. I eat a Cava bowl almost every day and there are so many options that I never get bored. My favorite is the Harissa Avocado bowl with spicy chicken. I would highly recommend for healthy, delicious food.“

“I love this place, we always order burgers very often but today I found a piece of plastic or rubber in my meat. For the owners, please be careful, I will keep ordering food from you but pay attention when your guys prepare food. Still five stars for this place.“

“Impeccable service and unbelievable delicious food!“

“Food is ok, people come mostly for the ambience. The valet parking is a put off personally, it's pretentious and trying to create an exclusive fee,l but its reaching tbh, rather than focusing on being a nice place to go eat and gather with friends with good food they are trying to create something most bigh end restaurants dont even do. There is plenty of parking spaces but they force valet on you. 😅“

“I saw the restaurant advertised on Dallas Halal Buzz. We wanted to try a different cuisine. The restaurant did not disappoint!“

“The cashier lady’s is so rude and not friendly“

“I think I found my new favorite place. Impressive selection of fresh produce and pantry staples. Love the grass-fed meat.“

“Evening was great! Loved the staff!“

“I recommend eating lunch here every week! The buffet is the best on the market. Everything is so fresh, nutritious and especially delicious. This is my go to place to meet clients or friends. Anytime I introduce a new person to this place it becomes their new place.“

“What a delicious and authentic experience in Snider Plaza. This family owned restaurant has been in business for almost 40 years and for very good reason. When you go in, you see the locals visiting that have been coming in for generations. The service is warm and friendly and the food never disappoints. My goto lunch spot in University park.“

“Visiting from out of town, I was hot, tired and hangry when I stumbled upon Maya’s. What an oasis!“

“We had a excellent meal. The waiter was very knowledgeable about the menu and made recommendations based on dietary needs.“

“Great Food , Great Service and did I say Great Food!“

“Cavalli was an amazing experience. From the moment I walked in, I was struck by the stunning decor and warm ambiance. The space feels both modern and inviting, with a cultural touch that sets the tone for a unique and memorable evening.

The food was incredibly flavorful, with an authentic taste that’s hard to find these days. Every dish felt thoughtfully prepared, and the presentation was just as impressive as the taste. The drinks were on point, perfectly complementing the overall vibe, and the hookah was a fun, relaxing addition to the evening. The prices were fair and exactly what I expected to pay.

I was lucky to attend Qawwali night as well which brought so much energy and soul to the night. Cavalli really stood out for how seamlessly it brought everything together from the ambiance to the service. This place isn’t just a restaurant, it truly is an experience and I look forward to coming back again.“

“Delicious cuisine, friendly staff, attention to detail,inviting. Sparkling clean. Wonderful atmosphere. Highly recommend,will return and invite friends.“

“Lovely place to eat ! And great service“

“Beautiful night, so we sat outside and had our magnificent appetizers that defy culinary senses. From the elegance in plating to the multilevel of depth in each dish was the most delicious and unique food I've had in Dallas. I am eager to try their new menu when it is presented. The outdoor seating allows a perfect ambiance with the subtle lighting and the foot traffic that surrounds the various shops and eateries in The Village. I use you to try Anise for its perfect plates of culinary delights .“

“So healthy!!!!! Loved it!“

“اكل ولا غلطه ماشاءالله شاورما وبروستيد الله يباركلكم“

“This is a wonderful family owned place! The owners and staff are so kind and welcoming. Everything is made fresh and taste delicious! My favorite is the chicken Kubideh kabob. Best Kabob in Dallas hands down! Definitely a must try if your in the area!“

“Love this place! We’ve tried nearly every item in the menu and never had a bad meal. The grilled veggies and roasted potatoes are scene stealers as a side option to the gyro.
Casual dining. We order take out and it always tastes fresh .“

“Our server Rito was terrific. Courteous, attentive, professional. The food was good, but kitchen didn’t get things quite right, seemed to be phoning it in instead of paying attention. A nice atmosphere, overall a good breakfast experience!“

“Good food and good service“
