Being the “new kid” new in town, I have been dining at different restaurants to eventually get to all the unique places in town. I was introduced to Mediterranean food by Israeli friends when I lived in Greater Los Angeles. Well, I stopped in on May 29 and it brought back good memories, besides the food being very tasty! I ordered the Beef and Chicken Plate with a side of Baklava (ohhh, so yummy). The plate looked like a lot of meat, but it was draped across a pile of rice - yes, I understand the cost of doing business for a mom & pop shop in a smaller town. But all in all, I DID enjoy the flavorful meal. Total cost was just over $20, so not bad, at all. Some day - - I Shall Return!(Yelp also gets the same review)

The owner of this place is an scammer he don't want to pay me and i did a amazing job for him , he have an upholstery shop In La verkin but he don't have workers he just charge really high prices and then look for people to do the job like me and don't pay

I LOVE this place. The food is always so great and I love that I can order on doordash too. Definitely check this place out. I'm shocked at some of the poor reviews because this place has never disappointed me... You really can't go wrong here!

We tried the chicken shawarma and falafel vegan wraps. My favorite was the falafel wrap, very flavorful. Next time I hope to try their hummus!

The worst food I have ever had. We are just lucky to have made it out without being poisoned. Totally inedible, we only took a few bites. The chicken tasted like it had gone bad. Beef in the kebab was also funky tasting. The hummus was was dry and like chalk. It left a bad aftertaste in the mouth. The pita bread even had a mold spot ?. The lady working was supper unfriendly and looked annoyed that she had customers. What a waste of over $40.

Strongly do not recommend. Look at the "Grilled Vegetable Pita" the second photo. Not a grilled vegetable in sight. The first photo is a "grilled chicken platter" costing 13.50 and lacking tzatziki. Please note this place is operating under 3 different names on Uber Eats!! "Mediterranea Rice Bowls"; "Mama Moussaka", and Ali Baba. I'm so annoyed b/c I ordered Ali baba months ago, it was terrible, and ordered from "Mediterranea Rice Bowls" just now not realizing it was the same place.

I would love to have eaten here but that didn’t happen. On 4/22/21 I stopped by with my family at 5:30, the sign in the door said they would be back at 5. They weren’t open. I tried back at 6 and still no one.I tried again on 4/23/21. I even called them to verify that they would be open at 6. I showed up at 6:30 and no one was there. Open sign was on and no one was answering the phone.Doubt I’ll ever get around to trying them again.

The Mediterranean food is a nice change from the usual choices in the area. The food is good and the plate was full. I will go again and try other dishes.

Stopped for lunch on the way from Zion to Vegas. Our party of four was warmly greeted and treated to a marvelous lunch. We had the Chicken and Beef platter with generous portion and quality ingredients well prepared. The rice was done well. The accompanying salad was excellent. Enjoyed the tzatziki sauce which had a surprising and lovely touch of spice. Highly recommended!! Nice staff, too.

First of all the entrance store is kind of dirty.?hand marks and greasy entrance. When you first walk in it smells bad, like garbage. I placed an order was hoping for lamb but they didn’t have any they don’t carry lamb they carry part lamb and part beef. Second thing is with the carry out I ordered and I received no napkins no utensils. The chicken tasted good but the rice was not so good tasting kind of smells not so good.I was hoping to have a good metro train experience but I have to only give it two stars
If possible, I would give this place ZERO stars. Just awful,from start to finish. Called in an order ( hummus, chicken shawarma, tabouli, and baklava).we went to pick it up...the eat in portion was littered with dirty tables, no to go silverware available. I’m serious when I say, the local health Dept should drop in and shut this joint down. I felt very sorry for the poor young teenager doing everything with no help. The food had ZERO authenticity— shawarma is served on pita this was like a chopped salad on a tortilla. I wonder when the tabouli was made and how long the backlava had been sitting on the counter half covered up. I seriously hope we aren’t sick tonight. And we had to wait 20 extra minutes for our food. I want to be perfectly clear this is in no way the fault of the nice young kid working probably for minimum wage for some l**** money hungry owner. This place should be shuttered.

Cozy little restaurant tucked away behind O'Reilly Auto by Costco. Authentic Mediterranean food. Friendly hospitality. Generous servings were more than enough to share, and we took leftovers home as well. We will try the falafels next time. Come out and support this local proprietor!

The chicken schwarma wrap was big but not all that good. I suppose if you like this cuisine this is as good as it gets in St George. Maybe I'll try again in some more months to see if there's any change.

First time we ate at this restaurant and we were both impressed. My wife has been on a Mediterranean diet for a couple of months and the food here was very familiar. She had the Falafel vegetarian dish and I had the Beef Shawarma plate. We both thought the food was very good and for sure we’ll be going back. I especially liked the beef which was shaved off the vertical rotisserie grill after you order it. Finished the meal with one of the better Baklava’s we’ve had. Completely different than store bought. The food may not be for everyone as it has some strong flavors, but if you like Mediterranean this place checks all the boxes.
