50 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Lynnwood

“I lived in the UAE and have been on the hunt for the best chicken shawarma in Seattle and the outskirts. They have by far the best chicken shawarmas, baba ghanoush, etc etc

It’s a must try if you love your Mediterranean cuisine, and worth the drive from Seattle too!“

“Outstanding! Perfectly cooked rice, pita and chicken kabobs. Melt in your mouth. Fresh. A nice surprise in a very casual setting.“

“love this place so much!! the owners and staff are super friendly, and if you're playing games next door and they're not too busy, they'll bring your food over when it's ready. great selection of gyros and other Greek food with vegetarian options, and it's all fresh and delicious.“

“Service and the food is great!“

“Our first meal while in Washington and it did not disappoint. the Greek fries are something special. Great Service as well.“

“This is My most favorite place to go to! DELICIOUS food. Believe it or not, my 9 year old granddaughter turned me onto this place. She said it was her and her dad's favorite place. It's a winner!
I took my husband tonight. The service is amazing.
Kudos to the Chef. He is a fantastic chef. I tried his homemade lentil soup for the first time today. Sooo good.
I would recommend this to anybody. You won't be disappointed in the taste vs price.
I travel a lot all over US and Canada and this is my favorite. Thank god I live near this one!“

“This place is great! We had lunch today and have been a few times previously, so they are seemingly consistent. The prices are very reasonable for the amount of food you get. The gyro plates, pictured, were ~$13 each. I highly recommend them because you get a bit of everything. They made a new batch of fries, toasted up the pita, and sliced the meat off the uh, ‘big meat’ fresh while we waited. Some other places keep the already sliced meat in a hot holding tray. This was much better.

PS: Apparently the “big meat” on the vertical rotisserie is called a gyrokone or meat tornado. Awesome lol 🍖🌪️“

“Excellent, authentic Mediterranean food. The owner is very charming and kind. I have known him for several years and he is meticulous and detail oriented in all of his endeavors.“

“Scrumptious food! Fresh ingredients, well prepared without too much oil. They were super busy when I arrived, and my food was still prepared quickly. Everything is Halal, so you know that the animals were treated humanely. There are also vegan options. Everything was divine, I was happily surprised to find a new twist on some of my favorites. Also, the place is really clean.“

“Amazing food. Amazing service“

“I had a GREAT falafel plate today with generous portions of falafel, salad and hummus all homemade and delicious! I also had wonderful pistachio baklava which I took home for later! I will be going back to this great little cafe again!! I highly recommend Gryo Guys Halal Grill!!“

“Fast friendly and delicious! Highly recommend!“

“Incredible food and lovely staff. Wishing I lived closer so I could go daily.“

“They have such amazing food and the baba ghanoush is made fresh daily. The shop next to the restaurant has so many awesome things that you cant find at your average stores. They're super courteous and it's just an all around friendly place.“

“I want to extend a huge thank you to the Gyro Time team for creating an amazing dinner that our guests thoroughly enjoyed! They catered my fiancé's birthday party for 20 people, and the service was exceptional. They guided me in determining the right amount of food for our group, which was incredibly helpful. We are vegan and our friends are not. It’s so nice to have a large selection of items that everyone can enjoy. As always, the food was absolutely delicious, and everyone at the party raved about it! Highly recommend Gyro Time for any event!“

“Hidden gem in the Everett Mall food court; Speedy and very friendly service for delicious Mediterranean dishes. Super fresh and a healthy alternative to fast food. Yum!“

“This place is solid. I've been here a few times and I don't think they miss. Price for portions has always been satisfying. Lamb an beef are quite tender.

Shawarma? Gas!
Lamb and Beef Gyro? Fire!
Dolamdes? ?

Parking is tricky but that's more than worth it.“

“We love eating here! We have always had a delightful time and great food“

“Great atmosphere, friendly waitstaff and amazing food!“

“Delicious, healthy scratch food in a warm environment!“

“I love this place, the food is fantastic and quickly prepared every time I've been there, and the people working there are friendly and remember what I usually order. The shop is cozy and clean, one of those "hole in the wall" places where you might miss it, but is so worth going. Anytime I'm craving perfectly done shawarma or Greek fries, I go here.“

“I got the lamb and beef Saj Shwarma wrap with hot sauce. I was in and out in 10 minutes at lunchtime. I've worked near there for two years and regret this was my first time going in -- otherwise I'd have been there for lunch more than I should. It's a very clean place, good lighting, a bit drab. I recommend it.“

“The food is great! Service is fast. Smells amazing when you go in!“

“Arrived into town late this past Monday night, right before closing.
I opened door asked if open, I was hungry and just got in.
They welcomed me in with open arms.
Cooked me a great meal and great conversation.
I returned 2 nights later for just as great service as before.
I rate the food an 8.5
Presentation 8.5
Service 10.

I especially want to give a HUGE shout out to the man behind counter, Mohamed. I hope I spelled it correct.
Great service, great young man. Welcomed me in when he could have said CLOSED. Cooked for me after hrs. Best conversation I've had in months.

Thank you again my friend. We need more people like yourself these days“

“If you haven’t experienced Taki and Vickie’s hospitality you’re missing out. The food is excellent hands down but you go and meet Taki and Vickie and you’ll be coming back again and again. See you soon!“

“The lady that took our order suggested we try the falafel, stating "we have the best falafel". Now I'll preface my review with the fact that I am not a Falafel Expert, but I have had lots of falafels from all sorts of places around Seattle . I even made my own from scratch once, which were terrible.
When she brought out our plates, I was excited to try out this supposedly superior falafel, if not just a little skeptical. As my fork pierced the skin of the first of two plump nuggets on my platter, I was greeted by what I can only describe as the most vibrant and lifeful greens I have ever experienced in my entire life. Tendrils of steam wafted lazily from the falafel, almost whispering tantalizing promises to my olfactory senses.
Biting into the falafel felt almost a stage of its own, neither crunchy nor squishy, but yielding to my teeth a texture both firm, yet acquiscent. But the flavor, dear readers, the flavor was indescribable. Saying that it was the best falafel I've ever had seems like an injustice. My mouth felt as though I had been upper-cut by a heavyweight boxer, but instead of my mouth being filled with pain and regret, it was filled with the most delicious falafel, imbuing my tongue with magics most flavorous and delightful.
I am glad that my original doubt was completely shattered by the Hummus Cafe's execution of the perfect falafel. I am slightly sad, though, as I feel I have a new standard of falafel which I feel no one else can possibly achieve.“

“I had a wonderful lunch today. I like trying new things. I had the Mysore dosa and mango chicken curry. Both were wonderful.“

“My son wanted to try gyros so we got some to go, they were SO good!! The artichoke dip & pita is great too.“

“Wonderful repeat visit to the real deal = huge menu, ample portions, great flavor, wonderful service, with accessible on street parking. They could use some authentic Greek artwork on the walls or even Hellenic music.“

“Our favorite place in Seattle for the past 5 yrs. Everyone is family here, and we feel a part of it. Owner is lovely. Best grilled octopus ever! I’m the “ big octopus leg” lady. Love you guys!“

“It is a great place with very friendly &kind people who offer extremely delicious food. I really recommend it for everyone“

“This is one of my favorite places to eat, and I have only great things to say about the staff and the food! I love coming here, because the guys are so friendly, quick and remember my order every time. The gyro salad is so good I could eat it everyday! 👌“

“Delicious with great staff“

“Best food in the town I have been eating since 2010🤩“

“The food is consistently fresh with nice sized portions. There was plenty of everything including sauce and meat. It has become one of my mainstays for lunch and dinner. The staff is friendly and accommodating. This is the best food I have tasted in this genre. It’s a fantastic, do not miss place that you will love. From soup to plates and bowls to salads, it never disappoints. You will find yourself craving more every time.“

“Had lunch at Caravan Kebab yesterday and it was yummy. The Greek Frap was reallly tasty too. I highly recommend this place and give it five stars. 🤩🤩🤩“

“The Lamb Schwarma plate is a feast for the eyes and the taste buds, with a portion to generously have leftovers later! The soup that comes with their plates is comforting without being heavy, and I could eat it every day. Also, if you love garlic, their MK fries are a must buy - my friend & I shared a half order, and came nowhere close to finishing them!“

“Excellent experience here for dinner. Delicious appetizer, beyond wonderful pizza and beautiful tasty cocktail. Ambiance is elegant and tasteful.“

“Good food and lots of gluten free options“

“From my son: This is the best restaurant in the world. Go there now. 5 stars. He is not wrong! We go here regularly. The food is absolutely delicious and the customer service is excellent. We usually split the Factoria Platter (best greek fries I have ever had) but have also enjoyed their gyros and falafel. I doubt there is any way you could go wrong with any of their dishes. The gentleman who runs the place is very kind to, and engaging with, my verbose kid. He even gives him special little treats and samples sometimes. We really enjoy our weekly lunch date at Greek Pita. You will too.“

“I had the Lamb & Beef Gyro Sauj Wrap, which is kinda of a gyro, burrito, with Mediterranean style veggies. Pretty common for middle eastern restaurants. It was pretty good, but had too much hot sauce on it and the meat could use some more spice. The younger guy was pretty hard to understand and was kind of mumbling which made it more difficult to catch what he was saying. And I don't think he understood when i said "a little hot sauce" because he drenched it, and was almost inedible.“

“I tried this place today based on Google reviews. I had the gyro and side of falafel. Food tasted really fresh and seasoned well, I was pleasantly surprised. I especially appreciated the good service. If i could change one thing about the service though, it would be hand washing, because they just went straight to prepping my order. I just happen to inspect restaurants on a daily basis, so I’m accustomed to looking at hygiene. Other than that— would recommend 👍🏻“

“Cheerful, prompt service, great food, and a nice view of the Sound from the outdoor seating area, which is kept pleasantly warm in the cold months. The train is RIGHT THERE at times, a little noisy for a few minutes at a time, but no big deal if you're patient. There's a wide variety on the menu, something for all tastes. And the bartender made an exemplary Martini, to boot. Demitri's will be in our regular rotation for a meal out.“

“I love this restaurant! The food and the atmosphere is amazing! I can't wait to go back. 😀“

“Best Gyros around, I like that you can taste the meat...it doesn't taste like overly spiced mystery meat like other gyro places have. The hummus is excellent!“

“I have loved this place for years. I sadly have moved away from the area and still dream about the greek fries and gyros from this place. A piece of my heart was left in The Greek Kitchen. Special place in heaven for the people that smothered my greek fries. “

“Totally recommend this place“

“Always a great drink here!“

“my new favorite resturant 😋“

“Great food & service every time!“
