Wonderful, family-owned spot in Seattle! Delicious Mediterranean fare with (you might have guessed) vegan options! I had the Mezze Platter with the Mercimek Kofte, Muhammara and Olives and Bread. Everything was incredibly delicious and flavorful! Pita bread came out fluffy and piping hot. Their greens are lightly dressed with the most delightful lemony dressing. Did not disappoint!

Delicious, authentic food! My daughter got the eggplant panini and raved about it. I got the Paloma rice plates and the chicken was so tender. My husband got the meatballs. All were fantastic!

Cafe Paloma offers a charming, intimate atmosphere that immediately makes you feel at ease. From the clean, well-maintained space to the attentive service, everything about the restaurant exudes comfort. Our waitress was both friendly and knowledgeable, taking the time to explain the menu and offer recommendations. She made sure we were well taken care of throughout the meal without being overbearing. The ambiance was cozy and inviting, perfect for a quiet meal out. The attention to detail in both the service and the environment made our visit a memorable one. I would certainly return to Cafe Paloma.

The food was delicious. We appreciated finding a place that was serving full plates at 4 pm in the afternoon.
…Ok!!!💥 Such A Hidden Gem in Pioneer Square! Cafe Paloma is a Mediterranean spot, so you wouldn’t expect dessert to be the highlight—but wow🤤 I had the strawberry shortcake 🍓🍰with an oat milk latte ☕️and it totally made my day! The desserts are seasonal so you never really know what they’ll have, which kind of makes it more fun. Super chill vibe and the staff were really nice too. Definitely coming back.

Very very limited dinner menu. Most of the items in the photos are not on the dinner menu. Mediocre lamb, and probably the worst Baklava I’ve ever seen in my life. On top of that, the server forgot one of our two entrees, and even when she noticed that we are not eating (because we were waiting for the other one) she just gave us a very weird look and didn’t ask a question. After 15 minutes I finally brought it up to her and realized that she had totally forgotten to put the order in!! At that point we had decided we will just eat the one entree, but she kept insisting that we get the second dish. Rest assured they still charged us full price even though they ruined our experience. I will remember that server with for the rest of my life.

While not big servings, the food is great and the cafe is very cute. We got a drink the night before and enjoyed the street view from the outside patio.
Best falafel I’ve tried. Chicken over rice was soft and delicious.

Had the falafel plate with the gorgonzola salad - it was delightful, especially the salad. Had takeaway, so was only inside for a few minutes to order and then to pick it up, but the vibe was chill. Will definitely come back again when I’m in the area.

I got the falafel plate with the best falafel I've ever had. My wife had börek (like spanakopita) which was excellent, and the baklava was exceptional as well. Another customer told us it was the best Mediterranean restaurant in Seattle, and I believe them!

Excellent Turkish restaurant on Yessler Avenue, near the waterfront of Elliott Bay, celebrating 27 years in the same location. Great staff, retro vibe.
