This restaurant offers great Mediterranean flavor with a tasteful twist. It's fresh, flavorful and satisfying.

Food and service were both excellent. I will definitely be back. My only criticism: its not clear whether they want to be a sit-down restaurant, or an over-the-counter fast food place. read more

So I wanted to write a review a while ago bc this place was so good! I'm writing now because I've been craving Cafe Moderno for months and I'm finally back in town so I am going tonight :). I've tried most of the menu and everything I've had is delicious. And the staff is always SUPER nice. I love going there. read more

First time here. This is the best med/greek food I had around this area!! I had the comb kabab with, salad, roasted potatoes and drink. Meat was juice, salad well balanced, potatoes great seasoning. But $18 for that seem very pricey to me. That why I didn't give it 5 stars. If they lowered the prices a bit I would come here more often read more

My girlfriend and I love this place. Really good food. They serve bottled beer as well. We haven't tried too many things on their menu but enough items to know for a fact that they are good! read more

Cafe Moderno is a masterful blend of excellent service, reasonable portions, affordable prices, and an inviting ambience. I have stopped by Cafe Moderno quite a few times and would highly recommend it as a wonderful place to bring a date. It is easy to find (right off the 10 freeway) and inviting, and their baklava is quite good. The hummus is also superb. All in all, if you want something light, delicious, and high quality (the service as well, not just the food), check this place out. read more

Grilled salmon with roasted potatoes and grilled vegetables was awesome! The fresh made pita was light airy and a touch buttery. Can't believe they have such a great healthy lunch for under $12.00! A real treat when you are sick of eating out. Just like homemade Greek. Friend got the lamb gyro. It looked great too! Nice ambiance too. read more

Really good Mediterranean food. Freshly made every time and really nice and friendly staff.

Service was good and portions were pretty big/filling. Flavor of the food was really good. The problem we had was 2 out of 3 of our chicken kabobs were raw when we cut into them. They took it back and recooked them but I think they violated a health code cause they should of brought 2 brand new of them. Server said the cook apologized but she could of at least offered a free dessert for the trouble. Wife is feeling a little sick from thinking about the raw chicken. We would of been repeat customers but after that raw chicken incident this will be our one and only time here. read more

Really good! The gyro wrap was light and fresh. Pita was delicious. Super friendly service.

I work close by and when I'm in the mood for something special or I have a lunch date I always choose to go here. The food is great, I have sampled most everything and I'm never disappointed. My go to favorite for lunch is the chicken kabob with rice and a side of hummus...yummmmmm! read more

Everything was fresh and super tasty. Portions are perfect. Had a delicious corn chowder and cucumber, tomato salad. The hummus was also fabulous. read more

Delicious food. Love the kebabs! Best tzatziki sauce I've ever had. Owner and staff are super friendly. We had them cater a B-day party when they first opened. Huge hit! And a great healthier alternative you should add to your regular rotation. read more

Inspired by the great flavors to go 5-star. Chose Chicken Souvlaki with Moderno's Greek Salad and roasted potatoes as sides. Pita bread was the freshest. This was lunch so I only tasted my to-go tiramisu, and it's 2 thumbs up. Good coffee. Perfect service, this place is on my go-to list. Heard several other positive comments while here. Abandon the big mall food court for this casual strip mall place. read more

Curved my craving for falafel, not the best, but not the worst. Great service and clean place, so i appreciate that too. I'll be back when I'm in the area or for a post-mall meal. :) read more

This place is awesome! The steak and chicken is so succulent with lots of flavor. Side dishes very tasty and fresh. I will definitely be coming back. read more

This place is near my house so I thought I'd give it a try! Here is what I tried~ Chicken Kabob plate: It comes with 2 sides & I chose Rice Pilaf and Greek Salad. The kabob was delicious and large-sized. The Greek salad was amazing & I like the unique flavor of the rice. I appreciated it coming with falafel & dip. read more

This was a nice find for our lazy Memorial day. We actually came here as our first choice was closed for the day. The place and setting is fairly simple but nice. We ordered some wraps ( falafel and chicken) and they were just awesome, we ended up ordering one more gyro wrap as we couldn't get enough of it, the wraps are simply great. The falafel was done medium, the way it should be, not burnt and dry, same foes for the meats The Mediterranean fries were as well spiced just right and go great with the food. we are definitively coming back. read more

Fist time I visit and it makes me want to come back. The girls are very welcoming and always smiling. That's the kind of service I like. The food was really good. The grilled chicken wrap with lentils soup was awesome! read more

I did not like this place at all!! I got a chicken and steak kabob with the Mediterranean fries. Okay the meat was the toughest meat I've ever bitten into. It was ridiculous!!! Also, I only live right around the corner and by the time I got home the fries were soo soggy!! I won't be back here. read more

By far the tastiest and freshest Mediterranean food ever! From the chicken to the fish for the angus pannini! Oh and Kelly is the best server ever!! read more

Best Greek/Mediterranean I've had! Can't believe it blew my local Greek Restraunt away - the hummus was amazing , sorry Mike it was better than your moms !! Had the Chicken Souvlaki with grilled veggies and hummus - also tried house salad , everything was AMAZING !! Will make the drive to eat here again soon ! read more

Very good food but tad pricy for the portions. Service is really slow. If you order ahead they won't prepare your order until you arrive if you will eat there. read more

Very good food. I enjoyed the eggplant parmesan sandwhich with the lentil soup. I enjoy buying the lentil soup in the larger to go size too with a pita bread. read more

Do not order their dolmeh(grape leaves), you could tell they were left overs because the leaves were stiff and the rice inside was stale and hard. Their chicken kabob was okay, they only give you a tiny amount of tzatziki sauce to go with it and without the sauce, the chicken is dry. Good service though but food not so much. read more

This place is a hidden gem! Their tzatziki sauce is light and refreshing and SO good with the basmati rice. The steak and lamb kabobs are always cooked perfectly but if you're looking for a smaller entree, I recommend the gyro wrap. read more

The flavors were completely amazing. I fell in love with this little gem. My parents had recommended I go and try it out. They were absolutely right on. The employees were so sweet and attentive. If you want authentic Mediterranean food. This is definitely the place. Will be returning very soon! read more

Really good rice pilaf and amazing steak kabobs was impressed then had burnt chicken kabobs both times I went

Cafe modern is probably the best Mediterranean food I have ever eaten. The service is great, the prices are low, and the food quality is quickly evident. Truly an amazing little spot. read more

Good food, overall, but the Mediterranean fries were disappointingly soggy. Everyone had a taste of each dish and we all agreed that the tzatziki burger was delightful. The grilled meats were seasoned well but a bit tough and dry. We're back a second time to try a few more things! The kids like the pita bread and were happy to come again. read more

I'm Lebanese and always try to find best Mediterranean places I can when I visit an area. I enjoyed eating here simply because it hit the spot. My gyro sandwich was good, spinach feta pies were very spinachy but still a decent taste, but my hummus was very very bland (like no flavor of lemon or garlic or tahini or salt), almost like it was just mashed chickpeas. The latter was a bummer! Because I love hummus. I might go back, but I may try other places first! Overall a nice place to eat with friendly fast service. read more

I have been here 5-6 times already. Food is relatively good. I would have given 4 stars until today. My chicken kabob was not fully cooked when to go. One other issue in the past was that we usually order the same every time. 2 steak kabob plate, 2 chicken kabob, Theo salad full size with 2 chicken kabob added, and a Taziki. My husband always ordered the food while we wait at the table. On our last visit, I was also at the cashier with my husband. As he was ordering, I was in their board menu price list for 1/2/3 kabobs and the full salads are all basic without any meat and the kabobs are added depending on the number of kabob you add. That's when the cashier female person advised me that it's cheaper to order 3 kabobs on 2 plates, order a salad without any meat added, and get 1 kabob each from my family's 2 plates. That was very nice of that lady. No one in the past told us that! So don't add any meat to the salad if you are ordering kabob plates as well. Add additional kabob to the plate. It's cheaper that way. THE RESTAURANT WONT TELL YOU THAT when you can save money!!! read more

Cafe Moderno - Pink spot in the chicken!!! - Cafes Near Me - Montclair, California

I have been here three times and have ordered something different overtime. The food is delicious! My next time I come in, I will be ordering the BAKLAVA, I can't wait to try it! read more

I could write a lengthy review, telling you how much I enjoyed this place. But, what's the point? It suffices to say that Cafe Moderno is the best deal you'll ever find for Mediterranean food. The quality of the food rivals that of any upscale restaurant. If you're within 20 miles, you'd be crazy to pass this place up. read more

Love this little cafe. Stumbled upon it while getting my car serviced at the Firestone near by. Atmosphere is quaint and modern. There's a little patio with 4 tables, two of which have umbrellas. The menu is simple and easy to read. I ordered the single Hummus Plate which is served with warmed pita bread. The Hummus was clean and fresh, with a drizzle of olive oil. It did not leave the usual garlicly taste in my mouth. The service is ubber friendly. If I had more time, I would have stayed and had a full meal. Something to look foward to since I will be back. read more

Word of mouth. People said you have to try this place! For once, they were right. FOOD - Delicious - Fresh - Well Prepared - Plentiful - Reasonably Priced! I had the chicken wrap. It was excellent. The chicken was nicely spiced and the veggies inside were absolutely fresh. My friend had the plate and she said it was delicous. I look forward to going back because the entrees other people in the place were having also looked delicious. read more

I had a Theo's Greek salad for lunch. It was perfect and everything tasted great!!!!The pita bread was warm and soft. And the hummus was also good. The service was very quick and she came to check on us to see if we needed anything else which was nice of her. I will be going back tomorrow! thanks for a great lunch!!!! read more

Great Food, Great Service. I sometimes come here on my lunch break. Everyone that works here is very friendly which is surprising in this day and age. I highly recommend for lunch or Dinner read more

The food is fantastic and the service is great! My new go to place for Greek and Mediterranean food!
