My coworker and I like to find places open late and Cedar Geill came up. I had visited before several years ago at a previous location. I wasn't aware on this visit that they had moved until I got there. The sign says La Mirage Cafe, so I called to confirm I was in the right location. The friendly voice assured me we were and that they were open. When we walked in we were greeted by a lady who let us know she only spoke Spanish. So we had to try to keep our order simple and uncustomized. For an appetizer, I ordered a fried ball of dough with ground beef inside...keffe or something like that. I didn't care for it, but that doesn't affect my ratings since I didn't really know what to expect. Difference in taste and all that. I also ordered a chicken kebab wrap which was very good. My coworker seemed to enjoy her food (hummus and something else I don't remember). All in all, the reason for the low score was not for the food, but because I think they need signage (even temporary) to let the public know who/where they are, someone who speaks English enough to take a full order, and cleanliness (see picture). Also, we weren't checked on hardly at all and we didn't know whether to pay at the table or at the register so we waited quite a while to get someone's attention to take our money. I would like to try back in a few months when they're hopefully done renovating. read more

We ordered through Uber Eats - tried a BOGO "deal" but required the purchase of two $3 drinks to use the deal. Feels scammy. Fries were burnt beyond recognition and should have never been served (think bottom of the barrel scrapings), meat was dry. Did not think we got a good value for our dollar. We were disappointed to have tried something new. Would not consider a revisit , nor would we recommend. read more

I got the lamb shish kebab plate. The meat was burnt, rubbery and so salty it was almost inedible, even after drowning it in the garlic sauce. The rice was alright. The Mediterranean salad did not have any dressing on it so it was bland. The best part is the dish was the dolmas and I'm pretty sure they were store bought. read more

Finally got to try. Unfortunately I had to Uber it. I feel by the time I get the food it takes away a little from the quality. Still very good. Got the mixed gyro and it was good. The rice was great. I added a chicken noodle soup thinking eh, it will be basic. The chicken noodle soup was the star. Not to take away from everything else but it just stood out. It was really really good. Definitely try this place and don't forget the soup. You won't be disappointed. Thanks y'all. read more

SO DISAPPOINTED! We saw this place on Instagram on the @bestfoodsanantonio so we decided to give it a try. We ordered takeout and went inside to pick up and NONE of the employees were wearing masks! This is a time where it's mandatory so this was upsetting to see. Then we get home and open our takeout containers and instant disappointment. We barely got any chicken!! My plate had so much cold rice and only 6-7 pieces of chicken! It was so bland and dry, I had to drown it in the hummus. And then not to mention the bread tasted old. I am so upset we wasted our gas and money to come here for this read more

It's cedar grill online, but outside it's listed as the mirage.. or something like that. There is an actually "cedar grill" up the road, but it's a Pakistan restaurant- not cedar grill.

Nice quiet place close to my work. I love Middle Eastern Food and wanted to try this place. Good price for lunch special. Gyro, beef or chicken is $6.99. I was super hungry so I also ordered a side of Falafel. I like the upbeat Arabic music. The soup had flavor and did not need salt or pepper. The Beef gyro had very generous portions of beef, onion , tomato and sauce. No need to request extra. The Pita was super fresh and soft. I got there right when they opened and by the time my order was ready they were really filling up. read more

Driving by, I never would have expected the kitchen to turn out Mediterranean dishes based on the lodge-style exterior. Menu was a pleasant surprise of sandwiches, soups, kabobs, and apps. It's unclear whether there is table service or if you are supposed to walk up and order (which I did), as there is no posted menu and you seem to have to return to the counter to pay (rather than paying as you order). Bit of an unusual setup. Opted for the mixed grill plate (three different types of kabob with rice, salad, and hummus for $15), with a minor substitution (sub additional salad for the rice). Order took 20 minutes and I didn't get rice or additional salad. The steak kabobs were best, the other two were extremely dry, especially the chicken. Hummus lacked flavor, but I liked how the salad included bell peppers. Long story short, there are better options in town. Staff needs to try harder. Service was limited, other patrons had to get up repeatedly to get additional items (takeout boxes, silverware) as staff did not come out to check on tables. read more

If I could give this place 3.5 stars I would, but I'll have to give it 3 for now. After moving to the area, I have been searching for a great gyro! My yelp results led me here. For lunch I got the gyro sandwich and fries. My order was made very quickly and everything tasted very fresh. My gyro had a good amount of meat and was juicy; however, I thought it lacked in flavor overall. The fries were tasty though! Nicely seasoned and crispy. Overall, a good spot for Mediterranean food, but not the best I have ever had. I will probably come back if I'm in the area but not go out of my way to come here. read more

Perhaps I was a bit overhyped about coming. For the price and taste, it's decent. However, the food is not as tasty as some other places in town. I like my gyros with thick cut pieces of meat and my bread soft and chewy. The gyro has thinly sliced meat and is loaded with lettuce and sauce. The food portions are also pretty average to large -- you will not be hungry afterwards. Two really great points about this restaurant is the service and price. The staff is very nice and courteous and asked us several times if everything was good. Well, I really didn't have the heart to say that the food is just not as good as some other places. However, that being said I think if you are looking for a quick Mediterranean fix that is authentic tasting, this may be a good stop for you. It really didn't meet my palate expectations. The second point is the pricing. The gyro meal is $6.99 and includes the gyro plus fries. That's a great lunch price. On the other hand, you are not getting fresh cut, thickly sliced fries. Just make sure you aren't expecting like Zorba's $10 or lamb like Mediterranean Turkish Grill. Keep your expectations as a cafeteria, casual Mediterranean and you shouldn't be disappointed. read more

I received my order by delivery. I ordered a meat gyro sandwich & falafel/hummus appetizer. The falafel was overcooked to the point of looking very dark, as in burned. Tasted burned too and was really hard. I feel like it would have been obvious to the cook that this would be sent back in person, but since it was delivery, who cares? For that alone I won't go again, plus the gyro was just ok. You can get better at Demos, Mini's & even Papoulis chain. Maybe it's better in person but I'm not finding out. read more

This time I paid extra for the feta cheese and wrote in the special instructions for them to add it to my fries and they actually did it. Some places don't really listen to the special instructions but cedar does :) what I really like about the gyro as well is that the price INCLUDES the fries instead of having to pay extra for the fries like most other places.

I needed different. I became aware of my rather limited palate as I looked through my instagram posts. Do I love food? The abundance of food pics was a resounding yes. However, I seem to stick to a certain choice of foods. Time to sprout a new leaf and Cedar Mediterranean Grill is going to grow me up a bit. I arrived just after 11am, their opening time. Selected a table I liked and scanned the menu. I was in luck, I was greeted by the friendly owner who suggested the mix grill - three skewers of marinated lamb, beef and chicken kebab grilled to perfection and served on a bed of rice with two sides. In addition to that, I tried tried two medallion s of falafel (yum!!!). So how was it? From the first bite to the last, a feast of flavors unlike anything I've tasted before. You know what? I didn't realize how I love lamb until I tried the lamb that is prepared here! There was so much food but that didn't stop me from polishing off my plate. Trust me, you need to try this place soon!!! Who comes here? On the day I visited, couples, people of all ages and me, a small business owner. Support small business as often as you are able. read more

My husband has been working so hard the last few days. He worked on our anniversary day so I decided to order takeout when he gets home. His favorite foods are top steak houses, Mediterranean food and lastly Thai. Ordering 9:30 pm on a Wednesday night was nerve wrecking. I opted for cedar. I purchased the lamb and two shawarma plates (chicken and beef) hummus, grape leave rolls and salad with an extra bread. WOW!!! After my scare with Pasha I just prayed everything will turn out good. I plated everything for him and he ate more than he expected because it was so delicious. The rice was great as well! Not plain and nicely seasoned. We will be visiting in person! read more

We began with waters for the table, soft drinks, and cocktails/mocktails (Man Walks into a Bar, Amba No. 5, Don Alberto, Green Shug Collins). Due to our large party, we had booked a chef's tasting experience, which was spectacular. The appetizers were plentiful, flavorful, and unique.

It was such an immersive experience, I never took out my phone to capture photos of the food (or our group, sadly). Three desserts topped off the evening.

My guest and I immediately noticed the traditional Turkish aromatics that filled the establishment. The waitress who tended to our table was engaging and explained the menu in depth as well as vouched for the food's authenticity. As my guest and I wanted to try multiple menu items, we elected to order the dishes that offered an array of food. Appetizer: Cold Platter This dish included hummus, babaganoush, dolma, ezme, and piyaz. The plater was properly "stacked" with the flavors of the app. going from "punchy" to mild. The piyaz was a perfectly balanced white bean salad packed with Mediterranean flavors. This combination of white beans, tomatoes, onions, and parsley was simple and yet deliciously satisfying! The dolma on this dish was a perfect combination of filling vegetables, grape seeds, Rumex, hornbeam, and quince leaves, with a kick of lemon. The babaganoush was light and refreshing. The simple combination of roasted eggplant, tahini, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and salt is something that is not to be missed if you are looking for a vitamin packed dip. The Ezme "mashed" was made mainly with tomatoes, cucumber, and olive oil and packed a little punch, which most likely was accredited to the peppers. Main: Hot Mixed Platter This dish included meatballs, chicken, beef, and lamb (doner) atop veggies and rice. All the meats on the plate were seasoned to perfection and tender. My guest and I ate the meats so quickly that I am not able to appropriately describe the flavors other than with the a word, "delectable". Dessert: Dessert Platter This platter had a sampling of Tiramisu, čupavci, KÜnefe, and Baklava. Although the čupavci and KÜnefe looked great, I couldn't eat them as they both are made with coconuts (to which I am allergic). I actually took a bite of the KÜnefe before I realized that it had coconut shavings in it. With this dessert, the cheese is arranged between two layers of Kadayıf (shredded phyllo), cooked until golden, and soaked in a sweet syrup. The čupavci (sponge cake) was soaked in chocolate sauce, then dipped in unsweetened, shredded coconut. Fun fact: Čupavci means "furry" because of the fuzzy surface the coconut provides, which I learned when I visited Turkey many years ago. Java Folks who read my reviews know that I am a java junkie. So, of course, I requested the Turkish coffee. Turkish coffee is prepared with more water than its Italian counterparts and is meant to be sipped rather than drunk quickly like a shot. There is also a tradition of reading the grinds at the bottom of the cup to tell fortunes, known as tasseography. Turkish coffee cups are small, similar to the size of an espresso cup, but with a rich history of their own. This coffee is prepared traditionally and provided a much needed pick me up. This family restaurant has authentic quality food and the highest level of service. If in the area, this locally owned spot is worth a try. Total for the meal before tip $89.00 #supportlocal

Service was great with very friendly people. FOOD: Starting with the bread and ezme dip is perfect. It was delicious for a free starter. Slightly spicy, exceedingly savory, and a good richness with the olive oil. Mains that my wife and I had were both delicious. The Turkish bread they use for the pides is just phenomenal. You can eat it by itself, but the cheese and meat just take it to another level. The lamb shish was also so good. Meat was not very gamey and was just CRAZY tender. Salad was mot bad either, but the meat stole the show. Plus, good portions allowed my wife to have leftovers which were so good the next day. 100% recommend Chef's Table. We are excited to go back and try more stuff

I hadn't eaten all day, so I was absolutely ready for calories and nutrients. I ended up getting a falafel plate that let me mix and match a few things -- falafel, babaganoush, tzatziki, grape leaves, and an eggplant salad that sounded interesting. I didn't realize the eggplant salad would be served very cold -- like straight-from-the-fridge cold -- which just wasn't my thing. The falafel itself was okay, but not great. It was kind of chewy and brown all the way through instead of that nice warm, soft, and green-on-the-inside falafel you get at really good spots. The dolmas were fine, the tzatziki was a little too creamy for me, but the babaganoush was definitely the standout -- rich, flavorful, maybe a bit heavy on the oil, but I didn't mind it. When the server checked in and asked if something was wrong with the salad, as I had not made a dent in it, I mentioned it was really cold, and he said, "That's how it's supposed to be." Fair enough -- just not my preference. Overall, it was a decent lunch for around $20 including tip. The location is pretty unassuming, and it did the job for a quick midday bite, but I'm not sure I'd go out of my way to come back.

Every bite tasted fresh and intentional, but the hummus truly stole the show: ultra-creamy, perfectly balanced, rich with olive oil, and clearly made from scratch the right way. And the lamb--absolutely incredible. Tender, juicy, and perfectly seasoned, cooked with just the right balance of spices so the flavor shines without overpowering. It was melt-in-your-mouth good and easily the highlight of the meal. The flavors here are deeply authentic and comforting, the kind of food that tells a story. You can taste the care, heritage, and love in every dish. This is a must-visit for food lovers--cannot wait to come back.

Some restaurants feed you. Tripoli's transports you. From…read morethe moment you walk in, the space does something to you -- warm lighting, tufted banquettes, burgundy velvet chairs with gold legs, and a ceiling panel with intricate geometric lattice work straight out of a Moroccan riad. It doesn't feel like a strip mall restaurant. It feels intentional. The pastry case alone deserves its own review. Piped butter cookies, rose-dotted squares dusted with cardamom, delicate filled rolls -- it's the kind of display that makes you order dessert before you've even sat down. And then the food. The chicken shawarma bowl is not playing around -- seasoned chicken, kalamata olives, crumbled feta, creamy garlic sauce over a bed of greens, finished with cracked pepper. Every bite is layered and bold. The kind of meal that makes you pause mid-fork and just appreciate it. What sets Tripoli's apart isn't just the food or the ambiance. It's that the whole experience feels curated. Like someone who actually loves this culture built this place and meant every single detail. San Antonio has been sleeping on this gem. Wake up!!

I had a hard time walking out without calling for the manager or owner. I would like to start my…read morepost with the positive so here it goes. The ambiance was great, everything from the decorative rugs, Arab writing on the wall, tagine pottery and brass crafts were perfectly displayed. The tabbouleh salad was very tasty, it had the right amount of ingredients making it pretty as well as colorful placed in the neat brass metal bowl. Now with the things that require immediate remedial attention: 1. The burger was overrated, overcooked and dry. 2. The chick pea salad lacked chick peas, dressing, onions and feta cheese. 3. The lamb Kofta plate was prepared right however, it was not enough meat for the price and the cream sauce tasted like straight butter with a hint of garlic. The pita bread was lukewarm and looked like it had been unwrapped, quartered and thrown in a microwave for 30 seconds prior to serving it. 4. Drinks Ordered: The Cafe' Arabia was very tasty BUT, I didn't get it until we were almost done with our meal. We ordered drinks when we were first seated so that was a big red flag. My wife also ordered the Moroccan mint teapot and she didn't get it until after I got my coffee. I told the barista/waiter to cancel it when I got my coffee but he said it was also ready for us and could put it in a to-go cup for her. That kind of defeated the whole experience of drinking tea while waiting for our meal. 5. The service was really slow. Took over 15 minutes to get our (tap) waters and 20 minutes for our food when we were the only ones in the restaurant until we had placed our order. 6. The waitress needs some serious people skills and bussing training to know how to serve food and drinks. She touched the tops of the glasses her fingers. She didn't greet us and practically dropped the plates on the table when she brought them out. To add insult to injury, she put the handheld pay device on the table without asking us if we wanted or needed anything else. My kids wanted to try out some desserts, so luckily for us, the nearby HEB has plenty to offer. I had high hopes for this place because of what the owner posted on Instagram and it is so close to our neighborhood. Guess we will have to continue driving further into the city to other Mediterranean and Middle-Eastern restaurants that have better food and service.
