Really happy to have a very good mediterranean restaurant in the area. My wife and I ordered some…read morethings for take-out. Arriving, the staff was very friendly and said that we should be sure to come and dine in person next time, and I think we will. The restaurant is small, and nicely decorated. We ordered Hummus & Pita and Baba Ghanoush & Pita. We kinda treat these as simple tests of a Middle Eastern restaurant. And Mediterranean Grill did not disappoint. While our preference is for the Hummus to be a bit thicker, this had very good flavor. The Baba has the taste of being made with grilled / smoked eggplant, which we really like as it adds a great depth of flavor. And the Pita was quite good. (We'd ordered enough that we had another meal that included these, and the Pita was still great a day or two later. I like it toasted, BTW.) My wife ordered the Gyro Sandwich and really enjoyed it. I thought that the meat had a great flavor and just the right amount of juiciness and tenderness. I ordered the Falafel Platter, and they were beautifully seasoned and fried to a great crispy texture without becoming dried out. Eating them along with the Hummus (that comes with the platter) made for quite a treat. And I also had a Mediterranean Slushy (minty lemonade) that was outstanding. The staff and I spoke a bit about dessert and how they made it themselves (rather than buying them in) and changed them each week. I thought I'd ordered a baklava, but got home and found that it was not in the bag nor on the receipt, so I must not have been clear. I'll sure be so next time. (Of course, if we're eating in, it will be pretty obvious!) Anyway, we're looking forward to our next meal from these folks.

I love the atmosphere of the restaurant part: small, cozy, and ethnic music videos playing behind the bar. I have read other reviews, which weren't favorable to the layout of this restaurant, but if you've ever been outside of the U.S. you know not all restaurants and food places look like an American example. I love this place. I ate a small, quick plate of Lamb Gyro and fries. Also, I had the Turkish coffee...absolutely amazing!! The food was cooked hot and fresh. The owner and staff are nearby but respectful and don't come by to see how you are. I hope to be a regular here, if I can be around in the afternoons.

They forced me to pay with cash because a "white boy like me always has cash".

We made a special visit to Osh to try them on a weekend trip to Nashville about a month ago. I'd…read moresaved them in my Nashville bookmarks for some time after they received a lot of acclaim on Yelp - I believe at one time they were on a Yelp list of best restaurants in the US. We were certainly excited to try Uzbek food, as there's nowhere that serves it where we live. The restaurant doesn't look like too much from the outside and the parking lot is a little run down. However, the inside is very updated and super clean and comfortable. There's lots of seating, what appears to be a private room in the back, and some high-tech features, like a machine that you can use to alert waitstaff if you need a refill, a to-go box, or any other kind of attention. The bathrooms were also immaculate. Service was a little strange. I wouldn't say it was slow - every time we placed an order or had a request, our food or items were promptly brought out to us. However, the challenge came in getting the attention of our waitresses. Two ladies took care of us, alternating based on availability. One was very nice and friendly, the other a little gruff and irritable-seeming. But both were completely averse to coming in and checking on us without one of us flagging them down. Perhaps they're used to the little machines? I don't like using those because they come across as too demanding; I'd prefer to just be visited and checked in on from time to time by staff. Not so here. Despite not being very busy, our visit took a lot of time, even though the actual food service was fairly quick. Onto the food, the most important part. We ordered a lot because I wanted to experience as many unique dishes as possible. One waitress first brought out a complimentary serving of pita and what I believe was suzma, which the menu describes as a yogurt-based cheese. This was one of the highlights of our meal, actually, as the pita was hot, fresh, and very lightly charred. The suzma went very well with it. Then we ordered a chicken somsa and some Uzbek bread. The chicken somsa was alright; the pastry was delightfully flaky, but for me it was way too onion-forward. The Uzbek bread was another highlight. It was a temperature and textural delight - so warm and fluffy - if not a flavor bomb. It was great to polish off the remaining suzma from our complimentary treat. For entrees, my husband wanted to try the signature osh, while I ordered chicken shashlik. The osh was probably the better of the two but he didn't love it. It was quite greasy and the lamb was on the gamey side. My chicken shashlik had definitely been near charcoal too long; it had an overly-charred, unpleasant chemical-y taste. The accompanying rice had so much butter or oil in it that it was greasy, too, and although that imparted more flavor into it, I felt gross after a couple of bites. Everything was cooked well, just the flavors really didn't quite come together for us on this visit. It's hard for me to believe, given the average outstanding reviews and consistent praise this place gets, that our experience was an average one. Perhaps we just came on an off day or ordered the wrong things for our palates, since we're fairly unfamiliar with this cuisine. I would be willing to try again some day, but sadly our first visit didn't quite wow the way we'd hoped it would. I appreciate the clean and pretty environment and quickly prepared food!

Located in a quiet small strip mall area of Brentwood suburb, Mediterranean Cuisine is maybe one of…read morethe stranger names for a restaurant that one could derive. It is clearly descriptive, at the same time, it's a name of an entire food category translated into a restaurant name. In reality, the restaurant is a mix of Greek and Lebanese influences. The gyro platter is one of the more popular items. The gyro itself is served with a sauce over it and generally enjoyable. The tabbouleh is the real disappointment, parsley is clearly not washed well, so the entire salad is full of crunchy sand. Basically, inedible. The chefs must not have tried it. Lastly, the hummus is ok, but extremely acidic and felt off balance. That might be a matter of taste however. Inside, the establishment is clean and casually decorated. Mediterranean Cuisine is clearly a family run business with kind and pleasant staff working, preparing some solid food, but also does not need some extra attention in the kitchen to make the dishes something worth returning for.

I had the classic Kurdish Breakfast along with tea and it was spectacular. There aren't any Kurdish restaurants where I'm from so I just had to come here on a little trip. The decor is beautiful and feels connected to the Kurdish culture and diaspora. There were so many different people and it seems like a great community place. There were cultural imagery of Shahmaran which I think is for luck and strength. Everything about the space was welcoming and open. The furniture was beautiful and comfortable. The lighting was on point and the whole place was very very clean. Okay back to the breakfast! The fried eggs in olive oil in a cute little pan with the sides of a white cheese (not a feta but maybe?), two types of olives, tomatoes, cucumbers, honey, fig jam, walnuts, yogurt and naan. I mean, wow! Take some naan and pick up some eggs with it and add some toms. My fave combo is naan with walnut and then dipped in the honey then using that to scoop a little yogurt. The yogurt was classically Kurdish and had the most flavorful tang. The service was exceptional. I got some honey and dried tea to take back home with me. I also got an iced latte and I still have the cup for memorabilia. Although they would taste better there, it reminds me of one of the best breakfasts I've had in years. (The only thing I regret is not asking for some salt for the tomato and cucumber but the cheese was salty so the balance was there. I just really like salt) Such a great place and I am already making plans to visit again!

Hope the owner has a talk with his team about back of the kitchen etiquette so there isn't food in other people's food.
