    a variety of foods in plastic containers
    Austin H.

    It is fresh and much of it is made from scratch. The staff is very friendly and proud of the food they serve. It's difficult to go there for lunch. They are very slow. They cook to order on a tandoor grill. Most Mediterranean places have a rotisserie spit that constantly slow cooks meat and when you order they just slice it off and assemble. Being cooked from a completely raw state means it's a 20-25 minute wait from whenever the kitchen can get to your order. Using the tandoori grill gave a nice char to the meat without drying it out. It was a great way to cook it. The salad was also fantastic and well made. I did however have an issue. I didn't check my order before I left and when I got home they forgot the taziki sauce. I also don't know if the gyro supposed to come with more and they forgot but there was nothing more than a pita and meat. No tomatoes, cucumbers, lettuce, etc. So I had a pita and lamb meat. What I got wasn't bad but I'm just used to more. The rice was fantastic though. Some of the best I've had. I'd definitely come back but I feel there is room for improvement and that will keep it from being a regular spot for me. Long waits and forgetting items on the order just took away from what I can tell is really good food

    This place, simply put - is EXCELLENT. The owner is very nice. Food is well seasoned, perfectly tender, and exceptionally tasty. The name may say Mediterranean - but it's a nice mix of Mediterranean and Pakistani flavors. The Naan is fantastic. The Hummus is incredible. The Lamb Chops are superbly juicy. The Beef and Chicken Kebabs are killer. Glad to have an tasty and diverse choice, right near home. Please give these guys lots of business so we can keep them around and we can all eat well for years to come

    Gyro plate, falafel, pita and hummus, they threw in cannolis (not my fav but so sweet/kind of them).

    Hands down, best gyro meat we've had since Houston, Texas three years ago and we love Mediterranean food! Service is fantastic (so friendly), saffron rice is fantastic, salad is fresh and the dressing was yummy, portions are BIG; we had leftovers after our little family of 3 was done eating. Pretty rare these days. We'll definitely be back!

    Wow! Mediterranean Express ATL is a must try restaurant! The owner was so friendly & let us know that everything on the menu was made to order in house! We tried the 3 Skewer plate (2 Chicken + 1 Beef) and hummus with homemade naan bread that was the size of my head. The skewers were so juicy & flavorful. The rice was also very fluffy & aromatic. Don't forget to try their hommade tzatziki, cilantro & spicy sauce. We ate the baklava once we got home & it was lightly sweet and the perfect dessert following an amazing meal. Everything was so fresh & healthy! They had several people pick up to-go orders, so you takeout as well. Can't wait to try more of the menu.

And it is not overpriced like some other nearby options. The food is excellent. I had the salmon last time and had the seabass this time.

We were a group of 5 and that was pushing it so I'd definitely say no more than 5-6 people. We sat outside and the weather was beautiful. Just a heads up--this restaurant seems to be dog friendly. As a dog owner myself that is something I'd like to know but I understand the hesitation when you're sitting and eating next to a dog. However, doesn't take away from the cleanliness or the service of the restaurant. We ordered the Mezze trio as an appetizer. Everyone loved the hummus however my favorite was the red beet root. I also loved that they can refill the pita bread which went by quickly. Most of the table ordered the lamb skewers which I thought was a good. I'd give it an 8/10. I thought the flavors paired nicely and it was a different taste than the skewers I've ordered before. My brother ordered the salmon and he really enjoyed that. The service was nice however it did take at least 45 minutes for us to get our food which was a bummer. Definitely could see this being a nice, chill lunch or dinner spot.

Juicy, perfectly seasoned, and wrapped in warm, fresh tortillas. No dryness, no shortcuts, just clean flavor that lets the grill speak for itself. You can tell the chicken wasn't rushed or drowned in sauce to hide mistakes. Now let's talk about the Adana mix grill. This is the kind of plate that makes the table go silent for a minute. Everything was cooked with intention. Smoky, tender, well-spiced meats that tasted like they came straight off an open flame, not a reheated pan. Portions were generous without being sloppy, and every bite held its own. The service was warm, attentive, and unpretentious. Staff actually checked in without hovering, knew the menu, and made solid recommendations. That alone puts Adana ahead of a lot of places. The ambiance ties it all together. Cozy but upscale, relaxed without feeling casual. Great lighting, clean space, and a vibe that works whether you're on a date, with family, or just treating yourself to a good meal. Adana isn't trying to be trendy. It's just focused on doing good food, good service, and good atmosphere consistently. And honestly, that's rare these days. Definitely a repeat visit.

Never had convenience and quality come together so beautifully. The food, the service, the ambiance are all fantastic. I was torn between shawarma and lamb shank - the staff recommended the lamb shank, which I'm happy about. It was fall off the bone tender. They could have gone heavier on the spices but they give you sauce (tahini and garlic mayo-ish). The bread was amazing too... fresh, fluffy and warm. The food came out super quick. There's plenty of seating - it's a large space with many booths and tables. The decor is lovely. I wish they were playing some Arabic music to round off the experience. There's ample parking in the lot. If you're wondering if the restaurant is Palestinian - it is. I asked the staff lol. Will definitely be back to try more of the menu before I leave Marietta.

We had gyros, of course, but they were different than ones at other Greek restaurants we've been to. The meat had a crispy edge to it like the end cut of prime rib, but was juicy on the other side. So good! The veggies were fresh and tomatoes were red, not pink. We had Avgolemono soup, delicious. Hey...DO NOT skip on the baklava. Omgosh it's served warm with extra honey drizzled over.

I'm sure we'll order from here again. This place was in my Yelp bookmarks since around the time this location opened on June 19, 2017. I used to go into the office in Marietta and was hoping to dine in for lunch here, but never made it and then COVID happened. My wife has been a couple times now, though. The restaurant has a corner spot with an outdoor patio near Wellstar Kennestone hospital.
