One of the best Mediterranean restaurants around! Everything we ordered was fresh, flavourful and delicious! Tabbouleh had a special touch of pomegranate seeds and cinnamon. Very unique and interesting! Hummus and baba ghanoush were great, and so did falafels. My chicken sandwich was also very tasty but I didn't like too much garlic spread in it and strange pickles (i dont know if they were real pickles, they looked like pickled okra or baby corn that I didn't like, however my husband loved them). Overall, amazing experience! Their baklavas were also tasty! We would definitely come back. Customer service was excellent!! Thank you! read more

Very rude and cannot accept constructive criticism. The food was dry, nasty, overpriced, and not worth it. I personally saw the husband, who cooks the food, scratching around his backside and then handling food without washing his hands. I said something immediately. They responded to my review telling me to go to McDonald's -- honestly, McDonald's is better than this place by far. The skewers were dry, around $35, and definitely not worth the price. I would not recommend this place. read more

Mediterranean Fresh Grill - review from google - Lebanese Near Me - Winter Haven, Florida

After a fun-filled day at Legoland, we stopped for dinner before heading home. Mediterranean Fresh Grill was literally across the street & had indoor dining. Inside the restaurant was clean & bustling with diners. We were promptly seated & Priscilla answered all of our menu questions. We ordered 1 pomegranate salmon, 1 beef shawarma platter & 1 spinach pie & entree salad. Each dish was served hot & timely. Everything was delicious and filling. We would happily return. read more

Five star flavors, beautifully presented! Great (classy) service, and they love to teach! While it represents all Mediterranean it's very Lebanese in many options. Creamy hummus, great grilling. Wish I lived closer! read more

We just ate at Mediterranean Fresh Grill and it was fantastic. The food, incredible. Everything we had was fresh and delicious. We even somehow had room to try the homemade gelato, which was so, so good! The service was incredible. When we walked in, there was just one other party, but while we were eating several other groups came in and the place got full! The server handled everything with ease, giving each party personal attention while keeping tabs on all the tables. All in all, a fantastic dining experience! read more

This place is incredible. It's small, and reservations are a must in season, but the food is delicious. Extremely fresh, light fare with all the classics: hummus, flafel, pita. The best fish I've ever eaten. Homemade gelato that I'll be thinking about until I go and get more. read more

I ate here for lunch and it is like a small café type atmosphere and very cozy. It's cool. It is relaxing, casual dining. The food was excellent. The prices are very reasonable. They have a large menu with excellent choices on salads, appetizers, sandwiches, skewers, etc. They have desserts as well. They are closed on Sundays and Mondays but open through the weekend weekends they are open from 11:30AM through 8:30 PM. I have attached a menu link https://. www.mediterraneanfreshgrill.com/menu read more

Mediterranean Fresh Grill - Falafel (4) and Baba ghanoush - Lebanese Near Me - Winter Haven, Florida

It is aMaZiNg!!! This food it some of the best I've ever had. So fresh and served hot! Friendly staff too!

I wish we would of took a picture of what we ate. But it was so good we just dug in! We started with this fried bead the chef made us with garlic spread all over it, we could have ate more it was so good. Then we got grape leaves again 10/10. We decided to share a plate and I'm so glad we did, it was so much food. 4 skewers with , chicken, lamb, ground meat and shrimp. It came with a salad and rice. If anyone is in this area I recommend you come here. The owners and employees are very nice and the food is 10/10 . If we lived around this area we would come back more often. The one and only down side is there only open for dinner. read more

Truly a hidden gem in a Publix strip mall in Winter Haven. The service was great and the food was very flavorful and fresh. Ordered the lamb shank and for those who don't like lamb - get it. It will change your perspective. Salad was fresh and the rice was flavorful. If you like garlic, try the Toum (Lebanese garlic spread) Beer and wine only with limited selection. The area is surrounded by chain restaurants (Legoland is close), and this is the spot to go for an amazing change of pace. read more

Parents dinner out adventure!!! Parents on the loose, we trying new place for sure!!! We stopped by on a Tuesday night semi busy, but not overly busy like I see the weekends may be. The short and quick of it!!! Service was good, but not great for a slower night. The food had its highs and lows. First off this place is pretty pricey, good quality food usually is!!! For the apps: We got two, both were $9.99. The spicy potatoes and the falafel - result = Spicy potatoes were awesome, would get them again in a heart beat. The falafel was good, you get 4 pieces, but they were small in size and a bit over cooked. The plate was beautiful tho, check the pics. For the Entree: We split the combo skewers 28.99 - result = everything was cooked to perfection. The steak was my fav and the chicken was the wife's fav, we both liked the shrimp and kafa as well. It came with 2 sauces: tzatziki and another for the chicken and seafood. The tzatziki was a little creamy and didn't really have body to it. The other sauce that started with a B was very good. All in all this is a nice night out, but it will stay a parents only place simply b/c of the cost. As always this is one persons perspective try it for yourself!!! read more

Food was not good. Chicken was cold. No flavor. Falafel was way too crunchy and overdone. We came because of the good reviews. Left disappointed. read more

Friendly staff and clean environment. It's a Lebanese chef using fresh ingredients to make delicious dishes. Menu has A wide variety, having options for everyone. The peppers they used are soaked in vinegar and give an extra tang to the dishes. The mint lemonade was so refreshing. Definitely a place to try. read more

Finally got around to trying this place out! Came here during a perfect time--before the lunch rush. Right off the bat this place is clean and well kept, so clean you can basically eat off the floor. Our server was Jose, he was very friendly. He asked us if we've been here before, made menu suggestions. Even made sure to ask us if we had any allergies. He checked in regularly and wasn't under or overwhelming. Super kind and diligent guy. Me and my husband both ordered the Chicken Shawarma plate, it came with house salad and rice. The food was both aesthetically pleasing and delicious! The salad was refreshing, you can tell the produce used was fresh. I was expecting the chicken shawarma to be a piece of chicken breast, however, it came out cut into smaller pieces, which I actually liked, because cutting chicken can be a pain sometimes. The chicken was perfect, not dry or chewy-- it was very flavorful! The chicken and rice did have a bit of a cinnamon taste to it which was different but still very good! We will definitely be back, and I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for good Mediterranean cuisine! read more

The first thing you notice here on Yelp is the 4.6 review. Honestly, it's a tad low. 5 stars all day. If you baked in the sun during a long day at Legoland, you'll be in desperate need of the mint lemonade. If you woke up on the right side of the bed and are having a great day, you're still in need of the mint lemonade even if you don't know it. This was our first trip as we are out of town spring breakers doing the Florida thing. Having 2 of us on a keto diet and another on a different one, we are looking for more friendly options during this years vacation. So I pulled up Legoland on the map and just starting snooping around. Right across the street I see Mediterranean (hey, that's one of those healthy diets I hear about) and fresh (hey, that sounds... Fresh) and grill (hey, I love grilled meat). We decided on some spicy wings, hummus for my daughter, and kibbeh. All were excellent. For dinner we did the skewers 4 pack and the beef kafta. Again, both were awesome. Back home, the place we go to has cold onions and tomatoes with the pitas, these were warmed and were outstanding. We also added the side of fresh veggies. These were awesomer. We didn't ask about substitutions so we just took the meals with the seasoned rice. But don't worry, we stuck close to keto and skipped the rice... Not. Bye bye ketosis, and yes, it was worth every grain of rice. This was the awesomest. "That looks good I'll just try one bite." turned into, "I should really stop eating this." which turned to, "Forget it, I'm eating this." Absolutely phenomenal. We were packed so we skipped dessert, but my daughter did butter them up for a bonus to go cup of mint lemonade. Derrick rules!!!! If you live in or visit the area, this just be on your weekly to-do list. Oh yeah.... garlic whip. read more

Perfect little gem that was recommended to us by friends who recently visited Legoland! It is located literally right next to legoland beach retreat and across from legoland. In the Publix plaza. We randomly stopped by and thankfully it was not packed at that time. It's small, cozy, nicely decorated, clean and beautiful. Staff immediately greeted us and accommodated us (family of 4: 2 adults and 2 kids ages 7 and 6) without a reservation. We highly recommend to call a head. We took our chances and thankfully there were a few tables available but it does fill up quickly. The live music is a plus. Super calming and enjoyable. Not too loud and perfect for this restaurant. Now let's get a the best part! The food!! We love Mediterranean food and this place just tops it off. Amazing! I ordered the chicken kabob the first night and I was a bit worried because it can come out dry but this place makes it juicy and tender!! The best flavor too. The next night I tried the chicken shawarma and that one was just as good! They both come with delicious side of rice. The rice is unique! Never tried something like it but it was addicting. Garlic whip and Tzatziki dip on the side too. My husband tried the Beef Kafta Kabob. Pretty tasty! He also ordered a side of Gyro bread and omg!! The kids couldn't stop eating it. With a side of hummus you can eat massive amounts of it. So good!! Loved the fact that they had a few side items for kids. We ordered chicken tenders, Mac & cheese, and French fries. However, it wasn't your typical chicken or fries. The chef really stepped it up with the presentation. My kids loved it. Dessert: Assorted Baklava topping to the best meal ever. The staff was great with accommodating all of us and the chefs wife stopped by to greet us and check in on our experience. Everyone was sooo friendly. You definitely need to try it. You won't be disappointed! We came here two nights in a row. Very consistent with the great quality of food. Make sure to stop by if you are near legoland!! read more

Great dining experience overall. It's easy to miss this place which is located in a typical strip mall, but it has so much to offer - great authentic food, nice service and pleasant ambience. I grew up in the Middle East, and always look for authentic hummus and falafel and I can confidently say this is one the best quality and authentic I have eaten in the US in many years. If I stayed here for longer I would definitely try more items. Huge plus for understanding and making Vegan dishes and taking care of dietary restrictions. read more

Mediterranean Fresh Grill - Mediterranean platter with Hummus, tabbouleh, smoked eggplant (Baba ghanouj), grape leaves, falafel - Lebanese Near Me - Winter Haven, Florida

Some of the best meals happen in places that feel a little like a secret, and this restaurant is exactly that. The food was exceptional. Every dish tasted thoughtful and well-balanced, the kind of cooking where you can tell someone is paying attention to the details. It's rare to leave a meal talking about everything you ordered, but we did. What makes a small restaurant special is when the food is memorable and the people are just as good--and this place absolutely delivers on both. We'll be back, and we'll definitely be recommending it to friends. read more

Located in a strip shopping center near Legoland, this restaurant caught my attention with its outstanding reviews. I started my evening with the recommended mint lemonade; followed by the Lebanese Style Grouper, with a creamy white sauce on the side, served with seasoned rice and a side salad. The dinner was beautifully presented and so delicious; the staff, attentive. A lovely dining experience. read more

Mediterranean Fresh Grill is a restaurant located next to Legoland Florida. My family didn't want to eat at the restaurants located on property for dinner, so we took a look at nearby restaurants in Yelp and saw this one. Mediterranean Fresh Grill is awesome! We walked into the restaurant Saturday night, with no reservation. The manager at the time was able to seat us within 5 minutes. The restaurant was packed! There was also a live singer singing some sweet ballads! The restaurant ambiance is romantic. This is a great date night spot! We were really lucky to find this restaurant on Yelp. The food quality and quantity was amazing, especially for the price being relatively inexpensive. For an appetizer, we requested the hummus with chicken and per recommendation from the waiter, we also ordered the fried cauliflower. Unfortunately, the hummus when arrived at the table, was missing the chicken. We informed the waiter and shortly afterwards the team member had brought out the chicken to mix with the hummus. The fried cauliflower was very good. The texture was crisp on the outside. The sauce was super flavorful. For the entrée, we had chicken kabobs. The chicken was juicy and flavorful. The rice was light and fluffy. It had a good amount of butter. It complimented the chicken perfectly. My daughter had ordered the chicken tenders and French fries. Unfortunately, we missed out on dessert. Next time, we'll have to try some additional items off their menu! read more

We live in town and order from here often. Love their food. It's not cheap but totally worth it. We will continue to order. My 3 star is to express my disappointment in having missing items so often when we order delivery. Today it was the awesome garlic whip that comes with the two dishes ordered. That whip makes the dish. It seems an item is missing about once every 6 orders. Just too often. read more

GREAT FOOD, GREAT SERVICE, LIVE MUSIC... WHAT ELSE COULD YOU ASK FOR. A nice place for a nice date night. I always enjoy the house salad. I tried the... MIXED GRILL 4 SKEWERS Chicken, Beef, Kafta and Shrimp kabob grilled to perfection served with garlic and tzatziki. read more

If you're visiting from out of the area (Legoland guests) and decide to dine here, maybe not the best choice for you. Apparently tables are by reservations. We waited for awhile even though a table nearby was free. Took a while to get our drinks ordered. Then another while to place our orders. We did get falafels on the house, but utensils took a while. When asked, the waiter semi motioned to eat with ours hands. Which was all a little strange because the "usuals" had service much quicker. Food however was decent. Flavors were there. Kinda sucks how the lemonade was not refillable. Owner did ask if everything was okay. read more

Our server was incredible, fast and efficient. The food was amazing. I got the beef kabobs and they were very tender and perfectly seasoned. My friend had the gyro and I had a taste. It was quite good. The ingredients are fresh and the chef uses the best quality. The inside is so relaxing with the music and decor. The pictures inside are beautiful and were all taken by the owners. I highly recommend this place if you want good fresh food. read more

My niece recommended MFG for lunch as she'd been before and as someone who enjoys new places I WS excited to give it a try. I was not disappointed at all, everything from the cleanliness, safety protocols to the great staff was unbelievable. As a retired Soldier I have eaten at some unbelievable places around the world and though small in size the MFG definitely highlighted the use of fresh ingredients, herbs and spices,and colorful dishes the the Mediterranean area is known for. Our server Lisa made the experience even better with her personality and taking the time to ask our names which was icing on the cake. Our eyes were bigger than our stomachs as we ordered tabbouleh, flash fried cauliflower, kibbeh, a shrimp skewer, lamb gyro, and extra spicy potatoes. So yes our table had runneth over and we loved it all. It all came out hot and delicious. Not only was the food delicious it was also visually appealing. Oh and ordered a 3 grill skewer and cheesecake baklava to go. So go and be amazed. read more

We door dashed to Legoland hotel and everything came as expected. We got the lentil soup which was flavorful. We got a platter with falafel, hummus, tabbouleh, pita, and falafel. There was a container of fried pita pieces but I wasn't sure what for. Maybe to go it he tabbouleh salad? Not normally served that way but they were good. We just dipped them in hummus. We also added extra pita and falafel. All very good. The extra falafel seemed a bit overpriced. For three croquettes it was an extra $10. read more
