The food is fresh and fantastic. Best mezze platter, especially falafel, dolmas, hummus and pita. Fantastic value.

Chicken salad should've been white meat. It is not. I hate it. I ate 2 bites and throwing the rest away. It's basically all gross dark meat. read more

The Mediterranean - This is not the Chicken Salad that I thought I was getting. It's all dark meat. - Greek Near Me - Concord, California

I was in Concord and came across this little hole in the wall food spot that I had never noticed before, even though I drive through this area regularly. I'm glad I decided to give it a try because the food was delicious and the portions were generous for the price. The service was great fast, friendly, and welcoming. Since it was my first visit, the staff was very helpful in answering my questions and making recommendations. Overall, it was a great experience, and I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in the area. read more

Overall, many times really good, sometimes not good. Last times, I went it was really good, but the time before wasn't that great, but really good customer service over the years. I feel like they were tired of working there, but I don't blame them. Old school ambiance and not super clean looking, but does the job. Parking can be rough. read more

This spot is in Park n Shop and really stands out to me for their food and service. It's a mom and pop restaurant which has great food, prices and wonderful service. You order at the counter and the turn around is very fast. The produce is fresh and my lamb was very flavorful. The owner/chef is very friendly. I had the spicy lamb wrap which was HUGE and had the freshest of ingredients. The sauce has the perfect amount of spice for me. A must try if you are in the mood for some healthy Mediterranean food! read more

Food was good. Tzatziki sauce was made fresh. Baklava was definitely made in house and was really great. I think for what you get, it is priced high. The customer service is really great and they're very friendly so they get 4 stars. read more

I love the freshness and flavors of the food. It is consistently good. I used to come almost weekly when I worked close by. I hadn't been in a few years and missed it so much. I went today and it was just as delicious as I remembered. I always would get the chicken salad and it was just as yummy as always. read more

Really good Mediterranean food in a causal and cozy cafe located in a strip mall. Went here to celebrate a coworkers birthday and throughly enjoyed my meal. We were a group of 7 and they let us order our food and pay for our food individually after. The staff is so friendly and accommodating. Their food is fresh and delicious with decent size portions. The locals know this is a gem of a restaurant and lots of ppl were grabbing lunch while we were there. read more

Wow the food here is great, amazing service and the food came out very quickly. Very authentic cultural vibes inside. Great for a humble vegan such as myself with many options. The falafel wrap was nice and filling, served in a lavash wrap. I could tell they make everything in-house, with a nice fresh taste. I can tell they take pride in the food they serve! 11/10 would recommend! Only complaint I have is that I'm too full! Hahaha which is definitely not a bad thing. read more

My friends and I stopped by Concord for the Creative Concord arts festival and we dined at The Mediterranean for a late lunch. Ordering is done at the counter, but you pay for your food after you finish your meal and you bus your own table. I ordered a lamb shawarma wrap while my wife ordered the combo shawarma platter, which came with two sides and some pita. We ended up getting the baba ghanoush and side salad as our two sides. For the shawarma, the lamb tasted like a braised lamb rather the the type of lamb you typically get off a street cart that's sliced off a rotisserie. The lamb was not a juicy as I would've liked it to be, but you certainly get a lot of it in the wrap if you're looking to fill up on a lot of protein. The chicken from the combo platter was also a bit on the dry side. The pita included on the side was pretty unremarkable: I've definitely had fluffier, fresher pitas elsewhere. Overall, I like to support small businesses over large chains whenever there is an opportunity. However, despite the friendly folks working behind the counter, the food was unfortunately not special enough for me to seek it out a second time. read more

12 June 2024 We watched Mark Weins on YouTube last night eating lamb in Turkey (Turkey the country ha ha). I Want Lamb Now ! We walked towards this -new to us- lamb serving restaurant with apprehension. We are afraid to take a chance on having a poor experience. My wife agrees with me. "If it looks sketchy, we will turn around and eat at Kevin's Vietnamese place. We know that Kevin's is good." We enter and are the only customers. A bad omen? The chef, while washing his hands, greets us very warmly. The place looks clean and quiet and there is a nice breeze floating around. I ask for a recommendation and the chef suggests several options. I choose the lamb salad and my wife the falafel wrap. We choose a table with a modest comfortable cushion and the chef begins his whirling dervish act. He is preparing the dishes with graceful movements and clanging sounds. I then notice that I am in an establishment with signs on the restroom door. "For customers only". Not only that but the dreaded "OUT OF ORDER!" sign is yelling at me. Another really bad omen? I'm thinking, "How can I enjoy my meal with my bowels shaking in fear?" The food arrives promptly. We both enjoy the meal as several other guests arrive ordering food to go. The dervish does his magic and no customer is left wanting or waiting for long. We order baklava and it has a very satisfying but not too sweet delicious sweetness. My stomach begins to rumble. I knew this would happen and I'm embarrassed to challenge the "You're out of luck Bub" sigh on the restroom door with the second employee. "Is this out of service?" I point at the restroom and beg with a worried face. "It is in service now" She says, granting me clemency. If you here for nothing else, order something and use the restroom. It is like Finding Elmo and The Incredible Mr. Limpet combined. A visual virtual masterpiece. I suggest not using it under the influence though. read more

Updating to say, they're still the best! Came for my norm- the chicken kabob plate with Greek salad topped with feta, a side of their creamy hummus with a dolma & the most amazing & flavorful falafel (& tzatziki) you've ever had! We love the owners & eat here at least 3 times a month! We also usually have some turkish coffee with a piece of baklava while we wait for our food, always such a nice treat! read more

It's Mediterranean food in a plaza. I was greeted with a smile when I walked in. The staff are nice. The ambience for lunch was quiet. I walked in really craving that Mediterranean flavor, the garlics, lemons, olive oil. Sweet, acidic, savory. Sometimes creamy! So I ordered a chicken platter combo, it comes with the protein, 2 sides, 1 pita, 1 dolma, and rice. Pros: service was fast, staff friendly, ready to serve side dishes. Portion was good. The DOLMA (it is bursting with flavor, you have to try it). The chicken was cooked well. Cons: In my opinion, flavors of the food were flat. The tabbouleh was lack-luster, it contained the quinoa, tomatoes and cucumbers, but I was missing the flavors of lemons, even herbs like mint/parsley. The bakdonsieh was the diced tomatoes, cucumbers, drowning in this cream sauce, but that's all I could taste was cream. No acidity, no fresh herbs to brighten the salad. The babaganoush was bland. Not enough garlic, lemon, or the expected nuttiness from tahini. To conclude, I was still craving Mediterranean food, but now I am full and left disappointed. The dolma was the star for me. I hope they use this review as a way to change the trajectory of their business because they do seem like lovely people, but it's difficult to support a small local business if what you are selling is not great. Thank you for the food. read more

Have ordered from this restaurant via Doordash many times, ordering different items. The food is always excellent, and the portions are huge. (One order gives me two generous meals.) Highly recommend the gyros plate, which has become my favorite; it comes with multiple options for sides. Everything is consistently delicious! read more

Absolutely delicious to-go salad. Good portion size, delectable meat (so juicy, perfect texture, robust flavor), veggies are crisp and fresh. Generous amount of meat in this salad -- it is a 1:1 meat to salad ratio. My only feedback/recommendation is that they offer tzatziki sauce with the plate (the one pictured was requested and is a meager ration!) and a small offering of hummus/pita bread on the side for this ~$14 salad. read more

Excellent wraps and plates. Super flavorful food and quick service. A great break from traditional lunches.

I had lunch there today. I loved it and will come back. I had the chicken with a Greek salad. Everything was wonderful. They were friendly.

I've been coming here for the past 20 years and I'm surprised I've never reviewed the place. It's located in the "Park and Shop" which has recently become a foodie destination with the plethora of new restaurants. The food here has been consistently good, fresh and authentic for the past two decades. Service has always been good and I love the murals on the walls. If you love Mediterranean food like I do and you happen to be at the Park and Shop in concord then definitely give it a try. You won't be disappointed. read more

The Mediterranean - Vegetarian combo plater (hummos, Baba Gannouj, Falafel Balls, Dolmas, Pita, salads) - Greek Near Me - Concord, California

Obsessed with this place, for years. When I used to live with my Uncle in Martinez, this would be one place we would get dinner from. Food - Definitely the lamb shawarma is the way to go. Your plate can come with two sides and I always get the babaganoush and the hummus. The babaganoush is to DIE for. All of it is so delicious and well made to be honest. I never have any complaints about the food. Service - Always greeted with smiles. I've never had a bad experience with the employees here. And they make the food so fast - so honestly no complaints at all. Environment - Beautiful wall art! I think they really try to make it as if you are truly in Greece. It's a small restaurant, I've only eaten in maybe twice? But I usually just take it to-go! The parking lot is huge as it's kind of in a plaza and it can be challenging to find parking especially if it's a busy day. Overall - one my favorite Mediterranean spots here in Cali. They are definitely hard to find so I'm happy that there's one nearby. read more

It's ok. If you frequent the 99-Ranch strip mall in Concord on Willow Pass, you must have walked by this Mediterranean restaurant multiple times. We sure did; and finally got the chance to try today. It's an all around "ok" experience and nothing to write home about. Really nothing special. We ordered the lamb kabob combo and the chicken kabob combo - both tasted very similar with some weird sauce on top. The combo comes w 2 sides, 1 dolma, 1 pita bread. For our aides, we picked hummus and baba ganoush. Everything was just - meh. Eatable but not tasty nor bad. Hummus was a but bland, baba ganoush lacked the sophistication in flavors that you'll find many where else. We did not like the red weird sauce on top; i wish they asked us if we wanted it on the side or not at all. We dined in but dishes were served in to-go ware. Don't like this either. It looks like a husband and wife team w only 2 people working. Overall fast, kind of friendly and efficient - earned themselves another star. Overall an 'OK'' experience. read more

Popped in here after shopping at Ranch 99. Ordered a lamb wrap and sides of hummus and mujaddara salad to take home. Service was very friendly and fast. One of the men making the food was very fast and efficient as he took orders and cooked food. He was impressive. There were tables to sit at inside. I took my order to go. I thought my lamb wrap was really good. The meat was really moist and flavorful. The mujaddara salad was flavorful and well seasoned. I will definitely try it again in the future. read more

You must go here! The food is delicious and flavorful, and so fresh! This is clearly a family business and they are clearly going through the post pandemic struggle. If there is ever time to support local and help the small business owner, the time is now! I got a chicken shawarma plate and they made the chicken right then and there on the grill. The portion was big enough for two meals for me. Prices are a bit high for the plate, but again the portion was quite large so I didn't mind paying at all! You get to pick the sides and see them for yourself, which I think is a bonus especially for people who aren't used to Mediterranean style food. I felt all the sides were also fresh, though made beforehand and very flavorful. This place is in a shopping center, so don't miss it or pass by without trying it. Decor is super cute inside, again you can just see how much love was put into this restaurant. I will definitely be back! read more

This place is a hidden gem! I initially came in for their Turkish Delight (lokum) and baklava desserts, because those are so rare to find. Amazing and delicious, they have a confectioner make it for them, very authentic. Then I got their food, and that did not disappoint! Chicken shawarma is light and fresh, wrapped in a beautiful thin lavash, so good! Super fresh tabbouleh salad was crunchy and herbaceous with parsley. I got this to go, but it is a cute cafe to sit in, too. Very friendly people run the place, you can tell they put their heart into it. read more

This place is the BEST ever. Highly recommended. Great family business. Been going there off and on since the nineties and the quality has never dropped off at all. I love the shawarma, the chicken skewers and the gyros. Have not found better falafel anywhere in the east bay. read more

Totally agree with other reviews, it's just ok. The chicken schwarma combo comes with a lot but just not flavorful. The chicken wasn't that good, the combo comes with rice and 2 sides.

The Mediterranean - Chicken Schwarma - Greek Near Me - Concord, California

I don't live in the area any longer but it was a must to get some food to take home because it was always my favorite for a lamb schwarma and baba ghanoush. I told the clerk too. Asked for extra tahini sauce, they gave me a tiny container on the side and NONE on the schwarma. Very little veg on it. The baba ghanoush was okay but not the same. I asked for a baklava and they didn't put one in my bag. Overall disappointing when I was looking forward to enjoying my fav after a couple years! read more

I was greeted immediately with a smile and that is usually a sign of good customer service. I ordered the Chicken Shawerma Plate to go. Total was roughly $16.50 if you round to nearest quarter cent. My parents and I love it. It is enough for 2 people. The chicken, rice and sauce is really good. Lots of meat to go with the rice. The white sauce and red sauce goes well together. Not too spicy, not too creamy. Perfect balance. My parents ate the dolma and asked if I got more but I did not lol. I will order that next time for them. Loved the hummus. I do wish that the pita was a warm/hot. It wasn't stale but it could've made the dip better with the hot/cold contrast. I definetely would come back. Need to try their Lamb Shawerma or Kebab and other sides they have. read more
