Little spot tucked away along California st. I really enjoyed my shrimp entree. And my husband's beef dish was super flavorful and moist. The rice was really good. The only thing was the dressing on the salad was too vinegary for me and I wasn't able to finish that. Overall, if you like/love Mediterranean food - a great place to check out. read more

Popped into Al's Mediterranean in his new location in Jacksonville, Or. The spot is tucked in a bit with a currently bare courtyard with outdoor tables. Tricky to spot but worth the effort. Al greeted us at the door like an old friend. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The decor is warm with evil eye protectors and a deep green paint. Makes the restaurant seem cozy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The smells of sumac, pepper, and 100 other spices add to the ambiance and anticipation of what was to come.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We ordered tea and the warm hummus and pita. The bread was warm and soft and I would bet it's homemade. Hummus was silky smooth and well spiced. The falafel, red lentil soup and the special of the day were all delicious. I would wax poetically, but I'm too full. As far as dining dollars go, this will be high on the list for us as to where to spend them. I lived in Turkey for a bit and this brought back all the feels a good deal of nostalgia. I highly recommend! read more

Charming rustic Mediterranean restaurant on California Street in Jacksonville just before it becomes Hwy. 238. The food is super fresh and absolutely delicious. I recommend EVERYTHING on the menu!!! Al's Turkish tea and Turkish coffee are wonderful on a cold winter day. Oh! I highly recommend his warm hummus topped with warm beef sausage. And the arugula salad, which is large enough to share. So good. BTW: The service is great as well: Warm, friendly, efficient. [[HIGHLIGHT]]In the summer there is outdoor seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] This place is great! Do yourself a favor and give it a try ... if you can get in!!! read more

I first tried Al's Mediterranean food truck at an Arco gas station in Grants Pass, Oregon. I was super skeptical at first but I had come to love the food! Two years later I came back excited to give him a visit and was disappointed the truck was no longer there. Fast forward to 2023 I knew I had to find this guy! I was so happy he still had his truck and hopefully moved to his permanent location here in Medford. People might think there is competition but in reality, there isn't all the other food trucks/pods offer different cuisines... I know he uses the concept meat of the day but I wish Al offered 2 kinds of meat such as chicken and beef or beef/lamb and chicken, chicken and pork... you can see where I am going with this. The chicken he made last time was so juicy and delicious. This time the lamb/beef combo was ok but very flavorful! After looking at the menu I realized he uses only 1 meat and makes them 6 ways; pita bread, French Roll, tortilla, on a bed of rice, another on a bed of rice but served with pitas and on a salad. I have to say this makes one's life easier but it also perfects his craft. His food is solid and absolutely delicious! If you're hungry get the plate! Also his hummus and carrot bomb is off the charts! read more

I usually take pictures of my food before I eat it, but this stuff was so incredibly delicious and smelled so wonderful that I didn't. I will definitely be going back & will take pictures then. The hostess and waitress were very accommodating and answered any questions I had about their menu and made a few recommendations that were pretty incredible. Al's will definitely be going on our food rotation. read more

Jacksonville really needs quality food options and this place is a fantastic addition. Our group of four agreed that everything we ordered - lamb, salad, soup, hummus, falafel, steak, pita, all of it - was delicious! The falafel was the best I've had since I was in Turkey. I'll be back for more! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The inside vibe and decor is great[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] and Al was very friendly and helpful with our menu questions. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's small and there aren't many tables so make a reservation, but do eat here, you won't be sorry![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

My family went to have lunch here and checked out the new place. The food took a minute but it was well worth the wait! Everything we had was fresh and so delish! We also had the tea and coffee and everything was perfect! I highly recommend!! read more

This place is delicious. The chicken plate is what my husband loves to get. The salad that comes with it is out of this world. However, my favorite thing is Al's hummus. He makes it himself fresh and it is the best hummus I have ever had. Don't tell my father in law... I will be disowned. *Chefs kiss* we will be back again and again! read more

Best restaurant in JacksonVille!! Amazing food, authentic, flavorful. Always specials!!!

We came in on a Friday afternoon, only three carts were open so we landed on Al's Mediterranean food. The guy who helped us was very helpful in describing all the foods. He said the signature plate was the most popular item on the menu so we ordered that. I'm not sure what the meat was but we got what he recommended and boy was it good. The meat was tender, literally falling off the bone. It was like a stew, pot roast flavor. We got level five spicy which was compared to jalapeños, next time we will definitely have to level up the spice. The rice had so much flavor with every bite. It also came with naan, which was so warm and soft. We got the Purple paradise as our side, which was beets I believe. Such a fresh and addicting flavor, let alone such a pleasing pink color. I will definitely have to try and recreate this flavor at home. This food truck definitely lived up to its positive recommendations, will definitely be back! read more

This was such a good find, one of those run don't walk places! I got the salad with feta it was perfection, not the best looking dish in a togo box but so flavorful and delicious. The cashier was very friendly he asked me if I was from out of town and invited me to an international event taking place this weekend, too bad I am from out of town looks like fun! Will have to return to try the rest of the menu when I come back to town. read more

This place is a gem! Authentic and delicious. Loved everything we've tried from here so far. High recommend.

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Great new restaurant in Jacksonville, which has needed an interesting new restaurant.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Very traditional Mediterranean food, the Hummus combination plate is the best. Truly unique original tastes. The Turkish tea is so good and perfect to start the meal. By the way, Al (the owner) is so welcoming and makes you feel at home as soon as you walk in the door. The chicken shish kebab was perfectly cooked and spiced. The pita was warm and delicious. And, finally, to end the meal, the rice pudding is one of the best deserts I've ever had in my life. The meal was so good, it made me want to take a trip to Turkey! I am so happy for Al and I am so happy for Jacksonville. read more

Went there for the first time and was told 20 minutes before I could order. No problem, I checked out the other food trucks. 30 minutes later I could order. Waited 30 more minutes while he was working on the order and gave up. Had to get a refund and go somewhere else. Al was super nice the whole time and the sample he gave me was awesome. Came back recently to try it again and his spot was empty. read more
