I was in the mood for something healthier and saw Garbanzo was a nearby option. I ordered to go and got their Harissa chicken bowl and new high protein bowl for my partner. Everything was flavorful and filling! A solid option for something more nutritious and filling nearby. read more

Garbanzo - NEW! High Protein Bowl - Mediterranean Near Me - St. Louis, Missouri

See all

Garbanzo is a very small place on the edge of Clayton that always delivers tasty & healthy Mediterranean foods at a reasonable price point. The kind of place you drop by to grab a bit between errands or to meet up with a close friend. I like the gyros and the salads. They have recently scaled back on sized which I appreciate more than raising prices. And they still put in plenty of the yummy things just seem to have cut back most of the overage of romaine. The team is always keeping busy tidying up, cleaning between customers which makes it easy to come back too. read more

Garbanzo - New! High Protein Power Bowl - Mediterranean Near Me - St. Louis, Missouri

Think Mediterranean chipotle! I love the build your own bowls here and the food was really good. pro tip: ask for the sauce on the side so you can control how much you add. I got the high protein bowl and it came with a pita on the side. Service was very quick and the staff was nice. They have a bit patio too which is nice for a fast service place! I think this will quickly become a go to for me when I need a healthy dinner option and don't want to cook. read more

The food and the ambiance were excellent. The service was quick and friendly. Highly recommended.

I've been frequenting this place for over 5 years and honestly there's no other restaurant in its genre that can compete with it. I can't put a price tag on quality food! read more

Food mediocre at best. What brings this restaurant down is its inconsistent hours. The door says 9:00 but I have been there twice in the last month an hour plus before 9:00 and the chairs are up, food is off the line, and the employees say they are closed. ???? I thought clean up started at closing?? read more

The food is soo good always a 10/10 when I visit. The service is always good as well. read more

Garbanzo - Harissa chicken bowl - Mediterranean Near Me - St. Louis, Missouri

I was going to order food for pick up, but then I saw they were charging for a tip, for pick up service. Nope.

The food was fresh and delicious. Super quick servings at the counter and you're able to add whatever toppings you want. The place was cute with a variety of sodas and deserts as well. One of my new favorites in STL! read more

Garbanzo - Harissa Chicken Bowl - Mediterranean Near Me - St. Louis, Missouri

No lie, this place reminds me of a Mediterranean Chipotle. But better quality. It was a pretty clean and nice area, and the employees were nice. I ordered a Spicy chicken plate with everything on it. They have an assortment of options for meat and sides. All their drinks are organic, both carbonated and non-carbonated. Wasn't bad, just do not expect simple flavors when going there. We had a side of fries, and it was fresh and seasoned well. Def a place I'm going to come back to since I stay nearby read more

First time visiting Garbanzo. Think of Chipotle, but Mediterranean style regarding the set up of the restaurant. Nice and clean, organized, friendly staff, and convenient parking (had its own lot as well as street parking). I ordered the falafel plate which was very filling for the price, especially since I was allowed go select a multitude of add-ons. I also bought a shareable French fry - delish! Seasoned just right, hot and fresh. As for their drink options, organic soda beverages, teas, and lemonades. The Kola Cola was really good! On Mondays they offer a free fry with any entree, so check them out!! read more

We came here to pick up food to go twice this week. Their rice bowls are good. It is filling and has enough meat to rice portion. Service was quick. There is a small lot next to this place so we parked there. read more

Garbanzo - Mediterranean Near Me - St. Louis, Missouri

Delish! I'll definitely order here again. Their falafel wrap & the fresh pita chips were amazing.

Pretty underwhelmed. The portions were tiny. The flavor was good (I got the chicken plate with allll the add ons), and I loved the sauces and the variety, but there needed to be more. The pita was also super good and fluffy but would have enjoyed it with some more hummus to dip in. Wouldn't order again, to be honest. read more

Outstanding service! At the end of the day before closing, they were very generous with the meat portion.

Came here today for a little snack. I got the falafels with tzatziki sauce. It was decent. I honestly think they are used to be bigger. Flavor was there and sauce was tasty. Staff was friendly and helpful. read more

I ordered a salad and one of the ingredients was supposed to be rice. I didn't get my rice. Portion size was poor (probably better if it had the rice I ordered). read more

In a state where every other place is fried chicken of some kind, Garbanzo offers salads that are both delicious and nutritious. Definitely recommend! read more

Such good quality ingredients! So fresh! Fast service and a lower price meal than going to a dine in restaurant. Loved that you can add as many toppings as you want! read more

Garbanzo - Falafel plate - Mediterranean Near Me - St. Louis, Missouri

I love this place so much. It's Mediterranean chipotle and they really pack your bowls so full you can have 2 meals for $14. It's incredible for takeout and service is fast. Lots of parking just around the corner! read more

Garbanzo - Traditional Gyro - Mediterranean Near Me - St. Louis, Missouri

Walk here quite frequently with coworkers. It is a Mediterranean version of Chipotle - quick, easy, and delicious. The service is fast and the food is fresh. I always get the plate with chicken with a side of pita. It is an inexpensive meal for Clayton. The inside is extremely cold, so we always sit outside or take it to go. There's plenty of seating outdoors. read more

Garbanzo - Mediterranean Near Me - St. Louis, Missouri

I was pretty unimpressed with my most recent experience. I was going to order online, but I saw it would take about 30 minutes and I was close by so I went to order in person. The person who took my order seemed really confused by everything I was saying - I asked for a bowl with rice and she put the lettuce in first. Then she added half a scoop of rice on top. I decided to just continue with the order and I asked for garbanzo beans and she put olives because the garbanzo beans weren't in the correct place. I wanted to start over, but another employee told her not to. I didn't want to waste, so I finished my order and checked out. The bowl was definitely not worth the cost, especially because it wasn't really what I asked for. I thought maybe it was just my ordering that was confusing, but I also asked for a side of fries and the person checking me out asked her to make another order. He had to ask her multiple times and she had to clarify multiple times. The fries were disgusting - super salty and cold. read more

The food and vibe was amazing. The workers were very friendly and cooperative since it was our first time being there. They kindly explained to us how to build our plate and recommended some items like the spicy chicken or gyro. We've been to multiple mediterranean places before, but nothing as fresh and delicious as this place. Definitely our new go to spot!! read more

Nice staff and lots of fresh veggies to choose from. I love how you can customize your order. I ordered a bowl with gyro meat. Good sized portion and mostly delicious. My only complaint is the gyro meat was dry. read more

Went in last night for an early dinner and had the place to ourselves. They loaded up my salad with everything I wanted and I left feeling happily full after a delicious meal. Their tzatziki and signature white sauce are to die for--I always get some on the side! Great semi-healthy meal spot! read more

Garbanzo - Portabello Salad - Mediterranean Near Me - St. Louis, Missouri

This is my mediterranean go-to! Chef's. Kiss. Order: * chicken bowl, with almost all the fixins + pita bread * fries * bakalava They do NOT skimp on any of the ingredients OR the sauce you want in your bowl! I think I asked for 3 sauces because we love to try new things. Let me tell you, there was so much in that bowl that I had that bowl for lunch, dinner and not gonna lie, a little bit for breakfast. Fries |I love potatoes in all of its forms. Theirs is cut like a thicker shoestring. (Think jack n the box circa early 2000s) It's a seasoned fry but not drenched in seasoning like a traditional seasoned fry. It's got more mush than crunch which is totally fine by me. There was crunch though! I ordered to go, so the moisture probably softened it up in the plastic to go bag. Baklava | I only wish it was a bigger slice. That is the only complaint! So much goodness packed into this small crunchy, honey, nut, dessert pastry. It was almost $4 for something that was smaller than my palm. Très sad. I did order for pickup. The parking lot was PACKED so I had to walk a few blocks just for pick up but when I went in there were only a few tables open and 2 parties in line. Luckily there is shelving to pick up to-go orders so I was in and out. I want so badly to be a regular, but for my order it was a little over $21 which I guess is okay because it was two meals for me, but for reference to others, I am the queen of leftovers. read more

great food, fresh, and friendly service. I would come here every week if they were closer to saint charles

Wow! I tried this the first time today after leaving a business meeting in Clayton. I arrived ahead of the scheduled time and it was already ready. I am incredibly impressed. I had a rice bowl with gyro meat. The taste was delicious, the toppings were fresh, the size of the bowl and the pita on the side were a great value for the price. I will definitely be back! read more

The food is amazing! They use the freshest ingredients and it's cooked to perfection! The service is good too. The people are friendly and know their stuff. It's a small corner cafe and the atmosphere is just that cozy and inviting. 10/10 would definitely recommend!!!!! read more

This is a gyro palace with extras. They have bowls with yellow rice and vegetables. It's Mediterranean with a great atmosphere. Service was fast, kind of like chipotle. I ate the Lafa with Gyro meat. It was a little different than the normal Gyro with rice and vegetables. But overall, it was very good and cheaper for the location. read more

Not good food tasteless I will not eat there again or recommend it to anyone. I have had better Mediterranean food in StLouis

My wife and I met up for lunch here today and really enjoyed it! It's a chain restaurant, kind of like if Chipotle had a Mediterranean cousin that was really into organic food. Lots of fresh options to customize your meal. We each got salads with different proteins and toppings. All organic sodas in the fountain and organic lemonade and teas also. We tried a couple of tea/lemonade combos while we were there. All very good! Plenty of seating, both inside and on their patio area. Parking was a little tough, but it's downtown Clayton, so you'll have that everywhere. Overall a lovely lunch. Grabbed the catering menu to bring back to the office for our next meeting! read more

I generally do not like Mediterranean food, but I actually really like this place. The sauces are zangy and good, food is fresh, and the quality is there. To be honest, I have only tried the falafel (vegetarian), so I can't speak for the meat, but it's good. It's also a hefty portion size--I get the plate with an extra pita and it feeds for for two lunches. Service is fantastic. When I order online, it's ready to go when I get there and includes everything I need. The people there are very nice and I don't feel like a bother when I need to pick up. Like I don't need to awkwardly wait to pick up--they see me and engage with me quickly. Really appreciate that. It's a very clean place inside--very open, airy, and friendly. Lots of space, but not the best for parking. I think I don't like Mediterranean food after a few misses with the sauces that were too bitter and maybe spoiled, but this is now the only place I will eat Mediterranean food from. I trust it unconditionally since they have consistently delivered great food. TLDR; best falafel I've had in STL. read more

This was so good! It's kind of like a Mediterranean Qdoba. You choose between a bowl, salad, wrap or plate and then add whatever toppings you like which includes hummus, pickled veggies, roasted veggies, fresh veggies, cheeses, meats, and sauces. The prices are very reasonable and you get a lot of food. Cute little place on an easily accessible corner in Clayton. Even has a small parking lot and outside seating. read more

it sucked and I did not like it the food was stale and the chicken was soggy but most of all THE WATER WAS DRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WOW!!!! Found the midwestern edition of Cava. FINALLY. You walk in and its a chipotle-style mediterranean grill. Your offered some falafel and choose between greens, grains, or pita or some combination of any. Pick your carb : rice, beans, etc., protein (chicken, lamb, etc.) and toppings (feta, tzatiki, etc.) and voila you have your creation. Absolutely excellent tasting, good prices, and quick line. Decent amount of seating inside, not a whole lot of parking. I am literally thrilled I found this joint- been having Cava withdrawals every since I moved to STL from NYC and this fills that void! Highly recommend for lunch, dinner, anytime actually. Price- 10/10 Food Taste - 10/10 Service - N/A Filling Cava void in my heart - 10/10 read more

This spot here is a favorite in my household, always very quick and reliable. I love me some Mediterranean and they always take care of me. Can never go wrong with the gyro or the chicken plate. Have the option of mixing up what you get with the plate and I tend to switch it up from time to time. Their pita is always fresh! If you're a Mediterranean fan be sure to hit them up. read more

Tried the chicken laffa wrap. Large selection of choices allow you customize for your taste. Service was good they handled the busy lunch smoothly. read more

The Chipotle of Mediterranean food. Nothing was bad, but nothing stood out as special to me. A good way to have a quick, semi-healthy lunch. My husband and I were a little frustrated that we were offered pita with our salads as if it was part of the dish, but came to learn upon reviewing receipt it is an add-on. The pita bread was good. I also enjoyed some seasonal hummus and a variety of tasty salad toppers. However, for the price, I'd rather get the same thing from a local spot, and at a full-service restaurant. read more
