Not sure how I haven't discovered this place sooner but food was really flavorful. the salad was fresh, chicken was crispy & juicy, pita bread & hummus really hit and the plate was filled to the brim. I still have enough leftovers for dinner. The cashier was super friendly, the outdoor seating is pretty nice too. I used to go to Pita 360 down the street and now this is the new spot. highly recommend! read more

King Mediterrano - chicken kabob plate - Mediterranean Near Me - Torrance, California

If you want an inexpensive way to feed 6-8 people, you've found the perfect spot! Oh, and the food is pretty good, too. Located in a strip mall off Hawthorne just past the Galleria. It is a smallish window with covered patio seating. No indoor seating. Good for takeout or small groups. Plenty of parking. I've never really heard of Mexican Mediterranean fusion, but it kind of works. We ordered the family combo for lunch in hopes of feeding 5 dudes and 2 kids. Boy was there a lot of food and then some! Huge box of rice, another full of falafel, one for salad, one for sauces, and a random box of quesadillas. The meat was split between chicken and gyro, plus pita. Everything tasted great. The gyro was not classically shaved meat but more like cut burger patties but that wasn't exactly bad. There was plenty of food to take home for another meal or two. Will definitely be back, but next time will be more adventurous and try their fusion burritos or nachos read more

Casual Mediterranean place where you order at a window and they have covered outdoor seating. We did have a 15-20 minute wait for our food because we saw a group come and pick up bags of takeout. Shared the gyro loaded fries with a friend, and it was a lot of food. Fries were nice and crispy! I appreciated the jalapeños and olives to counter all the fat (had them on the side since my friend doesn't like either). read more

Came back. No one here. Middle of the day on a Saturday. Took 25 minutes to make one small tiny plate. Again, No one here. This place is very, very poorly run and managed. Very poorly. Update: explosive diarrhea. Explosive, everywhere. read more

An excellent little grab and go for good Mediterranean. Staff was very friendly and welcoming. Also helpful with the menu Portion sizes are quite large, the ball, can easily feed three people so feel free to get half rice and half salad. I had plenty of rice left over and I'm a big fan of the Mediterranean rice. The chicken was very well seasoned both the Shawarma and the kebab. I enjoyed the tomato cabbage and carrot mixed in, as it was fresh and not wilted or been sitting around for a while. The pita was good. The hummus was creamy and well flavored. The garlic sauce packs a punch, as it should. I liked their medium hot sauce. I mixed it with the garlic sauce for the chicken. Everything is made fresh. There is plenty of parking. read more

King Mediterrano is by far the best overall for takeout food. Their chicken is unbeatable for flavor and tenderness. Their Mediterranean food beats most 4 star restaurants in LA county. I can walk to this location and there are other choices nearby; however, King wins every time! It's never bad, always Excellent. Great customer service, friendly and they always remember you read more

Nice spot for fast casual Mediterranean food. Portions are huge and food is tasty. Plenty of parking. Seating is covered outdoor only. They don't have a bathroom for guests so you'll need to go over to Aldi's. read more

King Mediterrano - Chicken Kebob Strip Bowl. 1/2 Rice, 1/2 Spring Mix. BIG Portions! - Mediterranean Near Me - Torrance, California

King Mediterrano still reigns supreme in South Bay Mediterranean cuisine! Was fortunate to be a dinner guest at a recent meeting of 150 or so people. KM was the caterer. Diners at my table raved about the delicious hummus. Salad was tasting fresh and healthy. Pita bread and hummus, grilled chicken, and seasoned rice were all on point.. I've visited the restaurant at the large plaza off of Hawthorne Blvd and Redondo Beach Blvd off and on over the years. Will definitely have to visit them again soon! read more

Food was great. I got the gyro plate and it was very good. This is my first time trying gyro and the flavor is unique to any other flavor I had tried. It was a lot of food that I was only able to eat half of it. read more

King Mediterrano - Mediterranean Near Me - Torrance, California

January 5, 2026 | Torrance | After looking for items for my new home at several furniture stores, including falling head over heels in love with a high pile, large area rug in the area, I needed to walk away & think it over and my stomach was growling at me! I looked on YELP & discovered King Mediterrano, which was nearby! What a delicious find! Falafel Bowl | Delicious, wildly flavorful, and incredibly plentiful! Yum! I highly recommend this dish! The falafel is seasoned so well! When asked if I wanted salad or rice, I took a moment and was offered both, the half-and-half! Yes, please, and it was a great choice! I had enough food to feed several people! It definitely seems like a shareable dish, depending upon how hungry you are! The dish was even better the next day! If I could give more than five stars, I easily would for this restaurant! French Fries | Yes! They are a win! Golden, crisp on the edges, thick and just delicious!! The fries are something special, truly flavorful! I highly recommend! Customer Service | Friendly & top of the line, excellent experience from Alice! Thanks again! Even though it was near closing time, customer service was phenomenal! Alice even explained more about the restaurant, letting my best friend, I know that it was a mix of Mexican and Mediterranean fusion! Fabulous! Unique flavor and on point! Seating & Parking | Outside & plenty of space! Cute decor! Plenty of parking shared with other stores/restaurants! Overall | Absolutely! I would go back in a heartbeat! I had a great experience and the falafel dish is simply spectacular! Thanks again for excellent customer service, Alice!! And by the way, I got the area rug... Just on a different day! Hahaha! read more

Ok, I will preface by saying the ability to order online and the pickup window were super convenient. There is a ton of parking since it's in a shopping center, and the service here very helpful, quick, and nice. Lastly, the other positive for this establishment is the quantity of food. If you're looking to get full for cheap, this is your place. However, overall I did not like the food. They do market themselves as "fusion", which I guess allows them to have creative freedom over what is being served. I ordered the King Family pack, which is expected to feed 4-5 people, but in reality maybe served 7-8 people. I got 1/2 Chicken Shawarma and 1/2 Gyro as the protein, and I believe they are using the terms "shawarma" and "gyro" incorrectly... what we received was a half container of super dry chicken breast chunks and what looked like flattened hamburger patties in the other half of the styrofoam container. Neither one of these meats were prepared on a spit and shaved. The seasoning and flavor was not terrible - maybe close-ish to using a more authentic Mediterranean spice blend, but the meat was SO dry. The chicken breast chunks were disappointing, since we were expecting true shawarma (thinly sliced meat cooked on a vertical rotisserie). Same with the meat patties - which seemed like thin hamburger sliced - instead of seasoned shaved meat cooked on a rotisserie. I ordered a side of falafels, which were just OK... I wouldn't get any of those protein options ever again. It did come with a full (packed to the brim) styrofoam container of pretty decent rice and a full (also packed to the brim) of "greek salad" which contained mostly frisee and spring mix topped with diced tomatoes, diced white onions, sliced black olives, and an unusually large container of ranch dressing (and two sides of what tasted like an italian dressing or vinaigrette dressing). We also got a box of hummus (probably the best tasting thing I ate), a box of potato salad (a little runny for my taste, but flavor was ok), and pita bread (that was a little hard and stale). We lastly got a box of cheese quesadillas (very random). I didn't get to try these but they didn't look extraordinary and a bit greasy. I added on a few sauces for $6 extra - 2 really small containers of tzatziki, 2 small containers of garlic sauce, and 2 small containers of tahini. All in all, I wouldn't come back here and I wouldn't recommend this to any of my network (despite the high ratings). I WOULD probably recommend this to people who have a goal of getting full for cheap, but I was very disappointed with the quality and flavors of my $70+ meal (as well as everyone else who partook in this family meal). read more

OMG this gyro salad was the salad of my dreams!! They packed the box so full of lettuce, it was like a brick. The gyro meat was amazing, so flavorful and cooked perfectly. My partner's chicken shawarma was excellent as well. I'm already thinking about the next time I'll be eating here lol. read more

If you have the patience to wait for your meal, this place is definitely worth a visit since everything is made to order. On a typical weekday afternoon, I waited about 15-20 minutes after placing my order. The setup includes shaded outdoor seating with chairs and tables, but there's no indoor dining area. The prices may seem a bit high at first, but the portions easily make up for it as each meal is basically enough for two servings. The to-go container was packed to the brim, and I even had leftovers for another meal. The food itself was really good, but the wait time did make me question whether it's always worth it. On a side note, this spot was once ranked on Yelp's Top 100 list, which says a lot about its credibility. read more

King Mediterrano - Half & Half Plate - Mediterranean Near Me - Torrance, California

2026 update: This place is still pretty good. Been coming here for more than 10 years and there's a lot more direct competition around now. I haven't seen the siblings in years and not sure if they still work here. Overall, I feel their original menu is still the best, anything that came after Halal Guys to compete is hit or miss (eg king bowl). Don't even know if they added or changed things to compete with Kebab Shop, but I mostly stick to original menu anyway. Today I got the fusion burrito (falafel & gyro) as per usual. Feels a little lighter than the past, but still pretty huge. I think it was still great despite what others are saying, wasn't dry for me, good amount of Kings sauce already inside, more than enough with the extra on the side (which hasn't always been the case in the past). I do acknowledge that there has been times in the past few years that the food didn't stand out, or wasn't great, but their loaded fries/nachos and fusion burrito have never disappointed me. I used to be able to eat 2 burritos in one sitting, now I can barely make it through one. read more

This place has changed a lot! I used to know this place when the owners were first starting. It has expanded quite a bit, sitting is outside, you order your food and they will open the window when the food is ready. We ordered 2 bowls and a plate, all of them were equally as big, big portions here. The menu might have changed from a long time ago. The chicken schwarma was a little on the dry side and they did not give the garlic side for the meats. Overall it was good, but not as great as I remembered it. They make the outside seating cute, but there was construction that day so all the dust kept coming to the seating areas. read more

It's an unassuming Mediterranean/Mexican fusion stand. You can get everything from swarma plates, quesadillas, to fried cauliflower. The portions are always generous, fairly priced and service is quick (in person and online). read more

A fan of Mediterranean food and this place has lot of reviews. Decided on the chicken kebab plate with rice, fried zucchini and salad. There was a lot of food, enough for 2-3 people. The kebab was good and not dry. Zucchini was fried well and not soggy. Salad was okay. I didn't like the rice and there was a lot of it. Was reminiscent of western style flavored rice. Wish it came with some pita bread. TBH it was too much food and most I didn't end up finishing. Not bad but not great. Maybe the food is just not to my taste. read more

You get a lot of food for the money, and it's good, too. I even had enough for three meals, too.

Hey gang. This is basically about nothing more than the food. Service was good and they have a fair amount of outdoor seating... but the food is something else. It's a fusion of Mediterranean and Mexican food. These both are my sweet spot when it comes to my personal spice palate. (No cilantro please, it's a DNA thing). They have bowls, plates, gyros, quesadillas, kabobs and they taste better than my go to Mexican or Mediterranean restaurants. ( so much so I may look into a franchise) . Try it just once, I guarantee you you won't be one and done. Buon Apettito! read more

Today, I had the chicken wrap with the green dressing!!! The chicken was super tender and full of flavor. The dressing was like the icing on the cake.

Been coming here for years. Place is always on point with the food and everyone working there is always nice and helpful. You can tell they do it all with love. Thank you read more

There's a reason why this place is so highly rated. It's really good!! And they give giant portions. I the king bowl is multiple meals for one person, and good! I'd recommend getting the tzatziki on the side, so the bowl doesn't get overly soggy. So, I have a new rating system......I will write what I feel honestly about an establishment. The only ratings I will give are 5 stars, which is enjoyable, or 3 stars which is "needs work." read more

Second time here and it was as delicious as the first ! Shan was our ordering attendant and she was as sweet and helpful as can be . My husband and I have decided that the kings sauce is our favorite sauce to go with the chicken and beef king bowl ! This is our new go to for Mediterranean food. :) read more

This place is SOOO GOOD. What a nice local hidden gem. Discovered it through Grubhub delivery showing it as hot and trending nearby - and now I know why! Think Halal Guys, but 1000000x better. I ordered the King Bowl with chicken and gyro meat, and half salad/half rice. When it was delivered, you can imagine my surprise when the container was so full, the lid barely closed. Great portion size, I'll be able to make at least 2-3 meals out of this. Also came with a yummy garlic sauce and a very spicy hot sauce on the side. Will definitely be ordering from here again! read more

Bought two of their family packs. You get so much great tasting food for the price. Definitely worth it! The chicken kabob, rice, salad, humus, pita, quesadillas, and side choices are all delicious! We got the fried zucchini, so good! The people were so nice and accommodating. I ordered 2 family packs via their online app but I needed them separated for two different families. They rebagged the packs for me, with a smile! read more

Ordered from King Mediterrano and wow--the portions are HUGE. The King Bowl was packed with meat, fresh toppings, and tons of flavor. The Falafel & Chicken Shawarma Burrito might honestly be one of the best things I've had in a while--crispy falafel and juicy shawarma in every bite. Massive and filling. The Hummus & Pita was simple but perfect--super creamy hummus with warm fluffy bread. Sauces were on point (tons of flavor, not overwhelming), and everything tasted super fresh. Definitely a spot I'll be ordering from again. read more

Still tasty overall, but the burrito construction has significantly dropped off - ie. noticeably smaller and less generous with the protein. I thought this might've been a one-off experience, but it's happened at least twice now. The plates and quesadillas are still gargantuan and quite tasty, but we definitely don't order nearly as often anymore. read more

People are lying about how this food is tasty. It isn't, believe me. I ordered the King bowl with 2 proteins and it was served with okd salad greens and the chicken was dry. The faflafel wasn't seasoned t all. Dry as all dry can be. The gyro with the 2 in it was ansty as well. The Feta cheese does not go well with lamb and the pita was old. The only hood thing about this place was the tzatziki sauce. My gosh, try better and learn to cook. The price I paid was not worth it and I will not be hoing back. The outside seating area was kept clean‍ read more

Excellent food and service. My favorite is the chicken shawarma. I've been a loyal customer fir three years now

Let me tell you, this place was great! At first when we paid we were like oh it's a bit pricey but then we got our order and were shocked the servings are well worth it! We had so many falafels for our loaded fries and even the falafel plate. They falafel were good taste soft inside, crunchy outside l. The loaded fries were nice and crispy too. They serve in to go plates and for a good reason we weren't able to finish our food and took it for later. The seating is outdoors there is no indoor seating but they have a nice size for seating. It's located in a shopping center so ample parking available. If you're looking for some Mediterranean food the Mediterranean King is a good choice! read more

I had the Mediterranean burrito with the gyro as my protein and it was hella bomb. Service was great too! I didn't catch her name but she helped me choose my protein today and she was so nice and lovely. Appreciate her for that!
