My first visit to Mediterranean Grill did not disappoint!…read more I've always heard the food was fire here but I don't get to Northpark Mall often, so visiting always seemed out of my reach. But a group of us decided to go after a retreat Saturday and I can say I've been missing out. Uncle Eli, as he likes to be called, treated us like queens! His customer service skills serves the restaurant well. All of us ordered either pantrout sandwiches or the 2 piece pantrout dinner. All got fries except one, and she got a salad after Uncle Eli guaranteed he washes his lettuce and that he has been eating salads despite the new virus. I'm not a fan of pantrout but I asked for mine to be fried hard. I only ordered it because those who have eaten there before swore it was good. And it was! It was seasoned like someone heard their ancestors say "that's enough". It didn't have that fishy smell but was cooked hard like I want it. I could have gone without getting it fried hard but I didn't know since I don't usually get pantrout. The fries were good and my friend's salad was big and she said it was tasty. Since it was the first time there for the majority of us, it's safe to say they gained some new repeat customers!

Love it!!...they have really good fried patriot and the customer service is always good!!!read more

I ate my Mediterranean feast in a nearby park. The gyro was good and I did notice they shaved the meat directly instead of a spit instead of using pre-sliced pieces. This really does make a difference. The cottage fries were plentiful and was a large potato sliced in thick pieces and fried. I did find this under seasoned and greasy, but it was decent enough. Overall, I enjoyed my meal and would recommend it. I will givebit four stars overall.

You could taste the freshness in the bread and the marination of the meat was fantastic. Overall the decor has a typical Greek aesthetic to it, but not very modern. The only two negatives that I have are that the fries were a bit soggy as it appears the oil temperature was not sufficient, but the waitress took the cost off the bill without me even asking when she noticed I didn't eat the fries. I did order a baklava to go and rather than utilizing honey it appears they use a brown sugar syrup instead which does make the texture a little bit mushy. In all I would eat here again.

The falafel wrap was fresh with a delicious warm and chewy pita and what seemed to be smashed veggie patties of some sort but not what I would have recognized as fried falafel.

The cottage fries were warm with some crispy edges but did seem a bit oily and over fried.
