I recently won a contest for a free meal at this establishment, and invited a friend, another foodie, to go with me. Thanks go to Brad with Food Crazy Tucson Food Tours who organized this fun evening. The atmosphere was fun, friendly and inviting. I plan to go back when it is cooler to enjoy the patio space. The service was fast and friendly They we so attentive to our large pary of 20 winners! Now for the food. Perfectly prepared, flavorful, and truly delightful to my palate. My friend and I tried everything, and found nothing to be a disappointment. The owner and chef was friendly, informative, and attentive. He not only described each dish, but gave the history of each as well. This is a "must go" for authentically delicious Mediterranean food! read more

I LOVE the baba ganoush here as well as the Fattoush salad. Those are my favorite items by far from what I have tried. I like that they use mint in their sandwiches and as a garnish. Their pita is really thin and not my favorite and the falafel, although fried well, is fairly bland for me/ not seasoned the way I prefer it. I liked the filling of the spinach pastries, these are pretty simple in terms of flavor but I enjoyed dipping them in the hummus and Baba ganoush. I ate here once for lunch as well as one time for a complimentary dinner meal they generously offered in a giveaway collaboration with Tucson Food Tours. The owner seemed kind. During the complimentary meal I shared the table with other people who got selected to participate and several of them have never had middle eastern food before. The owner was welcoming and informative to them and in general seemed lovely. The food tasted fresh and made with care. The first time I came on my own I was a little confused on whether it was table service or counter service, still not sure if that shifts depending on the day and time. They have a patio with outdoor tables. My general rating system: 1 star: I would stay away 2 stars: Has some good things about it but I generally don't recommend. 3 stars: Pretty good. I wouldn't go out of my way to go back but a decent place 4 stars: Great place. I would go back. 5 stars: I highly recommend stopping whatever you are doing and making plans to try it out! An Evie favorite! read more

This will be my second time coming here, and I ordered the beef shawarma wrap. It was flavorful and filling, and my friend enjoyed her chicken shawarma wrap as well. Jabo, our waiter, was kind and friendly to us! We were having great conversations with him, and he attended to us in a professional manner. If you are looking for Lebanese cuisine, I recommend this place as the prices are affordable as well. read more

Med Cuisine - W10 Beef Shawarma شاورما لحم - Mediterranean Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

Got there at 11. Everything was done exactly right. Delicious. My wife had the vegetarian plate. Too much to eat without assistance. Chicken and lamb kabobs with french fries. Amazing! We will be back. read more

Not sure I'll be back. Especially not for sit down dining. I don't know what's changed but despite having enjoyed it a few years ago, we found it lacking, perhaps even sad? The service felt as though the person did not want to be there. We tried being very friendly, but there was an air of real unhappiness. Couldn't suss out why. There were 3 tables occupied inside & the place appeared clean but the food (lamb kebabs) felt frozen & reheated which made them tough. Presentation was fine. Turkish coffee was good. Bill was about $48 for 2 decent sized plates. Maybe I should've ordered something different (Shwarma or gyro) as the rice & fries were good and plentiful. An off day? Idk. read more

We ate here for a mid-afternoon meal, and there were just a few other people dining at that time. We sat ourselves, choosing a booth by a window. They also had plenty of outdoor seating. Our server came by with menus and took our drink orders. We chose the zaatar and cheese rolls as an appetizer. I had the gyro salad and my husband had the gyro platter. The cheese rolls came out with the entrees, and we didn't fall in love with them. The gyro meat on both the platter and the salad was tasty. The salad itself seemed a bit bland, although it was large. The fries on the platter were excellent. The bread just ok. read more

Everything we ever get here is amazing. The presentation is great. Very satisfied every time we're here in town. If I had to give them one bit of criticism, their pita is very flat, dry, and bland. Not like the pita I had when I was in Lebanon. read more

Ghetto, massive disappointment compared to El Saguaro that was here for years. Business owners and staff addicted to YouTube. Food takes forever and is mediocre at best. Restaurant is old and needs a massive update it's like a Mexican restaurant trying to be from the Mediterranean. read more

Absolutely top notch service. The food was delicious and a very fair price. Highly recommend Med Cuisine for catering.

Excellent food, pricing and service. They had a special buy one get one free. How awesome is that!

One of our "go-tos" for yummy freshly prepared Mediterranean. The best baba ganoush we've ever had. The hummus is a creamy dream. Not sure where they get their veggies, but they are off the charts fresh, crisp, sooo flavorful. Great service always too! Do yourself a favor. So good. read more

Extremely disappointing interaction today. If I could give 0 starts I would. Definitely one to remember. I placed an online pickup order tonight, an entire and an appetizer. Nothing crazy. We showed up early so I decided to wait in the parking lot, where, two of the employees were very "busy" doing donuts in the shared parking lot with the rest of the plaza. Almost hitting our car, that was cleary tuned on and occupied. I had my headlights on and the car running. The tire screeching caught the attention of the parking lot security. I watched another employee go up and talk to the security. The two individuals in the car proceeded to park the car they were doing donuts in, and walk into the restaurant. Our order was supposed to be completed. A absolute lack of customer service, first of all. Let us know we would have to wait for our order, didn't give us a time frame. That's also when I noticed the two individuals that were outside in the car that was doing donuts in the kitchen. Everyone was packing orders, attending to the rest of the guests, so that made it very clear that they work there. Why else would you be back in the kitchen? Authorized to do so? Anyway, when we asked about canceling the order the first time, they let us know it would be a 5-7 minute wait. Which is fine, they were busy, it's understood. What was not understood is why their employees were outside putting everyone in danger by doing donuts in a busy parking lot. 20 minutes went by, still no food, we asked one of the employees that was outside in the reckless car to please cancel our order, and that we wanted a refund, since we didn't get any food. He proceeded to tell me he couldn't do that, and that he didn't work there. We spoke to the employee that went up to the parking lot security about canceling our order, he also proceeded to say they didn't work there, and couldn't refund me. An absolute joke, no apology, nothing. Don't waste your time here, you'll get scammed! Included a photo for fun since they wanted to act like they didn't know what I was talking about. This was right after security had left, and what a assume to be the employee telling the other employees to stop and come inside read more

I asked for a recommendation between the gyro plate and the chicken Shawarma. The waiter said the Shawarma. Not too many people here on a Thursday night. TV was on music videos. Very interesting. I couldn't understand a thing but it was entertaining. My meal arrived and just the smell alone was fantastic. I was about to dig in when I remembered to take a picture. As you can see, the serving was a nice size. The pita was cold. That surprised me. I guess that's the way to eat it here. I took my first bite and OMG. The flavor was like the smell, fantastic. All the different seasonings just complimented the whole meal. The rice was very good and added to the whole dish. I was so full. So this is my first time eating Lebanese food and I really liked it. Who knew. I already recommended this place to a few people at the hotel and at work. This is a must do when in this area. read more

We came for dinner on a Saturday night and was seated quickly. I think there was 1 other table besides us. We ordered the mega mix plate with a side of french fries. Everything was so delicious! Their french fries have a light coating to them and were fried to perfection. The variety of meats we got was super excellent as well. It was enough food to feed the 3 of us. Overall, great service and delicious food. They have a buy 2 get 1 shawarma free on their menu and I can't wait to come back and try it out! read more

Good food! I've only done takeout but loved everything except the baba ganoush, which didn't have the flavors I expected.

Was a great place to stop and sit down after driving from Phoenix. One girl there but they weren't busy and she was attentive. Ordered the Baba Ghanoush (Roasted eggplant with tahina lemon and garlic) but asked for more vegetables and no pita bread. Liked their fresh tomatoes and their cucumber was pretty good but the pickles were too chewy/salty whereas I'd rather have them crunchy. The dips they have are all delicious. Decent serving size with enough accompanying bread/veg. The price is a bit higher than normal, still reasonable though! Only thing off-putting was their bathroom wasn't nearly as clean as I'd like and their drive thru window customers were not saying very nice things which made dining in a tad unsettling in the beginning. Having their items clearly labeled vegan is also a huge plus. Give them a try! 091823 read more

My husband absolutely loved this place! He got their mixed plate and it was a ton of food. I was very impressed with their kids meal. It had a lot of variety and my 3 year old loved it. My chicken shawarma wrap was so tasty and was a little different from other wraps I've had in the past. I really liked the pickles on it! Friendly staff. The sign was off, but we saw people in there. We asked if they were still open and he said yes. Later we saw he had turned the sign back on so my guess was that was an accident that it was off. Others came in after us too. read more

I have tried Med Cuisine several times since their early days at Park Place Mall and followed them to their standalone restaurant. I wanted to support them, but something is always off when I go there. During my last visit, it seemed like no one was working in the restaurant. I stood at the entrance, waiting for someone to take my takeout order. Finally, one employee emerged from the back and told me I would be assisted in a bit. It took me 15 minutes to place my order, and the restaurant was not busy. I ordered the gyro; the meat portions were alright, but the gyro did not stand out. Overall, I won't return to Med Cuisine for a while. Better food and service exist elsewhere. read more

Med Cuisine - M1. Lamb Gyro Platter - Mediterranean Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

Met a friend here for dinner for the first time. We both noticed the strong sewer smell in the restaurant upon entering. I ordered the lamb gyro wrap. My friend got the lamb kebab platter. They bring a basket of pita chips and tzatziki complementary as a starter. It didn't take long for our food to arrive. My gyro wrap was huge and I enjoyed the gyro meat. I could only eat about half of it. The wrap is different than I'm used to, not traditional pita bread, and it was a little dry. My friend said the lamb kebab was dry. The service was good, however it took them several tries to get our checks right, as we wanted separate checks. There's definitely better Mediterranean food around town, but this wasn't bad. Can't say I'd go back. read more

Last night we enjoyed a delightful dinner at this wonderful Tucson treasure! We stopped at Safeway to purchase a few items and had planned to go to a Mexican restaurant for dinner. As we walked to our vehicle we noticed the welcoming lights at Med Cuisine in the same parking lot and decided to try it out; we are happy we did!! We were greeted immediately and seated by our wonderful waiter, Sam. Sam brought us an appetizer plate of cucumbers, pita bread and chips with hummus and tzatziki sauce. We ordered the lamb platter and chicken shawarma platter. Both were delicious and plentiful (we have enough for another delicious dinner tonight.). The flavors in the rice and meats were perfectly balanced. The side sauces of garlic with the chicken and tzatziki with the lamb were also delicious. The warm pita bread made the meal perfect! The restaurant has both indoor and outdoor seating. The booths inside are comfortable. This is an exceptional gem and we will be back soon!! read more

Dining room is not that big, but there are extra tables in the patio. We came on a Thursday, place is not that busy. Service is really good. The owner makes sure that all of her customers are well taken cared of. Food is great, for those who like Mediterranean food like me. Portion is good for the price they charge. I will definitely go back and recommend this place. read more

I'm still on the hunt for really great Arabic food here in Tucson. Coming from a city with a large Arab population, it's been somewhat disappointing with the options here. I was hopeful to try Med Cuisine based on the reviews. The restaurant is decorated nicely and wasn't very busy when we arrived. We ordered the Mezze Mix and the lamb kafta kebab wrap. The timing of the food was pretty slow and it seemed to take a while for our appetizer to arrive. The Mezze included hummus, baba ghanoush, kibbe, grape leaves, samosa, and cheese roll. The dips were pretty good as expected. I wasn't a fan of the grape leaves as I prefer them warm over cold. The kibbe was okay, not the best I've had. It needed some more spices and salt. The samosa almost wanted to be sambousek but was made with seemed like a wonton wrapper. It tasted fine. The cheese roll also tasted fine but my dining companion wasn't a fan. Our kefta kebabs were pretty good. The meat was seasoned well, the pita wrap was a little crispy, and I enjoyed the tahini dipping sauce that came with it. We passed on trying any dessert. The meal felt a little overpriced for what we received. I would be interested in coming back to try the gyro wrap but would definitely pass on the mezze platter again. read more

The food was great and had enough leftovers for another dinner the following night. Each meal was about $15. Quick service and the owner and her son were very pleasant and attentive. The restaurant has a full bar and an outdoor sitting area but this being Tucson, no one was outside even on Saturday night. If this restaurant was in the Midwest like NY or Chicago, it would have been very busy. For someone who has been to many Michelin-starred restaurants, I think this is a good restaurant that probably not many people in this town know about. Overall this was a good experience and we will definitely return. If you enjoy Mediterranean (Lebanese or Greek) cuisine, give this restaurant a try. You will not regret it! read more

I ordered the vegan plate, which consisted of two falafels, two dolmas (stuffed grapeleaves), large servings of hummus and baba ghanoush; with lettuce, sliced cucumbers,and tomatoes. The baba ghanoush was the best I've ever had. Unlike with other Mediterranean restaurants, it had very small chunks of eggplant enmeshed in it. Sooo scrumptious! Same for the hummus! The falafels had a crispy exterior with a moist, not dry, interior. read more

If I could give zero stars, I would, such a bummer. Service was forgetful and slow, which was surprising since the place was completely empty (especially during Ramadan). The food? Not what it used to be--dry, smaller portions, and the menu doesn't match the photos. Communication was minimal, and the vibe felt off. When I last went we were a group of five and got told after ordering that we ordered "too much"? Never heard of a restaurant policing how much you can eat. This visit was our last. read more

I made my first trip to Med Cuisine to pick up a quick lunch recently, and I was quite pleased. I use chicken shawarma as a basis of comparison between Middle Eastern and/or Mediterranean restaurants, since it's something I always like, and I always want to know where I can find a good shawarma! Med Cuisine's chicken shawarma wrap is good, packed with well-flavored chicken, pickles, french fries, lettuce, all lightly drizzled with a subtle garlic sauce. It's definitely filling -- the whole wrap kept me satiated well past when I would normally get hungry again in the late afternoon. I don't know if they have it on special all the time, but the special on the shawarma wrap was a steal! It was two wraps for $10, which meant I had two days' lunch for that price. Can't beat that! I really liked the drive-through window for picking up take-out, as well. It made the trip very quick and easy. read more
