Flavorful and delicious food. There are lots of choices on the menu and the servings are a good size.

They messed my whole order up, i had to leave work a second time to get it correct, no apologies. Just let me make it again. The chicken was dry, my co workers order had only like back 5 strips of meat on hers. Last meal with them read more

Extremely delicious food. Love the Shawarma wrap and French Fries. French Fries come with a nice coating and are super delicious!

A good place to get a quick lunch. I usually order the Chicken Shawarma with hummus and it's always delicious. You have the option of getting it in a flour tortilla or pita bread. Both are great options. You can park on the parking lot, and there's usually parking but when school is in session, it's pretty hard to find parking up in the front but there is also retail parking in the garage in the back. Overall, their food is delicious and I stop here for a quick bite. read more

Food is usually great. However, at some point they stopped including rice on their platters. A side of rice is now $5.50. A serving of rice costs them $.05, maybe $.10. Absurd. Now we make our own rice if we order from this restaurant. When they started charging for rice, we tried other kebab restaurants in the area. There are plenty of them. Loo around. read more

Nestled in a strip mall and surrounded by chains this place does a good job at providing quality Mediterranean food in a hurry. This is kind of like a Chipotle for mediterranean-style food but you'll get larger portions and much fresher food. There's no reason to complain about anything here. It's a go to place for an affordable, average meal that brings healthy choices. Everything starts with your entree and by that I mean you have to choose a base, be a chicken breast, beef, lamb, kafta, gyro, falafel or a veggie platter. All of those meats are cooked on site daily and taste great. And everything can be ordered as a wrap or a platter. The sides rival the main dish. Their tabouli, pasta salad, fresh fruit salad and hummus are worth ordering and will rival any other fast-food style Mediterranean you can find in the area. And the good news is you'll probably have your order in 5 minutes or less. You'll find a lot of people order to go here, but there's a large enough dining area to accommodate crowds as well. read more

This was my second time ordering from Mediterra Grill. Last time I picked up and this time I got delivery from Door Dash. The quality both times has been amazing. You can tell everything is made fresh! Last time I got hummus and pita bread and salad. This time I got chicken tenders with fries and a hummus tabouli wrap. Their hummus is to die for! Also, the chicken tenders and fries were seasoned well. I usually like my fries a little crispier but they tasted great regardless. For it being a lunch hour, I was impressed that my food didn't take too long to get to me. I will definitely make this one of my go-to spots for lunch! My huge wrap was only around $7 as well as the chicken tenders with fries and a drink. Parking is convenient if you go to pick up. There are plenty of accessible spaces. read more

Typical Mediterranean food with generous portions. I had the gyro platter and it was piled high with grilled beef over a salad with hummus and tatziki sauces with pita chips. read more

A favorite in Durham. The food is always fresh and flavorful. There is plenty of indoor and outdoor (undercover) seating. Convenient location and very reasonable prices. Highly recommend! read more

Food is good, location is great! I will definitely go back again and again. Love Mediterranean food. Now, the parking in that plaza is horrible unless you go in parking deck. Cars are packed everywhere read more

Y'all, I hate to write this review because I truly appreciate how hard running a restaurant during the pandemic is, but stay away. This place gave me the worst case of food poisoning I have experienced. (And yes, I'm sure it was from their food; I'll spare you the details of how I know...) read more

Atmosphere: Very casual, it's usually pretty empty when we go or pass by. Mediterra is definitely a place to grab food to-go. Service: The owner was very nice and the food came out hot. However, we waited for a bit longer than we would've liked, especially since the place seemed fairly empty. Food: We ordered the Chicken Kabob Wrap and the Chicken Shawarma Wrap. Both had pretty good chicken, though a bit on the saltier side. The wraps are definitely unique because they put fries in them. The garlic sauce is flavorful and pita is also pretty good. Overall: Mediterra serves pretty standard Mediterranean food but does not stand out with the exception of the fries in their wraps. We've had better Mediterranean food at that price point but won't be against coming back again! read more

Some items on the menu taste good while others fall a bit flat. Hummus was okay as were the falafels. The wrap I had was disappointing, but my girlfriends tasted slightly better. You can eat anything here and be fine. It is kind of easy to forget. The service was good and the staff is helpful and nice. $10 dollars gets you a pretty filling meal and most of the items look fresh and healthy for the most part. read more

Excellent food. Wonderful people. Great service. Will definitely return. Falafel was prepared fresh before service. Salads were fresh and tasty and the bread was hot. Very nice! read more

Had a really excellent gyro wrap and tomato/cucumber/bell pepper salad as a side with a drink for $8.99. Service was friendly and prompt, just what you'd want for a good lunch run. I'm knocking off a star because there tended to be a lot of cross-contamination of serving spoons into different side dishes and if you have allergies, that might be an issue. Luckily, I don't, so I got to enjoy a great lunch special! read more

I gave this place two try's simply because I love Mediterranean food, and I work down the road at Duke and wanted it to work out. The food is bland, unauthentic, and simply pedestrian. I have had more memorable meals at fast food places on the road while traveling. I think they are surviving because of the proximity to Duke, and students that live on campus waking to eat here. I hope this location has no affiliation with the Mediterranean Grill on Franklin street, Chapel Hill, which is truly divine and worth the drive. This location is absolutely one of the worst meals I have had in Durham. Don't waste your money!! read more

Just had a Greek salad - worst I have ever had! Didn't even look/taste like a Greek salad.

Ordered spanakopita, tabouli salad, falafel with hummus, and falafel wrap. The hummus was bitter and insufferable. The tabouli salad was 90% parsley with hardly any tabouli. Three small pieces of spanakopita was about 5 bucks. Very disappointing. Not recommended. read more

I stopped in here for lunch, I was hungry for Mediterranean food, but didn't want to drive to Chapel Hill to my favorite place (the Mediterranean Deli), so I stopped here instead. I ordered the chicken shawarma which I have had many times before at authentic Mediterranean places, and every other time I've had it the chicken was shaved, here it was in chunks. It was also very dry. But here's the weird thing, there were fries in the wrap! Never have I seen that before. It wasn't terrible, but definitely not what I was wanting. read more

If I could give zero stars I would. The food is ok but the customer service is garbage. The staff is rude, impatient, and careless. They screwed up my order and weren't willing to make it right. I didn't order baklava when I came in so offering me a complimentary slice won't correct the problem. Will not be returning! read more

The food here is always so good. My favorite is their chicken shawarma wrap! I used to live right across from the restaurant and would grab food from there coming back home from work. Always hot and delicious. Great service! read more

We had the falafel platter and a gyro platter. The gyro was pretty fantastic. It was seasoned perfectly. There was nothing spectacular about the hummus or tzatziki. The toubuli was very lemony. It's my favorite and I couldn't eat it. The baklava was dry. The falafels were meh Unfortunately, it's not a place I will patron in the future. I was hoping to have a new Mediterranean spot but no. read more

Real good food, takeout was packaged well and portions were generous; definitely worth the trip--we'll be back.

TL;DR. Do not eat here! Our lamb tased very rotten. It was the type of taste where I reflexively dropped by jaw and spit the food out. We showed it to the manager to let the restaurant know and she blew us off. We specifically said we did not want a refund or a different meal so they would not think we had an ulterior motive and would take our concern seriously. This is a public safety hazard. There is a perinatal clinic right nearby. A woman could lose her baby. I was very disappointed in the response by the staff. I only hope my immune system is strong enough to fight off whatever i was just exposed to. read more

The food is fine and the wait time is not an issue for me but the low rating is for the customer service. As many of the reviews have already commented, the people here are rude. I have ordered on the phone from them multiple times and each time, they are incredibly rude. When asking questions about the menu - they always sound so frustrated. When placing an order, they are curt. When I go to pick up my order, they don't so much as give you a smile. The cashier and the servers barely look at you, just take your credit card and shove the food in front of you. When I ask for extra sauce or pita bread (which typically is free in other restaurants), they are shocked and act like I am asking for their first born son. I am a paying customer and I should not feel uncomfortable ordering food and ask questions about the menu. Please be more patient and be friendly. Smiles are free to give. Don't act like I am doing YOU a favor by being a customer. read more

I am definitely a fan of Mediterra Grill. I don't know what more can be added about it. I will say that the staff are very friendly and nice to talk to. The place is sparkling clean. I ordered the potato wrap and hummus. Both were excellent. The wrap was supposed to be spicy and it was! Normally I go to restaurants, ask them to ramp up a spicy dish and I still can't feel the heat. Note that the potato wrap was not super spicy. It was a nice spicy. I could tell that it was there, and the heat was enjoyable. The hummus was great - very flavorful. I would go back and order both things again. The only thing I am upset about is that I was too lazy to go sooner. I will definitely be back a lot! read more

So underwhelmed by this place. The chicken shawarma was extremely chewy and the portion was tiny. The fries were way oversalted and the baklava tasted store bought. The restaurant was clean, but looks bare and run down. Which is ironic considering it's in a pretty new and shiny shopping center. Everyone in the restaurant spoke Spanish, which is perfectly ok except that it's supposed to be a Mediterranean place??? Long story short, paid $15 for a pretty subpar tasting meal, in a place that looks more like the hole in the walls you'd find in the Bronx. Save your cash read more

I live pretty far from the restaurant. I went all the way there to pick up an order I made online through GrubHub because someone in my party had a craving for Mediterranean food. When I got there and the order was given to me, I noticed that the sodas I had ordered were not there. When I asked I was just given a cup and the person pointed at the fridge (without even giving as much as a look of acknowledgement). 30 minutes later when I got home, I realized I was missing one of the items in the order. There's no way I was going all the way back there to pick up the missing order. Very disappointed and frustrated for sure read more

Mediterra Grill is my latest obsession. I have been coming here quite frequently to order take out. The portions are quite generous with decent prices. My one complaint is that the amount of meat given for orders can be a little skimpy. My favorite items are the lamb kabob dish and beef gyro platter. read more

Always eat there when at Duke Hospital the food is fresh and great shish kebabs. Salads and egg plants are the best.Always a large serving I highly recommended it when you are at Duke. read more

Freaking awesome food. Fresh and tasty I love it Try it and you'll love it Great atmosphere clean restaurant friendly staff

Food is soooo good! The chicken wrap is delicious and a good value. The meat is flavorful and juicy and the sauce perfectly complements the chicken. The pita bread is warm and soft, unlike other places that serve you hard bread. The menu says it comes with "potato strips" - that just means fries. They're well seasoned and fresh! Delicious lunch! The big problem with this place is the customer service. The cashiers have a really bad attitude, they're unhelpful, they rush you and they decide when they do and don't want to bring your food to your table. But the food is honestly so good and convenient that I still go. I have found a few other Mediterranean places that I've bookmarked so hopefully when I try those they'll have great service to match the food. read more

I've never eaten inside so I can only speak for the food. Portion sizes vary widely during takeout which can get annoying. Prices are on the higher end for quantity. Personally, I think their side dishes steal the show. The hummus and baba gannoush taste 1000x better than store bought ones. The pita bread that comes with them is always warm and pillowy soft. I love the roasted cauliflower salad as well. The eggplant salad was extremely salty so I'm avoiding that one. The lamb salad platter was meh - the meat was too chewy and not very flavorful, though dunked in cucumber sauce made it palatable. The greek salad is always super fresh. Overall, definitely recommend to vegetarians and non-vegetarians alike. read more

It seems they do a thriving takeout business, with the medical complex and apartments so close by. We ate in and the interior was no-fuss and pleasing enough. The food, however, was a pleasant surprise and exceeded expectations. The chicken shawarma wrap and side Greek salad were excellent and my son liked his gyro wrap so much that he ordered a lamb shawarma wrap as well. Delicious and satisfying. Staff was friendly as well. read more

Really like this spot as a quick lunch option! I've only ever gotten the beef tenderloin kabob wrap, which is awesome. It is flavorful, the veggies are fresh, and it doesn't get soggy during the 15 minutes it takes me to bring it back to school to eat. I'm always left feeling super satisfied. read more

As we waited for our food, we watched the cook drop a bottle of oil on the floor, pick it up with his gloved hands, put it on the counter (with our food) and continue to cook. Without changing his gloves. When asked if we needed anything, the cashier pulled down her mask to speak. The bathrooms were absolutely disgusting. It makes me sad to have to write this because it appears that it is a family-run business, but I am concerned about the health code violations. read more

The falafel wrap was good, but the kafta wrap really could use more seasoning or more sauce (either tahini or the cucumber sauce). The meat was also on the chewy side, so not the best quality for me. Also, maybe people were tired after a long day - I went at night, and the people taking my order looked almost annoyed/angry. read more
