I tried it with three friends this past week and the food was great. The hostess down to the waitress were very friendly. Our food came out in a timely manner. Our drinks stayed full. We will be back! read more

Great service and friendly staff. Food was delicious as well and came out really quickly.

Even though it is outside Charleston but the river deck is awesome! Very friendly staff. The meat pie is good but under seasoned, salmon is good. Chicken Shawarma is not authentic at all, wrapped in Mexican tortilla and not Pita, the chicken doesn't taste like Shawarma. read more

The food here is good, and comes out timely. plenty of Mediterranean options and the wings are great. The service is spotty, sometime we wait 15 minutes to get our drink order taken and sometimes it's right away. read more

Excellent food and service. Fire brick oven yielded awesome pizza and genuine Lebanese delicacies. Mediterranean Veggie Plate appetizer was authentic Lebanese, generous portions. Outdoor dinning along on the banks of the Kanawa River read more

Food: Good overall. Excellent for the area. For starters, I recommend the Hummus, Falafel, and Baba Ganouj. Grape Leaves were a bit dry. Greek Salad was excellent. I'm a sucker for those. For something really unique, try the Za'atar. I couldn't believe how herby this pie is. Service: Ordered to go and gave plenty of time. When I went in however, they were a bit sluggish to get to me. Otherwise, friendly. Price: Too pricey for regularity maybe, but certainly not too expensive to only be reserved for special occasions. If you're looking for sheer value, the Salads, Pizzas & Pies are well-priced for what you get, I feel. Not so much for the Burgers & Starters maybe. Atmosphere: Fairly casual. Looks very nice and clean inside though I have yet to dine in. I was aware of this old building being there for many years. I can't remember what it used to be, but I highly doubt the interior has ever looked this good. Great view to the rustic brick oven. Again, good overall...but excellent for this area. read more

Love this place. Food is good, service is friendly. My wife and I absolutely love the Mediterranean shrimp pizza. This is normally an artisan pizza and only comes in a 10 inch but if you ask they will do a large regular pizza made up like this. Great people and great food read more

I've eaten lunch here several times recently. The food is amazing but a bit on the pricy side. The beef schawarma is my favorite so far. The service is fast and friendly and the atmosphere is nice as well. Overall it's a great place to eat lunch if you don't mind a little extra. read more

Fried feta was over cooked. The texture was more like tofu-very firm. Not really much flavor. The chips were over cooked as well, and the server didn't even have a comment when I mentioned it. Beer selection is average. Building is very dated and even the patio needs some attention. read more

Eating at this restaurant was delightful. Hummus and pita slices appetizer was good, but the pita chips (deep fried I think) are even better with the hummus. Greek salads were excellent and very fresh. Sicilian roll with fries was very good--the marinara sauce makes it. Cyprus panini was also very good. Wait staff and manager were friendly and really hustling. We ate indoors, but the deck overlooking the river is wonderful--just come early to get a spot. read more

While in town for a very socially distant fall break getaway with the family, we chose Mediterranean Breeze for a carry-out dinner one night. We ordered a beef kabob from the kids' menu, which was eaten by the kiddo in family without any fanfare. My husband ordered naked hot wings. He remarked that the sauce was flavorful without bringing on too much sweat. I was super excited to see so many vegetarian options on the menu! This mean that I could order based on my level of hunger instead of just ordering the one thing on the menu that was vegetarian. Yay! I decided to try their falafel wrap because I was interested in the way the radish, tomatoes, pickles, and parsley would play with the falafel and tahini sauce. It sounded like a really delicious combo of flavors. Well, when my husband came back with the food, I discovered I got the falafel appetizer instead. Now to be clear, my dinner was still tasty. It just wasn't what I ordered. The falafel was good, but in traditional falafel fashion, it's quite dry. You've got to have ample dippin' sauce if you're going to make a dinner out of falafel, right? One little takeout container of their tahini sauce came with the order, but it wasn't nearly enough. I'd recommend two or even three containers. Overall, the food was good and we filled our bellies. If we visited again, I'd make sure to double check the food containers before we drive away. read more

Authentic Mediterranean food! Tony and his wife and their partner cooks up your favorite Med dishes and sides. The Baba Ganoush (sort of like humus, but made with eggplant) is to die for. Authentic brick oven pizzas that are AMAZING! Greek salads are fabulous. Highly recommended for dine in or take out! YUM! read more

Waited 15 minutes for someone to take our name/acknowledge the lobby full of people for the list then at least another 45 to be seated. Sat us, gave menus, took drink orders then came back with drinks after we looked at the menu for 10 minutes. She leaves then comes back to take our order and all beef/shawarma/steak was sold out. We decided to go elsewhere since most of their foods weren't available at this point. We still had to pay for drinks we didn't even drink. I would not recommend going there anytime soon. read more

Mediterranean Breeze in St Albans West Virginia is highly recommend! The food is always freshly made and enjoyable.

My wife and I recently visited this place for dinner for our first time. We have been hearing great things about it. When we arrived about 5pm they had a substantial wait. That's a good thing in this case. However we lucked out and grabbed a couple high top chairs along the brick wall in the bar area. Turned out to be pretty neat as our backs were to the crowd and the way the chairs were situated we were about a 45 degree angle from one another. Quite intimate. The staff was quick and friendly. Another plus because the place was packed. We started with drinks and appetizers. Both came quick and it was delicious. I got some type of parsley salad and my wife got the stuffed grape leaves. We shared with each other. I'm telling you it was fresh and awesome. For our dinner I ordered the 10 inch spinach wood fired pizza with a side of breadsticks and my wife ordered the skillet baked spaghetti. Wowza! That had to be the prettiest and most flavorful veggie pizza I've ever had. And the amount of cheese on the baked spaghetti was another site to see. My wife loved the spaghetti. The breadsticks were good the the winner was the homemade marinara. Toward the end of our dinner the owner came around to see how everything was. Bonus Points! Excellent service and excellent food. I will be back to try more from the menu. And I won't mind the wait. read more

Great Food right on the River!! Can't wait til they get a dock for boats to park!! It is possible for river access pick up which is awesome!! read more

Eating at Mediterranean Breeze is always very pleasant. The food and atmosphere are wonderful. Authentic Lebanese cuisine and other American favorites on the menu. Sitting outside during the nice weather overlooking the water is a rare treasure in Charleston. I highly recommend this restaurant! read more

This is my favorite restaurant in the area. The food is great. They get the food to you quickly, but you can tell it is still fresh. The staff is always so nice!! I have never once had a bad experience here. I recommend the Mediterranean nachos. read more

Outstanding food and service! We Stopped on the Harley for lunch. Not disappointed.

We ordered 4 meals for take out, and the employee said it would be ready in 25 minutes. We arrived in 25 minutes and called when we arrived and paid over the phone. They said it would be right out. We waited another half an hour and called again. The employee said the food is ready and she would bring it right out and she was looking at the order. We did not get the food for another hour after than conversation, approximately 2 hours after ordering it. We had to hail down two separate servers and go inside before we finally got it. We also observed mutliple servers not wearing masks and large groups of patrons not wearing masks with the restaurant brimming to capacity. When the food finally came, it was terrible and felt like it had been sitting out for hours. The "chicken shawarma" I ordered only had chicken in a tortilla - no sauce, no vegetables, nothing but chicken and bread. With it were 13 soggy french fries (+2$ extra charge. Picture attached). 0 of five stars, will not be patronizing here ever again and would not recommend to anyone. read more

Mediterranean Breeze - 13 soggy fries and a wrap with just chicken, nothing else - Mediterranean Near Me - Saint Albans, West Virginia

Love this place and will definitely return! I'm picky about my Mediterranean food and Mediterranean Breeze did not disappoint.

Very fresh. Slow staff but food was delicious. Bathrooms are not as tidy - need regular checking for toilet paper etc.

I finally had the opportunity to check out this place. I ordered the cast iron spaghetti and the pepperoni rolls to go. I always have concerns when order to go because the quality isn't the same. But no worries, the food was great. I also ordered the Greek salad and it didn't disappoint either. If you are in the area, I recommend you stop and enjoy a meal. read more

Waited until 3rd time my wife and I ate there. All 3 times my wife nor I liked the taste of the food we ordered. On our last time there we tried what they considered one of their specialty dishes. Needless to taste was less than satisfactory. read more

The food here is so good- you won't be disappointed with the surf and turf kabob or their oven fired pizzas. You may a to wait a little bit if it's crowded but it's worth it. read more

Service ? Horrible ! For a Thursday night .. absolutely no attention paid to anybody @ the bar just wanting a drink & an appetizer You should staff appropriately read more

We had the lamb chops and the cauliflower pizza and everything was amazing. It was the best restaurant experience we've had in a long, long time. read more

My family and I LOVE Mediterranean Breeze restaurant! Their Brick oven pizzas are absolutely delicious! Nothing we have ordered has been a disappointment. We like the atmosphere there too, especially the deck dining area looking out over the River. The owner is very personable and comes around to every table ensuring that your meal is prepared just the way you like it. Great family atmosphere too! read more

Wow! What a fantastic find. Wife and daughter and I just enjoyed a spectacular Valentine's dinner with creamy hummus, tender and tasty beef shwarma and a smoked gouda and grilled chicken pizza, along with a tall draft local craft beer and margarita. Super friendly staff and owners and authentic Lebanese cuisine, along with special American favorites. We couldn't have been more pleased with the food or the warmth of the proprietors. Beautiful yet cozy decor inside and a delightful atmosphere. Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful all around. read more

Awesome food and a fun atmosphere! I love the outdoor patio overlooking the river as well.

The wait to be seated was long, but that was expected due to the limited seating. The wait to be served was very long, however. We waited for a waiter & drinks for nearly an hour. The waitress said there was a mixup, and was helpful, so why hold it against her? Our appetizer was the falafel & pita bread. I really liked them - crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside, and they came with a good sauce. They have a good selection of appetizers, but I wish the sandwiches and entrees had a wider variety. Our food was pretty good. The servings could've been a little bigger for the price, but they were enough to fill me up. For the most part, I enjoyed the meal. The biggest complaint I had with my panini is that it came with pickles on it, but that wasn't listed on the menu... ick! Not a problem if you like them, though. The staff was very friendly, it has a nice ambience, outdoor seating, and pretty good food. I would go back. read more

How do you call fried eggplant on top of spaghetti eggplant lasagna ? Might feel different if the taste was good but it wasn't.

I have eaten here a few times and the atmosphere is not that good. The food has been great, but the owner always is always yelling at his staff. This has happened every time I have been there. it is hard to enjoy your dinner when you have to listen to him constantly yelling at his staff. read more

The fan above us was very bad. It was already shaking badly. Then a cord snapped. A peice fell on my father. Sparks flew out and a little fire happened. The fire did not spread. It was very scary. Everyone is fine. It was very scary. read more

Fresh, different and most of all delicious. The waitress was great, gave a lot of details on the different dishes. We went with the wood fire pizza we tried the steak and mushroom as well as the shrimp and artichoke both were wonderful. The atmosphere as well as the staff could not have been more welcoming. read more

Stood for 15 minutes while several employees walked around us without even acknowledging we were there to even put us on a waiting list...once we did get seated (we are a family) we had a party of 8 with small kids they split us up and would not allow us to sit together, but if we would have been strangers we could all sit next to each other at the bar. The waitress only brought half of our food and we thought she went to get the rest of food then 10 minutes later we had to ask where it was... read more

MEDITERRANEAN BREEZE! It's awesome. And I admit it. My mom and I are food snobs (especially my mom! ). Our lunch was perfection. Sat outside on the river, enjoying the beautiful day and the breeze. Everything sounded so good we decided to share. First of all, they will cook your meat to order! Major plus. We started with the Fried Feta that came with fried pita chips and a Mediterranean blend of tomatoes, cucumber and olives on top. We ordered filet kabobs, medium rare, with rice and upgraded to a small Greek salad. The steak which was deliciously seasoned was cooked to perfection and I literally cut it with a fork. It also came with deliciously seasoned mixed vegetables. We ordered a maple bacon cheddar burger, medium, and upgraded to onion rings. I took a picture of the burger cut in half so you could see how thick and how it was cooked to juicy medium perfection. Everything was amazing and service was fast. Megan, our waitress, was a jewel. I've been seeing this blow up on FB and so glad we finally tried it! I'm sorry we waited so long and can't wait to come back with the hubby. PS. On a subsequent trip , we ordered the Caesar salad and it was bangin! The grilled the romaine which was unexpected and just took it to another level entirely. NOTE, Re CDC guidelines. They are following on point. Everyone wearing masks, gloves, and using paper menus that are disposed of after use. They opened in January right before the pandemic started. Now they have another chance. Let's help them have the success they deserve! read more

I will say the wings were pretty good, but the baked pasta dishes taste about like mushy cardboard boxes. Overall, not recommended.

Very nice patio seating with a great view of the river. Employees were very friendly and checked in frequently. Food was great.

The wood fired pizza was enough to get me there but the staff, management, and especially the food will get me to come back. People were waiting to get in and were not sorry they did. The eggplant lasagna was delicious as well as the pizza. They grilled the romaine for the Caesar salad which made it and the creamy dressing was incredible. All food was made fresh and made from scratch. My hat is off to Tony and his crew. Well done. read more
