Made a return visit today and it was even better than the first time! I had the Mixed Grill Lamb and Chicken. The lamb changed my life and the rest of the meal had my tail wagging. The friendly staff asked me how it was and I literally told them I was in love with their food. And I am ready to commit. Best Greek salad, lamb, and tzatziki I've ever had. read more

Mediterranean Cafe - Mixed Grill Platter...lamb and chicken with Greek salad and tzatziki sauce. - Mediterranean Near Me - Colorado Springs, Colorado

HUMBLE SPOT, SERIOUS KEBABS: This place looks very modest from the outside and inside, but the food was outstanding. I ordered the mixed grill with lamb and chicken kebabs, the premier offering on the menu, and it was totally worth it. All the kebabs were very tasty and among the best I've had. The lamb in particular was prepared beautifully, tender and full of flavor. I didn't expect food this good from owners who aren't Greek, but they've clearly mastered their craft and recipes over the years. Definitely come here and get the kebabs. I'd recommend ordering exactly what I did. read more

Recently went back after a long time gone. The menu hasn't changed much. The food was great. Get the super falafel rather than the dry regular falafel sandwich. Service was quick and patient and kind. Cafe was clean and steady. The harrisa hot sauce could use some more heat but regardless I'm happy to be back and visiting this restaurant again. read more

Really friendly staff. Took order no issues. Got gyro really fast to go. Took it to a park to eat and the food was really good! I'm not Mediterranean so take that with a grain of salt. I personally really liked it and I WILL be back again. The decore and the architecture were cool too although it seems like it gets hot it there. read more

So glad I stopped by. I am visiting from California for work and was looking for a local restaurant to eat lunch. I stopped by this quaint cute place located downtown and it did not disappoint. I ordered the chicken kebab plate. It was so full of flavor, the perfect size leaving me fully satisfied. The price was very reasonable for the portion that you got. I was glad I ordered water to go with it so it did not take away from the delicious savory taste. Great customer service from the team as well and my food came out promptly. They had soft music playing in the background and just overall was a great lunch with a view of downtown. read more

Great Greek food and great service ! Will always go back ! My favorite is Greek Salad rock star raiding Ambiance is fun, friendly! read more

Great food and service. The falafel is some of the best I've ever eaten. Gyro meat was excellent, good hummus.

Affordable, timely, and delicious--there is no trifecta more powerful or rare for a restaurant in my book; and yet the unassuming Med Cafe nails all three and does so without any gimmick. Expect a friendly face behind the counter when you walk in and a no-frills environment to simply enjoy one of the best cuisines out there. The food? Yum in my tum. I'd been craving Greek food for a few weeks and I'm so glad this is where I finally got my treat. I hope you'll soon get yours too. read more

Still, after many many years, the absolutely best. The falafel are perfectly crispy and seasoned and the spicy tuna pita sandwich never fails to be absolutely fantastic. read more

Great food! Highly recommend ...wonderful service. Great atmosphere as well. The best part was definitely food!

There salads and sides are superb, especially if you are vegan and/or vegetarian. They make everything fresh and are so friendly.

You've got to come here if in the area. The Gyro pita was well seasoned with a perfect balance of tzatziki, feta and veggies. Just perfect!!

Nice server, cozy ambiance, delicious gyro. Hot, seasoned fries. Great place. The gyro meat was thinly sliced (I like that) and abundant. read more

Stopped in on a Saturday drive to the Springs. The food was great, the service impeccable and the place has just the right mix of funky vibes and the love of making great food for people.

The food is fresh, not overly salty, flavorful, and prepared with skill to look appealing. Highly recommend the gyro and Greek salad for a quick lunch. read more

Delicious Mediterranean food! We came here right when we made our way into Colorado Springs. Staff was super friendly, plenty of seating, plenty of menu options. Clean! I got the falafel pita and loved it. My husband enjoyed his chicken gyro and my mother in law and tons of amazing things to say about the soup of the week - roasted cauliflower! Reasonably priced too which we loved. read more

I live right up the street from this place, and it's my favorite food spot in the Springs! I go anytime I have a day off from work. The food is amazing, and the owner is so kind. Everything is delicious, and they always give you great value for your money. I highly recommend the harissa sauce on their pitas--absolutely delicious!! read more

Great service and good price. Good food and lunch options for a quick bite. Quick turnaround on orders.

The food was extremely tasty and fresh. I got the vegetarian plate! Would highly recommend this spot as the food is nourishing and the staff is friendly. He brought out silverware, offered to get me water, checked in on me and also took my plate. So nice. read more

Food and service is always great here! Would go more often if we were closer to downtown.

I was in Colorado Sprints to visit family and we stopped here for lunch one day. We ordered the Mezze for our ap', humus, harissa, and baba ganoush were our flavors. For our meal, we ended up all getting the Gyro Sandwich, it was hands down the best gyro I've ever had, the tzatziki was on point! The service was also excellent! The owner waited on us hand and foot and he was so polite and friendly. The ambiance was cozy. I enjoyed it for its homey and no thrills environment. read more

My favorite downtown hole-in-the-wall. Love the food, love the guys working the counter, and live the east in-and-out. Can't beat this place! read more

Delicious food and excellent service! Highly recommend adding this spot while visiting Manitou Springs.

Since we moved here we've been disappointed in the Greek/Mediterranean food options until now. We tried it for the first time yesterday and we found what we were looking for! Everything was wonderful! read more

Food is alright, enough to fill you up if you're hungry but not something you'll go out of your way for. The lamb gyro is not recommended. Menu lists lamb but the sliced meat has the consistency of luncheon meat--not the actual meat with fibers. Mediterranean salad is okay. Grilled chicken was a bit dry. Service was pretty good. Place was relatively clean and quaint. read more

We stopped in here to grab a quick lunch to go and we're SO glad we did. The service was speedy and friendly and the food was even better! We got the vegetarian platter, chicken gyro sandwich and an order of fries. It was all delicious! So many flavors and sauces I couldn't get enough. We can't wait to eat here again. read more

Food was fresh and flavorful. We had Gyro plate, Greek salad, dolmas and falafel. They also serve a small variety of beer and wine. Servicewalk up in order and they will take your prepared food to your table. Guy at the front was most pleasant and helpful. Appears this café has many regulars and is comfortable and quaint to dine in. read more

Absolute must try in the downtown area. Their dolmas are the best I've ever had! Plus, you can't go wrong with $3.75 for local beers. read more

I am Arabic and love Arabic food so I saw the sign said Jerusalem hummus and I got excited. I went in around 2 and I ordered the veggie plate (hummus, falafel, rice, tabbouleh, domas,etc.). The price was reasonable for the amount of food, however the quality of food wasn't really there. The domas did not taste fresh at all, the fattoush wasn't really how you make fattoush. The falafels tasted like the mix I buy from the store and make at home. I wanted to like this place but I can confidently say that I probably won't be going there again. And if you decide to go, I would go earlier in the day...maybe the food is fresher then. read more

The best Falafel and Baklava! Staff was super friendly. One of the best Mediterranean meals I have ever had.

I live in the Denver area, so unfortunately I don't have the opportunity to visit nearly as often as I'd like to. After searching for vegan friendly restaurants in CS, we stopped in, not expecting to be surprised by a veggie platter or falafel wrap, but this place is next level. The Super Felafel Wrap is my favorite, with the unexpectedly delicious addition of pickle bits. No overcooked, dried out felafel here, just perfect crunchiness outside, combined with a moist interior. My husband, who has long thought he hated stuffed grape leaves, has been converted. They are wonderfully tender and flavorful. My sister refers to their spanakopita as her soul food. Several other family members highly recommend the gyros wraps and platters, as well as the chicken shawarma. You pretty much can't miss with whatever you order.This place is wonderful! read more

I have not been to the Mediterranean Cafe in many years. I used to go to their Citadel Mall location many years ago but it closed a long time ago. I was working near Powers Blvd and it was a long trek for lunch to come downtown. I had forgotten how delicious the food was. I had the small portion of hummus. It was delicious. It had a creamy consistency with a good mix of chickpeas, sesame seed paste and lemon juice. The pita bread was soft, warm and fresh. I had the half and half pita sandwich with half lamb/beef gyros meat and half falafel balls. The pita bread fresh but firm enough so it did not fall apart while eating it. The sandwich had a yogurt based sauce in it along with many fresh vegetables. It was a huge sandwich and delicious. The meat excellent and the falafel even better. They now have harissa hot sauce (a North African condiment). The iced tea was a lemon herbal tea and delicious. read more

This place is soooo good.we were greeted super friendly, they had patience, and were very attentive to us. Place was nice , and clean . I haven't had a lamb gyro in forever so this treat really hit the spot! Yum! read more

Great affordable lunch spot downtown. We all loved our food and the serving sizes were quite large. Order at the counter and they will bring it to you at a table. The place is small, but carryout is also available. I highly recommend the lamb kebab plate. The lamb is grilled to medium and so flavorful and tender. It comes with rice, salad, pita and bread with hummus and tzatziki sauce. read more

ordered take-out the other night: falafel, Vegetarian platter and a gyro platter. It was ready on time. Everything was delicious! Cold salads, hummus, best falafel outside of Jerusalem (have eaten it there!) and the gyro meat was perfect. We will definitely be back and are lucky it's just around the corner read more

So delicious and fresh! Love to eat here. Local and healthy options for everyone. Highly recommend

I wanted this to be good but it missed the mark. The gal at the counter who was also our server was great and very sweet, she did a great job being the only one taking orders, serving food, and busing the tables. The food on the other hand, well it is the least authentic Mediterranean food I have ever had. We started off with the dip platter that had on it the red pepper humus, regular humus, and tzatziki sauce. The humus's were good, but the tzatziki was way off not enough cucumber or dill, no flavor. Also ordered a small order of falafel, they were very small and very over cooked. My husband & daughter ordered the lamb kabob plate, with the lamb to be cooked medium rare. I ordered the chicken kabob plate, and our son went with the chicken pita. Everything was overcooked, the chicken was hard and chewy and the lamb was way over done one piece was like brick. Our son did enjoy his chicken pita, so there was that. Not sure what happened here, and they didn't make a fan out of me. read more

We were on a road trip back to my home state of tx and decided to try this place based on Yelp reviews. My chicken Kabob was not cooked thoroughly, I let the cashier know and he promptly took it to the kitchen. The humus was not very flavorful, and it was warmer than I'd like. The rice was really good. Fries were crispy, the tzatziki sauce was runny and bland. Overall, it wasn't terrible, but for the price, I expected more flavor. Didn't even take pics cuz the food was uninspiring ‍ read more
