Good ambiance with relaxing soft music. Friendly customer service with good communication skills. Food was very good and now they have Indian food options my favorite was lamb chops. Not too spicy and authentic. We also had catering from them. It was well managed by Owner it self. I'll highly recommend MEDITERRANEAN EXPRESS . We will visit again. read more

New ownership... EVERYTHING HAS CHANGED!!! It's turned into an average Indian restaurant. The food has gone down!!! My favorite was the rice pudding!!! When I looked at it it looked filled with actual rice instead of the way the previous owner made it! When I asked the server said "we put more rice in there.. it's the same cook" NO WAY!!!!!! The baba ghanoush was not strained off the seeds and was a darker constancy.... It tasted very bland!!! Won't be returning!!! I HATE WHEN THINGS CHANGE.. FOR THE WORSE!!!! read more

New ownership and food quality has gone down, prices have increased, and servings are much smaller. The menu also is not Mediterranean focused as it was in the past. Such a shame used to be a great restaurant. read more

Amazing Flavors and world class service! While in Marietta, I decided to grab food and Yelp lead me here after a Mediterranean food search and I wasn't disappointed. Being vegetarian I naturally ordered the falafel wrap and potatoes. The potatoes were season to perfection, the wrap was good as well, however, I am a texture person and wasnt to fond of the texture inside the falafels but they did have that crunch on the outside, I've become use to the gritty texture and these were very soft, almost mushy, but they had amazing flavor. The person that took my order was extremely kind and spoke of his SUPERSTAR bread pudding. I almost purchased some but I just ate bread on that wrap. Lol The prices are good and the place was extremely clean. I would definitely recommend this place for large groups, they also have outside seating. 10/10 read more

So disappointing- No idea ownership changed! Was on my way home & wanted to treat myself to my regular falafel wrap that I have been eating for years. Falafel & pita were extremely dry and why there were French fries in my order is beyond me. I regret the tip I added to my takeout total, thinking it was the same business owners. Knocking this place out of my rotation and telling my friends not to bother. read more

Its New ownership and the quality has taken a huge hit and the prices are high. Not only that they are doing different menu items like spaghetti and burgers and fries. Its too bad cause this used to be very high quality food. read more

Unfortunately, the original owners sold this place. New owners but same name and higher prices. They expanded the menu to include burgers, chicken wings, spaghetti...can one small place do all those things well? Trying to make it a sit down place as well instead of ordering at counter, and they don't have the ambience for that. Our food took a long time to be ready with only 1 other table occupied. My biggest disappointment was the $14 med salad that came in small salad bowl, should have been half that price. They did give us a complementary appetizer, their Chicken 65 which was a nice touch. Unfortunately, we miss the original Med Express and won't be back. read more

It is fresh and much of it is made from scratch. The staff is very friendly and proud of the food they serve. It's difficult to go there for lunch. They are very slow. They cook to order on a tandoor grill. Most Mediterranean places have a rotisserie spit that constantly slow cooks meat and when you order they just slice it off and assemble. Being cooked from a completely raw state means it's a 20-25 minute wait from whenever the kitchen can get to your order. Using the tandoori grill gave a nice char to the meat without drying it out. It was a great way to cook it. The salad was also fantastic and well made. I did however have an issue. I didn't check my order before I left and when I got home they forgot the taziki sauce. I also don't know if the gyro supposed to come with more and they forgot but there was nothing more than a pita and meat. No tomatoes, cucumbers, lettuce, etc. So I had a pita and lamb meat. What I got wasn't bad but I'm just used to more. The rice was fantastic though. Some of the best I've had. I'd definitely come back but I feel there is room for improvement and that will keep it from being a regular spot for me. Long waits and forgetting items on the order just took away from what I can tell is really good food read more

More expensive and not as flavorful as I'm accustomed to at Mediterranean Express. No ambiance read more

This place, simply put - is EXCELLENT. The owner is very nice. Food is well seasoned, perfectly tender, and exceptionally tasty. The name may say Mediterranean - but it's a nice mix of Mediterranean and Pakistani flavors. The Naan is fantastic. The Hummus is incredible. The Lamb Chops are superbly juicy. The Beef and Chicken Kebabs are killer. Glad to have an tasty and diverse choice, right near home. Please give these guys lots of business so we can keep them around and we can all eat well for years to come read more

I was pleasantly and overwhelmingly impressed during my first visit to Mediterranean Express in December 2023, my only gripe being the blandness of tzatziki sauce. I became significantly less overwhelmed on my recent visit. Their tried and true falafel was still hearty and very enjoyable, despite appearing to be recooked frozen patties. The falafel balls seem too uniformly machined to be homemade. The appropriately spiced Greek potato wedges, unlike the first time I ordered them, were undercooked. Portions of the potatoes were so hard they remained on my plate, deemed as inedible. The pita bread was consistently on par, once again. Another drastic disappointment was the Mediterranean salad. For a whopping $10 price tag, the customer receives a tablespoon of dry, crumbled feta cheese, several small Kalamata olives, purple onion shreds and stale lettuce. The salad was a travesty. We made the mistake of including a gratuity priority to our food being prepared. A few dollars tip couldn't even get the restaurant's attendant to bring our tray a short distance to our outside patio table. I had to carry our food out myself. It also appeared that the small cups of tap water were dispensed from a thermos jug, not from a tap. I do not know if the Mediterranean Express is under new ownership and/or management, but something has changed, and not for the better. read more

Food was spectacular. At the same time, I do think the staff could stand to be a bit more friendly. I'll be back with friends and give them a second chance. read more

The service was great. The food not bad and I got a chicken gyro. Wow wow wow I didn't realize I was paying $12 for a wrap that looks like the size of a taco. Definitely won't be going back, overpriced. read more

Hands down, best gyro meat we've had since Houston, Texas three years ago and we love Mediterranean food! Service is fantastic (so friendly), saffron rice is fantastic, salad is fresh and the dressing was yummy, portions are BIG; we had leftovers after our little family of 3 was done eating. Pretty rare these days. We'll definitely be back! read more

Mediterranean Express - Gyro plate, falafel, pita and hummus, they threw in cannolis (not my fav but so sweet/kind of them). - Mediterranean Near Me - Marietta, Georgia

Wow! Mediterranean Express ATL is a must try restaurant! The owner was so friendly & let us know that everything on the menu was made to order in house! We tried the 3 Skewer plate (2 Chicken + 1 Beef) and hummus with homemade naan bread that was the size of my head. The skewers were so juicy & flavorful. The rice was also very fluffy & aromatic. Don't forget to try their hommade tzatziki, cilantro & spicy sauce. We ate the baklava once we got home & it was lightly sweet and the perfect dessert following an amazing meal. Everything was so fresh & healthy! They had several people pick up to-go orders, so you takeout as well. Can't wait to try more of the menu. read more

Everything was really fresh. You can tell the business owner focuses on quality of food and he took the time to explain where is food comes from and how they prepare it--which makes a world of a difference. The prices are relatively lower than similar type of food or portions at other quick serve. Great value Try the Baklavah Cheesecake I don't recommend the French fries, that's on me--it's a mediterranean restaurant stick to the mediterranean/middle eastern specialty read more

This place is a diamond in the rough. I can't recommend it enough. Mediterranean Express has the ambiance of the Subway it took the place of, but the service and (oh lord) the FOOD is five stars. It's an amazing place for when I want some great food, but just don't have the time to make myself presentable for a proper fine dining experience. Please, just try it, you won't be sorry. Get a piece of Naan, the hummus, any of the kabobs. Yum yum yum! read more

New , only 3 months new Serving traditionally prepared kebab, gyro, falafel ,etc.... Really enjoyed the gyro for lunch today We will be back for more Nice staff!! read more

We had heard so many good things about Mediterranean Express and were finally able to try it tonight. Ordered takeout - three skewer platter. Comes with fabulous basmati rice and a fresh salad. It was fantastic. So much flavor and honestly enough to feed three people. Also ordered the hummus and naan - again fantastic! Let's show this new local place some love! read more

Very tasty Chicken Souvlaki and Mediterranean bowl. Friendly staff! Note: entrees termed as 'platters' are a regular size paper dish and salad serving. Will visit again. read more

The service was awesome! The gentleman was very helpful in describing a couple of menu items I was unfamiliar with. The food was amazing! Mediterranean Express is a little out of my way but I absolutely will be going at least a couple of times a month! read more

Had the gyro wrap. Very dry and to say it came with lettuce, tomatoes and onions was a real stretch. Almost none of any in the wrap. Many, many better options around. I won't be back. read more

I get the Gyro everytime. It's always delicious and the service is fantastic. I've eaten here ~ 6 times in the last month.

Amazing spot. What a great addition to east Cobb! Staff was super friendly. And the food was amazing. Best bang for your Buck will be the mix platter, where you choose two kababs. I got the beef sheesh and the chicken souvlaki. I can't say which was better because both were flavorful and tender, super juicy. It's rare to have chicken kababs that juicy but they really were perfect. The staff gave us all kinds of sauces, which were really appreciated. Can't wait to go back. read more

I was in a rush so I just tried the hummus and spanakopita. Both were delicious and flavorful. The hummus was a large portion, enough to share with the table. Other items I saw being ordered looked good as well. I will be back again read more

One of, if not, the best restaurants in the area! The owner and his son are very nice and friendly, the food is constantly good, and the restaurant is very clean. We eat here weekly (sometimes twice a week) - the souvlaki skewers with rice and the baklava is homemade! read more

Fantastic place. I will come back many times. Very friendly and helpful gentleman behind the counter. Customers sitting at tables were raving about the great food. My food didn't take long at all even though it has a sign saying it's cooked from scratch and takes a little time. I would have waited 20 minutes and still been very happy. read more

Give this place a try! Just happened to see it on the way into Kroger and checked out their menu and decided to call in a to go order. The shish kabobs are mouth watering and so tender. The hummus is fresh and tasty. The person taking my order and checking me out was so nice and appreciative. He also gave me a tzatziki sauce to try which was amazing and I only wished I had larger container of it. Give it a try - there was only one family in there when I picked my order up. The patio looked nice too to eat in. read more

The food was fresh and absolutely delicious! My husband and I ordered a Chicken Shawarma Wrap, Veggie Wrap, and Samosa. All the food was cooked to order, but didn't take a long time to receive. The owner was very nice and patient while placing our order. The restaurant was clean and surprisingly quiet. We didn't get pics of the food because it was too good to stop and take pics. We will definitely return to Mediterranean Express when we are back in the area. read more

I highly recommend this restaurant. Both the food and service are excellent. I'll be back to try the lamb shops. Don't miss the delicious Baklava. read more

3 gyro platters came with hard bread, rice that was hard too. Only winner was the meat. Not a repeater for us.
