Eat the business lunch if you can! Great amount of food and a drink for just about $10. I really liked the food here and it was ready quick! It's a little tight on seating so watch out for busier times, I definitely wouldn't recommend going here as a large group either. Overall a nice place with reasonable prices, serving tasty food. Can't wait to try out some of the other offerings like the lamb shank. read more

Mediterranean Grill - Mediterranean Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

First time here. I ordered a veggie sandwich and wanted to add shrimp to it. I was told no, so I ordered a side of shrimp($4 for 5 decent sized shrimp). I also ordered some Greek potatoes. There was one person in there dining in and eating and a couple who ordered to go right before me. It took almost 20min for my order but that's to be expected when food is made to order such as here. 2 people came in with call in orders and they still had to wait quite a bit. On to the deets...got home in 6-8min. The sandwich was on pita bread and so SOGGY!! It was beyond mushy...I was so looking forward to the pita bread which was now ruined. The veggies were SO thick that they didn't stand a chance in that mushy pita bread. So I had a sloppy mess. I basically had to pick up veggies and wrap them in the soggy pita bread. Did I mention soggy?? Could have used more seasoning. It came with tzatziki sauce and some spicy red sauce on the side that was good. The potatoes were good and they gave a large amount, more than enough to share. So would I return? Probably not. I'm a pescatarian until I go full blown vegan. They didn't have many seafood choices. My husband was on a fast so he didn't eat. He wants to try when he's off so if he finds something good then I'll try again. Other than that...count me out. read more

I thought it wasn't a chain restaurant at first but it actually is and I don't care because the food is amazing! We ordered the lamb shank and calamari. Calamari was awesome. For $8 it can feed qt least 3 people so I'm not going to say anything about the price. Taste waste, it's really good. The batter is crunchy and flavorful. It was served with marinara sauce which also taste great, but I like the spicy sauce they have with the lamb shank better. Lamb shank was also big. They served it with pita bread and salad and rice. So definitely a good meal for $12. The lamb meat was falling if the bone quite nicely and it has this sauce that bathed the rice. I'm hungry just remembering it :) read more

Mediterranean Grill - Calamari appetizer $8 - Mediterranean Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

See all

One of my favorite midtown gems! Nestled on the busy intersection of Piedmont and Monroe lies this incredibly affordable and flavorful Mediterranean restaurant. Their business lunch special is amazing. For under nine dollars you get a drink, greek salad, tons of rice, pita bread, all served with a generous portion of kofta, shish kebabs, and gyro meat. I always substitute the kofta for additional kebabs, and Greek salad for tabbouleh, at no additional charge because I love the different flavors. It's not a huge restaurant and booths go fast, but the wait is always worth it. read more

This place is great. I haven't had one thing I didn't love off of their menu. I love the combination feast special the best!

We ordered food to be delivered to my office. The online ordering is nice, but if you make a mistake, it is hard to delete the item. I had added a note to each order with the person's name who had placed the order. When I called to confirm receipt of the order, the person was in shock that I ordered online. Since i called 1.5 hours before our food was to be delivered, I am impressed that they got the order correct and delivered in a timely fashion. Well, when the food arrived, it did not have the names on it. We had to go through the list and figured out who ordered what. Everything tasted fresh and we all enjoyed it. read more

Great food! Fatoush Salad and Hummus are great appetizers. Good seasoning, not oily and certainly different than packaged humus dips. Shish Kabobs and falafels are great. Nicely seasoned and perfectly cooked. The meat wasn't tough or dry. Texture was good, seasoning wasn't over powering, and you could taste the freshness. The food is halaal and they also deliver. My only complaint is they don't have many lamb dishes. read more

Just started eating here while WFH. Got the falafel pita, and it was amazing. Great, fast and friendly service!! This will be one of my go to lunch spots from now on! read more

I grew up with mediterranean food, and this is good stuff. I hadn't been super impressed with the assortment of affordable med. food in Atlanta, and then I got carry out from here. I've had it a couple of times now and it's truly delicious. The lamb shank is AMAZING. I've had the chicken kebob as well which was tasty, but not quite as good as the lamb shank. All of the food is really fresh, with really nice size servings, sides, and options for sauces, etc. They forgot to include one of the sauces I had requested with my carry out, but what they gave otherwise was plenty - and delicious. It's at a great location, too. Highly recommend the lunch specials - they're an excellent bargain for some really awesome mediterranean food! read more

This was the site of my most recent team lunch. It is the first Mediterranean restaurant we have tried and I'm glad we 'discovered' this jewel. I opted for the business lunch special which is by far the best combo bargain I have ever had. It comes with gyro slices, shish kabob, kufta kabob, yellow rice, salad, pita and drink for the low low price of $6.49. Yep you read that right $6.49. The gyro slices were excellent and it was my first time trying the kufta kabob. Can't really say that one is for me but I will certainly go back for the gyro. read more

Mediterranean Grill - $6.90 business lunch. Great deal! - Mediterranean Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Love! Always delicious and very fast service!! My go to is the Greek salad with grilled chicken. I also LOVE their dolmas! Their hummus and pita is to die for! Make sure to order extra pita - it's THAT good! read more

Unique experience. The food is pretty good and decent portion for your money. Been back a few more times and haven't been disappointed.

Terrible food from a nasty kitchen. I don't know how they are still open. I hope they don't kill someone with bad food.

Ordered delivery through YelpEat24. This Mediterranean food is yummy! They have the best falafels in town. Crisp outside moist chewy inside.This order I got a gyro sandwich, a side of falafels, baklava and Turkish Coffee. Everything was delicious! This is my go to place for fast yummy Mediterranean delivery! If I wasn't so lazy I would even drive here! read more

Best gyros in Decatur. I've had a few, but my favorite is the vegetarian sandwich with falafel, tabouleh, Jerusalem salad, and hummus. It's filling but light on the stomach and wonderfully herby and fresh! Love it! read more

I was excited to try this place after all the positive reviews. I might have caught them on a bad day as I only thought my meal was ok... I ordered the gyro platter after reading reviews. My gyro meat came out more on the dry side and didn't have that deep lamb flavor Im used to. I was also sad that the platter didn't come with hummus (although later I learned its only like $1 extra to add it). The portions are nice though. I ate it all and felt pretty comfortably full. I still plan on trying out this place again. I think next time I will have to try out the other dishes. read more

Mediterranean Grill - Gyro platter - Mediterranean Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Absolutely lousy value and average quality. A kids meal at chic fil a has more protein than a $13 plate of food at this nasty little hole in the wall. Pita was soggy. Gross. Sign says "everything is cooked to order". That is a lie. They had everything already cooked when I showed up. My 5 tiny bites of chicken were ready in 2 minutes. Go elsewhere and thank me. read more

If I lived near this establishment a counselor would be needed to talk me down from binge eating. Would include a financial advisor do to the price of the grocery bill for said "binge eating" crisis but the price is better than just right, plenty of valve with the amount of food received to price paid. Most of the time we hit Trader Joe's for the 2 buck chuck, while she is shopping I place an order to take back home 2 hours away. Great place for great food, for the south part of Atlanta. I have to say this because I have a favorite in Lawrenceville too! Get your Greek on! read more

Went here with a friend and service was fast, but my gyro sandwich was ok. I didnt think the meat was great but I did like the pita. My friend liked her vegetarian sandwich tho! read more

We ordered dinner tonight for my husband and myself. We have never tried this place but we like Mediterranean food so we gave it a shot. It was disappointing to say the least. We both ordered the chicken kabob dinner. The chicken was dry and tasteless. The salad dressing that came with the salad was basically red vinegar with some spices. The tzatziki sauce was disappointing. No garlic that I could taste. I would keep looking if you want tasty and satisfying Mediterranean food. read more

I really did not care for me meal but maybe I ordered the wrong thing. There were many people there and they seemed happy. I ordered the gyro which was tasteless and watery and the dolmas which were thoroughly inedible. They gave me seven and I ate 0.25. The Greek salad was not bad. The restaurant was dirty and old. Things other people ordered at nearby tables that looked good included the lamb shank, spinach pies, grilled chicken bites and lentil soup. But how do you mess up a gyro? read more

1st of all I'm under the impression that it's a good sign when you see employees of restaurants eating the food of the establishment. So when I walked in to Mediterranean Grill and saw an employee, on break, eating the establishment's food, I was pleasantly surprised. The cashier was nice and friendly. The 4 stars is due to the fact that I've only been here once and can only attest to the large Greek salad with grilled chicken. Would've been perfect had the salad come with cucumbers and a creamy feta based salad dressing. Instead, it came with a ho-hum red wine vinegar +seasoning dressing. A plus is that the restaurant does not charge for extra tzatziki sauce. Oh, on my way out, a different employee, had just finished his plate of Mediterranean Grill food as well. read more

We walked in with 10 people unexpectedly at lunch time. Service and food were both excellent. The gazpacho soup- fabulous! I will definitely go back when I am in the area! read more

Healthy food, great service! I go here for lunch all the time because it's so convenient

Currently standing in line attempting to pay for my food & the cashier is preoccupied taking a phone order. Very rude she keeps telling me to hold on instead of taking my payment and placing the person on the phone on hold. Seems extremely scatter branded as if she doesn't have a clue how to work her system. Very annoyed with this rude customer service. read more

This place never disappoints. Hummus is creamy and delicious. I love the kafta and also the combination feast. Dont stop what you are doing because you are doing it right! The only problem i have is trying to decide between all the great food. So i usually end up ordering more than i need. read more

The good: It's convenient to grab after work. The tzatziki is GREAT. The food is fresh. Vinaigrette is tangy, not too much EVOO. Feta is so good! The meh: chicken is bland. There's a ton of other flavors to help out (see above) but I do wish the chicken could stand on its own. I get it to go, but the small restaurant, while not exciting, is perfectly clean enough to eat in. 4/5 for comparable Mediterranean spots in Atl. read more

Food is beyond tasty great employees and even better customer service will be coming back.

Called to make sure they delivered to my hotel they said yes. I called back ten minutes later and listened to them finish another delivery order while they left the phone open with me on hold. I heard them say we will call you when we are there and you will come down to get the food in the lobby. Then he gets on the phone to me saying that they are not doing anymore deliveries tonight. I just heard them take a delivery order. This is 7pm on a Thursday by the way. Very disappointed by the customer service and will not be attempting to eat there again when I am in Atlanta. read more

Food at this place is good. I usually get their chicken kabob plate. Its decent. I would say better than Ameers. I have tried their hummus and baba ganoush, but I like baba ganoush at Ameer's mediterranean grill slightly better. Not really into the rice the offer. Service is alright. They are on grubhub. I have ordered food online couple of times and it was ready on time. Baklava is good but not the best. Big parking lot. Try to avoid peak hours though. conclusion: not a bad place to go if you are craving medirerranean food. read more

I am calling the rest of you out. Quit being so fargin precious about your ratings and give this place all five stars. I mean why are you being so stingy? To impress your Sotto Sotto-eating friends? I've been to this place four times in the last week. If you want something with quality ingredients that won't take forever, it's basically this or Chipotle. They cook the food to order; it's not one of those joints that leaves the chicken festering in a hotel pan six hours past lunch. Mediterranean Grill makes it fresh. Their combination plates are a good deal. They gyro meat is spicy and delicate. The kufta is full-bodied and rich. Best of all is the shish kebab: a tasty steak you can get for cheap. Watch out for the hot sauce, though. Even if you like spicy food, you're going to be remembering this four hours later. And not for the right reason. The best part of all is the soundtrack. I think that a foreign-language Suge Knight is shipping CDs straight to them from overseas. read more

There are times that I go through my Male PMS (I like to call it my E-phases...you'll have to ask me about it!) and one of the phases is hungr-E which is pretty much food cravings! Sometimes its a type of food like Greek or Indian or it could be a specific food item like Cheeseburgers or Enchiladas. Now, I have to get it satisfied or I become a "Bridezilla!" Anyways, yesterday was definitely a Greek craving night and I had to find it fast for the sake of my boyfriend! Thank goodness for Mediterranean Grill! I luuuuuuuv this place! It's definitely the fast food of Greek restaurants! If you are looking for a good, healthy and fairly inexpensive dinner check this place out! The staff is very friendly and it's nice to see that they grill the meats when you order and everything taste very fresh. I ordered the Shish Kabob Plate and a small hummus. The steak was very lean and marinated perfectly and the hummus was oh so good! They have a large selection of items that you can get either as a plate (comes with Greek salad and rice) or as a sandwich (can get chips, salad, or potatoes). The prices are very reasonable and you get a lot of food! ***Update: Came here after the yelp! party and the Kufta was amazing! David had the Greek Sampler Platter and was very very happy. Adding an additional star...5 stars...woo-hoo! read more

The pictures of the food on the website don't correspond to the actual food quality or appearance. I specifically asked for tzatziki sauce on our falafel and shishkabob sandwiches when asked what kind of sauce I wanted. Got NO sauces. Falafel was not even close to what I've had in Atlanta; pretty lame. Don't bother with the Decatur branch of this restaurant! Addendum to above: The email below is from the boss of Mediterranean Grill, the same night that I posted above review. I am now rescinding the terrible review above because of his prompt response to my email and change my stars to 4*. Stu "Hey Stuart: We sincerely apologize for this inconvenience. We recently hired new cashiers since the COVID pandemic, and they may have wrote down no tzaziki instead of extra tzaziki. There is no excuse for the mishap, and we take full responsibility. We will work harder with training our new hires. Next time you come in, please show the cashier this email to redeem a free sandwich combo on us. Again, our sincerest apologies for the inconvenience. Have a great night. Sincerely, Said Mousa Sent from my iPhone" read more

As an alleged hipster, loving on a place like The Mediterranean Grill is tantamount to admitting I DVR Dancing with the Stars. Which, for the record, I don't do. Anymore at least. Hey, my wife made me record it! I feel your judging eyes on me, staring, unblinkingly, judging. OK, fine, I once watched an entire season of DWTS (that's what the fans call it) because I wanted to see how good a dancer Emmitt Smith was. I did that. I'll cop to it, just like I'll cop to eating at TMG. It's not the best Mediterranean food in town, but it's by far not the worst, especially when you factor in the price. In fact, when I used to live in the Poncey Highlands, I used to drive to Emory to partake. Then I moved from the Poncey Highlands and they opened a store off of Monroe to prove that I continue to live my life like some half-assed O. Henry story. The gyro meat isn't as good as Nick's To Go. It can be dry sometimes. However, the kabob meat has never disappointed me and that applies to both the shish and the kufta. It's some good stuff and comes as part of the "business lunch combo." At less than $7, it's a good deal. (By the way, I seem to remember them calling this combo the far less politically correct "businessman lunch combo." Now either they changed the name or I'm imagining it wrong, which may say more about me than anything else.) Anyway, this place isn't perfect. The rice could use some work. It tastes waxy. Oh and TMG has counter service or as they say in the biz, "fast casual." Now I wouldn't call it "fast" per se. Sometimes they are, other times it's more like "bring a good book casual." Interestingly, they're usually faster when they're backed up. I think the guys at the grill need the visual of tons of waiting people to kick it into gear. Despite some of these problems, I'm going to grant TMG a solid four stars especially for the kabobs. As I said, I like this place and it's a welcome respite to the many, many burgers I tend to consume. read more

We found our group of four sitting at home and ready for a less-than memorable dinner when, in unison, realized we desperately wanted falafel, hummus, and pita. Enter: Mediterranean Grill. We decided to just drive on over to place our order for takeout and we all seemed to order.... pretty much the exact same thing. Falafel, pita, hummus, potato harra, tabbouleh... I really loved the size of the falafel. They are sold individually and are a great thing to split among many. The hummus and pita were wonderful. The pita especially was nice and chewy and they serve a ton with an order. Also, if you've never had potato harra, you're missing out. Basically "home fries" with some wonderful paprika and herbs, garlic, sometimes onion powder, etc. The variety from Mediterranean Grill was just as wonderful. Once our order was on the counter, it was almost comical how much food we had ordered between the four of us. There were 4 bags total and all were packed to the brim with styrofoam boxes with food. Needless to say, we had leftovers. Delicious leftovers. One thing we all found really interesting was this little cup of, what looked to be, salsa in our order. I don't actually recall what it was precisely, but it was suuuuuper spicy and delicious. It actually worked really well with the hummus and pita. The service was super friendly and the guys behind the counter were really fun to chat with. Everything was stellar. Can't wait to head back for dine-in or another take-out order. read more

A year ago, my newly eloped husband and I threw a little "weddinged" party for friends and family at the bar/music venue where we met. To feed our hungry guests, we opted for something casual, inexpensive and different than your typical "chicken or steak?" wedding fare. The Mediterranean Grill was our choice - a perfect choice. We ordered pretty much some of everything they cater (which is pretty much everything they serve at their restaurants). The delivery was prompt, the delivery guy helped set up the food service, and the food was so excellent. Even my country in-laws, people who don't know kufta from a hole in the head chowed down heartily. The best part, however, was the ordering process, wherein the manager of the Midtown store walked me through the calculations necessary to get enough, but not too much, food for our 200 or so guests. I've loved this place since it opened in Midtown (even though it took the place of one of my favorite Italian Delis. Boo). I'd whole-heartedly recommend both eating here, and asking them to bring their food to you in mass quantities. read more

I've never actually eaten in the restaurant but get the food delivered frequently. It's one of the few places that delivers to our office in a timely fashion. We typically order from the restaurant itself as opposed to ordering through Zifty. It's cheaper and you save the delivery fee. The food is always good here. My favorite is the hummus and the chicken kabob plate. If you get delivery, you should remember to ask for pita to go along with the hummus. For some reason, they do not automatically bring pita to eat with the hummus. read more

Mediterranean food is the best food in the world! (I'm biased because I'm Arabic) Mediterranean grill is a great place to get a cheap taste of many Arabic dishes. The baba gnoush was very good and the lamb shank is to die for. The only things that I was disappointed in here was the service and the rice. Besides that, I would definitely recommend coming here! read more

While I was reading through the Atlanta trash blogs last week I came across a posting that noted Queen Latifah was recently spotted at Mediterranean Grill while in Atlanta filming a movie. I had passed by this plaza on countless occasions without even considering stopping at this place; nonetheless, I figured if it was good enough for the Queen, then it must be good enough for me. Food: Mediterranean Grill specializes in traditional and well executed Mediterranean fare. On my first visit, I opted to start with the hummus and baba ganouj for appetizers, both of which were accompanied by warm pita and topped with olive oil. Although the pita was slightly too chewy for my liking, the hummus and baba ganouj were exceptional; the flavors were so robust and the texture was perfect. For an entree, I opted for the chicken kabob wrap with a side greek salad. The Greek salad was fairly standard, but the chicken kabob was excellent; the marinade was truly unique and nicely complemented the chicken. In addition to lighter items, they also have a nice selection of larger entrees, including lamb shank, falafel, and grilled shrimp. Service: The interaction with employees is fairly minimal at this place, but the interaction I did have with them was pleasant. Upon entry, you place your order at the counter and then proceed to wait until your number is called. Fountain drinks are self serve and you are responsible for clearing and disposing of your own trash in the provided bins. I dined here for an early lunch (11:30AM) on a Saturday and the time from order to receipt of the food was approximately 5 minutes. Atmosphere: The restaurant is small (~ 10 tables) and the atmosphere leaves much to be desired; however, it's important to remember that this is a mediterranean take-out joint, not a sit down restaurant. Cost: Inexpensive for the quality of the food. Appetizer plates (including pita) range between $4 and $7; both small (serves 2-3) and large (serves 4-6) sizes are available. Pita wraps are around $5 and full entrees are between $8 and $11. A drink and/or side can also be added to each pita wrap for an additional few dollars. Other: In addition to dine-in, both take-out and delivery are also available. No alcohol is served. read more
