After seeing the menu here on Yelp, I went with a party of 3. When we got to the restaurant and received the menu it was very limited items. When I asked the server if they had sold to new owners because this was not the menu that I saw on yelp. He said that they offer a limited menu to make it easier to the kitchen. We ordered lamb kabobs, chicken kabobs as well. The server comes back and tells us that they ran out of lamb. The restaurant had just opened. That was odd. Then as the restaurant started to get busy we noticed that there was lamb on the dishes. Food was good, but it seemed like a bait and switch on the menu. The food does come out as they cook it, it was fresh. I would not go back. read more

We came here for dinner on a Thursday in June because they were running a special discount where kids eat for free. Surprisingly the place was pretty empty. The inside is really cute with pretty tables and a charming atmosphere. The service was excellent and the server gave us complimentary hummus with warm pita. It was delicious! Our daughter really enjoyed their chicken nuggets. We ordered the sampler platter and enjoyed all the different Mediterranean foods. We also each had a cocktail and those were delicious as well. Overall, we had a really great experience and we will definitely be back. read more

Located in Avalon Park, this Mediterranean restaurant really hit the spot! The location is right on the corner, directly across the street from the park, so great views! We ordered the Taste of Mejana and it was exceptional! The flavors were soooo tasty!! I didn't know I liked lamb gyro until today! The sauces were so good, we had to double up!! Everything is made fresh and it was piping hot when it got to the table! The server, Jensie, was on it, making sure that we got the very best service! This is a MUST visit!! We will be back! read more

Mejana Mediterranean Grille - If you wrote off Mejana, I would try again, the food is delicious and I can't believe this place is so empty - Mediterranean Near Me - Orlando, Florida

Ordered online, I ordered 2 different kinds of salads with chicken. They gave me 2 of the same kind of salad which was the most basic boring salad I've ever tasted! This is the second time I have not been satisfied there. Won't be going back. read more

Fallen Gyro! This used to be the place that had my favorite gyro in Orlando with thick cut meat right off the spindle of rotating gyro meat. Now, they take the pre-sliced meat from a steam table and heat it up on the griddle for a bit, so it's not quite the same, but still not bad. I'm not sure if they cut it from the spindle or just order pre-packaged meat now. It used to be counter service but now it seems to be sit down with someone coming to take your order and bring you the food. That's fine, but if you're going to do that, at least check on the patrons (or in my case, patron) now and again to see if they need a water refill or something. They had a pretty decent lunch deal offered (I think 7.99) for a gyro and fries, but the fries are actually worse than Burger King fries (if you can believe it). The pita bread wasn't fresh I probably won't return unless someone else takes over, but in comparison to what it was when it opened and they put care into making your food until now, it's a world of difference. It's a shame, but with 2 Mediterranean places within a few blocks of each other, I'll go to the other one. read more

What a great restaurant in Avalon! Starting with the service: it was great! We wanted to sit outside bc the weather was cooler, but once we sat down realized it was a bit too windy and went back inside. Server accommodated with no issue. Was quick to bring drinks and answered all our questions. We tried multiple items and we were not disappointed. The servings are very large. We did the app basket with baba ganoush, hummus, stuffed grape leaves, and falafel. All delicious! Hubby ordered the mixed shawarma platter (wow so much food!) and I did the gyro mini platter. We could have both shared his larger platter. I felt the mini platter was a good size for one person who is hungry. Will definitely come back. read more

The service and food here is excellent I definitely recommend this place if you are craving Mediterranean food! read more

Really loved the atmosphere but the food could have been better...the chicken was not that tender and the pita bread did not come out warm. Your competitor Avalon Pockets is killin it...flavor of their chicken shawarma is top notch. read more

The food is so fresh and tasty! Justin was our waiter and was fantastic! Very attentive!

So glad we stumbled upon this little gem. We were pretty hungry on a Wednesday afternoon on the outskirts of Orlando and found this place. Excellent food. Friendly service. Located on a corner in a developed residential area with plenty of outdoor and indoor seating. The food was all super fresh and tasty. Hummus, salad, and kebabs were awesome. Spicy potatoes and baba ganouj were great. Plenty of warm, fresh pita as well. Recommended! read more

Cute place server was very very nice. However they served me a raw piece of salmon. When I told them they offered me a 15% discount on the meal. I was ill about 45-60 minutes later. Buyer beware. Just don't order the salmon. Everything else was ok. read more

I found myself super hungry and in the middle of nowhere Fort Christmas before deciding to order delivery through one of the many apps we have available. I was happy to find a mediterranean place in Avalon not too far from where I was. Everything was delicious. I ordered a gyro pita...lots of meat, very tasty. I also ordered the spicy potato salad...its pretty much roasted potatoes with spicy sauce but i liked it. I enjoyed the baba ghanouch and pita as well - the baba ghanouch wasn't as smokey as other places which I found great. The mediterranean salad was fresh...everything was proportioned just right. I was pleasantly surprised with everything I ordered. I will definitely order again and would love to go in person... read more

Mejana Mediterranean Grille - Appetizing sharma platter with delicious fries - Mediterranean Near Me - Orlando, Florida

I'm so glad me and the bf decided to come here for lunch! It has nice outdoor seating but I preferred to eat inside. No music was playing which surprised me at first but I got used to it and we had a nice quiet lunch. We ordered a lot lol-- the vegan platter, kibbeh, and the combo meat platter which had chicken, steak, and a lamb/beef combo I think? I have to say my favorite thing was the vegan platter that came with hummus, pita, baba ganoush, grape leaves, and falafel. Everything was delicious but the grape leaves were very greasy. I'm not familiar with Mediterranean food so maybe it's supposed to be like that tho. The hummus was super garlicky too which I prefer. Compared to Avalon pockets which is right in the area, I think this place is actually better :0 the presentation is also beautiful ! As for the meat platter, the meat didn't really impress me to be honest. I wish it were a little bit juicier but it was seasoned well and I enjoyed the natural meat flavor. It also comes with 3 side choices. Get the spicy potatoes !! I ate them all by myself lol It is quite expensive for 1 platter but it's definitely a shareable size to try new things. I recommend if you're craving fresh and flavorful food! read more

Went to Mejana's to try its Orlando Burger Week. I really liked their Burger week burger because I could really taste the Mediterranean seasoning and spices on it. You can taste the flavor cooked into it. Usually go there to their kibbehs, and their burger had that special flavor. It was a decent size burger and the fries were really good. Everything was fresh.

Service is slow. We ordered food and the server did not bring what we ordered. Had to correct our hummus. Ordered tres leche and never got it. Presentation is not good at all. Food however did taste good. The wait time was super long, and they need extra help with servers. Live-music was there and the saxophonist was great. Just don't go hungry and have time to spare. I believe many order out and that's why the reviews are so good. read more

We ordered online for pick up and the service was fantastic. They were so kind and I really enjoyed our interaction with them. The food was delicious. I'm new to Mediterranean cuisine and everything was very flavorful and we enjoyed everything we tried. The portion sizes are generous and we'll have leftovers for tomorrow. We'll definitely be back. Parking: This is located in Avalon so we parallel parked down the street and walked a couple minutes to get to the restaurant. read more

OMG! Every single thing was absolutely delicious. I enjoyed my meal so much!!! For appetizers we had the hummus. I had the MIXED KABAB PLATTER with Ribeye Beef, Chicken and Kafta with rice, fries and the hubs the Vegan platter with falafel and pita. We were so full that we couldn't try the baklava but that's just an excuse to go back. The place was cutely decorated with lively colors and an elegant ambiance. Our server was so attentive. I absolutely loved this place. read more

It's Burger Week in Orlando. The last place I thought I'd get a burger is Mejana Mediterranean Grille. I saw their $10 promo and thought 'What the heck.' I took advantage of this opportunity to walk a mile to order. (I live across the lake.) Ordered. Then walked another mile to return to get the food. The burger is handmade with their Mediterranean spices and was cooked perfectly. As with all fries you take out they were a little soggy. 4 minutes in the air fryer fix that. I love all of their food. Now I have another reason to go there. #ILoveAvalonPark read more

We googled and found this restaurant. We drove to Avalon lake and saw this cheerful town looks like people are celebrating in several restaurants. The restaurant is over looking the lake . The server at this restaurant is very friendly and nice. We ordered chicken Kebob platter with yellow rice, Lebanese salad and chick peas. The food came and they looks amazing in the platter. Not only it looks good and tasted delicious as well. I love how they are displaying on the platter. The garlic dip has strong flavor however it compliment with pita bread. It maybe a good idea to mix garlic with hummus to balance out the strong flavor of garlic. I ordered extra Lebanese salad and a chocolate cake too. They were all good. read more

We ordered two shawarma rolls and six sides. Three of the sides were great (falafel, muhammara, and baba ghanoush), but the other three (hummus, tabbouleh, and fries) were disappointing. We also ordered kebbeh, but I had to return it--it was hot on the outside but cold and sloppy on the inside. The shawarma was okay, but I was surprised it came with pita bread instead of shrak bread, which is what I usually expect with shawarma. The service was friendly, but our server never checked on us or asked how the food was. From our expressions, I assume she already knew. read more

I took my mother and sister to visit my uncle in Orlando last week, and while in town, I spent some time with one of my cousins at his house. At lunch time, we talked about options in his neighborhood. The Yelp app pointed me to Mejana and a Philly Cheese steak place next door, both were independently-owned small businesses. Decisions, decisions! We supported both. My cousin's son ordered from the Philly cheese steak place, and my cousin, my sister, and I ordered from Mejana because frankly, the food photos looked to good to pass up, and it was the right call. The business was owned and operated by a very friendly and accommodating man and woman. My cousin ordered the gyro, and he really enjoyed it. My sister really liked the seasoning and overall flavor of her grilled chicken kebob sandwich and fries, and I LOVED my beef shawarma platter. We sat on their spacious patio. My platter came with a choice of three sides. I chose yellow rice, hummus, and Lebanese salad. The Lebanese salad blew my mind! It was so fresh and the dressing or vinaigrette they used was incredibly flavorful. I neglected to ask what the deep fried crisp was that the salad was topped with, but it was a nice touch. The hummus was perfect, and the beef shawarma was tender and delicious. I thought my plate was beautifully presented, and I loved every bite. The platter also came with gently grilled pita, which was great for scooping up the hummus and eating with the shawarma. Aside from the dinner at my aunt's house, this was the best meal I had on my trip! It is a MUST if you're in the area! read more

I've recently had a conversation regarding quantity over quality versus quality over quantity. Both sides exist, there is no point in arguing which is best, but there is a point to knowing what is going on and how to spend your time and energy choosing which style you prefer. I think that for Floridians, generally not in the manufacturing industry or subject to long winters, a quality over quantity diet is totally acceptable, even desirable. Case in point: Mejana. I stopped by Mejana and curb side picked up a falafel and gyro meat (lamb) sandwiches, as well as a spinach pie. The sandwiches come with large steak fries, just the fries are winners. The sandwiches are really good also, the falafel sandwich was on the smaller side but the flavors were exquisite, I was very surprised by how able Mejana is when it comes to balancing the spices used in the falafel. I highly recommend this dish. The other dish, the gyro meat sandwich, was gigantic, with lots of meat, great flavors and freshness. A very good sandwich as well. Now, these sandwiches are a couple dollars more than the average sandwich and do not include a drink, but the flavors are amazing. If you want to eat good, and are not motivated to bloat like a toad, then give them a try. Finally, the spinach pie was really good. The dough was fresh and the spinach filling was tangy and perfect, just like a traditional spinach pie should be. A great meal from a small business in Avalon. read more

I was attracted in by the vegan plater sign in the window. The staff was friendly. However, they were all out of falafel and grape leafs. They sold out from the night before. I will have to come back another time. I got the hummus to go. The hummus is heavy garlic. Nice amount on tahini, but could use more salt. I am excited to try something else next time. read more

We ate here during Avalon Park's big Christmas event, but the restaurant itself was pretty slow. Unfortunately, we had some issues. First, we waited a very long time for our food. There was only one server handling the whole restaurant, and she was clearly struggling despite there not being too many patrons. My partner's gyro meat was so dry, it looked and tasted like tree bark. Regarding the accompanying sauce, he said, "If that was tzatziki, that was unlike any tzatziki I have ever tasted." He did not mean this as complimentary. They were out of baba ghanoush and the restaurant offered to double the hummus to make up for it. Baba ghanoush was the main thing my friend and I had hoped to eat among our orders, so we agreed to the extra hummus, but it was still very disappointing. The experience overall was not horrible, but definitely could've been better, hence the rating. read more

Food is always great! They now have an improved menu and remodeled dinning room. Always friendly service.

My son and I went to this Resturant and it was such a great environment. Supporting our locals is important to us. Not only is it important to us but their quality in food is amazing. the large portions, their special seasonings and their unique menu. my father LOVESSS The gyro pita. in fact he ordered 2 of them from how delicious they are. Their chicken nuggets is out of this world. We have tried different nuggets from fast food to actual restaurants and nothing compares to Mejana. I know it sounds like "oh nuggets" but they are really really really good. and to add their FRIESSSS!!!! lord. so delicious. above all, I highly recommend this Resturant to everyone! read more

Food was really good I ordered the Vegan Platter that came with hummus salad and Falafel on top of rice. The only thing is the salad was not good because it was soggy.

Everything is pre made- Vey bland They serve shawarma in Gyro bread not the traditional Shawarma wrap that its supposed to come in.- Not worth the 10 bucks The Middle eastern Grape leaves a pre made canned Greek style grape leaves- dry and flavorless and Not traditional The Hummus & Babaganoush are also pre made- can or jar The Falafel are a frozen pre made fritters that they drop and fryer.- dry and flavorless Service was friendly and the place was clean, food was bad real bad. read more

Let me start with saying I ordered delivery. So I have not been inside or had contact with any employees. Our order was not accurate, we were missing tzatziki which we paid extra for. The food was spiced in a way that was not Mediterranean style but more spicy. The side salad was depressing to the tastebuds and small. The rice had a bone chunk in it as well. And whatever sauce was on the side tasted like garlic-blasted butter. Incredibly disappointing. Definitely not worth the price just to have your tastebuds harassed and still be hungry. read more

Food has such flavor! Absolutely delicious! The decor was modern and clean. Or server was great and gave excellent recommendations.

Solid 5 stars for this new place in Avalon Park. Everything is full of flavor and cooked perfectly. They cater to anyone's taste whether you're a carnivore or vegetarian. We stopped in for lunch and the place was almost empty which meant super quick service for us. You place your order first and then they will serve you tables side. I ordered the Chicken Shawarma pita with a small side of Tabouleh. My son ordered the basic Gyro pita. They do not offer combos at this time so everything is a'lacarte. The food is so good! The tabouleh was absolutely perfect! Perfect balance of parsley, garlic and lemon juice. I tasted the Gyro meat and it was really good. My chicken wasn't dry and was full of flavor. I'm looking forward to visiting again soon to try their hummus and falafel. read more
