Simply Mediterranean is a clean, spacious restaurant with ocean blue decor and comfortable seating. The staff was friendly and informative and my food was prepared fresh, yet quickly. I got the lamb mixed grill lunch plate with medium lamb kebabs, chicken and beef kebabs with rice pilaf and fattoush salad. ($27/$30 with tip). You can see the chef prepare your food in the open kitchen. The food is vibrant, flavorful, and came out hot. The lamb is tender and didn't have a gamey taste. The chicken was citrusy and juicy. The beef kebab was cooked to perfection as well. The baklava was sweet, crisp, flaky and fresh. I'll try the gyro and falafel next time! read more

Staff were friendly. I called in a to-go order. The food was prepared quickly, I picked it up in about 10 minutes. It was okay, but not great. I passed through for work so it was fine for a quick meal after a long day, but disappointing. My falafel wrap was small, the flavor was ok. I also ordered the mezze platter. They loaded it up with tzatziki but the portions of the other dips were not equal. It made me wonder if they were trying to get rid of the tzatziki? Also, they only gave me 3 pitas, which were dry, almost stale. I had so much leftover dip and nothing to eat it with. So I had to throw the extra away :( I probably won't come back next time I'm in town. It just didn't taste very fresh if I'm honest. And portions were way off. read more

Simply Mediterranean never misses. Their fattoush salad is so fresh, crunchy, and perfectly tangy like the kind of salad you start thinking about days later. And the pickled cucumbers inside the chicken shawarma gyro?? Game-changer. The mix of tender, juicy chicken with that bright, briny crunch is literally what keeps me coming back every single time. If you haven't tried this combo yet, run read more

First time here! The fries were really good! Will need to come back and try the shawarma wrap! read more

Simply Mediterranean Restaurant - Salad Near Me - Visalia, California

I've eaten here twice in the last month and both times were yummy. The first time was dine in. It was a nice atmosphere. Spacious area with several tables. You order at the counter then the staff delivers your meal. My meal was the fattoush salad then a side of pita bread and hummus. The salad was on point with enough tang in the dressing and crunchy bits a fried pita. The side of pita bread was very fresh and the hummus nice and creamy. I ordered the cherry pistachio dessert which was a small square of something like a more dense gelatin. It was good. Staff is very friendly and accommodating. Another person in my party ordered the lamb kebab and had it cooked medium well and they loved it. Generous portions. My second meal was the same salad and an item called a sambosa , a puff pastry filled with cooked potatoes and spices, really good and a sauce to dip it in, at least that is what I did. A green garlic flavored sauce. I'd go again. read more

Yum, yum, yum I'm a real snob when it comes to meat cuts, REAL SNOB - and I can proudly report that the meat here is delicious both in flavor and cuts! And Sonia the rice and salad! Truly it's all done right. It's clean location. And the they have genuine good customer service, front and back. Thanks for being here and for the fantastic lunch! read more

I've tried many Mediterranean spots in & out of California.. I'm not a big fan of this one. They took quite a while. I felt they lacked seasoning.. The lady in front was nice though. I got the chicken shawarma + Rice .. Again.. I was expecting more flavor.. My husband said his gyro was good. I didn't finish my food, he did. Ambiance was cool, lots of dessert option and bathroom was clean! So that was a plus I would like to try something else next time and maybe a dessert! read more

Great service, quick and clean also has good take out service. Food is always fresh and never misses!

Service was great, the girl has been working there for over 4 years. She was very helpful. Food was good, portions are on the smaller side, but I feel it may be authentic. They do have unsweetened tea behind the counter for an option for drinks. Next, I will try the beef kabob wrap. read more

The food here is very good. The problem is efficiency and long wait times. It seems the priority is call in to go orders. Not recommended for lunch if you must return to work on time. read more

Very rude was picking up my order. Nobody acknowledge me and than when they did a a male worker was very rude

Friendly staff . Asked a few questions... when the cashier or front worker didn't know she went and asked , which was much appreciated. The food was fresh and delicious . We ordered the chicken kabobs dinner ; that came with rice and salad and the beef shawarma with a side of shawarma fries. Meats for both were tender. Fries hit the spot; loaded with all the toppings that want to make your mouth sing a tune. The ambiance was very casual. Loved they had Turkish delights - balava was yummy and a great treat to end the meal. read more

Simply Mediterranean Restaurant - Plate - Salad Near Me - Visalia, California

The staff is great! Smile & welcoming - unfortunately the food is mediocre - drinks were flat - I have been to two Mediterranean restaurants In Hanford that go way above & beyond in the quality of food and service, The rice was very much 5 minute rice out of the box - no taste and salad you had to mix? Never have I had to do this on my own. Last option for a Mediterranean spot to go to in my opinion. Won't be returning. read more

I love Mediterranean food, leaning well toward Greek, as I grew up with Greek chefs teaching my mother Greek cooking a next to an extremely large Greek community. This place was mostly of a Turkish slant, but that okay. Close. Counter ordering went easily with the young lady explaining their food and methods completely , happily and promptly. My wife ordered chicken kabob plate and I opted for lamb kabob . The plates contained salad with dressing on the side and rice as well as the off kabob meats. We were told that the lunch plates contained 1/2 lb. of meat and dinner plates contained 1 lb of meat. Our lunch plates seemed to contain about 5-6 ounces. Close enough that I didn't complain. There was also a sauce that helped flavor and moisten the rice. The restaurant was nice - neat, clean and comfortable. Arabic music was playing throughout our meal. Nice. Follow up service was continuous. All in all, it was a good experience, but I think I'll pass on any return trip to continue to seek some real Greek food. read more

So my wife won a free lunch bowl and we figured why not stop on by and try the food! She ordered a lunch bowl with pilaf chicken shawarma meat and garlic aoli while I ordered a chicken shawarma wrap and dolmas. Also a side of tzatziki and pita bread. First off my shawarma is just like I remember having overseas. All the flavors came rushing back to all my senses. Fabulous just the best thing since the first time I ever had one. Dolmas were on point can't say anymore than that. The bowl was delicious had all kinds of flavors in it. Bread and tzatziki can't ever mess those up. The service was excellent as we were explained what was in every item we ordered. Everything ambiance wise reminded me of a traditional Mediterranean small restaurant. 10/10 would recommend for the future. Will be a repeat customer to try even more on the menu!!! read more

Everything was so fresh and delicious. The Greek salad was very good. Loved that they brought my order to my table

I was so hungry after camping and hiking in Yosemite for 4 days. Simply Mediterranean was up to the task of refueling my tank. I ordered the baba ganoush with pita bread at a starter and the chicken curry for my entree. Both dishes were so delicious and filling. The baba ganoush was creamy and fresh and the curry had a slight kick to it. Staff was very friendly and the restaurant was clean, although bare. There was a constant flow of to-go orders as I was waiting for my meal. I would definitely return if I was in the area. read more

We are visiting Visalia to see Sequoia tomorrow. Lately, we have been able to find authentic Mediterranean food. Today, it is Simply Mediterranean. The food was excellent. I had the beef kbob dinner. The steak was very tender and cooked just right. It was served on a bed of pilaf rice. It also comes with a Greek Salad on the side. There was so much food. We had the hummus served cucumber sticks. The hummus was good with different spices. The service is very friendly with the cashier, the server. The hummus came as an appetizer, just like it is supposed to be. The ambiance is also very relaxing. From the music, to the decor. read more

The food was excellent, especially the Greek salad. Service was friendly, professional and prompt. Thank you read more

I know the place is fairly new to the location, but there wasn't any signage outside. The inside had very minimal decorations. It had a cafeteria vibe to it. Hopefully more effort will be put into the overall ambiance. My order took about 15 minutes to get, but I understand. As mentioned by many other people, the food is served in take away containers with plastic utensils. The food was tasty and I enjoyed it. I was full and satisfied. read more
