The Most Delicious Mediterranean in Memphis

Casablanca Restaurant

★★★★☆ 4 (441) • $$

"I really love the way this location is decorated with the rugs everywhere. It's such a cool way to decorate. The food isn't really my thing but it's still good quality and I don't mind being brought here. I enjoy the shawerma, especially the one with hummus, and there's other things I'd love to try if I ended up back here. I'm sad they closed their location in Germantown because that was the one I went to the most.

"Most delicious veggie pita and it's truly quick. We prefer to pick it up because when it's delivered it's too soggy. It's worth driving there though."

Sam's Kabab Gyro

★★★★★ 4.6 (219)

"Sam's has the best gyros, pita, and hummus! Even their rice is delicious. Great portions and prices as well.On top of great food, everyone is incredibly friendly and welcoming every time we come in. They will make you feel at home!!"

Cedars Restaurant

"Update - Food is still delicious. The owner/worker is still borderline rude, but in an indirect way.I repeat, the food is delicious! I suggest ordering and leaving to eat it elsewhere."

Ali Baba Mediterranean Grill

★★★★☆ 4.3 (183) • $$

"Fresh food has the chicken prepared I believe two ways I believe the first chicken was a chicken Shawarma and a chicken wrap and then it was like a chicken kebab, but I got pictures of what actually got down for a warm tea instead of a cold iced tea. The warm tea was really nice. It was minty. It was full of flavor. I ordered that again. The service was good, it was a busy place were several birthday party so it was lively, lively environment. Busy busy"

Pita Way - Cool Springs

"Found this place looking for a quick place to grab a bite... and was glad we stopped. Service was fast and friendly to start. Food was delicious. I had a bowl w gyro meat and a ton of fixins and it was so good. My son had the quesadilla w gyro meat and he was highly impressed. Swing by here if you are around."

"So this place was good and my coworkers absolutely loved it. The portions they got were insane and honestly I don't know how they walked after. Sadly my experience was different. I had chicken kabobs. They were ok but took way longer. They were also nearly $20. I cannot suggest going that route. I would be willing to give it a try again but just didn't have the best experience on my first try."

Kings Gyro

★★★★★ 4.7 (122) • $

"In a nutshell, this is a small family business in a strip shopping hole in the wall serving up terrifically delicious gyros. Not much to look at from the outside, and not much to look at from the inside.A sea of parking spaces out front of the strip. A handful of tables close together, so it could easily get packed when busy, but they seem to do a good amount of to go business. Very friendly and efficient. Got the feeling they personally know a good number of their regulars. I can see why there are a lot of regulars. The gyro sandwich was absolutely delicious. Overflowing with a generous pile of crunchy deeply flavorful gyros meat accompanied by whatever veggies you would like. The lettuce was a little brown, but not so much that I was bothered nor tempted to pull off any pieces. Kings will be the first place I think of when I'm in the mood for a local gyro, so overlooking any little flaw in the place or the food, because a neighborhood business like this deserves all the love."

Koftaky Grill

★★★★★ 4.6 (123) • $

"Got catering from here for lunch, had gyro, pita bread, tomato / lettuce / cucumber, and baklava. Very fresh food, pita was chewy and soft, gyro meat was flavorful but a bit too salty. Baklava was too sweet, not very flaky. Really friendly catering though!"

Marciano

★★★★☆ 4.3 (132) • $$

"Saw the positive reviews and decided to give it a try as I visited Memphis for a weekend baseball tournament. Sat at the bar and the bartender said most people were regulars. I see why. Ordered the seafood manicotti and wasn't disappointed. Very rich seafood taste without too much pasta. Would have liked a little more broccoli as a side, but certainly didn't cause an issue. Very good experience and will certainly return the next time in town."

Happy Greek Cafe

★★★★★ 4.5 (105) • $

"Gyros, hummus, Greek salad, and Greek fries all 10/10 items. The prices are not bad at all. definitely coming back"

Chicago Style Gyros

★★★★☆ 4.1 (88)

"What a sweet little family business. Their food is great and they give big portions. They are family run and seem to really care about their customer service from what I've experienced. I always get the combo platter and really like their salad ingredients that come with it. It's in the take out rotation for us now."

Greek Cafe

★★★★☆ 3.7 (108) • $

"Driving north on 65, about 30 miles to go, singing off key to a classic Queen song, watching for the buffalo on the hill, minding my own business, when out of the blue my husband says "we need to eat something. Where do you want to go?" I'm awakened from by roadtrip coma. I shake my head trying to make a coherent statement and sentence when the inevitable "I dunno" slides right out. It's straight to Yelp. Lot's of fast food, nope. Then I spot a 4 1/2 star restaurant but we'd have to get off at the next exit. A half mile and 3 lanes to cross, we get off the exit only to be in the wrong lane. A fellow driver must have taken pity on us with our out of state plate and let us cross in front of him, making him miss the light. We get to Greek Cafe and we were the only ones there. They advertised a lunch special but, thank goodness, we only ordered gyros, they were almost too large for one person to eat. I had the lamb and beef gyro while my husband had the mixed grill shawarma. Gyro oand chicken with grilled onions and peppers. They were off the grill rather quickly and I went through the topping bar with speed. It was pretty out so we opted to eat on the patio. Both gyro were delicious and huge. I was able to get through about 3/4 of it before I reluctantly had to stop. My husband managed to finish his and the rest of mine. Better put - we didn't have an opportunity to eat again until after we checked into our air bnb in San Jose. By then we were getting a little hangry but it was also almost 10 hours since lunch.We'll make sure to build time into our travels to the airport so we can visit Greek Cafe again."

"Holy meat! Gyros here are packed to the brim! I asked for double meat on a salad to accommodate my keto husband and whoa, they packed it to the tippy top. Everything always tastes fresh here - from gyros to salads you can't go wrong!"

Castle Restaurant

★★★★★ 4.6 (65) • $

"At the speech and hearing today for some meetings. My professor graciously offered to buy us lunch from his go to place. We made our selections and went off to the clinic until he texts that he's back with the food. I'm not typically a lunch person so I wasn't very hungry. On the elevator up to his lab I'm asking my colleague, "wow! Is that our food i smell on the elevator?!" (We have masks on and are traveling to the 4th floor) we step off the elevator and I swear it felt like the smell of the food was leading us to it like it does on cartoons. I may have been floating idk. It was delicious! Again, i wasn't even initially hungry but the smell had my stomach grumbling. I devoured the whole thing and it tasted just as good as it smells. My advisor swears by their consistency, speed, and great customer service. 10/10 recommend."

Flames Mediterranean & grill

★★★★☆ 3.9 (84)

"I placed an order through ubereats for lunch so I am unable to give a review on the service and ambiance. This is the chicken Shawarma platter. So, I'm from the North but born in the Caribbean so for me flavor and spice is everything me. Also, I am a big fan of Pakistani, Indian, Thai and other ethnic food so a lot of the ethnic food has been a little underwhelming for me and my palate. Portion size- this was for lunch so goodChicken Shawarma- decent- if I placed a future order - I definitely would order from here.Their flames spicy sauce- was good but not spicy (I have a high tolerance for heat so take this opinion with a grain of salt. Would I order from here again? Yes, I would like to try some of their high rated items on the menu"

Pita Mediterranean Grill

★★★★★ 4.6 (57)

"If you're looking for an inexpensive meal that is fulfilling. I highly recommend Pita Mediterranean Grill. this establishment is located next to a Mexican spot so you may overlook it if you're not careful.Upon entering the restaurant, there wasn't a large crowd, which was cool since I wanted to eat ASAP. Keep in mind that this restaurant does not serve any wine or beer, so if you're looking for something to drink or a cocktail, this restaurant will not be it. if you like lamb and beef, I highly recommend the entrée lamb and beef Gyro it's delicious.I love the fact that they give you your food and plastic to-go containers. and you get a lot of food and did I mention that it's very inexpensive. Definitely will be going back"

Mediterranean Grill

"Used food of your mood delivery service. We ordered a gyro (came with fries), side order of fries, and 6 hot wings. All of the food was deliciousFries were a little limp, but seasoned well. Gyro was packed full and I especially liked whatever the pickled vegetables were in it. They added crunch & a tartness. Hot wings were mild for us but easily fixed at home with hot sauce. I was disappointed that no ranch, blue cheese or other dipping sauce came with the wings. Wings were cooked very nicely, not dry. But I recommend getting sauce on the side if getting take out or delivery as the sauce on the wings tends to make the crispy skin get a little soggy by the time you get them home. I wish I had taken pictures but in all honestly we attacked the food as soon as we got it inside. We were very HANGRY . A great meal that I didn't have to leave my house for! I will be wanting to try dining in the restaurant soon to try more items. Update 2nd order from Food of Your Mood delivery. The Mediterranean Combo is enough to share. It's wonderful. This time I got the wings dry with hot sauce on side & was very pleased with the crispness of the chicken. They put fries in it this time. They didn't last time. I'm so impressed with this local GEM!"

"This is still a awesomeness place Mark the owner is always nice and operatesAll his restaurants very professionally The food is always fresh and I look forward to Visiting his great places the cucumber salad is Always on point and the Bread is always fresh Along with the mountain of rice as well"

Sufi’s Mediterranean Grill & Bar

★★★★☆ 4 (62) • $$

"Clean establishment. Food was pretty good. The beef was slightly tough. didn't ask what the two bottles of sauces were but one had a good kick to it. We shared the special mix and I had the house crafted tea. The tea didn't appeal to me at all. I'd come back to try other items on the menu."

Maro's Gyros

★★★★☆ 4.1 (59) • $

"Stopped here 12 August 2020 with a coworker. Lunch was great, price reasonable and customer service was great. Ordered the mixed gyro. Pita was loaded with meat and veggies. Seasoned fried were tasty. A smidgen over fried for my taste, but were definitely hot and crispy."

Balqees Restaurant & Grill

★★★★☆ 3.8 (55) • $

"We found this place when we set out to find somewhere interesting to eat on Summer Ave. We ordered hummus and mixed grill. The hummus arrived with freshly cooked flatbread, still hot from the oven. Hummus itself was great; with puréed chickpeas with puddles of olive oil. The mixed grill was a feast of grilled lamb chops, chicken & lamb kebab seasoned well and with a hint of char from the grill. It came with a huge platter of aromatic rice infused with spices. The space itself is unremarkable & it seemed like more of a carryout place. But, the food is spectacular. Highly recommend."

Sam's Greek Cafe 3

★★★★★ 4.7 (32) • $

"I've been coming to Sam's Greek for about 2 years now for lunch and I love the food here. The parking lot can get kind of hectic around lunch time but there are some stalls on the side as well as in the front that share neighboring businesses.My favorite is the gyro, gyro plate or gyro lamb salad. Believe it or not, their chicken wings are some of the best I've had. They're big and juicy. I suggest their spicy honey.Their customer service is always friendly. Seating is very limited inside the restaurant. But people tend to eat quick and leave.Prices are great. Super affordable for the amount of food you get.Overall I'd highly suggest if you're looking for Greek or a good place for lunch."

Taziki's Mediterranean Cafe - Jackson TN

★★★★☆ 4.4 (27)

"Stopped by on the way in from Memphis. Had the lamb gyro and the soft pita with hummus. Pita with hummus was as excellent as I expected. The gyro was only marginal. It wasn't bad but not on par with most I have had. Maybe that this is a chain and I usually eat in local small places. Not bad and really the only option in Jackson that I know of for Mediterranean. Service was spectacular and they were all very friendly. Bright and colorful decor as to be expected for a change. There is outdoor seating but not a good option this time of year."

Taziki's Mediterranean Cafe - Bellevue

★★★★☆ 4.3 (28)

"This Taziki's is a perfect addition to the Bellevue One area, and a great options especially for families. Ordering proceeds logically in a walled off line from the entrance where you can grab a set of menus. I personally would check out their daily specials (except for their weekend pasta salad; I think there are better options and deals than this). We typically opt for the whipped feta to start and split two different plates or sandwiches. This feels like the Panera version of a gyro shop, and I love it. Service is so courteous and prompt, not to mention a pretty great suburban shopping complex parking situation. The interior is all blue and white tile which feels fresh and clean."

Amsterdam Deli

★★★★☆ 3.8 (31)

"I really love Amsterdam Deli, one of my go to's in Tupelo ... I'm always recommending it. However tonight was disappointing and unfortunately it was a to-go order. I had the hummus and pita with chicken schwarma, my usual, but the pita was either stale or over baked. It's hard and crunchy which I really don't prefer. For the price I think they should have caught that and given me fresh pita."

Gyro City

★★★★★ 4.6 (7)

"Such a great surprise to find good gyro in Ashland City. The rice could use a little work, but still good. Pray this place stays open. I fear the location may be difficult for them to succeed. Feel like they'd do much better in the wal-mart center. Will be back"

Chicago Gyros Plus

★★★★★ 5 (4)

"My boyfriend and I went to Chicago Gyros Plus at 9pm on a Saturday night. The gentleman at the counter was very kind and eager to help us! I ordered a chicken plate and he had the Philly cheesesteak hoagie sub. Everything was prepared fresh in front of us and took less than 15 min. Overall great service and the food was delicious."

Greek Style Gyro

"Loved this hole in the wall place. We had lunch here last August and we loved the food. We ordered four entrees for sharing and I love their lamb gyro. The owner and his assistants were very friendly and courteous. Thumbs up!"

Zeus Gyro

★★★☆☆ 2.8 (9)

"I love this place. Food is always fresh and tasty. Service is always quick and excellent. Absolutely recommend!"

Shawarma King

★★★★★ 5 (2)

"Excellent food at a great price. We had a falafel plate and a chicken shawarma plate. Both came with a bit of salad. The falafel were perfectly crusted cakes served with baba ganoush. The chicken was nicely seasoned on a bed of rice with naan. We finished the meal with dark Iraqi tea. It has a relaxed atmosphere, but can also host events. The personable owners are a couple who manage and cook who played great hosts. We'll be back."

"This place has the absolute best Alfredo I have ever had. The garlic bread they served it with was perfect too!"
