Mediterranean Cafe - Greshamville

Cold pita bread. Bland taste. Worst shawarma I have ever had.

I stopped in here for the first time ever to get a lamb shawarma to-go. I was on a mission to compare lamb shawarma between two places: here at Mediterranean Cafe and Dubai which is located down the same street. Upon entry, I was greeted immediately with a friendly hello and placed my order. The staff was surprisingly attentive and quick to give me my order while sending me on my way with more smiles and cheery good-byes. So very refreshing and very important to the experience any customer expects.The seating area I noticed wasn’t anything special and felt warm inside so I can’t really mention more than this and four stars are given for atmosphere just because it was stuffy inside.But, the food…Oh my gosh! I didn’t know what to expect but with my very first bite my mouth was made happy with the perfect combination of mouth-exploding flavors! The wrap was chock full of meat and vegetables. I ate half and put away as me and my partner headed to Dubai, where he wanted to eat.I purchased the lamb shawarma at Dubai, paying over $5 more for the same sandwich.This is why you get five stars, there was absolutely NO comparison! Mediterranean Cafe killed it over the mess I got at Dubai, which I regretted having to take more than one bite. I’ve shown the difference between the two in my attached photo. Mediterranean Cafe lamb Sbawarma is on the left and Dubai’s lamb Shawarma (again, cost over $5 more) is on the right and wrapped in foil.I’ll let you be the judge.So, to anyone wanting the perfect shawarma and the best bang for your buck, Mediterranean Cafe is the place, hands down!!Thank you for such a great sandwich and excellent service!

Stopped in for a quick lunch and thoroughly enjoyed their food and hospitality. I definitely recommend the hot tea on a cold day!

I tried Chicken Shawrma plate. The food was average, the chicken did not have the authentic flavour. The salad was just average, rice does not feel like well cooked.

You can't help but like this restaurant because the staff is really nice and friendly. Nice lentil soup. Get the mint tea.
