Nice fast food place with reliable food. Other people in my party liked their food more than I did mine. Lentil soup was a bit spice but otherwise lacking in flavor. I liked the fried pita strips that came with the soup. Veggie flatbread was not to my taste. For the best Mediterranean food in the area I recommend Ali Baba instead.

Had lunch with friends today after our hike to mission trails park. Wanted to have good middle eastern food and a customer at shakira bakery sent us there. The service was great and the food delicious and very good portions. The ali baba bread made right before bringing it to our table was fresh and hot and great! We ordered their yogurt and cucumber sauce with no garlic... YummyThe server could not have been any nicer.. Explaining every plate so that we did not get any surprises and were able to order smartFor food we had the ground meat kebab and chunk chiken plate

A new fabulous mediterranean has opened. The open kitchen gives you a look & see how it's done. Clean inside & out makes you feel comfortable while dining. The chicken soup & chicken kabobs & a beef, lamb plate with rice were excellent. My only dislike was the cucumber yogurt dip.

4. Sagmani's Restaurant

If you drove by this place you probably would not stop. However, you would be missing a great food experience. This is a genuine Iraqi restaurant. The food includes great kebabs and my favorite-the lentil soup. You are given tons of pita bread with your meal. The prices are very reasonable usually about $8 per plate. The owner is a jovial, friendly guy. You know the place is authentic because it is frequented by Iraqi nationals.

5. Happy Time Mediterranean Restaurant
Reviewed By 332tiffanyg
Family outing ran over time and we had a few âhangryâ people. Just drove into the strip looking to see what there was and stumbled on Happy Time. Restaurant is clean and well decorated. The employees were friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. They had a live guitarist and flutist playing and singing. Lots of food choices with plenty of options. Prices were good. When the food came is was DELICIOUS!!! Hot, nice portions, perfectly seasoned. Then they brought us fresh made flatbread and tatziki sauce we didnât even order. We rolled out fat and happy and will for sure go again!! Wish it was closer to my house. The only thing they were missing was beer! Keep up the good work!!
