Jolina's Mediterranean Cuisine

Mmmmm... very good. 👍🏽

Google keeps providing great suggestions on areas we've never been.

Very cute, clean little restaurant with excellent food and excellent service. I think it is just one man here and he is very efficient! Cute, quiet atmosphere, and good portion sizes.

As you can see by the pictures the presentation is great, and the last picture speaks for itself! No doggie bags needed! 👈🏽😁

Very nice traditional experience. We had 2 Turkish coffees, so I will probably be up until next Tuesday, but it was also very good. 👍🏽

We will definitely be back.😁

My husband and I loved Jolina’s and will definitely be going back for more! The food tastes like a home cooked meal and we loved everything we ordered. The owners are very kind also they checked on us many times to see if we needed anything. Definitely recommend this restaurant!

The food here is really delicious! It's one of the best Mediterranean restaurants in Pittsburgh. The prices are amazing as well. Yesterday, I tried their spanakopita, rice pudding, and kunefe. All of it was truly delicious.

Their spanakopita was excellent. It was crispy, filled with loads of spinach, a nice amount of cheese, and the portion was great. I also appreciate that they weren't too buttery (although they did clearly did butter up the filo, it just wasn't excessive). You get 2 of them for just $6. If you order for takeout or delivery, heat them up after you receive them. The warm spanakopita make for a fantastic light dinner or snack.

The kunefe was somewhat untraditional, but I still loved it. Normally, kunefe is made with a cheese. Here, there is no cheese, but you still get the sugar syrup, shredded philo, and what seems like nuts. It was also delicious and maybe even better than some of the traditional versions I've tried. Crunchy, nutty, and sweet. For just $3!

The rice pudding was also tasty and comforting. They pack a lot of the pudding into a container! It was very heavy when I picked it up. The flavor and consistency was perfect: lightly sweet and lusciously creamy. Such a great take on a classic. Also for just $3 (and an incredible portion)!

Overall, this is a great place to get some snacks or a light dinner. I'd like to come back and try some of their meats. But, their desserts are delicious and spanakopita is incredible. Prices are great and so are portions.

I loved, loved, loved the food here! Best Baba Ganoush I've had in any Middle Eastern restaurant- the flavor was so fresh and vibrant! The portions are large and left overs can be brought home for another meal! We had the Chicken Shawarma, Fatoush salad and Artichoke salad, as well as the best homemade iced tea which had a lovely sweet flavor that was not too sweet. The prices are very reasonable, the service excellent and the food comes out fast! It is a small establishment so plan to arrive before peak times to get a seat! The food is flavorful and very memorable!

Super cute little local Mediterranean spot with the friendliest service and the juiciest chicken shawarma 😋. Stopped here for lunch with my mom on our way home from Phipps. Will definitely be back!

Takeout ordered - Vegetarian Mazza, Pita, Kanafee, Bakalava. Good spread. Adequate quantity. Tasty. Very friendly and informative lady in the restaurant, and I look forward to an experience dining in the restaurant.
Takeout doorway has a step and so not accessible by wheel chair. Not sure if dining area has an accessible entrance.

I enjoyed dining here with a friend on a quiet weekday afternoon. Jolina's offers good table service, and our server took the time to describe the various fare. Our entres were nicely presented and generous portions, each prepared with a masterful blend of spices; authentic Lebanese cuisine. The babaganou and grape leaves are favorites! Platters come with flavorful rice pilaf, salad and your choice of meat or kabobs, or a sampling of all. Each table was adorned with springtime and Easter decorations. There is metered parking on Brookline Boulevard, and it is BYOB, which I will keep in mind for my next visit. I plan to return to try some other menu items. Definitely a find for those who like good middle Easter food!

Very good. We were craving lamb and they did not disappoint. Delicious, and best lamb price in the area. We got takeout and it was super fast, ready in 15min.

Jolina's is my family's go-to restaurant for a great healthy and family-friendly environment. Toni, Randa and Sam are the best wonderful people.

The meat pie may be one of the best things I’ve ever eaten. It’s so simple and so flavorful at the same time! Gyros are out of this world. The baclava is phenomenal. And the lady working is very nice. 10 out of 10.

I ordered delivery through UberEats and everything came well-packaged and at the appropriate temperature. The portions were generous on every dish. The lubee was delightful, with rich, warm, vegetal flavours pairing with a fragrant rice and a side of pita. This is my first time trying foole and I was impressed, the fava beans have a creaminess cut by a bit of lemon juice and a selection of herbs (parsley, mint, and garlic) that makes it a refreshing summer dish. The kanafeh was very good, like many Mediterranean deserts it pairs well with a coffee to cut the sweetness. Thanks for a great meal!

The best spanakopita I've had, hands down. I also loved the hummus. That's all I've had so far, and I can't wait to go back.

Great food! Pilaf, sleek, spinach pie, & baklava we’re all fantastic - everything we ordered was delicious. Great place to try new things. A perfect place for lunch or a BYOB dinner. The chef cooked and waited on us. Very nice and friendly guy. Will definitely come back

Highly highly highly recommend this hidden gem in the Brookline area. Super fresh food and tons of options to choose from. Portions are also very good and the service is also top notch. The owners are super friendly and we will be back very soon!!! Support local 24/7 in Pittsburgh

Amazing! If you love Middle Eastern cuisine, this place is it! Everything is absolutely fresh, tasty, authentic and delicious, not to mention healthy!!!! One of my best friends in Israel told me some of the best restaurants in Israel are actually Syrian-owned and it's a well known secret there and ya know, I think he is right!

Service was warm, friendly and welcoming. I only wish they had been playing some music. Syria is, after all, (sorta) the birthplace of music.
We can't wait to go back!!! Also, it's BYOB. Go!!!!

We got take out for the first time from here and the food was delicious! The woman working was so friendly and kind. Highly recommend! We got the chicken shawarma, falafel sandwich, hummus, and spanakopita. All delicious! And reasonably priced.

This is one of our new favorite restaurants! We tried it for the first time last night, and legit ordered it again tonight. The meat is so flavorful and juicy, the salads are fresh, and the rice is seasoned perfectly.

We've been eating her for a few years now and the only compliant I have is they sell out of their delicious kibbie quite often, but that never stops us from coming back. Everything always looks and tastes fresh with consistent quality. Awesome staff, highly recommend! Parking can be tricky at times due to location, but it is in a walking neighborhood, so you expect that before arrival. Totally worth the 3 or 4 circles to get a spot.

We come here at least once a week, the food here is incredible. We especially like the soup and the chicken dishes! If you have not been there you need to go!

Still one of the best dates my wife and I have been on; We need to go back. We do get take out from time to time though. Extremely friendly service and the food is amazing. Everything ive had has the perfect balance of flavors; it's quite extraordinary. I had the Beef Kabob Sandwhich tonight and it was no different; Beef was slightly tough but tasty and the marriage of flavors and exceptional quality of tahini ans produce made up for it. Brookline has Mediterranean cuisine on lock.
