Mediterranean Kitchen

My husband and I enjoyed a wonderful lunch date here. The service was friendly and very fast. The lentil soup was excellent, with a great balance of flavors. The lamb shawarma was excellent. Fresh ingredients with wonderful flavor and spice. The portion size was large so easy to make into two meals. My husband and I were thoroughly satisfied, and we will be back again.

I was here for work and placed a to-go pickup order. They were personable and helpful on the phone order. The staff was very friendly and nice when I arrived. Food portion was HUGE and super tasty. Will be back on my next Bellevue work trip. Chicken Shwarma was my order.

Oh man, this place is actually one of my favorites every time i come here i try something different and they keep topping it off! Everything is made from scratch and prepared in a middle eastern way which is the best way. Pretty simple and they serve pretty huge plates..

My favourite Mediterranean place in Seattle/Bellevue Area.

This was only my second visit here but I loved it equally every time. This time I went for dinner and requested a lunch dish which I really liked from my previous visit and they were more than happy to accommodate and make it for me! The portion sizes are huge and they start with a free soup for everyone (which was vegetarian, thank you)!

The atmosphere is very Cousy and fine-dine like. The service was amazing. Coming again for sure!

Saw a guy having lamb shanks so I decided to get the same. It’s on the pricey side but the portion was generous and every bite of the lamb couscous (lamb shank) was so tender and juicy 🤤 Will definitely come again

Wonderful! Love the soup and bread as you come in. Beautiful and delicious food. Wall near window had cosmetic damage but everything was clean. Happy to be there.

We were greeted the moment we walked in and the waiter started us off with their lentil soup and pita bread. The lentil soup was AMAZING!

Even though it was extremely busy, they did an exceptional job in making sure everyone was welcomed, taken care of, and served. Excellent food for a great price, wonderful atmosphere for individuals, couples, and families, and indoor and outdoor seating. Definitely a must!

Great food! The best Beef Shawarma in WA , I recommend this place for lunch to everyone, the best and quick service.

This is some of the best restaurant food I’ve had. Great taste, high quality ingredients, and reasonable prices. Service was also attentive and friendly - it was like I was eating in a friend’s kitchen. The interior is very plain and a bit dated, but don’t let that fool you. Eat here once and you’ll be back!

Fabulous. Their plates are die for!!!!!

I got Lamb shank, lamb coucous on the menu. I was shocked by the portion. A while zucchini, carrot, potato, and a grilled onion! Then there are two Large SHANKS! I feel like I could have them for three meals😂 The meat are really tender and soft, you can peel it down from the bone with your forks. However, I think u may still need to ask for more napkins. Cause the meat stick to the shank is way more flavorful, at least I can’t say no to it. And you can’t stop until finishing the shanks hahah! I will fight with anybody whoever says no to their lamb shank😼

The soup, pita bread, and the dip come with the menu. I love the soup, it’s flavorful and comforting, especially when you come into the restaurant in a freezing day.

Service is also awesome! The owner(probably?) is talkative and sounds authentic about the Mediterranean food!

I wish I live near here so that I could come here very often😂 I’m expecting to try next dish next time!

One of the best restaurants in the world. I've tried hundreds of restaurants and only a couple have come close to this place. The lamb shish kabob and the shish tawook are absolutely amazing and you need to try them. The beef shawarma is also a highlight, and the pita with garlic is fantastic.

I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for an amazing dining experience. The food here was outstanding! The staff were friendly and attentive. Thanks 🙏👍

Food was delicious. Great flavor. Generous portions. Customer service was A+.

The quality of food, the staff friendliness, and even the flavors, are the same as they were 15 years ago at this place. And the quantity of food for the quality is unmatched for anywhere in Seattle area. If you love garlic, and rich roasted deeply marinated flavors, then go here. If you like boiled bland food this is not the place for you. The middle east red wine (Lebanese I believe) there is as good as a really good red from Washington. Chicken shawarma you should split with two people. I will be more than enough food ! Especially with the lentil soup and fresh bread on the house with it.

DO NOT COME TO TALK

This is the best Mediterranean place I have been to by far. The food is SO GOOD that as soon as we got our plates, nobody could say a word until they were done eating. Great atmosphere with dimmed lights and amazing staff. Loved this place, definitely not my last time coming

10/10 recommend

Great food.

If you come on a Friday or weekend make a reservation as there isn't much seating space.
Food is fantastic, staff is kind and helpful and can offer explanations as what things are and can offer recommendations for first time visitors.

Salmon is HIGHLY recommended

A++
Will continue to eat here

Mediterranean Kitchen has been on our top of the top favorite restaurants list for 20 years. The family will welcome you Lebanese style with white tablecloths and cloth napkins with middle eastern music in the background. The menu includes lintel soup and a delicious garlic and olive oil dip with hot fresh pita. We always ask for hummus with more pita because it's delicious. They serve wine and tea which is ethnic however they cater to western tastes as well. The Farmer's dinner plate is a famous entree but you're probably going to need a lot of napkins because these marinated chicken wing/leg pieces are heavenly delicacies. Can we lick our fingers in public? The Shwarma is amazing as well and easier to eat. Salads are a Mediterranean staple so choose your salad. Rice is typically served with the entree except for lunchtime when salad or lettuce such as arugula is substituted. End your meal with Lebanese coffee and baklava, a phyllo dough with chopped pistachios and cinnamon mixes into honey and baked. So delicious authentic and pared with coffee is an awesome finish to complement your evening in a spectacular Mediterranean Kitchen. Bon appetit!

Loved their veggie meza platter that contained all the veggie appetizer samples ❤ The cauliflower fry was my particular favorite! Wonderful ambience, overall a great place to dine-in.

We've lived in downtown Bellevue for a long time and always passed this place up; after 5 years and a recent trip to Greece, we finally decided to give it a try, and wow - it's incredible!

The food is fantastic. it's very flavorful, the rice is cooked perfectly and the meat was so tender (we had the combo plate); the chicken is some of the best I've had in the USA, but the lamb / beef was also very, very good. As others have commented, the lentil soup that comes with lunch is amazing. The baklava...also incredible. The pita bread was so-so, but everything else was ::chef's kiss::

The staff is very friendly and offers great service.

This may be our new favorite restaurant in the Washington area, and we'll be visiting frequently from now on!

It was my first time here & I got the chicken shawarma plate. It also came with a cup of soup & pita for no extra charge, nice! The food was delish, super generous portions, & staff was very friendly! Five stars for them I’ll definitely be back :)
