8 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Florence

“I have never lived in NJ so everytime I want to eat something delicious I drive around an hour to go this place and it is totally worth it .The staff are really nice and I feel comfortable.The place is very clean and quiet.I highly recommend lahmacun.“

“Everything is delicious, but I especially love the stuffed grape leaves and baklava. My parents love the falafel, which is shocking because they never liked it before. Very flavorful and crispy. Staff is friendly, place is very clean, and my order is always right. Great place!“

“We live in the area and have been here several times. Probably the best vodka rigatoni I’ve ever had. My husband has frequently been disappointed in his meals. The steak always seems to be undercooked and certain dishes lack seasoning and flavor for his liking. I always order the vodka rigatoni so I’m never disappointed it’s literally the best!! Cozy atmosphere too.“

“Adam Kabob and Grill is a modest space in a strip mall. You probably passed by it on route many times, but it's this type of "hidden treasure" place that has the best food. I spent more money on gas than I did for my Beef Seekh Kabob platter! The plate was covered with food. The beef kabobs were spiced just right (savory, not hot spicy) and tender. The host was very friendly and welcoming. He thanked every customer that picked up food for their patronage and was polite taking orders over the phone. He even generously brought me a side of hummus on the house out of kindness and the spirit of giving. They also have vegetarian options. I will definitely be back to try other dishes. The only question I have is: When are you opening a restaurant in NJ?“

“Best seafood I have ever had. My boyfriend and I were beyond satisfied. The portions are more than other places I've been and already come with vegetables.Garlic Butter sauce was the best sauce I've ever had in my life. The service is also very welcoming, they called us themselves to let us know they're out of mussels.Ordering again tonight.“

“Absolute gem. Go here now, I mean tonight. Not much to look at as you pull up, but ignore that. Clean and welcoming on the inside.Babaganoush was smoky, silky, fresh and bright on perfectly cooked bread. The mixed grill had a bit of everything from the menu and we loved it all. Meat and vegetables grilled on charcoal and perfectly seasoned. Everyone from the guy that only eats grilled steak to the Indian food afficiando will love this place. Staff was warm and welcoming. In a world of chain restaurants serving poorly cooked processed crap, we need more places like this. Delicious, fresh, healthy food with character. Don't know what you are missing. BYOB.“

“It’s about the food, It all about the food The dissatisfaction I have is that there is no professional suggestions to help you select what goes into the bowl. They once had a menu showing suggestions but now it gone and no one helps you understand what goes good together.“

“A very delicious Mediterranean restaurant and perhaps the best in town! It's better than any small Mediterranean restaurant you usually see around but it's not at a fancy scale. The atmosphere was well maintained though not extravagant. Almost everything was well seasoned and well portioned. I really enjoyed my experience and food here and definitely recommend it to anyone who likes Mediterranean food.It's only a shame I won't be able to eat here more because I'm from out of town.If I ever am in town, I'd definitely return.Blue Fig Signature Dish 5/5 - A balanced, well presented, and nicely portioned dish with a plethora of delicious meats. Athough it was quite pricey, it was very well worth it. You get to try the different and exquisite flavors that they offer. My favorite was the lamb chop. It was the juiciest and most flavorful out of all 4 meats. I recommend getting fries because they pair really well with this dish. In fact, the fries are really quite delicious, well seasoned, and battered, which means they came out super crunchy.Burak 3/5- the halloumi filling was not so flavorful and the dough was not so crunchy as I would prefer. In addition, the quantity was pretty small, even for an appetizer.“
