Mediterranean in Swansea

We ordered a takeaway, the kindness and attention to detail could not be bettered. The food was so tasty and well presented, even as a takeaway. Thank you, we highly recommend this restaurant.

i visited mediterinan restaurant in weekend saturday with my friend. they welcomed us very well as i reserved before hand my table was ready waiting for me. the food and prices very very affordable also the service was really good. if you ever visited the swansea i definitely recommend you to try this turkish cuisine.

This is a diamond of a place! The food is superb. We went on a Saturday night and the place was packed, also they were serving a large number of takeaway customers, some of which were eating on the sea front enjoying the view. Despite this the service was really welcoming and attentive. Yes we were close to other tables but it was a nice friendly feel. We shared a whole grilled sea bass and spicy chicken kebab which was good quality meat served with a variety of fresh salads and rice and a tasty yoghurt cacik. Really authentic and fresh Turkish food with a variety of choice and reasonable prices. The street outside looks a little run down but don’t be put off!

Hospitable hosts, delicious food , the service we received was so good. ADANA is must try, the ambiance and price is not recommended.

We booked here and when we looked in it seems dark and unappealing but don't be put off. As soon as we went in we were made to feel welcome and the atmosphere was buzzy yet relaxed. Our food was delicious- freshly cooked and generous portions. My chicken dish was tender and flavoursome- Turkish salad was delicious too. The waitress was delightful and attentive. Good value - we would definitely go again.

Really lovely, freshly cooked food. Cooking open to the restaurant. Just so simple but absolutely delicious. Good value

A wonderful evening. There were four of us. The staff were friendly and attentive. The menu was great and my wife, a vegetarian, had a lot of choice. Drinks were great . Each course was a delight. I had triple kish which was spectacular. The desserts were wonderful. The toilets were good, always a positive. The meal for four with drinks was less than £35?each which I thought was great value. Definitely worth another visit next time we are down in Swansea

Really amazing food, tasted just like we were in Turkey. And service was outstanding. Highly recommend when you are in Mumbles

We had a delicious meal here. The service was excellent, including catering for our dietary needs. We will definitely be eating here again.

Loved this place, the service was amazing, very friendly, helpful staff/owner. Food was great, we had the mixed platter, which had a little bit of almost everything, great way to taste all the different dishes

We had booked at 7.30. They didn’t seem to have registered our booking. We were led upstairs to a very noisy cool bustling room. When we arrived a light bulb was flickering which was upsetting as I am susceptible to migraines. The manager quickly resolved the issue. I chose red lentil soup which was delicious. The main course I chose was not to my taste. The barbecued kebabs had been marinated in bbq sauce but when served with rice, grated carrot and cold red cabbage was very dry. There was no sauce to mop up the rice. My husband chose a hot prawn dish served on a bed of onions and peppers in tinfoil. It was watery and tasteless. His main course was equally disappointing. Minced lamb pressed into a long strip. Lots of processed meat which when served without a sauce was very dry. It was difficult to choose from a menu that wasn’t very explicit. Sorry this was a costly bad experience! £53!!

A lovely experience all round this evening. Decided to try this place after receiving recommendations from family. Not disappointed at all. Watching food being grilled to perfection on the charcoal grill in front of us was very interesting. We chose the two course sample meal, and were treated to a selection of cold and hot starters and a huge platter of grilled meats and rice, along with salad. We rounded the meal off with a portion of Baclava to share and felt that all the food had been top quality. The restaurant got very busy towards the end of our meal, and we did have to wait a little while whilst our server looked after a large party upstairs, but we received a sincere thanks for our patience and left full and relaxed. It was a chilly evening and every time the door opened we were glad to be sitting right next to the grill.

The food was delicious and the service was excellent A party of 12 for a family birthday celebration, Nothing was too much trouble even though the restaurant was busy We all enjoyed an evening in a lovely relaxed atmosphere

We loved it here. Delicious food and great service. This little place puts the big restaurants in Mumbles to shame.

Great selection of dishes, all of which were delicious. This was our second visit. We were offered recommendations for starters when we couldn't decide and we weren't disappointed. We'd been advised by the manager to leave room for baklava - we were too full the 1st time! The baklava rounded off a fabulous meal, but then it was topped by receiving a round of Turkish coffees with Turkish delight. Despite the large amount of food eaten, no one left feeling stuffed, so there must be some secret in the combination of Turkish food and drink! Great food, great atmosphere and service!

Our sea bream was excellent, but the rest of the meal - rice, veggies, salad - rather tired. And the meze plate was pathetic - barely enough for one person, served to a table of four. Desserts were equally inadequate.

This resturant has as they say in estate agent world , not allot of kerbside appeal . But step inside and you have a small , cosy , friendly restaurant , serving great food . The portions are generous the bill great value . what's...

We paid a visit to Mediterranean on my husbands birthday and really enjoyed our experience. The food was freshly cooked and plentiful. Service was attentive. We would return if we were in the area again.

Have been going here for years . Food and service is always excellent which is rare these days . Can't fault it. Nothing posh but clean with top quality food and service

We last ate here back in 2009 and had good memories of the food. We haven't been back in the area since then but dinner here passing by was a must. Service was friendly, the food was well cooked but presentation now lacked inmagination. A...

The food is always delicious and the welcome is always warm. We love it that they help us choose - something different each time. We love the mixed kebab but it is all amazing.

The service at the restaurant was excellent - we were encouraged to try new dishes and were brought a variety of starters to try. The food was also very good, and the staff were very knowledgeable and helpful regarding allergies. We also appreciate the manager...

What can I say, except a MASSIVE THANK YOU to Hussain and all of the staff at The Mediterranean. 23 of us visited for my husbands 60th birthday, and it was like having a party at a friend's house.From the moment I contacted them, the...

Superb food and hospitality. Service and hospitality from the management absolutely first class for our friends birthday celebrations. Hey, the food here is delicious.

We had a great evening here. The lamb kebabs were delicious, cooked on an open fire in front of us. The accompanying salads were a little dull but the rice was good. Would certainly recommend.

Our first visit, authentic Turkish food, simple but very tasty, lamb chops wonderful, wine not expensive but good, will go again

The meat served was dry and somewhat bland. It was accompanied with a very ordinary salad and no smile came with the service. I will not be returning or recommending this establishment.

A fabulous first time visit. The host was welcoming and took time to explain the dishes to us even though the restaurant was busy. The food is expertly cooked and coupled with the excellent service made this a meal to remember. We’ll definitely go back!

We had a long-awaited family get together last night, and our choice of restaurant could not have been better! Excellent menu, catered for all of our preferences with ease. A few bottles of Sauvignon and some delicious lagers were also had. The food was really...

My husband and I went for dinner at this restaurant when visiting Mumbles. This is a Turkish restaurant with lots of options for food. We chose various small dishes to have a kind of a meze and we loved all of them. There was plenty...

Small restaurant which feels very relaxed with top quality turkish food with some extra little touches that you don't get in many places anymore. Highly recommend this restaurant.

dry chicken with a pile of raw carrot and raw cabbage, very disappointed, poor service, didn't even get a smile from the waiter, would not eat in there again

We had a fantastic meal at Mediterranean. The host was very accommodating and was more than happy to make recommendations for both food and wine. We decided to go with the recommendations and were not disappointed at all. The food was so tasty and also...

Lovely food and a very warm welcome by the host. Explained the menu and very satisfied with everything we had. Would highly recommend and we would all visit again if our travels take us back to the Mumbles.

Great Turkish food, friendly service. The building is a bit tired but it doesn't spoil the ambience at all. Good online booking system with personal response.

I have always loved this restaurant but I was a bit disappointed in my last visit. The meal I chose came with bread, rice and salad, as do most of the mains. Each of us had an individual portion of rice but I had to...

The food was excellent and reasonably priced. Initially we were seated on a table in the corner which didn’t leave much room even though there were only two of us. The waiter was reluctant to move us despite several other tables being free, only convinced...

Very friendly restaurant - and generous, tasty dishes - succulen t kebabs, spiced aubergine and minced lamb to name but two...

Efficient booking and we arrived quite last minute but service and food were spot on. The lovely owner recommended wine and also made a delicious meal for me which wasn’t on the menu. I had no idea what to order and his choice for me...

I don’t usually write reviews until back home from holiday...but this was one of the BEST meals we have had in a while - and believe me we have been fortunate to eat at some really amazing restaurants in London and around the world on...

The waiter talked us through the menu with real knowledge. We all chose different dishes ( we were a party of 4) and we were all really pleased with our meal. When the bill came we felt we had had great value.

Some food really good, some bland. Sides they imply will be free are charged for at quite a high cost - be careful! Hygiene dubious.

We enjoyed an excellent Turkish meal with a mezze starter (we chose 5 dips to share from the extensive menu) followed by a dish of kebab meats, really for one person but we found it was ample for two. We had pre-booked for early Saturday...

Booked at short notice, Hussain did us proud. Party of 5, we asked him to recommend a selection of dishes as we had little experience of the cuisine. We had a selection of starters and mains which were all superb followed by baklava, turkish coffees...

We had a lovely meal here Sunday night. Superb food and lovely service. Plenty for a gluten free diner. Great Prosecco.

Booked here after reading great reviews on TripAdvisor and The Mediterranean did not disappoint! Delicious, well cooked, flavoursome kebab meat, reasonably priced, and good size portions. The host was lovely and recommended a great bottle of Turkish wine, which was a fantastic compliment to the...

Stayed in Mumbles for an extended weekend break. Wanted something a bit different so chose this place on the back of the reviews. Not disappointed food, lamb chops and chicken wings were both flavour some and plentiful. Turkish spices just made them a little special....

I love Turkish food and was therefore very happy to discover the Mediterranean on a visit to Mumbles. Obviously, during lockdown, the restaurant was only operating on a take-away basis, but the quality clearly has not suffered as a result. We ordered borek, suçuk and...

Visited on the advice of Trip advisor reviews with 2 hungry teens in tow. WOW. Not only was the food delightful, tasty and beautifully presented. The recommendations were well suited the boys portions, huge, just how they like them! Mine was extremely good with lots...

Excellent service and amazing food, The lamb Chops were to die for, We will be back for sure ❤️❤️ xxx

On a very rainy night in Wales it wasn't quite the same as being in Turkey which was our original holiday plan but hey ho , the food was delicious and the welcome was friendly

Nice place & friendly, efficient service. Not fancy or pretentious but good quality. We had the Mediterranean kebab which was epic. Only odd thing was the waitress couldn’t take a tip via credit card, a shame

Ate as a group of 6 last week including vegatarians and children. Wonderful tasty food cooked fresh for you. Trust the chef to choose the 3 course menu for you - you will get plenty of variety and more of the menu to try this...

Romantic little place. Best meal we have had in a long time. Amazing mixed kebab, the most delicious hullomi we have ever tasted and perfect wine. Very enjoyable experience. Definitely recommend.

Spent a while searching for a restaurant to eat at on trip advisor and found this gem! Absolutely delicious and did not disappoint! starters and mains were amazing and very big size! .. the grill is all open so you can see the chef cooking...

Unfortunately this restaurant appears to have paid no attention to the hygiene requirements generated by CV-19. We arrived and were reluctantly given a table, despite having pre-booked. The table was pre-laid with a plastic (not single use) wine menu on the table. After about five...

The decor is a little dated although that could also be the style, however the food is spot on. As a previous regular visitor to Turkey, I can say the Mediterranean is authentic. My Adana kebab was just as it is in Adana!

What a fab take away. Great service, I rang the restaurant and left a message informing them of my order. They text back to confirm with the price. Order was ready at the correct time and the food was hot. Wonderful food, starters, mains and...

Visit Swansea .... go here ! The food is amazing and the staff are lovely. They love to have kids come along and are very good with them

tasty fresh food cooked to order. Hot coals certainly warmed up the ground floor room. Good vegetarian options. Portions not too large.

Excellent choice of vegetarian food, had a selection of hot and cold mezze. Really fresh and tasty, would definitely return.

We managed to bag a table in here early Saturday evening. There were 5 of us. We mixed up the starters between halloumi and hummus. For mains, we all went for the mixed kebab (since 4 of us had never dined here before). We could...

Hadn't been here for a while so called in without booking, we were seated straight away upstairs, but it was really cold. The food was nice but not as good as in the past. The price of the pop for such a small glass was...

Had a splendid meal here with a colleague. Starters were excellent and very filling, great portion sizes. We then had the Mediterranean mix for our main, wow...a huge plate of excellently cooked meats served with rice, salad and pitta. I sadly couldn’t finish it all...maybe...

Got in to Mumbles late afternoon and wanted a nice dinner. B&B hosts recommended Mediterranean, just down the street. Really enjoyed our meal there. Great service and delicious food. Tried the dolmas, some hummas, the lamb kababs and the karniyarik, an eggplant dish. All were...

Cosy atmosphere .We were sitting next to where we could see the chef cooking the meat ! Fascinating .! Staff very friendly and service good .We loved the food .Wine good and reasonably priced

We have been going here for several years. Food is always good and cooked to perfection. Staff are always welcoming and service is excellent.

Hadn't been for a while so call on the off change, so glad we did!!! The food here is always a winner, cooked perfectly. The staff are always welcoming and helpful, such an amazing place.

We wandered into Mediterranean primarily because of the name - as a Greek American, I have high standards when it comes to any type of Mediterranean food. The atmosphere was lively, the staff was cordial, and our food was excellent. I had the lamb, cooked...

Our first visit and very highly recommended. Staff were very welcoming and friendly. Our meal was perfectly cooked with delicious, authentic spices. Delightful setting with a view across the Swansea Bay. We had a Masterclass on filleting fish on a nearby table. That's our next...

This restaurant is always set to a high standard. The staff are so helpful and friendly, the food delicious

My partner and I love this restaurant and have been going for years. We highly recommend eating here. All staff are friendly and we have never had a bad meal. Great place.

Great service and incredible food. A very intimate setting where you can see the chef preparing and cooking your food over the grill. I’d definitely recommend booking in advance as it seems very popular with the locals and tourists. Would pay a visit again in...

Return visit for us, always a brilliant choice!! The staff are always welcoming and the food speaks for itself. A little bit of the Med in Wales.

We enjoyed our dinner although we didn't think outstanding - would have been better is main came with some sort of dip eg hummus or yoghurt sauce. Busy and popular.

Very nice welcoming seated quickly no pressure whatsoever for drinks which is pet hate, plenty of food choices the food was stunning & plentiful lovely family run restaurant no pressure at the end of the meal to leave we all decided we would be returning...

We went early in the evening when plenty of tables were available, but it soon filled up and by the time we left there were several couples waiting for a table. Most nearby restaurants were much less full, indicating the great popularity of the Mediterranean....

It's springtime but why wait to summer to get your taste of the Med? The Mediterranean in Mumbles is a Turkish restaurant apparently much in demand. We got lucky with a late afternoon visit, because by the time we were finishing our meal the restaurant...

First time here last night. Food was tasty and good portion size. That being said, service wasn’t the best. Only around 6 customers in there and we weren’t asked how our food was. I had to ask for sauce because despite being tasty, quite a...

The number one restaurant in Swansea. Food is always fantastic and the service is friendly and top notch

It’s true, all the reviews are correct! Food and flavours are very different to what we eat everyday, didn’t miss chips one little bit. So much better than the food at La Parrilla!

Mediterranean never fails to disappoint. Stunning food. Fantastic service. We always make sure we visit this restaurant whenever we come back to Mumbles.

Food and atmosphere was very good. Downstairs is an open barbecue fire on which all the kebabs are cooked. Large selection of very good turkish food, most meals served with flatbread and salad it was very tasty with generous helpings, staff were very friendly and...

After a busy day in work we regularly get a takeaway - so tasty and a lot healthy than other takeaway options. The staff are friendly and everything is ready when we turn up to collect. Restaurant quality food every time in front of the...

Excellent food with good atmosphere,would recommend to anybody,you won’t be disappointed.Large selection of dishes.

Been coming to this restaurant for a long long time. We don’t live in the area but whenever we’re passing through we come here. From the lovely welcome, Good wine list & stunning food, we always order way too much because the food is so...

Visited with friends on Christmas Eve. .Kebabs rice and salad were just what we needed the night before the Christmas Turkey Dinner. Everything was hot, fresh and delicious and the staff could not have been more helpful and friendly. Its on the Prom in Mumbles...

We probably eat here at least fortnightly, and enjoy it every time. The staff are very friendly and welcoming, the menu has enough variety for our frequent visits, the meat is good quality, and it is reasonably priced. My wife and I tend to have...

We have been here many times as a couple and with family. We decided this was the place to celebrate a large birthday and anniversary of a shared event here with 12 friends who live away from Swansea/Gower but have links here. We were not...

We enjoyed this so much we went back within a week. The menu choice was amazing. The food was amazing. A new favourite of ours in Swanea/Mumbles. Great portions (we keep having to get doggy bags.)

We first found it difficult to choose between the many kebabs. We choose the 2 courae party dinner and this was great. Many apetizers. Many kebabs. No third course needed.

Starting with several starters our party of four enjoyed the meal. Tasty entrees were plentiful, tastefully served and seasoned just right. We had lamb and chicken kebabs and they were tender and moist. Finally, the prices were very reasonable. We would definitely recommend Mediterranean in...

Visited this restaurant a couple of weeks ago whilst staying in Mumbles. The food was delicious and the staff fantastic. A great find and somewhere we will definitely revisit next time we stay in Mumbles.

Great food....great service and ice cold Bollinger....Brilliant. The flavours of the food are superb and the staff are very polite and pleasant the turkish delight at the end of the meal a very nice personal touch. Thank you again and see you soon.

don't know where to start! never eaten in a Med restaurant before but a friend asked me to try, it was fantastic. Everything about the evening, the food was so good and served to you so quick and piping hot!! been back a few times...

Another Mumbles gem! We had lamb skish kebab and lamb chops and it was amazing. As frequent visitors to South Wales we will definitely eat there again.. And they also do takeaways... And Ffes lager... In short this is another reason I want to move...

Delicious! Absolutely delicious. We had mixed plates and the meat was melt in your mouth - spices beautifully blended. I was so impressed. Female server was also very realistic and helpful about making suggestions from the menu. Loved it.

On holiday in the area and someone we met here recommended Mediterranean. They weren’t wrong. Beautiful food, served quickly. The staff are friendly and attentive. You will not be disappointed.

My husband and I really enjoyed our meal together here. I had the vegetable kebab (aubergine, courgette, mushrooms, pepper & haloumi) and we shared some baklava for dessert. The food was delicious and the service was good too. We also enjoyed the little pieces of...

Tasty Mediterranean food, prices are a little bit on the higher side. Lovely location on mumbles. loved the kebabs
