The best restaurants in United Kingdom serving Mediterranean food

I eat at Don Diego in Birmingham. It is Spanish restaurant and food is very good. I feel like in Spain. I try tapas and they are delicious. My favorite is patatas bravas and calamari. The restaurant is small but nice. Decoration is like Spain and music is good. I feel comfortable. Staff is friendly and they help me choose food. I speak little English, they are patient and kind. I recommend Don Diego for people who like Spanish food. It is good place for eat and enjoy.

We received a warm welcome and enjoyable Turkish cuisine here. There's plenty to choose from, including a good vegetarian range and wine from Turkey itself. Leave room for baklava, if you love a proper dessert! We'd love to return

Amazing food ! I ordered the mixed grill and a side of olives. The meat in the mixed grill was tender and the flavour of the seasonings was really good. There was also a nice accompaniment of bread and sauces served with the meal. I will be visiting again and would highly recommend others visit too.

I visited as a solo traveler but a lover of jazz and cocktails. The bartender was very welcoming and chatty, made me feel at home despite being on my own. Also makes fantastic cocktails, he’s an artist - didn’t catch his name unfortunately. Would recommend +++

Lovely evening. Busy for a Wednesday but charming & attentive staff who kept the delicious dishes flowing. Drank a stunning tempranillo. Well worth a visit.

Nice restaurant in a lovely old building. Fantastic choice, even for the vegetarian which was unusual. We opted for a cold meze and hot meze to share with a salad. The service was fast, friendly and the food was very tasty. Good selection of draft beers as well as wine, which is quite unusual in a Turkish restaurant.

Honestly some of the best food I have ever eaten. We had the set menu and there was so much food for 6. They even replaced every meat dish for the sole veggie in our party. I am still dreaming about the cheese and cider pot, and the meatballs and steak were just so delicious. I live on the mainland and was staying with friends, but the food is so good I would be tempted to come back just for a meal and get the ferry home! Also service is top notch - attentive but low - key at the same time - you didn't notice wine being topped up and dishes being cleared - fab fab fab!!

I wrote this back in February 2020 when this place was in the o2 centre: I was haplessly wandering towards Wagamama when I was intercepted by one of the waiters working at this adjacent establishment. ‘Good evening sir, the restaurant you’re about to enter is an insipid and hackneyed chain’, he proclaimed, ‘and we have a chef preparing fresh food on site, we offer fusion cuisine and an unrivalled view of the YO! Sushi conveyor belt and what’s more we’ve climbed to the lofty heights of number 38 on the TripAdvisor rankings’. Coincidentally I had recently made a resolution to only consume fusion cuisine, so needless to say I was convinced. Upon entering the already excellent lighting was adjusted to my taste... I’ve lost the second page of my review, but from here on in the experience just got better and better. I look forward to tracking this place down again in Dalston.

Warmly welcomed in and found the restaurant to be nicely decorated and comfortable. Staff were really friendly, attentative and looked after us well. The star of the show was the food which was simply delicious. We were only there about 4 hours ago but have already recommended it to other family and WILL be returning again. Thank you!

Found this place for breakfast. Good selection of mediterranean style breakfasts prepared fresh to order by friendly staff. We really enjoyed ours. The takeaway savoury pastries in the cabinet looked tempting too.

Never been before, always so busy when i’ve passed, so today decided to see what all the fuss was about! Decided on the meze plate! asked to change the vine leaves for halloumi, no problems all! was expecting it to come out in polystyrene boxes and pots………. How wrong was I…… served on a lovely platter even had a smilie face in the hummus 🙂 Amazing value for money and so so tasty! Thanks guys i’ll absolutely be back!! Hopefully you can see just how much you get for £10

The food was delicious and the service was really friendly ☺️ would definitely recommend!! Will be back soon!!! 🥂🍷☕️

The restaurant was close to where we were staying so my wife and I gave it a try. We had the shared chicken and lamb dish and it was excellent. In fact both the food and the service were outstanding. We have been telling our friends all about it and highly recommend Gunes. Just fantastic!

We were looking for coffee & found this little paradise. Really good Cappuccino, really kind owner and so delicious olivebread. We would recommend it any time.

Fantastic friendly service Would highly recommend Lovely fresh cooked food we all enjoyed it so much our plates were clean
