The best restaurants serving Mediterranean food in East of England

This is our third time here we just love it. The food is absolutely delicious the ambience is cosy, lovely spots for families and friends. Absolutely recommend. Out waiter Volkan was excellent and very professional.

I recently went to Lavish in Stevenage to celebrate a friend's 20th birthday, and it was a fantastic experience! There were 12 of us in total, and despite the large group, the food wait time was surprisingly quick. The food itself was delicious, and everyone was impressed by the quality. The Staff were very friendly, they really made the experience enjoyable. Overall, it was a great spot for a celebration, and I would highly recommend it! Aston Bowskill, Drinkstuff

Fantastic restaurant, fantastic food and Michelin star service . Highly recommended. The whole experience is one i will never forget

I could not love this place more it’s friendly welcoming and nothing is too much trouble! The food is incredible and the vibe is just what you want from a lovely dinner out! We witnessed people being rude for no reason and the staff were so accommodating- do not miss this place and enjoy every minute as they have found a little soft spot in my heart after an awful bereavement this week they made me smile so well done to all of them and we will definitely be back xx

Another fantastic meal at Laurel House. Everything was absolutely delicious. The kids all had burgers which they loved and I had chicken which had an excellent peri peri kick! The chips are amazing!!

My partner and I dined here for lunch and we will absolutely be returning in the near future. The free garlic bread and drink with our lunch was a nice touch. Hands down the nicest pizza, so fresh! The young lady who waited on us was so pleasant and helpful. This place is a great find.

The food was delicious. Fresh and cooked perfectly. The lady serving us wonderful, helpful. A lovely little cafe, worth trying their tasty Greek food and breakfasts. Coffee good and fruit juice freshly made. What a wonderful way to start the day :-)

Venue catered for a wake that we held for about a 100 mourners. Julia and her staff were brilliant from when we enquired to the day itself. The spread of sandwiches, nibbles and cake itself was superb and praised highly by the attendees including those with special dietary requirements. Thank you

I visited here earlier in the year and visited again today ( New Years Eve ) This is a lovely cafe. The coffee is good. I wanted a light lunch and had a mildly spiced chicken and mozzarella roll. The roll had a crispy sesame seed topping. It was served with a small side salad. My partner had a plain chicken and cheddar roll which was nice. It had carrot cake as well I noticed. Give it a try - you won’t be disappointed.

We really can't recommend the food quality and service at NOSH enough. Hollie prepared 80 bespoke buffet boxes for a family wake on 29th October. We were all so impressed with the delicious contents, the presentation and the service was outstanding. Locally sourced produce and recyclable packaging were both an added bonus. We would be very happy to use Nosh again and have already recommended to our friends and family. Thank you so much Hollie and the Nosh team

I had the pleasure of eating at Vonnies Balkan Express. Delicious veggie somun went down lovely. Would highly recommend you experience the cuisine.

We had a lovely birthday celebration with superb food from Sabor Espanol. Padron Peppers and crochettas to start - with a delicious tortilla - and then paella (mixed seafood and chicken and vegetable) with a side order of pistou. All finished off with a lovely cheesecake. All was cooked to perfection- lovely flavours - add wine for a perfect evening ! Thank you SO much. 10/10.

Excellent and tasty food. We ate with my friends and we thought that we were eat in Greece.we tried gyros if course and it was fabulous...greek salad ,tzatziki ,mousakas and kleftiko were so tasty ..very clean and tidy place too...for sure I will be their best customer...easily recommended.

Lovely Turkish restaurant, this is our favourite one so far!! Food is amazing, service is really good!! I ordered grilled mushrooms and the salmon fillet. My boyfriend ordered crispy battered prawns and chicken shish. He loved it!! I tried a bit of his chicken, tastes so good!!!!! Rice is soft, the salad is flavoursome and the salmon is beautiful!! We are 100% coming back here!!

So glad Brentwood now has an amazing Chef. Every dish here I cannot fault. Fresh, tasty, well presented. The whole team are lovely. Well done.
