The best restaurants serving Mediterranean food in England

I've eaten Pilpel falafel pitta for a long time Freshly cooked to order with a good selection of salad. They are still as good as they have always been. If you've not had one and you like Falafel you need to try it. They are much better than many other falafel bars in the area.

We had tried this restaurant as a couple back in the summer and experienced amazing food and service. This time we took friends for a birthday celebration and were impressed again. Staff friendly and helpful with information about food choices. The place was busy but service quick and amazing food again .

Just reading these reviews. I did not write a review at the time as I hoped it was an isolated incidence, and nobody enjoys leaving a negative review in this climate. I see nobody has mentioned the smell inside the restaurant. As I walked in I wrinkled my nose at a smell that wafted over, I assumed it was a man placed near the front door. I was in a party of 4 adults/couples. We ordered drinks and the meze arrived ! it was a bowl of green dip and tiny triangles of cold hard pitta bread. Nobody said a word as this was a fun night. We ordered main course, I ordered the prawns !! in a sauce which read very appetising. Everybody was served and as an adult I said please start. People did slightly. Then came over again the terrible stench, I looked at the other female and we both mouthed " wind"....the males said no, its the drains. It was awful. I would say I waited a further 15 minutes for the prawn dish, the sauce was a dead ringer for a jar of Lloyd Grossman...by then we all started to speak about the food etc. The other lady got up to go to the toilet, was in there an age. I jumped up and went to the toilet as walking home. I can only say the contents of my stomach left my body, although not quite as as soon as I went to wash my hands, where I had flushed the toilet bowl was rising. I can laugh about it now. Then I had to sit again and my god I was in a state. Flushed again, and again it rose up. I did not say a word to friends until Christmas eve. As my husband and I started our walk I confided my story with " I need to go again" he said you cannot. I said I need to and I scoured alleys , bushes,,,,it was torture, He said, I will rush on, give me your bag, and off he shot. He flung he front door open and I made it. Hopefully the drains are fixed and the prawns are defrosted properly now. It seems so with all the great reviews. I do remember all the staff were attentive, and asked a few times how my meal was. And being typically British I said " fine". The truth as eating the food we all found it underwhelming.

El mejor filete de todos los tiempos. medio raro. mejores patatas fritas con pimentón, etc. si pudiera dar 100 estrellas lo haría. El personal es increíble y amable. simplemente ir, realmente es una necesidad en su lista de deseos.

One of the best meals I've ever had! Lovely atmosphere in restaurant, great service too. The meal was simply amazing. I had the mushrooms and pancetta starter and it was so very tasty. Then my fillet steak was ullnof flavour and was cooked to absolute perfection, along with it's sauce. We shared a lovely bottle of house white, while others in my party enjoyed garlic bread, mozarella, pasta and a beautiful seabass dish. I really couldn't be happier about the food I ate.

Muy suavemente equipo trabajando muy profesional. Increíble desayuno, preparado con cuidado y muy buena cocina. Bonito lugar, unos 20 asientos.

I can't believe I waited so long to try Beba's! The falafel gyros was to die for, my friend had the chicken which looked incredible too. The portions are generous, the coffee is hot, the space is so welcoming, cosy and bright and the staff are wonderful.

Had a wonderful evening once again at The Blue Oyster. Steak night on a Friday is unbelievably good value and fantastic quality steak. Two steak dinners and a bottle of wine for £40 !!!!!!! Can thoroughly recommend the salt and pepper squid too as a starter from the tapas menu, some of the best we’ve ever had. Staff are brilliant and super friendly too. Think we’ll be back next Friday!!!!!!

Maravillosa comida rápida vegana saludable con excelente servicio al cliente y excelente relación calidad-precio. Esta es nuestra elección favorita para comer fuera.

In a town of excellent, varied restaurants this may be the best. Cheery staff. Marvellous food with a Middle Eastern twist. Perhaps the best "full works breakfast' that I have ever had. A pleasant atmosphere, and come the warmer weather, a nice garden. Watch out for the unusual Wednesday/Thursday closure days

This place is such a hidden gem, so reasonabley priced ,food is freshly made to order N the best cup o tea after a lovely walk over the tops!! ha our plates were cleared in no time ,home from home ,so friendly and work so hard they deserve to do well , love it!!xx

Este café está en una excelente ubicación muy cerca del tubo de Hendon. Sirven muy buen café y productos horneados y comidas ligeras, El baño es muy espacioso.

Had a very enjoyable family dinner at Mezze Grill Kitchen. Food was very good and the service was first class, our waiter Nico was excellent.

13 de marzo. Almorzando en Nutmeg. He tomado plato mediterráneo de feta, aceitunas, falafel, pan plano y calamares extra con chile 🌶 dip para dejarte boquiabierto! Tengo que dar las gracias de nuevo por tan ortética comida saludable. Muy bien. Muchas gracias Dave. De vuelta en Nutmeg y quería algo caliente. Pedí Shawarma con pollo. La señora me preguntó si quería chile, le dije que sí, ¿me pidió extra? Dije por favor. Eso es exactamente lo que tengo y algo más. Fantástico en este día frío y húmedo. Buen trabajo Tuve la previsión de tomar una bebida fría con él. No puede faltar la calidad de la comida y el gran servicio siempre con una sonrisa. Muchas gracias Dave Finch

Made a special trip to go yesterday (Friday) lunchtime but they were closed despite showing open on Google. No note on the door to show any exceptional reason for being closed, so seems they just close randomly on a whim.
