Best Mediterranean Restaurants in Monrovia

So fantastic. The food is to die for. Probably the best meal I've had in my life

The food was perfection. Definitely better than Bacari by far BUT the service was terrible for the price. It was my friend’s birthday and there was zero acknowledgment. Really? Then we had to ask for simple things repeatedly. It’s like we were forgotten. We did not feel special — we felt like we were a nuisance. Our reservation was at 7 PM so it’s not like we randomly wandered in right before closing time. I loved the food but I am already telling friends not to expect great service and they said nah we’ll stick with Bacari then.

Highly recommend this place! I’ve been here so many times because the small plates are well priced and always delicious. I would pay more if they charged more because the food is that good. This is my favorite mediterranean restaurant in LA. We had the glazed pork, sea bass, brussels sprouts, mac and cheese, lamb hummus, and “the best cake”. The lamb hummus with pita was to die for and the cake is my favorite gluten free dairy free way to end any meal. Best. Cake. Ever. We’re still talking about this meal days later. The silverlake location is definitely the most beautiful one and the biggest with its multiple levels of seating within the trees.

I could be the PR for this place. Been bringing many many groups and every time we were pleasantly satisfied in every ways. Yesterday though, we asked for French fries and they didn’t serve as a side dish. Only came with burger or a dish that comes with it. Not extra. Which was a disappointing.

It's a small place but staff was very friendly and the food was ample and very tasty. Everyone enjoyed their order, which included Greek salad, their combo plate, and Roquefort chicken. We had requested a quiet location and got one. I was afraid we wouldn't be able to hear the two musicians in the front room but their music was piped in.
