Mediterranean Cafe - Pasadena

I would give this restaurant 5 stars if I could. As a fan of falafel, this is the best I have had in the Los Angeles area (and among the best in North America). The falafel plate is vegan and comes with pita, pickled turnips, hummus, tahini, lettuce, tomato, and hot peppers. I highly recommend it! The mujadara (lentils) with rice are also delicious. The service is incredibly fast.

Hands down my favorite Mediterranean restaurant. My only complaint is that I wish it remained open at night because I cannot get enough of it. Eating is ready and ready to go until you get ready. The hummus, salad, rice and meat are all top quality. Nothing else to say.

Fantastic lunch. Great prices. Incredibly fast service, (not even joke, it often comes fresh before I managed to tap my card). The food is ingenious, a mixture of all the things you want, fresh salads, falafel, meat, inlaid vegetables. The only place that it could improve is if the pitas were fresh, but they are still great! I will be a returning customer as long as I live in Pasadena! PS my access is the falafel plate!

To eat these of my favorite places in Pasadena. Very fast, friendly service. Food is tasteful and satisfying. A delicious meal!!!

You are trippin when you sleep in the Mediterranean café! That's the best Middle Eastern food I've ever had! The prices are unbeatable, the quality of the ingredients are top notches, and the overall taste of meat, sauces, vegetables, sides and pita is incomparable. The exterior and interior are somewhat inconvenient, but do not let that stop you coming. The dishes are super fast prepared, often put before you while you still pay! The falafel is moist and crispy, not dry at all! Salad and tomatoes are fresh. I also love to add the hot sauce and tzatziki that are crazy delicious! This should be your way for medium Eastern cuisine!
