from Google"Five Star Mediterranean absolutely lives up to its name. The food is incredibly flavorful, fresh, and clearly made with care. Every dish we tried was packed with bold, authentic taste. On top of that, the owner is genuinely friendly and welcoming, which makes the whole experience even better. You can tell they care about both the food and the people who walk through the door. Highly recommend and will definitely be back."
"Fantastic food and service! Everything we had was so fresh and flavorful. The chef/owner was very attentive and you can tell he puts love into his food. The portions are huge and now we get to enjoy the meal again, at home, as leftovers! Plenty of free public parking lots nearby. We got there right at 11am and had no issue finding a spot. This is such a hidden gem. We can’t wait to go back!"
"My husband and I had dinner here for the first time this past week and we will definitely be back! The food was absolutely fabulous- the best Mediterranean food I’ve had ❤️ The owner was just an absolute delight! Very attentive and kind. Probably the most welcoming man on the planet. It’s clear that he takes pride in his restaurant and it shows !"
"From the moment we walked into Five Stars Mediterranean, we felt the warmth of a genuine Lebanese household. The atmosphere is inviting, clean, and full of the rich smells of authentic Mediterranean spices that immediately make you hungry in the best way. What truly sets this place apart is the passion behind the food, especially from Chef Ahmed. You can tell right away that he cares deeply about what he serves and about every guest who walks in. He takes pride in preparing dishes that are not only delicious but also true to the traditions of Lebanese cuisine. His passion shows in the flavors — everything tastes fresh, balanced, and made with real love. It’s rare to see a chef personally check on guests, but Ahmed does it with a smile because he genuinely wants people to enjoy their experience. The food itself was outstanding. The hummus was silky and rich, the shawarma tender and perfectly seasoned, and the salads crisp and vibrant. Portions were generous, and every dish felt like something you would be served at a family gathering back home. You can taste the quality in every bite. Service was excellent as well — friendly, fast, and attentive without being pushy. The staff clearly enjoys working here and believes in the food they serve. The restaurant is clean, organized, and priced very fairly for the quality you receive. It’s disappointing to see anyone leave a negative review, especially when this restaurant puts so much heart into what they do. Our experience was nothing less than five-star. If you want authentic Mediterranean/Lebanese food prepared with passion, this is the place. Highly recommended — we will definitely be coming back!"
"I went here with a large group as a last minute plan. The owner was so accommodating despite the fact that 12 of us showed up without a reservation. The food was phenomenal - especially the chicken tawook. I would highly recommend going here and if you are with a large group get the family platter - it was delicious."
