I do not know a lot about medi...
Posted by GoBears13 on 02/26/2009
I do not know a lot about mediterranean food but this is a good spot if I get the craving for lamb, baba ganoush? and other greek foodies. The cafe is in a nice spot on college ave and you can choose to eat inside or outside. I always get the mixed plate which gives you a nice sampling of everything they have to offer. It sometimes mixes together but it always tastes good in the end. They have a sweet baklava which is really good along with their hummus and baba ganoush? It's a good spot to take friends if they haven't had greek food before.

I got the Middle Eastern Plate for $9.95 that comes with chicken cilicia, grecian spinach & feta, levant sandwich, and lule kebab or chicken pomegrante. Served with choice of green salad or american potato salad or cup of soup. Hands down the chicken cilicia fillo was the best, so freakin' good. mm mmm mmm...I am def going there again.

Trois location not so good!
Posted by mrfunny on 09/25/2006
Don't get me wrong, I'm a huge fan of La Med! I enjoy the Noe St location and when I want to get my shop on, with some yummy food in-between, I head over to the Fillmore St location. So I'm one of thoose city people that scuff at the idea of "going over the bridge" for an outing! So I bite my tongue and headed over to La Med to begin my Sunday outing. So when we get there and they don't have La Med's perfect sized lunch menu, which I have ordered from the other two locations on weekends, I knew this place was "different". When I asked the waitress why no lunch menu, I was told it was now only dinner. It was 1:15pm! Okay, so I ordered my fave, the chicken kabab with the yummy lemon chicken soup. The other two locations prepare the soup like a puree. Feels great going down! The Berkeley soup was chunky and lumpy with whole pieces of chicken and pasta. The kebab was dry and didn't have that great taste that I'm used too. The lemons were good! In a nutshell, I'll stick to this side of the bay for my La Med fix!

tasty food and good catering
Posted by scol on 02/07/2006
I've eaten at all locations of this restaurant over the years and have always enjoyed my meal. In addition, they have a great menu of catered items, such as chicken cilicia and tiny spanikopita, which I like to get as finger food for parties.

A Favorite for Mediterranean Food
Posted by Jeff W. on 12/05/2005
This little place on College in Berkeley is fantastic. It's often crowded, but worth the wait. The prices are very reasonable, it tends to draw a very hip Berkeley / Rockridge crowd, and the outdoor dining is great, even when the weather is pretty cool. Definitely worth a try.

Mediocre Food
Posted by tanyamo on 08/19/2005
I just read all the reviews and I sort of agree with some of them. The only thing I probably like there is the atmosphere, nice cozy little patio outside and good service. The food is so so. According to one review the chicken is dry, and the lamb kabob lacks flavor, so if you are a meat lover this place may not be the one for you....

Great Mediterranean Cuisine
Posted by Jeff W. on 04/24/2005
A small but excellent place for some different fare. Lots of authentic Greek and other dishes from the region. This is a very casual dining experience and they even have some outdoor seating. Not right on campus, so you don't get so much of the college crowd, but it's very much a young and hip crowd.

Great food!
Posted by cl_foodie on 03/21/2005
I've been here a ton of times and never get sick of the food. Get the sampler appetizer platter which allows you to try everything on the menu. This gives you great variety and you can get a little bit of everything. They have a chicken pie thing that has raisens and chicken in it and is delicious!

My favorite
Posted by rachelmullis on 05/18/2004
The Bay Area is a food mecca, we all know that. And yes, there are plenty of great expensive restaurants out there. But my most important standby is La Med. I have a driving need to eat there at least once a month. My experience with taking people to La Med is this: they either love it or hate it. And I love it. The hummus is so, so yummy, the mediterranean drip coffee, the fabulous chocolate mousse, and my normal entree: vegetarian middle eastern plate. But I used to eat meat here and it was always good too. Only drawbacks I ever noticed: sometimes pita bread isn't the freshest, and their chicken could, at times, be a bit dry. But the ambience -- whether for a nice early breakfast, a leisurely and lovely lunch, or a cozy, romantic dinner -- is tops. Go there!
