Mediterranean Imports & Deli

Now, this was the first time I've been here, and I plan to go back and try more menu items, so this is not a complete review. I saw an article in a local food mag about this place with glowing reviews, so after 9 years living here, I decided to try it. It's high lunch time and the place is bussling. There are few tables inside for the amount of people, but a pretty patio can be found outside. If it were a little cooler, I would have gone there, but I decide to take it to go. I ordered a vegetarian platter and several pastries, then decide to check out the store area while I wait. They packed a lot into the little space, and while I love the selection, a lot wasn't marked as to what it was or price, so it was hard to shop. They have a great selection of hard to find herbs, specialty food items, a little fresh produce, candies, drinks, and a large assortment of imported deli cheeses. The cheese could have been better displayed by far, but the selection is epic. A very sweet young man talked to me about several cheeses, giving me samples, and helping me decide what to get. He made the experience for me as I was a little overwhelmed on the store side. Once I got home and tried the food itself, I was underwhelmed. The hummus was excellent as was the tahini sauce, pita, and falafel. The lentil rice dish was okay, but nothing on NuNus, and the tabouli was not nearly as good as Zorbas. The cabbage roll was too squishy in texture and flavorless (again, I am comparing to NuNus). As for the pastries, the date bar was super heavy on the rosewater, but the strudel and the baklava were fabulous. All in all worth the trip as I got to try some decent food, get some awesome cheese, and meet great staff. I will keep trying!

I'm not a huge fan of Greek food so I won't be the best reviewer when it comes to the prepared foods at this little restaurant and grocer. I I can say that the people I dine with there are big fans of Greek food and they love this place. I however love what I can take home from this place and that would include some of the best cured meats and cheeses at some of the best prices anywhere in Oklahoma City. They carry a huge selection of Olives also at very reasonable prices. They offer some fantastic oils at very reasonable prices. I go here for the meats and cheeses that support all of our dinner parties. You can find many exotic cheeses there at prices that will make your jaw drop off! The parking can be a little tight when this place is busy but it's worth the visit. The service is great and in many respects it feels like family service. You will often find the owner working up front at the counter. He loves to see people smiling and his personalized service reflects a passion for what he does.

Okay. Although I will "Like" this restaraunt, the food is only so/so. The tabouli is almost all parsley and almost no cous cous whatsoever, and the eggplant salad is consistently way too bitter to eat, and the pita is very tough. However, they have amazing veggie cabbage rolls that are great served warm with a side of lentil salad.
