" I’m so glad I decided to try out Lisa’s Mediterranean! The food was fantastic; every dish we ordered was bursting with flavor. I especially loved the kofta with rice. The service was friendly and quick, making our entire dining experience enjoyable. The ambiance was cozy and inviting, perfect for a casual dinner or celebration. I left feeling satisfied and excited to return for more! I definitely recommend checking out their weekend specials! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was pleasantly surprised by Lisa's Mediterranean Cuisine! As a lover of Mediterranean food, I have tried many places, but this one stands out for its authenticity and exceptional flavor. I ordered the manti (Turkish dumplings) and they were delightful—packed with flavor and served with a rich yogurt sauce that balanced everything perfectly. The ambiance is relaxed, making it perfect for both a casual meal or a special occasion. The staff is very welcoming and eager to help. The portion size was decent, although I would have loved just a little more. Overall, a wonderful place that I'll definitely be returning to! " (*Curated Review*)

" You're in for a treat at Lisa's Mediterranean! My first time here was incredible—the ambiance was cozy, the staff attentive, and the food delicious. The eggplant dip is a must-try! Everything is fresh, from the ingredients to the final presentation. I loved the flowing conversation with the staff about their favorite dishes. This will not be my last visit! I give it a full five-star rating for a satisfying experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had dinner at Lisa's last night. The ambiance was nice, cozy even. We were greeted by friendly staff who seated us promptly. The food was enjoyable but not particularly memorable. My lamb dish could have used a bit more seasoning, while the portion was adequate. The service, however, was great, with our server making sure we had everything we could possibly need. An overall pleasant but not spectacular experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently tried Lisa's and it was everything I had hoped for and more. The food is incredibly authentic and made with care. I initially tried the falafel, which was wonderfully crispy, and then savored the lamb shank that just melted in my mouth. The sides were flavorful and complemented the main dish beautifully. The service was welcoming and genuinely engaging. The restaurant decor is also lovely, creating a soothing atmosphere. Overall, a fantastic experience that has earned a spot in my list of favorite restaurants! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a wonderful dining experience at Lisa's. The flavors are truly reminiscent of what you'd find in Turkey. I ordered the chickpea stew and grilled eggplant, which were both delicious and perfectly seasoned. The service was top-notch; our server was attentive without being overwhelming, and made excellent wine and meal pairings. The ambiance is cozy yet elegant with beautiful Turkish decor. The only slight downside was that the portions felt a bit small for the price we paid, but the flavors made up for it. I would absolutely return for another meal and would love to bring friends to share this experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Lisa's Mediterranean Cuisine with a group of friends on a Saturday night. The ambiance was bustling yet intimate. The service was friendly and quick, but we did find it slightly challenging to get our server's attention when we needed to request additional drinks. However, the food was delightful! I particularly enjoyed the lamb shank, which was tender and richly flavored. The accompanying vegetables were perfectly cooked too. For dessert, we enjoyed the Turkish delight; it's a must-have! Overall, a great night with good food and friends, just a little patience was needed for service! " (*Curated Review*)
