Cava
A multi-location restaurant out of D.C., Cava is the place to go for customizable Mediterranean bowls and pitas.

If you’re looking for something heartier, they have plenty of fresh-baked pitas to eat with your meal or wrap around it!
Noon Mediterranean
Bright pink Beet Tzatziki? Noon has it, along with eight other fun sauces to drizzle on top of your dishes. Noon offers mix-ins to their bowls and pitas that are unique to the chain, such as eggplant relish, radish salad, and fried Brussels sprouts. The best part? They sell fries to go along with all your entrees, and beer for a workday break.
Aceituna
One of the few places you can get traditional Baklava, Aceituna Grill (located in Kendall and the Seaport) is a great spot for authentic Mediterranean fare. If you’re a fan of shawarma, salads, rice, and plenty of hummus, you’ll find your new favorite dish at Aceituna. If Baklava is not your thing, they offer Osmalieh to top off your savory meal with something sweet!
