    Google Maps point them to a different spot in Molito. They’re beside Chocolate Factory as of April 2022. It was a delight eating here as a vegan, since the staff understands your food choices. They gave only the sauce(s) that were vegan friendly. The menu indicates which ones are vegan, vegetarian, or neither. Too bad they didn’t have vegan desserts when I came. I got the roasted veg soup, and falafel with regular pita. They use simple syrup for their fruit shake. Order a bowl of soup and dip your pita for a hearty meal.

    The Cafe Mediterranean is open in Molito! (Just updated the status and location in Google Maps) it's the same branch previously in Alabang Town Center as confirmed by the staff. They also closed previously during the pandemic. Good Mediterranean food and excellent customer service. Will definitely come back.

    Cafe Mediterranean has been in the Alabang area since the early days of Alabang Town Center, providing Med fare that's satisfying and reasonably priced. Mediterranean food can be an acquired taste, but Cafe Med has their recipes adjusted to the local clientele. At this time, they've transferred to the Molito Lifestyle Center, which is a popular hub for upscale bars and restos in the Alabang area. So far, they seem to be holding up with the kind of cuisine they're offering. One gripe I have from my latest visit is their house hot sauce. In years past, just a drop of this hot sauce was enough to set your mouth aflame. I had gone in fully intending to take home a container or two of that hot sauce, but for some reason, they've weakened it so much that it's become a slightly mild hot sauce. Otherwise, I had a decent experience and it's a place I would not strike from my list of options when I'm looking for somewhere to dine.

    Authentic Mediterranean flavours. Good selections of dishes to choose from but reasonably priced. We ordered falafel (3pcs), Grilled Lamb Kebab, and Beef Gyro Plate. Super friendly and helpful english speaking staff (John) πŸ‘.

  • 4/5 Erik T. 4 years ago on Google
    Great Mediterranean food selection. Their menu are descriptive and can help those with specific food requirement (vegan, gluten-free, etc) make wise food choices. I love their lentil burger, and will definitely order it again. The eggplant parmigiana is delicious too but serving size is too small for the price. Overall, I would recommend Cafe Med to those who are looking for authentic and delicious Mediterranean food.

    It was a good restaurant. Authentic middle east food. The taste is quite below par. Some may like it but I think it's not that authentic and I can get the similar taste in the local much cheaper restos. The service was very good, They were polite and gentle. The service people and the cook took in all the requests with a moment's hesitation. They emitted a kind aura and gesture. The atmosphere is okay. It's clean and tidy and good for pictures. It was a good experience and it's suitable to go for one time. Not my regular place.

    We ordered kebab platter with basmati rice and gyro platter with plain rice and were satisfied with the serving and flavors of our meal. I really enjoyed the taste of the kofta and falafel as well as their hummus which I loved. The chicken and beef were alright, nothing special to remark. On the other hand, the falafel was a bit dry but it was delicious especially with their garlic sauce which wasn’t too overpowering. For our kebab platter, we received double the amount of chicken because the beef wasn’t available. Overall, the food was good and the staff were accommodating and also attentive to our needs.

    Since I grew up in the Middle East, Cafe Med serves variety of foods that can be found in the Middle Eastern countries. For me I always order the chicken gyros for me its so prefect. The pita, chicken, and veggies are freshly made you and will surely love every bite of it. Now, that I am writing this. It makes me remember how it taste and smell that it makes me hungry and crave for it. πŸ˜ŠπŸ’œ The service is excellent. The serves are very polite, accommodating and alert. The atmosphere is good too it makes you feel that you are dining in a different country. Plus, the garlic sauce they make are heaven. πŸ₯° Cafe Med is on of my fave places to dine in Molito and will always come back for their chicken gyros. πŸ’—

    The Mediterranean Map in the Restaurant did not care to include the name of the country, Lebanon. It is on the west of the map, just above Israel(even with tension against Palestine over the name, this was easily added but not Lebanon? where Foods like Tabouleh, Labneh etc came from. I have been to Lebanon and fell in love with the food there, sucks to see this Mediterranean restaurant representing Lebanese food but not the country . All i ask is to add the name of the country it’s such a small thing but one that would certainly make sense to people to see the country on the map. - Maria Liza

    Grilled plates and the kebabs are delicious! But somehow the pizzas are not that appetizing as before. Service is still superb, with the waiters being so attentive. Ambience is still Mediterranean!

  • 5/5 Katherine C. 1 year ago on Google
    Always loved Cafe Mediterranean and happy that they are now in Molito. Their location is also good (near live performances on selected nights and the grass area). It's my first time to visit in this branch. Love the shish taouk which was recommended by the server and the beef gyro plate (we asked for biryani rice instead of pita). Their lassi is the perfect pair to cool your mouth after a spicy dish. The cappuccino we ordered came in a small cup but good nonetheless. L Will definitely come back here. 😊

  • 5/5 Loraine B. 1 year ago on Google
    Servers are kind and the food is good. I like how they cook the food authentically. It also feels guilt free as it is almost always paired with healthy veggies and the perfect not too strong garlic sauce perfect dressing for the food. Also, the price is not too expensive.

    A great restaurant serving healthy Mediterranean cuisine. I'm not sure exactly from what part of the Mediterranean they're from, but the food is delicious and healthy. Service is excellent and attentive. Ambience is warm and homey, but bright. On the pricey side for the average Pinoy, but the size and quality of the food is worth it.

  • 5/5 Shyryll A. 5 years ago on Google
    Happy food!!! Lamb stew, moussaka, moutabal and the hummus are to die for. The baclava is also oh so yummy. I have yet to try the rest of the menu.

  • 5/5 Patrick β€œRicky” U. 6 years ago on Google
    I truly enjoyed my Kofta Gyros! The lamb and beef have that smell I enjoy. Both meats are soft, veggies are fresh, and the pita comes in regular or wheat. Hummus is my all-time favorite Middle-Eastern appetizer. Their version is thick and tasty and accompanied by some pita, leaving enough dip to still eat off a spoon.

  • 4/5 Locel Ann T. 5 years ago on Google

    My first time to try Mediterranean dishes though I have always wondered and wanted to try them a long time ago. My only regret is that I should have tried it earlier - I so love the food - from the salad, meat wraps, side dish/taboulleh to the drinks and desserts. I would definitely be back.. πŸ’—πŸ‘ŒπŸ‘

  • 5/5 Gabie T. 4 years ago on Google
    Cafe Med in alabang town center has been one of my go-to places for med food for years. They make some of the best kofta balls around and can always depend on them for a tabbouleh / pita / falafel fix when I’m craving. I also recently tried one of their new Hummus Bowls, specifically the curried vegetable hummus bowl. So damn good! And highly recommend. I also want to add that not only are the Hummus Bowls delicious, they also benefit UNHCR (UN refugee agency)! Each bowl you get from the Hummus Bowls menu goes to refugees displaced by the Syrian war and victims of armed conflict. Having worked and broken bread with displaced individuals in the past, I’m happy to see that a company that draws much from that region give back and support refugees. kudos to Cafe Med for the effort!

  • 3/5 Danilo O. 4 years ago on Google
    I think we went there on an off-day. Then again, this is the best time to see what they cook fresh and what comes pre-packaged. I ordered lamb kebabs. It was not available. Also ordered Hummus. This was not available. Ordered flatbread...again, none. However, we did order a dip that had Hummus and it was available. We ended up with some kind of toasted bread. The taste of what we ordered was ok...nothing to write home about. Again, they may be having an off day. There were still a lot of people in the restaurant and we came in during lunch so maybe they did run out of some stuff...but I don't quite buy that. I'll come back again at a different date and see if I was right. At that time, another review would be in order.

    This is one of my favorite resto. Their grilled kebab never fails. It's always good. And the taste of their sauces are superb. This is my happy place

  • 4/5 Baineteo 5 years ago on Google
    Pretty decent. Went for the grilled lamb and it was tasty. A couple of pieces was a little chewy and tough, but overall it was well marinated. Whole meal pita makes the meal healthier, but the pita was a little thick and difficult to chew. Could have used a proper steak knife to cut through the lamb.
