    I’ve been coming here for a very long time; over a span of twenty years I would say. The items in the menu have been as good since I’ve started going there. The gyro with a fattoush salad is my favorite combo. Their desserts are a hit too from the variety of cakes and their tasty baklava’s too. Drop in for a meal in your birthday and you’ll get a free slice of cake 🍰 :)

    Stopped here for lunch and we were pleasantly surprised. It doesn't look like much from the outside but the food was fantastic and the service was good. We'd recommend this place to anyone.

    Poor customer service. We've always loved the food, but the last time I called in an order and came to pick it up, the sides were not what I asked for. The response I received was, "Well, I always repeat back the order so you must have said what we made." She was very rude about it and made me feel like I was at fault. I know what I asked for is not what I got. There was never any sort of apology, just a lot of attitude. We won't be returning if that's what we can expect for customer service.

    One of my FAVORITE places to eat on the west side! The biscuits are delicious and I have yet to be disappointed by my entree of choice (I usually go with the specials). Staff is attentive and friendly!

    Huge variety of delicious food from all over the world. I have several food sensitivities and was easily able to find numerous options. The Coconut Shrimp was the perfect balance of crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, some of the best I have had. Service was friendly and quick, but we never felt rushed. The biscuits served while you wait were heavenly. The seating area seemed just the right size as it was almost full but we didn't have to wait to be seated. Large parties might want to call ahead or visit during less busy times (we went during the lunch hour). We look forward to visiting again soon!

    I've been here a few times and it's a decent lunch spot. Their menu is hodge podge of various Mediterranean & American dishes; everything from burgers & Philly Steak sandwiches to Chicken Parmesan & various pasta dishes, to Gyros, Fattoush salads, Babba Ghanouj & hummus or hummus shawarmas. All meals come with buttermilk biscuits that are slightly sweet and remind me more of cookies than dinner biscuits. I ordered the Greek Gyro with a Fattoush salad & placed a to go order later on for Babba Ghanouj with steak, buttermilk biscuits, and tiramisu. A friend of mine ordered the smoked turkey sandwich on pita with a Fattoush. I like the food, it's always decent and I'll be back, but it's not my favorite. With a large Labanese population in Wichita we're kind of spoiled, there are other Mediterranean restaurants in town that are quite a bit better. N & J's for one, they've set the bar so high that places like this can't compete. Their food is good but it's just okay compared to some of the other places in town. This place is kind of ...bland. I think is how I would describe it. I mean, everything I've ever eaten here was good, don't get me wrong, but I feel like it's always missing that one thing to that would bump it up from being just okay, to being excellent. They may have a dish they prepare excellently, I just haven't tried it yet. I mean, I've never ordered from the "From the Grill" section of their menu, so next time I'll try that. Their hummus & baba ghanouj are okay, but nowhere near as flavorful as NJ's. Their pita bread is thick and fluffy, similar to how store bought pita bread is, but I prefer thinner pita you can pull apart and fold/roll up and dip in your hummus. Their Fattoush is decent & comparable to NJ's, but kind of bare. The one thing I've found so far that I do actually like better than N&J's is the chicken (shawarma) meat mixture they put over their hummus. I like their chicken mixture better, I wish I could put it over N&J's hummus. LOL. Their tiramisu was decent,but still felt like it was missing that one thing. My friend's smoked turkey sandwich looked pretty disappointing to me. She said it was okay, but it looked like the turkey pita you get from Spangles, soooo I'm glad I didn't order it. And I won't be ordering that in the future. I've always gotten Fattoush as my side, but they also offer potato wedges which I'll try next time. (Or you can add a cup of soup for $3 more,meh) Their menu is somewhat diverse which is nice if you're dining with people who aren't adventurous eaters. Small, cozy dining room area. Always clean. Very attentive, helpful, and nice employees. Desserts in the cooler including: carrot cake, cheesecakes, Tiger Cake, & Tiramisu looked beautiful.

    A family favorite for years. I've been coming to this place for over a decade with my mom. The service is always great, and the food is some of the best in town. The prices aren't bad either. they always get the food out fast and the servers are always really friendly. The atmosphere is quiet, this is a good place to have lunch. The only thing I don't like is how it smells like pine sol sometimes, but at least you know it's clean lol. An essential oil smell would be better. I recommend the pasta diablo, fattoush salad, crab cakes, and the chicken salad Mediterranean wrap. Tried the chocolate mousse cake today it was perfect 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼

    Stopped in for the first time. I had the gyro, and my boyfriend had the manicotti. Both were very delicious. Our waitress was very pleasant and attentive as well. Will definitely be returning!

    The restaurant was clean and the music was contemporary, and nice for dining. My waitress was alittle loud, very quick moving and boisterous. Someone you might expect in a fast food environment. My first experience here,...I decided to order "Baba Ghanoush". I've been eating and preparing Baba Ghanoush since I was a child,..in my mother's, aunts and uncles Lebanese kitchens. It's our culture. I'm not sure what they brought me,...I couldn't pin down the ingredients or taste. But it wasn't good,...and it certainly wasn't Baba Ghanoush. It was a dismal failure.

    We where the first ones to arrive at 11am and was promptly greeted and seated, followed by our waters. The fresh bread wasn't ready yet, but we went ahead and ordered our lunches. The Fattoush salad is worth the visit alone but the menu has many dishes I want to come back and try after tasting the delicious pita. We did get our bread and at first I thought it looked a bit over done and was worried it would be dry inside. The outside had a nice crispiness to it and the inside was soft and warm with a sweet hint to it. Overall a very pleasant experience with very tasty food.

    One of the BEST Mediterranean cafe's in Wichita! Always pretty busy around lunch time but also always worth the wait!! Their wait staff is always polite and on top of things. Definitely one of our faves!!

    If you're looking for something savory, this is it. The waitress was very attentive. Love the food and cozy atmosphere. The spicy ravioli was delicious. The broccoli quiche was so light and fluffy I thought I was eating a souffle.

    I have been here many times and I have always been pleased. The food is very good and cooked to perfection. The hummus is great. I have had many different options and they have all been wonderful.

  • 4/5 Alex L. 5 months ago on Google
    Nice little hideaway jem. Food was tasty. I had the lamb shank, which was very tender, in a tangy vegetable red sauce. The place is small but cozy.

  • 5/5 Craig B. 11 months ago on Google
    Always a good place to enjoy a fatush salad. We had a beautiful blonde waitress that had an awesome personality and was fun to chat with. You could tell she had worked all day but was still on top of everything. Never asked for a refill it was there. Great food and great service. Thanks

    Staff was very friendly and helpful. The food here is delicious, always had been for many years. Usually quiet and a relaxing place for a wonderful dinner.

    Went in for a "brunch" date just before the lunch rush hit. My gyro came out phenomenal, but my date was distressed about how drenched in sauce her salmon was. She is super finicky about sauce, so do not let that sway you from trying this place out. 8.5 out of 10, haven't had a good gyro like that since I was on the east coast.

    My Sister Debi and I used to eat here a lot when she was still alive. Every time we ate at Le Monde Cafe & Deli the food was awesome and the service was good. We also enjoyed the atmosphere. I would strongly recommend eating at Le Monde Cafe & Deli. Keep up the good work. May God bless you always!

    Had some good past there the other day, but had a gyro recently and was pretty disappointed how small it was considering what I paid for it and a side. Overall pretty good food but just a little expensive.

  • 5/5 Suanne R. 1 year ago on Google
    I absolutely love this place! It's very small and comfortable with a soothing atmosphere. The fattoush salad and little buttermilk biscuits are my favorites but the lasagna is great too. Not a place for small children or anyone looking to be rowdy.

  • 5/5 Elizabeth K. 1 year ago on Google
    LOVE LOVE this cute little Cafe!! I haven't had many of their dishes to be honest because I am OBSESSED with their Hummus & Steak with Pita!! I eat it as a meal, actually 2! I always have leftovers it is so plentiful!! My family dines here often and they have had several of the pasta dishes, chicken, steak, gyro and the fatoush, etc EVERYTHING IS DELISH! Child friendly (Thank you for being so sweet to our girls, Maryellen). You will not be disappointed!!

  • 4/5 Laurie O. 1 year ago on Google
    First time eating at LM, dinner. The gyros were good but the sauce wasn’t “cucumber” enough. We’re used to lots of lamb, tomatoes, cucumbers, onions, and lots of creamy cucumber sauce. The Wisconsin way👍. The tiramisu was very good. $40 before tip. Cute little deli place for Greek and Italian foodies. Wish I took a pic of the tiramisu but gobbled it up too fast 😂.

  • 5/5 Kay F. 5 years ago on Google
    Fabulous, we had such a fun time with each other and the waitress. She helped us choose the perfect items on the menu as we described our preferences. The food was amazing. The bisquits were like dessert. We had no room for desserts on the menu, so may have to come back for that. I had the lamb shank and my husband had the beef mignon(?) With a double order of potato wedges in place of the vegetable and mashed potato. It was on special and he enjoyed every bite.

  • 2/5 Crystal G. 1 year ago on Google
    The lettuce in my salad was wilted and warm. I was looking forward to eating it as it was one of my favorites, but who wants warm wilted lettuce??? The waitress have me lame excuses instead of getting me fresh cold salad. Guess return business isn't important to them.
