Reviews for The Garden Mediterranean Restaurant & Cafe in Santa Maria, CA

My go-to spot for fresh, high-quality Mediterranean food! I've celebrated my birthday here, had client lunches, and ordered take... out many times. Besides the amazing food, and friendly staff. I love the ambiance in the outdoor seating area. It feels likeyou're on vacation, not in Santa María. The green garden, water fixtures and shade are amazing. Definitely a little slice ofparadise. Will definitely return! Read more

The food was great and we were able to add and edit our plates to be more fitted to what we wanted. Some very minor issues with... table stability, but that's a common thing at any high traffic places. Service was decent, it did take a little longer to beseated than expected with the number of people dining. But overall a good place for some really good food Read more

Authentic tasting Mediterranean food. Service is a little slow but they looked short staffed. Liked to outdoor seating. Would... return Read more

Lovely lunch today at The Garden. Limited selection of craft cocktails but we had no trouble finding ones we liked. We also... enjoyed a nice bottle of Syrah. Beef kebob, lamb shank and sea bass were all fantastic and service was fine. Can't wait toreturn! Read more
