Best Mediterranean Restaurants in Altamonte Springs

Our experience was incredible and our server was the absolute best. The food was absolutely delicious, we already booked our next visit to bring more family with us next time!

We’ve been to Greece many times, admiring the cuisine, culture, architecture, and the Cycladic design we love so much. Parea does a great job of capturing the warm, family feeling while incorporating various familiar elements of Greek decor and theming. We ordered cocktails that we enjoyed (Garden, Karpouzi, Not Today Hades, and the Greek Sangria), along with the tzatziki and tirokafteri dips with warm pita bread. The tirokafteri, a spicy feta dip, was the big hit for everyone at the table. They didn’t have the skordalia dip this time (a delicious garlic dip made with small bits of potatoes), but might bring it back in the future. For salad we had the classic Horiatiki (traditional Greek village salad), and the calamari. Both were delicious. The horiatiki was done so well and had a perfect vinaigrette on it. I hope this doesn’t change at all, because it was quite literally what we know and love about Greece! <3 For our main course, we ordered the Chicken Souvlaki, the Lamb Shank, the Cast Iron Moussaka, and the Chicken Tata. Everything was really great, and generous portions. The Chicken Tata was similar to a chicken schnitzel and had a side of pasta. We ended our meal with Mastiha (a sweet digestif that’s much better tasting than Ouzo; you must try it if you haven’t), and the Portokalopita (an orange cake) that were both great. There are still so many menu items we want to try like Phyllis’ Potatoes, Pastitsio, Greek Tea, Saganaki, Spanakopita, Beefteki, Tiropitakia, and more. It’s so exciting to see authentic Greek brands like Alpha, Mythos (the beers of Greece), Skinos and more. The beauty and hospitality of Greece has arrived to Maitland, and we’re so happy! We’ll be back very soon. I can’t wait to see lunch options in the near future. I’m hoping for fries inside gyros, galaktobouriko, and maybe some Cretan options.

Love all of the gluten-free and farm-to-table options! Thank you!

Exceptional!!! We started with hummus and zucchini appetizers. My husband had the red snapper and I had the branzino. Unlike anywhere in the world. Yes $70 or more for each dish but well worth it. Very delicious!! A very memorable meal. We had outstanding service. I highly recommend for foodies !!!

Great restaurant great service great food. Will definitely love to visit again
