Absolutely love Nil’s Mediterranean! From the moment you walk in, you can feel the care and authenticity that goes into everything they do. The food is consistently fresh, bold, and full of flavor, you can truly taste the love in every bite.
Chef Tan, along with Liz, Shailey, and the entire team, make you feel like family. Every time my family and I come in, we’re greeted with genuine warmth and treated like regulars, no matter how busy they are. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, the portions are generous, and the service is always top-notch.
If you’re anywhere near Fuquay-Varina, this is a must-stop. It’s not just the best Mediterranean spot in the area—it’s honestly one of the best restaurants around, period. You can’t go wrong with a single item on the menu.
And don’t sleep on brunch. The French toast, eggs, breakfast burrito. weekly specials, every single dish hits. The whole dang menu is amazing. A true local gem that keeps us coming back again and again.

Oh my gosh, the food here! Every dish we ordered was a piece of heaven! Did we just drive 2 1/2 hours to enjoy this place? Not yet. We just stumbled upon it. But WE WILL! Trust me!

We had the chicken platter, short rib tacos, and trio of appetizers with hummus, falafel, and tzatziki. All were exceptional in terms of quality, flavor, and value.
The service is order at the counter, seat yourself anywhere, and they bring it out to you.

We were craving something fresh, flavorful, and filling—and this spot completely delivered.
We started with the pita pocket lamb & beef burger, and let me tell you—it was incredible. The meat was juicy, well-seasoned, and cooked to perfection. The soft pita held everything together beautifully, and every bite was packed with flavor. It had that perfect balance of smoky, savory, and slightly tangy from the sauce. One of the best Mediterranean-style burgers I’ve ever had.
We also ordered the chicken platter, and it was just as impressive. The grilled chicken was tender and bursting with flavor, and the portion size was very generous. What really stood out were the sides—they didn’t hold back! From the fluffy rice and fresh salad to the hummus and warm pita, every element was thoughtfully prepared. The whole dish was hearty and satisfying without being heavy.
The service was quick and friendly, and the atmosphere inside was casual and welcoming. It’s the kind of place where you feel like you’re getting a home-cooked meal but with restaurant-level execution.
Honestly, I wasn’t expecting it to be this good, but everything blew me away. Whether you’re grabbing a quick lunch or sitting down for dinner with family, this place is a hidden gem.
Would definitely visit again—and next time, I’m bringing more people with me to try even more from their menu!

WONDERFUL BAKLAVA. HAVE 1 TO STAY OR 4 TO GO. Had the Medi Bowl with Beef and the fries with chicken. The mediterranean spices on the chicken were delicious. The server apologized for the fries taking slightly longer than the Mediterranean bowl, but it wasn’t long at all. There’s interior and outside seating. The inside is nice, but this restaurant is no secret, so it got relatively busy and a bit noisy while we were waiting. No issue, we sat outside and enjoyed our meal. The Medi Bowl is a large portion of food.

Let me tell you something about Nils. This is hands down the BEST Mediterranean restaurant I have ever been to. Excellent quality ingredients and everything is homemade. Food is hot and fresh. Everything was so so delicious. This immediately turned into our new go-to in town. Very impressed with Nils and am happy to see they are opening a second location in Angier.

We went to Fuquay Varina today and a local recommended Nil’s. We ordered the fried Brussel sprouts and a platter of Mediterranean foods. The location is great in downtown Fuquay near the Aviator restaurant. The food was ok, the staff were friendly and the interior was pretty dim lighting. The best part were the fried Brussel sprouts.
Would we return to Nil’s? Probably, but only if we’re in the area.

Walked in around 2 pm on a Sunday afternoon for lunch after tough luck finding vegetarian options at the food truck rodeo down the street. We were blown away by the significant vegetarian options and more so by how delicious and refreshing the food was.
The service was quick and comfortable to interact with.
We truly enjoyed our meal and will definitely be back.
