    I forget just how great this place is. Everything is so fresh and superior quality to any other Mediterranean restaurant in the city. This is definitely their best location. Wendy is a sweetheart! Such great atmosphere, food and service!

    Mona's has always been one of my favorite Mediterranean restaurants. Went there for a late lunch with my mom after an appointment. I got the chicken shawarma plate that comes with salad, hummus and pita bread. The hummus comes with some chopped peppers that add some spice. The food came out pretty quickly and we both enjoyed our lunch. We also made a trip into the connected little market to get some spices.
