The Ethnico Mediterranean Cuisine

I had the most wonderful experience at Ethnico Mediterranean in Lambertville, NJ. From the moment we walked in, the owner and his wife welcomed us with such warmth, making us feel like part of their family. The service was incredibly fast, and every bite was a delight—from the simple gyro wraps to full grilled Bronzino and lamb kebabs in a delicious Mediterranean sauce. The decor could definitely use some updating, but give them time as this is a new restaurant also noticed during our dinner there was a lot of takeout and it’s BYOB great value for the dollar. We can’t wait to go back

Nestled right off of Bridge Stree, The Ethnico Mediterranean Cuisine is a hidden gem that delivers a true taste of Turkey and the Mediterranean in a warm, welcoming setting. Sharing a cozy building with Meta Café, this restaurant instantly gives off a friendly neighborhood vibe with its inviting outdoor tables and simple, charming decor. From the moment you walk in, the aroma of grilled spices and fresh-baked bread sets the tone for an authentic experience. The staff is attentive and genuinely kind, adding to the homey atmosphere. We started with the mezze platter, which was beautifully presented and full of color and texture. Each dip had its own character — the smoky baba ghanoush, the creamy hummus, and the perfectly tangy tzatziki. The falafel was crisp on the outside and tender on t

The staff are very friendly and it’s nice the restaurant is in a quiet corner of Lambertville. The barbecued meat, hummus, and salad were solid, but we are very particular about rice and it was for sure microwaved from the day before. It was also empty when we were there which made the atmosphere seem a little drab.

This restaurant is a hidden gem in Lambertville - a family run business where every dish is prepared to suit the palette of the diner. We tasted a few appetizers and a few entrees, family style, and each and every dish was perfectly made and presented. The Ali Nazik (lamb meatballs over eggplant spread) was ku favorite. The lamb was perfectly cooked and went well with the eggplant chutney and salad. The girls liked the Borek flatbread the best. We ended the evening with a pistachio roll and baclava which were just perfect. We can’t wait to come back. Oh yes, don’t forget to take your favorite bottle of wine!

So happy to have found this amazing Turkish/Mediterranean restaurant in Lambertville! The food is incredibly fresh, seasoned well & authentic. Korhan, the owner, is kind and welcoming and we will be back very soon!
