Mediterranean Sandwich Review – Fresh, Flavorful, and Seriously Satisfying

I’m a sucker for fresh, vibrant flavors, so when I spotted the Mediterranean Sandwich on the menu, I knew it had my name on it. From the very first bite, it felt like I was taking a quick trip to a sunny seaside café.

It starts with tender grilled chicken that’s been marinated in Mediterranean herbs like oregano, thyme, and a touch of garlic. The chicken has that perfect balance of savory and aromatic — not too strong, just enough to make you want another bite. Then comes the creamy hummus, which adds a rich, nutty base and ties all the flavors together.

Fresh cucumber slices bring a cool crunch, the tomatoes add juicy sweetness, and crisp Romaine lettuce gives it that extra bite. My favorite surprise? The roasted red peppers — slightly smoky, slightly sweet — that make the sandwich pop. Of course, it wouldn’t be Mediterranean without salty feta cheese and briny Kalamata olives. Every bite has a mix of creamy, crunchy, tangy, and fresh.

The whole thing is served on warm toasted pita or whole-grain flatbread, which is soft but sturdy enough to hold everything without falling apart. At 730 calories and priced around $9.39, it feels like a filling but not heavy meal.

Topping upgrades I recommend:

  • Extra feta if you love cheese — it boosts the tangy, creamy flavor.
  • A few avocado slices for extra creaminess.
  • Tzatziki sauce if you like a cool, yogurt-based tang.
  • Sun-dried tomatoes for a sweet-savory kick.
  • A pinch of chili flakes or harissa if you’re into a bit of heat.

Allergen notes: Contains dairy (feta, possibly tzatziki), gluten (pita/flatbread), and sesame (in the hummus).

Overall, the Mediterranean Sandwich is a winner if you want something that’s fresh, flavorful, and a little different from the usual deli fare. It’s got that balance of healthy ingredients and indulgent touches that makes it perfect for lunch or dinner — or even a treat-yourself snack.
