Best Mediterranean Restaurants in Hoffman Estates

We visited Ema's for my wife’s birthday as a surprise—she had no idea where we were going! My son joined us for the celebration, and from the moment we pulled up, my wife was thrilled to try this new spot. Upon entering, we were immediately welcomed and seated. Our waitress was exceptional, offering thoughtful recommendations from the menu. When the dishes arrived, they were beautifully presented, and the moment we took our first bite, we were blown away by the incredible flavors. The food was truly outstanding. I highly recommend Ema’s to anyone craving delicious Mediterranean cuisine—it's definitely worth a visit!

Excellent Christmas meal at Vasilis! We tried multiple different dishes, and they were all great, including our desserts. We had really wonderful service from Siba, which added to an already enjoyable evening.

This was my 5th visit to Turquoise, and it measured up with all my previous visits, and it was also enjoyed by my two friends who had never been there before. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was pleasant, not noisy, and the temperature of the room was perfect. The service was really excellent, we did not wait for anything, and I changed my one order and they were very kind in doing that. My one observation was the attentiveness of the servers was too quick at times with, for instance, my coffee was removed before I was finished. The baklava is excellent. I highly recommend Turquoise Cafe.

Beautiful evening, great food, impeccable service, lovely atmosphere! A bit loud; expected on Christmas eve. We all left full, happy, and satiated. Thank you!

Good food and friendly servers. Nice live band also
