Chili's Grill & Bar: One of our favorite American chain restaurants serving Mediterranean food is Chili’s Grill & Bar. Yes, it’s not one of those traditional Mediterranean restaurants, but we love their classic American and Tex-Mex fare served in southwestern style. Review By Christine Lal: I love the service here! The robot Rita was a nice touch! The drinks were perfectly made, and the food came out Hot, Hot, Hot! We came during lunch on a Saturday, and there was plenty of space, and we were seated immediately. Please do try the Margarita!! 2. Mercato Della Pescheria Las Vegas: While the San Francisco Mediterranean restaurants are mostly well known for their chic dining rooms, Mercato Della Pescheria Las Vegas is no less. A stylish, chic dining room where guests can enjoy Italian plates, seafood, cocktails, select wines, and beer - sounds like a gastronomic dream! Review By Volker Kueffel: Located on the "St. Mark's Square" inside the Venetian, this is a great lunch option. Not too expensive, has tasty food and very friendly service. I went for a light lunch this time and had a Cesar's Salad and Tomato Mozzarella. Both are pretty good, you also get bread with olive oil and balsamic vinegar which is always a great start. 3. Hedary's Mediterranean Restaurant Las Vegas: One of our favorite Mediterranean restaurants in Vegas, Hedary's Mediterranean Restaurant Las Vegas, serves several vegetarian dishes, delicious roasted lamb, and mouthwatering kebabs. We loved their simple, functional atmosphere! Review By Abdul M. Massoud: Well, I’m a Chef. I teach Mediterranean cooking classes at The University of Utah. This is the best lamb chop and baba ghanoush I have had since I moved to the states 7 years back! It’s really delicious, authentic, a genuine family restaurant that is hard to find these days. Thank you I’ll be back every time I visit Vegas. you got me! 4. Khoury's Mediterranean Restaurant: You don’t have to waste your time by searching ‘restaurants Mediterranean’ on Google.

Our favorite item is the homemade pita bread, but the hummus is delicious too. It has a local neighborhood family atmosphere, and prices are reasonable. Please support our local restaurants. We always go there for dinner. Casual atmosphere and good service. 5. Maza Mediterranean & Turkish Halal Grill: If you are a fan of traditional Turkish food and charcoal-grilled kebabs, then you have to check out Maza Mediterranean & Turkish Halal Grill. Another one of our favorite Mediterranean restaurants, we love that the restaurant is family-owned and has such a fun, casual vibe. Review By Muntazar Alsaegh: The place is very nice, and the staff was very friendly and welcoming. The appetizers were fine but not the best. The Quzi was great, the rice was cooked well, and the meat was very tender and full of flavor. I am not from Las Vegas, so I don’t know if these are their normal prices, but I find their prices to be a bit above average. 6. Paymon's Fresh Kitchen And Lounge - Sahara: Do you love restaurants that come with plenty of vegetarian and non-vegetarian choices? Then Paymon's Fresh Kitchen and Lounge - Sahara is perfect for you - they have a crazy range of Mediterranean options on the menu, including plenty of vegetarian dishes. Plus, you can enjoy some hookah here as well. Review By Kristin Edwards: The food at Paymon’a was fresh and delicious! The presentation was nice, and the atmosphere of the whole place was very welcoming. The best thing, though, was the service we received. Our server was a very nice young guy whose name sadly escaped me. I will definitely go back for more! 7. Parsley Modern Mediterranean: Parsley Modern Mediterranean is a counter-serve eatery that serves really tasty falafel, kabobs, shawarma, other Mediterranean staples, and some great vegetarian options. We loved their food and had so much fun eating locally. Review By Trigga Dro: Came Here to Grab A Shawarma Wrap, but Ended Up Getting the Basmati Bowl With Steak and Chicken. Got The Works. My Wife Got The Same, but She Got The Chicken Kabob as Her Protein instead. I Would say of Gave given It 5 Stars if it wasn't for a Mandatory 15 Min Wait for 1 Kabob of Chicken. Other than that, It Was The Best Meal That Day. Definitely Coming Back ??? 8. Amena Mediterranean Café And Bakery: Are you a fan of the Mediterranean food Pasadena? Then you must check out Amena Mediterranean café And Bakery. They serve tasty homemade hummus, pitas, and other Middle-Eastern favorites in an easygoing, colorful environment. Review By Agnes Williams: I accidentally ran into this place, and my husband had never had a Mediterranean dish before. We both love the service, and the food is tasty. I would definitely come back to this place. I also bought a bag of dry chickpeas so I can make the falafel at home. Best I've ever done because it tasted soooo good. 9. The Great Greek Mediterranean Grill: Another one of our favorite Mediterranean restaurants in Las Vegas, you have to check out The Great Greek Mediterranean Grill.

For those who want to get away from city life, Scarborough's top attractions provide an amazing holiday experience. One of the most well-known coastal resort towns in England, it embodies the traditional historical charm. It is dotted with arcades, fish and chips, and waterfront parks. The essence of Scarborough is some of the nation's nicest beaches at the base of sheer cliffs. This seaside town in Yorkshire has the atmosphere of being stuck in the Victorian era. Perched atop the cliffs, the Grand Hotel commands attention from all directions. The Scarborough Spa continues to draw national visitors. The town's architecture is characterized by a lot of flamboyant buildings with a hospitable old-world charm. In this article, we will enumerate all the things to do in Scarborough you cannot miss. Things To Do In Scarborough Even with its historical vibe, Scarborough is still a lively and welcoming spot to spend a summer in England. South Bay Beach Scarborough's South Bay Beach is well-known for its soft sand, amusement arcades, donkey rides, and the Grand Hotel perched atop cliffs. Like a vacationer from the Victorian era, you can still take the historic cliff lifts from the hotel down to the beach. Though the North Sea is far less inviting, South Beach can be just as busy and enjoyable on a sunny summer's day as any beach in the Mediterranean. While it's usually acceptable to dangle your toes in, very few people go deeper than knee depth. North Bay Beach, located on the opposite side of the headland, has earned a Blue Flag designation for hygiene. Though it has fewer nearby attractions than South Bay Beach, it is usually busier on nice days. Rotunda Museum The exhibit at the Rotunda Museum covers the region's incredibly old history. The collection's highlights include a Bronze Age coffin, Stone Age tools, and dinosaur fossils. These intriguing objects are arranged in an equally intriguing and historic structure. One of the first purpose-built museums in history, the ancient circular structure with its trick-eye ceiling is just as fascinating to look at as the artifacts. The Scarborough Art Gallery, the famous Grand Hotel, the historic Spa Bridge that spans a valley with beautiful parkland, and the Rotunda Museum's distinctive exterior are all nearby. It's a major center of culture. Scarborough Market Hall & Vaults Renovated historically, the Scarborough Market Hall & Vaults houses a contemporary market with a nod to the past. There is local produce available in the main hall. It also has stalls offering handcrafted jewelry, presents, clothing, and artwork, among other items. Under the hall, in The Vaults, are more shops with a focus on antiques and handmade goods. In addition to being a place for shopping, Scarborough's market and hall also double as a cultural hub, hosting a calendar of special events. Additionally, there's a great food court with a view of the hallway. Scarborough Harbor Scarborough's historic harbor has long served as the city's center. It should come as no surprise that the harbor is home to several top-notch seafood restaurants, given that the fishermen still bring in their fresh catches on a daily basis. The classic fish and chips, which can be found at excellent establishments like Winking Willy's, First Catch, and Harbour View Café, is, of course, the dish of choice. As the name implies, Harbour View provides beautiful views of the old lighthouse across the protected moorings. You can help yourself to a traditional portion of English fish and chips wrapped in paper and savor it with a wooden fork. It is an English version of a takeout. A generous amount of vinegar gives the dish a unique tang and softens the crispy batter surrounding the flaky cod or haddock. Scarborough’s Old Town Not only do the winding old streets behind the harbor and South Bay Beach have a lovely, old-world charm, but they also have a fantastic assortment of stores and cafés. A few major high street names, such as Marks and Spencer and New Look, are present, but the bulk of the stores are tiny local businesses that sell some unusual and interesting goods. The selection of confectionery stores in Scarborough is particularly good. Seaside sticks of rock are boiled sugar candies is an English classic. There are plenty of other sweet options for you to choose from Additionally, there are a good number of casinos and amusement arcades. Stephen Joseph Theatre Scarborough boasts an active theater scene with a number of excellent locations scattered throughout the small town. The Stephen Joseph Theatre is one of the greatest. It's conveniently located next to the Scarborough Spa. They feature a combination of contemporary and classic shows, and the performances are excellent, even though it's unlikely that you'll see many well-known actors on stage. You won't have any trouble seeing or hearing the plays because of how small the theater itself is. There are several eateries close to the contemporary location, along with a decent bar and a small art gallery on the premises. When there isn't live action, the theater frequently screens old films and occasionally streams significant international events. Peasholm Park Peasholm Park offers both peaceful reflection and moments of excitement. During the summer (June to August), every Saturday at 3 p.m., model warships battle on the large lake near the beach, with the addition of aircraft and explosions to the action. You can rent a boat and go rowing around the large central island. It has a distinctive Japanese pagoda in the center when the miniature navies aren't in action. To explore the stunning hidden garden located at the other end of the park, stroll among the trees beside Peasholm Beck if you'd rather stay on dry land. Along the route, there are some exotic tree species like Chusan palms and American red oaks. Scarborough Spa Its distinctive history and location are what make this specific live music and events venue intriguing and worthwhile to visit. Constructed during the Victorian era, the spa is situated on the cliffs with a stunning view of South Bay Beach. Despite its historical appearance, it is equipped with contemporary amenities. One of the few seaside orchestras that still performs in the Spa plays lively classical music and classic oom-pah tunes under the sea breeze. It is a tradition they have brought down just like they did in the heyday of the town. It is a very memorable performance because of the setting, which can be either the Grand Hall or the suncourt. Since they only perform in the summer, make sure to schedule your travel and hotel well in advance. Wrapping Up The North Sea laps the picturesque, horseshoe-shaped bay at the heart of Scarborough. It is a seaside town, ruled over by a castle dating back to the 12th century. Over four centuries of sandy beaches, surfing, and hearty Yorkshire fare have made Scarborough a family favorite. If you have thoughts to share or questions to ask about things to do in Scarborough, please leave a comment below. We would love to hear from you!

When you think of the ideal spring destination, what springs to mind? For most, it’s rolling tree-lined vistas exploding with cherry blossoms; temperate weather that’s neither too hot nor too cold; a lively atmosphere, reinvigorated after a long winter; moments of serenity before the onslaught of summer tourists, etc. It can be challenging to find all of those platonic ideals in one place, especially if you stick to the beaten path. However, if you wander away from the major tourist cities (your Parises, Tokyos, and New York, e.g.), you can find compelling cities that come to life in spring. As a bonus, these underrated cities are often less expensive than their famous counterparts–and cheaper in the shoulder season of spring. ČeskýKrumlov, Czechia Prague is beautiful, no doubt. Unfortunately, it’s the first and last place tourists often visit in Czechia (formerly the Czech Republic). If you’re willing to take a two-hour train from Prague (roughly $20), you can land yourself in ČeskýKrumlov, a UNESCO-recognized Gothic city in the heart of South Bohemia. This is literally where the term Bohemian originated. The city brims with artistic energy, pristinely aged architecture, as well as nightlife. And in spring, the trees along the Vltava River bloomin magnificent abundance. Plus, if you’re a beer connoisseur, you’ll find some of the oldest European breweries at your doorstep. Vancouver, Canada Seattle and Portland dominate the narrative around the Pacific Northwest. But if you cross the 49th parallel into Canada, you’ll find arguably the crowning jewel of the PNW: Vancouver. Vancouver is a city of extremes. On the one end, it’s a cosmopolitan metro on the move, complete with bumping bars, swanky restaurants, and posh shopping districts. On the other end, Vancouver is humbled by its natural surroundings – cornered by a long Pacific coastline and towering snow-capped mountains. Outdoor activities are plentiful in Vancouver; the city features an embarrassment of day hikes, suspension bridges, beaches, as well as ski trips. Vancouver’s spring weather is notoriously unpredictable, so just be sure to pack travel clothes from Unbound Merino, which are versatile enough to withstand hot, cold, dry, and rainy weather. Kanazawa, Japan Kanazawa is everything you love about Tokyo or Kyoto, scaled down to a streamlined 400,000-person package. It has the spring rows of cherry blossoms. It boasts old Shinto shrines and Buddhist temples. There are world-class dining experiences as well as futuristic amenities. Best of all, Kanazawa is home to perfectly preserved Edo-era districts. It makes you feel like you boarded a time machine to get there. It’s no wonder Culture Trip named it one of the most underrated cities in Japan. Phoenix, USA Phoenix is underrated any time of year. The city’s desert aesthetic, top-notch Southwest food and packed calendar of events and festivals make it a true standout among American cities. But perhaps the perfect time to visit is spring. Phoenix’s spring temperature is still manageable – not the sweltering highs it experiences in August. Prices are reasonable across the accommodation landscape. And best of all, Arizona is host to MLB’s spring training – which means cheap baseball tickets. This spring, don’t listen to the hype. Check out these four underrated spring cities for a refreshing dose of blossoms, great food, nightlife, as well as activities.
