For heartier portions, you can also Build Your Own meals. This means choosing a salad, protein and two sides.

Why is mediterranean food so healthy?

Healthy eating is healthy living, and that’s what Mediterranean food is all about. Our recipes originate from our family’s Northern Greek village and have been perfected over generations, using only the freshest ingredients. Here’s how we do it…

  • Mediterranean food uses lots of fresh produce, from traditional Greek salads to our signature steamed veggies

  • We use plenty of heart-healthy extra virgin olive oil

  • Fresh chicken and lean beef or lamb can be added to most dishes as a healthy serving of protein.

  • Many of our dishes are naturally low in sodium

  • We never, ever deep fry our food

Which ingredients should i look for if my group wants to eat healthy?

We offer a variety of healthy options and can accommodate for dietary restrictions and allergies. Here’s what to look for if you’re ordering for a health-conscious group:

  • Fish, which is a staple of Mediterranean and Greek diets, contains heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids.

  • Olive oil and olives, are our cooking staples. They contain healthy monounsaturated fats, which may reduce the risks of heart attack, stroke, and inflammation. They can also help fight cancer and increase overall brain health.

  • Hummus, a Mediterranean favorite, contains heart-healthy fats from olive oil and tahini, and is a good source of protein and fiber.

  • Garlic, also at the heart of our cooking, boosts the immune system and helps prevent heart disease.

  • Feta, a core of Mediterranean diets, is high in protein, phosphorus, and calcium.
