Roti: A Fresh, Flavorful Mediterranean Gem Near the Lake If you’re looking for vibrant Mediterranean flavors in a casual, clean, and family-friendly setting, Roti is a spot that delivers—and then some. Recommended by a friend, I decided to bring my family along for our first visit, and it certainly won’t be our last. Located within walking distance of the lake—just about 20 minutes with a stroller—Roti strikes a perfect balance between convenience and quality. From the moment we stepped inside, we were welcomed by a warm and accommodating staff who made sure we were comfortable and well taken care of throughout our visit. The menu offers a wide array of customizable options, making it easy for both first-timers and regulars to find something that hits the spot. I went with the chicken bowl, while the rest of my family opted for the falafel salad—and every bite was a hit. The food was wholesome, well-seasoned, and deeply satisfying—the kind of meal that leaves you feeling nourished without being weighed down. What stood out just as much as the food was the cleanliness and attention to detail throughout the restaurant. The space was tidy, well-organized, and welcoming—a refreshing contrast to many fast-casual spots in the city. In short, Roti is a must-visit for Mediterranean food lovers looking for fresh ingredients, bold flavors, and a dining experience that’s both fast and fulfilling. Whether you’re grabbing a quick bite before a lakefront stroll or sitting down for a relaxed family meal, Roti hits all the right notes. Highly recommended.

“I was actually headed to dine at a different restaurant when I spotted Roti Mediterranean.”

I was actually headed to dine at a different restaurant when I spotted Roti Mediterranean. A quick Google search of the menu made me change my mind on where I was originally headed. Once inside, I saw the restaurant was very clean and the atmosphere was bright and friendly. The service was great! I totally enjoyed the Skirt Steak & Brussels Bowl. The dish consisted of Sumac Skirt Steak, Saffron Rice, Lemony Brussels Sprouts, Grape Tomatoes, Olives, Garlic Sauce, and Roti Spice. For an additional $1.00 I was allowed to purchase 2 Falafels, which were the best I've tasted in quite a while.

I had the build your own greens and grains with kale/saffron rice with everything add salmon feta pita chips and hummus… even though I didn’t get my hummus or extra feta my bowl was so delicious so much better than chipotle to me. My peach tea was really good it all warmed my heart and had me on cloud 9…it reminded me of Al Bawadi grill… you have to try it for yourself I can old provide a pic of my receipt this time

I went in 1 hr before closing and the staff was truly amazing!!! Sometimes when you go into places that’s about to close they are tired and ready to go! NOT THIS PLACE KeKe was so great, polite, and kind to me. She educated me in the food ( I’m from MN) it was my first time in. I mean every staff there tonight was pleasant and gave me an amazing experience. My food is delicious and my falafel were fresh. I would be back and recommend to anyone in the area!

My go to for healthy, colorful and tasty on the South Eastside ...I didn't even know I liked beets or lentils until I ate it from here. I make my own bowl and get a lil bit of everything. Half and half on the saffron rice and cauliflower rice, half and half on the chicken and spicy steak, go crazy with the veggies extra beets though, lemon kale on the side let me get all that goodness, sprinkle chickpeas and sunflower seeds, garlic and red pepper sauce add me a warm pita and a hibiscus 🌺 tea . I could eat this at least 2wice a week. My blood pressure always appreciates this meal 🖤

Superb customer service, the manager takes time, care, and consideration in making sure that staff provide a pleasant healthy dining experience. Ordering healthy well prepared food like cauliflower rice, lamb balls or salmon kabobs offer a delicate and aromatic feast of the Mediterranean the chicken is delicious as well.. The menu is vast as you can combine your preferences any way you like. I could eat here daily. Stop in order a healthy lunch enjoy the dine-in, takeout or patio experience. Dont forget the cooling lemonades and a cookie to top off your Roti experience

I have been a fan of Roti since my first experience, I was going to grab some food from the restaurant next door but the line was ridiculous so my son and I opted for Roti and we've been coming back ever since. I usually get the rice plate or salad with chicken but I love the steak and salmon too. I top it with dill sauce, cucumbers and tomatoes, couscous, vegtables and pickled onions. It also comes with pita bread. This is a dine in/ carryout spot but delivery service is also available via uber eats. I usually spend $25-$35 for two entrées and drinks. If you're a fan of Mediterranean style food, give it a try.
