Mediterranean

North African, Middle Eastern, and Meditteranean restaurant from Adel Rakrouki, executive chef and owner of Mezza.

UMU focuses on Mediterranean cuisine. The restaurant is carefully built by a professional culinary team. All ingredients are strictly fresh from the source to ensure that the food is fresh and safe. The restaurant has an elegant and unique decoration style and a natural and comfortable small courtyard environment, combined with the fashionable music concept of their brand.

Chez Suzy, literally Suzy’s home, feels like a European bistro: antique chandeliers, oil paintings, heavy wooden tables, and cherry-red leather booths fill the space and additional of mosaics, an open kitchen, wine bottles galore, and a large al fresco seating area fill the gaps.

Sorì Tapas & Wine gets its namesake from the Northern Italian region of Piedmonte, which is home to some of the best vineyards in the world on account of its high altitude, lush sunshine, and award-winning Nebbiolo grapes. Likewise, Sorì brings some of those luxuries to Sanlitun with tapas (RMB 38-138), staples (approximately RMB 88 each), homemade gelato, and a selection of Mediterranean wines.

Opened on the third birthday of sister restaurant Tiago, and the fifth restaurant in their canon, Combal has a Mediterranean focus with the same upper-mid-range dining atmosphere.

Excellent Mediterranean fare like paella (RMB 189 for a small plateful or RMB  369 for a large) and seafood pan-fried Icelandic baby squids (RMB 109), not to mention richly tempting desserts like jasmine chocolate and coconut yogurt mousses (RMB 69) are all on offer at this chicly decorated restaurant opened by the team that brought you by the Saffron team.

A flashy but laidback fine dining experience overlooking Taikoo Li that exalts a "homestyle" approach and Mediterranean-style sharing dishes.

Perhaps not surprisingly from the people who brought us Sanlitun's most Instagrammed terrace (RIP), we're loving everything about the terrace at Migas Mercado, from the striking yellow and purple color scheme to the panoramic CBD views. 

Sitting on the first floor of the Shangri-la Hotel by the West Third Ring Road in Haidian District, Azur (previously S.T.A.Y,) is led by Michelin-starred chef Italo-Argentinian Mauro Colagreco, who is known by foodies for establishing two-Michelin-starred restaurant Mirazur in Menton, France. The menu offers Mediterranean dishes using fresh seasonal ingrediants.

The Tiago team open Casa Talia, which unlike its sister restaurant, focuses on creative Mediterranean cuisine and cocktails, under the keen supervision of Michelin star Chef Corrado Michelazzo. However, the Tiago team's pride for using the best the ingredients from around the world remains, creating dishes from Gillardeau oysters, Cinco Jotas ham from Spain, Boston lobsters from Canada, Australian Angus grain-fed beef, and codfish from Iceland.
