Beloved downtown lunch-only Mediterranean deli serving fresh, made-to-order gyros, salads, and plates with generous portions and warm, family-run hospitality.
Trieste Cafe exemplifies grade A standards through exceptional food quality with vegetables chopped to order and outstanding service attentiveness from owner-operators who treat regulars like family. Reliable consistency over three decades, combined with generous portions and downtown value, establishes this as a must-try destination for Mediterranean lunch. The tight quarters and modest decor prevent higher distinction, but the warmth and care elevate it well above typical casual dining.
One caveat: Limited seating; expect a line at peak times but it moves quickly
