Restaurant: Desert Rose Mediterranean Cuisine & Specialty Market Address: 305 West State St., Media, PA 19063 Rating: (out of 5 stars): ★★★★ Style: BYOB; Sit-down or take-out for lunch and dinner (outdoor seating coming this summer) Food: Traditional Mediterranean cuisine Atmosphere: Casual, clean, and bright Parking: Street parking Service: Friendly, fast, and casual Price Range: Affordable Unique Feature: Traditional Mediterranean “street food” is unique to the State Street restaurant scene.

Desert Rose, the new Mediterranean and specialty market on State Street, is now open for business.
Desert Rose, at 305 W. State Street in Media, is now open for business. The new Mediterranean and specialty market right off the corner of State and Orange streets opened its doors Thursday. Sandwiches, hummus, salads and soups are on the menu. Along with the detailed menu explaining the delicious options there is an explaination of the foods, for the less Mediterranean-inspired customer.

(See the attached photos and PDF files for menu and "what am I eating" details.)
