How long Mediterranean / Greek restaurants last

Measured only on restaurants that opened long enough ago to have reached 4 years, so recent openings cannot flatter it. A rate is published only where at least 40 have.

Where Mediterranean / Greek clusters

By community area, most open today first. Counts only — a four-year survival rate needs 40 matured restaurants and only ≈16% of these cells have that many, so the rate lives below, where it can be quoted honestly.

By zip code

The same cut for anyone working from an address rather than a neighbourhood name.

This page is the whole city. Pick the area you actually care about and we will email you when a new restaurant licence appears there, and stay quiet when none does. It covers openings only: a closure takes about three years to surface fully in the public record, and we will not send an alert we cannot stand behind.

This page is the record: what has been tried, where, and how long it lasted. A read scores a specific concept for a specific operator against it — including whether Mediterranean / Greek is the strongest thing you could put in that space. Free right now, no card.
