“ Really enjoyed it! Very friendly service by the two individuals who were working there (one worked for a very long time at a gyro place around the corner and it was great seeing him again). Had the chicken tikka and lentil soup, and both were very good. Definitely will return! ”
“ I love this place. Often when you walk in, you'll be greeted warmly by the proprietor, a kindly and talkative man. The interior is sparse but there's interesting artwork for sale on the walls and a fun photo-op wall. I usually get the Chicken Tikka Korma with seasoned rice. The chicken is always so tender, delightfully seasoned, and comes with delicious potato wedges and some veggies. Then I get a side of extra potatoes or bolani, essentially an Afghani quesadilla. Usually I'm able to stretch that into two meals since they give you so much. But really you can't go wrong with anything on the menu--the gyros are killer, the falafel is tasty, and the shawarma would be worthy of the Avengers. There's a reason it's named after their pitas and naan. And don't forget the baklava! ”
“ The service was excellent, greeted as we entered and talked through a couple options before ordering. Counter ordering with food brought out. Cute, clean interior with plenty of seating. The food was fresh but not very flavorful/spiced. Vegetarian options. Garlic naan was large and fresh. ”
“ I've been here a couple of times and the food and service are spot on! I do feel like I'm "cheating" on equally fabulous Mediterranean restaurants nearby. I tend to order off the menu because what I want is a bed of salad with chicken on it, lemon potatoes, and a pita on the side which is different than the menu item that has a side salad. Just make sure you are clear, and they will happily accommodate. ”
“ Finally had the chance to try this place and It didn't disappoint. They have a variety of curry dishes and some hand helds like gyro, shawarma and falafel. I got the gyro plate and it was really good and definitely hit the spot for my Mediterranean craving. The place is self-service, so you'll order at the counter and they'll bring your food to your table once ready. Plenty of seating at the back and very clean. The service is excellent and the folks behind the counter are super friendly. We'll definitely be back. ”
“ Great food, portion size, price (calculating for plenty of leftovers) I also got to meet the owner while I was waiting for my takeout and he's just a legit nice guy who loves what he does. He's the kind of guy you actively root for! ”
“ Good food and great service. Cooked fresh, nice size portions, decent flavor not authentic but good Mediterranean style food. The service is outstanding super friendly happy people serving quality food. Will be back again for lunch ”
“ Great food and great service! Both times I have been in, the owners are so nice and helpful. They explained what came with each meal option and what the flavor profile was of the two things I was deciding between. This time I got the yellow curry chicken and spicy tzatziki, such a great combo. You get a lot of food, I had the rest for lunch the next day. I love their garlic naan too, and they make it fresh to order which is awesome! Their lentil soup is also very good, lots of flavor and very filling. The restaurant is a cute little spot on O Street, small and cozy, clean and good lighting. I'm excited to go back and try the gyros! ”
