I love this place. As a convenience store, it has all sorts of candy bars, bottle drinks, etc. that you never ever see anywhere else. But it truly shines as a low-cost place for middle-eastern food. I had the Chicken Shawarma wrap and it was delicious ($7). And the fellow that was in charge was really nice and made sure I was happy with my food. Go there, NOW!!
THE BEST Mediterranean food i have ever had. I had the vegetarian plate and my boyfriend had the combo plate with the gyro and beef, and he had meat dolmas. Everything was so fresh, perfectly seasoned, and beautiful. The presentation was so pretty. The baba ganouj was probably the best I have ever had. The tabbouleh was so refreshing... and the service was great! The man who served us was so welcoming and friendly. We cannot wait to go back!
Okay the food was really really good. We didn’t have to wait for long. Seems to be a neighbourhood favourite and the owner was friendly. They have all the drink choices you could ever want and halal friendly menus for those that want that. Would definitely go again
Was not at all sure what to expect with a restaurant/convenience store but the food was delicious. Once we walked in and looked confused the cashier offered us menus and we picked some of the things that looked extra tasty. It wasn't particularly cheap considering it's takeaway but it was all worth it. Lots of great veggie options on the menu. Loved the veggie moussaka, spinach pie and french fries. Loved the halloumi too but the portion of halloumi was rather petite. Also worth a visit if you'd like to try a new soft drink or candy item, the shelves were bursting with interesting items.
The place is easy to miss on the outside looking in. It is overcrowded with drinks and boxes but there is a kitchen deep inside. Thanks to Google Maps, they can be found and the reviews and menu can be pulled out. We had the gyro and it was good. The kafta is spicy as it should be.
They don’t have to have tables for sit in but only if they have menus outside or the chance to see a counter looking in, they would be so successful.
I absolutely love this place. We come to New Orleans a couple times a month and we always stop in here, usually more than once! The hummus, the chicken, the tbone!!!! Are ALWAYS a can’t miss! Perfect late night spot as well! Mmm!! 🔥🔥🔥
They were closing and when we requested them we’d order quickly they let us in with a group of 8. The food was good but the servers were great.
A total dive convenience store that does not sell liquor or beer, but it does sell some tasty food! A pleasant surprise to wander across in my travels through this city.
FANTASTIC Mediterranean spot. This location is in a corner mini mart but don’t be fooled, the food is good. I went twice during my short stay in New Orleans. The falafel and chicken shawarma wraps were delicious was is the fried eggplant and Lebanese iced tea. While you’re waiting for your food, there are lots of snack and drink options to pick from. 5 stars!
It was my first time eating shawarma beef, and it was so delicious, also de service 10/10
Delicious food in an unassuming environment. Go into what looks like a convince store and notice the collection of international candy. Push past and to the delicious Mediterranean food in the back. Everything we had was amazing. We tried an appetizer sampler, gyro, lamb (x2), and veg plate.
Team Cleo's told us that they are about to open a new restaurant down the street. I'm excited to see where they go and will follow them wherever it may be.
Ate dinner here on 4/24/2023. The Turkish coffee was awesome (in my opinion) and the food is delicious.
