Definitely my favorite spot for lunch in downtown Raleigh. The food and staff are equally fantastic. I'm greeted by name when I walk in. Come on, who does that anymore? They remember my favorites and what I've ordered in the past and great at suggesting new things to try. So yes, maybe I eat there more than I should but it's just so tasty.
I travel twice a month and always look for a place like this. Very clean and delectable place. The owner greets you warmly and makes your selection with care and love. Great location for a quick lunch. Sumptuous and priced right. Unbeatable!!
This is a great grab and go spot for when you're in the mood for something other than the typical fast food fare.
I order the falafel sandwich. It's way more than I expected, loaded falafel that's crispy on the outside and toothsome on the inside, tomatoes, tahini, pickles and lettuce. My only complaint is it came with only three pieces of falafel.
My wife ordered the lamb gyro. It's modest for the price, but certainly not small. The meat was flavorful not just salty. The vegetables were fresh and the tzatziki was great.
The menu is varied enough that everyone in your group can find something to order. Seating inside is non-existent, just a small bar, so be prepared.
There aren't enough stars for the ubiquitous flavors contained in this Veggie Platter. This place absolutely nailed what they do. I had the Falafel, Tabouli, Baba Ganoush, Grape Leaves. Every bite was different fresh flavored experience. I travel a ton and love Mediterranean Food and this place is in the top % of great!
Thanks Guys.
Every time I have been to this place the quality and the service were the same. All the cooking utensils are clean and the person using them (I'm guessing is the owner) keeps everything in order. The food is good, service was quick. The only observation I have, same as what another person has said, they're using styrofoam boxes (see picture) which could be avoided.
I enjoy fast ethnic places. This is a small grab and go restaurant. It is Mediterranean style food so gyros, tabouli, hummus baba ganoush and kabobs.
The flavors are spot on for mild Mediterranean food in my opinion. The lamb was mild, chick was white meat and beef we well seasoned.
I read a few reviews about the meat being dry. I was happy with the beef and lamb but the chicken was a bit dry. It was not so dry that I need to drink after every bit and the sauces and sides can easily help with any dryness.
I was pleased with the size of portions, it felt about right for the price. Might feel a bit high since it is a grab and go and not a sit down, but I highly suggest it to anyone.
Also you can buy the sides by the pound. Could be a great idea for a side dish at home, party or office.
Note: not all meals were pictured as an fyi.
I’ve been eating there for the past 9 years and the test never changed or downgraded at all ,delicious meals I’ve tried the whole menu lol .
Glad they were open on a rainy day when so many places weren't. Service and food were both awesome!
Great food and service. Friendly people. The price was great also. If you are downtown this is the place you need to go. Best food in town.
Excellent Services and food. I recommend it 100%. Thanks.
The Gyro I had was great! It was delicious, and a little kick to it. They even have a discount if you get the combo of your choice
I eat here fairly regularly. The lamb is good, and the sides are good. Grape leaves are delicious, and the fries are cooked well. Staff is friendly enough and the prices aren't bad. The only bad thing here is the line can get rather long, and you sometimes have to wait a bit longer than you'd like for your order. Still, good food, good price!
