    --Location/Parking-- Plenty of parking in the strip mall. --Ambience-- A cross between a pizza restaurant with Greek decoration adorning the walls and space throughout the restaurant. --Service/Staff-- Staff was helpful in recommendations and explaining the menu. Since I am not familiar with Greek food this was helpful in my order --Food/Products-- I recommend the lamb as your meat choice. The taste was perfect. If you are getting any platter I recommend the lamb and my 2nd choice of chicken. The fries. I recommend to no or very little salt is how I like it. --Capacity-- Plenty of seating to hold 30 plus parties of 4. --Overall-- Great Yelp event if you love pizza and mingling with other Yelpers. Thank you Alexa for finding this hidden gem.

    Amazing staff!

    A Hidden Gem in Athens - An Unforgettable Dining Experience at Mironi! During our recent trip to Athens, We had the absolute pleasure of dining at Mironi, and it quickly became one of the highlights of our visit. This restaurant offers a perfect blend of authentic Greek flavors, warm hospitality, and a cozy atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with smiles and a genuine warmth that set the tone for the entire evening. The staff were attentive, knowledgeable, and went out of their way to ensure we had a memorable experience. Their passion for the cuisine was evident in every recommendation they made. The food was simply outstanding. The moussaka was heavenly--rich and flavorful with the perfect balance of spices. You can truly sense the pride the team has in showcasing the best of Greek cuisine. If you're in Athens and looking for an authentic, delicious, and welcoming dining experience, Mironi is a must-visit. They offer the typical Greek music and dance including breaking the plates, sooo fun I can't recommend it enough!

    I've visited this location in the past and it seemed OK at the time. I was recently in the area and got excited to see Greek food. I do share some of the sentiments of some of the other reviewers who gave the restaurant a lower rating. Parking is not an issue. It's in a plaza with other businesses so there was a lot of parking available. The entrance where the 'Open' sign is felt a bit claustrophobic to me. I open one door to then open another. Not really sure how convenient that is. It also gives more contact points which is not good for the time we are in. Maybe I also didn't look well enough but the restaurant didn't feel too clean. I ordered a falafel plate to go and also baklava. The plate was in a styrofoam container and the baklava was on a styrofoam plate wrapped with saran wrap. The baklava had a little too much honey/syrup for my liking. The falafels were good and so were the fries, but the salad was just OK.

Stopped in for the first time last week. I had this bookmarked for a while and decided it was time to check it out for date night. Hubby ordered the beef sticks with grape leaves and I ordered the burger with a side of fries. We started out with the saganaki (flaming cheese). Everything was delicious with the exception of the grape leaves (can't recall the official name of this dish). I told hubby that some reviews had mentioned they were soggy and not too good. He agreed with those reviewers and would not recommend. The saganaki was both literal and metaphorical fire. The pita points it was served with were crunchy, which was pleasantly surprising. We both did wish there was some kind of sweetness to complement the cheese like a fruit jam or something, but it was delicious regardless. The beef on the sticks was tasty as was the burger but the star of the whole show were the fries. Hubby typically does not like fries but he loved these and was happy that I let him share them with me. Lol I am not sure what kind of seasoning they had but our taste buds definitely approved. They don't come with the burger but were definitely worth getting on the side. It was a little on the pricey side at about $35-40 more than our typical date night spend for less food, but it was good overall. Too pricey to make it into our weekly rotation, but will be a nice addition to our special occasion options.

I ordered the equivalent of my favorite item at Greek eateries, "The Zeus (Halal) Gyro Platter" with Greek potatoes and a wholesome salad. There were two prevailing elements that stood out to me immediately upon entering the establishment and receiving my food: (1) The dining room is clean and tastefully decorated. (2) The portions are large and more than enough to satisfy one person. The gyro was hearty, but the protein of choice overwhelmed me; the tzatziki sauce and tomatoes were hardly noticeable in the presence of an abundance of protein. I would prefer less meat but understand that is not a common critique. The Greek potatoes and salad were about the same in regard to flavor and seasoning with slightly more garlic at "Yeero Village." While "Yeero Village" is still my preferred establishment, Zeus Greek Street Food is certainly an excellent choice whether or not you live in the area.

It's in a shopping center so there's free parking. It's right off Roswell Road so you really can't miss it even though it is kinda off in the corner but it's still easy to find . They have a little outdoor area so you can actually sit outside if you wanted to be in the element and it's actually covered as well because it's right under the awning of the building so that's an option too. You come in and it's a large shop but it's not a lot. Most of the space there is going to be seating. You can look around and they have a little market area but the market area is very small. They do have particular specific items so you can check that out while you wait for your food. You can see the menus on the board and everybody there is super friendly and they'll explain anything to you. We had a pretty good short conversation while I waited. Love the customer service . Hummus - I tried the hummus and it was okay. Nothing crazy about it and it was just regular and not like it was roasted red pepper or garlic or anything like that but it was decent . Chicken shawarma wrap - the wrap was pretty good. It wasn't great but it was pretty good. It had a lot of color to it, meaning they were seasoning it for sure, but the flavor was only okay. The flavor was not popping out of your mouth but it was a decent but subtle flavor. It was super tender! Chicken kabob - the kebab plate came with two skewers and rice with a salad and it came with some garlic sauce as well. I think that the kebab was better than the shawarma to me. It had the same char flavor but mixed with the rice and the garlic sauce, it took it up another notch as well. You got a lot of it though so it wasn't like you only got two pieces of meat per skewer and a small handful of rice. You got a bed of rice so it was really good. The salad was low quality but I really didn't care about that because I didn't come for salad lol. Overall you paid maybe like $12 or $14 for this. It wasn't bad for a full plate . All in all it was a pretty decent experience. They're very customer-oriented and customer-friendly so you go in there, you will be fine. They'll take care of you

Mediterranean Express in Roswell offers a really fun combination of Mediterranean favorites and Indian classics, so the menu has something for just about everyone. If you're looking to try something a little different from your typical Mediterranean restaurant, this is definitely a place worth visiting. On this visit, my wife and I ordered the vegetable samosas, samosa chaat, butter chicken flatbread, butter chicken with rice, vegetable korma with rice, cheesy naan, and garlic naan. Every dish came out fresh, hot, and packed with flavor. The butter chicken was rich, creamy, and paired perfectly with the fluffy basmati rice. The vegetable korma was comforting, full of vegetables, and had a wonderful creamy sauce. The butter chicken flatbread was a fun twist that worked surprisingly well, combining Indian flavors with a crispy flatbread. The samosa chaat was another standout, layering crispy samosas with chickpeas, yogurt, chutneys, and fresh toppings for a dish full of different textures and flavors. Don't skip the naan! Both were excellent, but the cheesy naan completely stole the show for me. It was soft, cheesy, buttery, and perfect for scooping up every last bit of sauce. What impressed me just as much as the food was the service. Everyone was welcoming, friendly, and genuinely cared that we enjoyed our meal. Before we left, the owner brought me a complimentary Mango Lassi just so I could try it because he was proud of it. That kind of hospitality is something you don't see every day. The Mango Lassi was smooth, creamy, refreshing, and absolutely delicious. I'll definitely be ordering one the next time I visit. The restaurant itself is clean, comfortable, and has plenty of seating indoors along with a nice outdoor patio if you'd rather enjoy the weather. Parking is also easy since it's located in a shopping center with plenty of spaces available. This is one of those restaurants I'll happily drive back to. Great food, excellent service, generous hospitality, and a menu that's fun to explore. If you enjoy Mediterranean food, Indian food, or both, I highly recommend giving Mediterranean Express a try.
