    Chicken shwarma wraps with fries and hummus
    Ria B.

    I got chicken shwarma wraps with fries and hummus and a Greek salad for takeout. The salad was very fresh (lots of red onions on top) and chicken was well cooked in the wraps. The wraps had sliced cucumber pickles inside. That was new to me. Fries were soggy by the time I got home but I know they were not soggy when I got them and they tasted good nonetheless. I wanted a flavor other than garlic for the chicken (like *more* flavor), however, hence 1 star off.

    Fast service, hummus has a nice flavor, large portions of food, baba ghanoush is smoky flavor. Nice relaxes atmosphere, good service. Rice has a nice flavor

    Babylon Bowl with Falafel :)

    I've been a consistent customer here for at least the last 6 months and the Babylon Bowl combo never disappoints :) Great portion sizes, nice prices, and the staff are always friendly and make it a point to remember their regular customers!

    Awesome tasting food, very friendly staff. Comfortable seating and the aroma of the meat and chicken add to the eating exOur first time and we will be back!

    Lamb kabob wrap

    BEST baklava in the Dayton area. So so good. The food is amazing too. I had a lamb kabab wrap and falafels.

    Hubby and I visited Babylon on a Saturday afternoon for the first time. We walked in and were immediately greeted. We looked at the menu above the counter for a while, figuring out what we wanted and what would work for my issues. I ordered the lamb Platter and confirmed with the guy at the register that it was no dairy with rice and vegetables. He agreed and even repeated, "Yes, with rice and vegetables, just like the picture." Hubby ordered the chicken shawarma sandwich with fries and grape leaves. The restaurant was quiet when we walked in, and no one else was waiting, although it seemed like there were some To-go orders as well. Our food came out quickly and looked amazing. However, nothing "like the picture" and no vegetables were present. Instead, there was a large piece of thin flat bread on top. I tried my lamb, and the flavor was spot on. But way too well done for my taste. However, hubby reminded me they are a Halal restaurant, and that's how beef is cooked. Hubby's chicken wrap was beyond amazing, and we ended up sharing both just to try it. I would definitely recommend Babylon to try, and we will probably go back. But keep in mind that beef is cooked well done and things might not be "just like the picture."

    Chicken shawarma platter, mixed platter, falafel

    Stopped by to grab some takeout and got a falafel starter, chicken shawarma platter and a mixed platter. Everything tasted awesome and super fresh! Would highly recommend.

    Chicken Philly Cheesesteak

    I had the Chicken Philly today, and wow... I can't even describe the flavor, but it is amazing, fresh, and different. The toppings were grilled just right. The cheese is creamy and delicious. It is a huge sandwich that comes with fries, which are also uniquely seasoned. The staff was super nice, too. I can't wait to try everything on the menu.

    I am visiting from out of town and wanted to go somewhere that was not a chain. Cafe Terra was…read morerated highly so I decided to try it. The atmosphere was great, very clean and open. The service was also very good and we never had to wait long for anything. Now the food was a different story. While everything was good, the for was absolutely amazing! I had the prime rib kabob. The meat was flavored perfectly and e rice was cooked exactly right. My last had cream chicken that was also outstanding. My favorite was the red sauce dipping sauce. Just delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant if you are in the area

    This was a mixed experience…read more First - there felt like some confusion about where the entrance was. I know this was a challenge because another couple rolled up after us and also said "oh we are also looking for this place!" Second - service was... not great. After being seated, we waited 15 minutes before anyone even came to take our drinks order - and this was after I stared at the bar for a long time. The tables on either sides... waited a long time for checks and table did not even get cleared for a good 30 to 40 minutes after they left. We had to request extra utensils.. the table only had a set for 2, and they sat the three of us. Towards the end, we ordered our desert to go and the check just so that we would not be stuck waiting... Third? Food is indeed amazing and delish! Their hummus was yummy. I loved my turkish soda with watermelon and strawberry. The tea was good. My husband tried the turkish tea - it was good.. my kebab meal originally did not come with rice - so i ordered a side of it. Important to mention because the rice is freakin delicious a. It was sooo aromatic - like I wantwd to eat two servings of it. Get it if you love rice. Husbands steak was a little chewier than he liked, but he agreed the rice was so good. Overall the food itself meth the expectations that other reviewers put. The service has room for improvement. I would definitely like to come back and give the last star for service..

The menu SUGGESTED adding mayo but that's apparently not allowed anymore. The place was weirdly quiet, the drink station was dirty, the Greek potato's in my to go order were FREEZING. The sauce on the side was a mix of liquid and chunky and was needed because there was zero seasoning on the potato's. The wrap had no pickle but promised pickle. The lettuce in the wrap was brown in places. The chicken was good but this place has gone way down. Probably won't be back here again. Too bad!!!

    We stopped here for dinner on a long, long, long drive north to the Detroit area. I really wanted…read moreto get a small taste of local flavor instead of just eating fast food, and Olive was more or less on our way, so we hopped off the interstate to grab a bite. Now, from some of the pictures of the outside on Yelp, it looks like this is a standalone business with a private parking lot. That might have been the case at one time, but either the business moved or it has a second location that's freestanding and the pics are in the wrong spot, as that's not the case now. This Olive is very much in the downtown-ish area, carved into the ground floor of a much larger building. As such, parking may be a bit more challenging since there doesn't appear to be a private lot. That said, we had no trouble finding a spot on the street within a block or two. Parking was paid for with the Passport app, and it was reasonable. Of course, it might be harder during nicer weather -- not a lot of people out on a rainy evening! We walked in to find the restaurant fairly spacious but almost deserted -- only two other people waiting for to-go orders. Kind of odd for a Friday night, but again...weather. The decorations are kind of sparse but the place, including the bathroom, was clean. We ordered our meal at the counter and sat down to wait. Husband got a gyro and fries, and I got the Shish tawook platter, which came with grilled chicken, a salad, rice, and pita. We also got an order of the Greek potatoes to try out as an appetizer. Service was a little gruff at checkout but gave us a genuine, kind-hearted thank you as we left, so I guess they just had to warm up to us, lol. The potatoes came out first and were my favorite part of the meal! They were clearly cooked fresh. I'm honestly not sure what's Greek about them as they kinda reminded me of hash browns (the cubed, hash kind) with a little squeeze of lemon and maybe some herbs on top...but if it ain't broke, don't fix it! They were piping hot and very crispy. Husband and I enjoyed our meals, too. His gyro was very large and almost over-stuffed with gyro meat. The fries were medium-cut but tasted like McDonald's fries somehow...not complaining. My Shish tawook was very juicy and flavorful. I've had better rice and pita but these were both quite serviceable and I enjoyed a fairly healthy-feeling meal. Honestly, my true rating is maybe more in-line with a 3.5...but I don't have any super severe criticisms and we had a quite pleasant time overall, so I'll just round up to a 4. Seems like they do a lot of carryout / delivery business. I'd recommend this spot for a decently healthy, very fresh Mediterranean bite if you're in the area.

The Greek-Style Philly Cheesesteak sandwich, onion rings, and mozzarella cheese sticks were packed in styrofoam containers. The Tzatziki sauce for the sandwich and marinara sauce for the mozzarella cheese sticks were placed in plastic containers which were then placed in a small paper bag. Items were then placed in a big paper bag that was stapled together. Food was packed very well. The Greek-Style Philly Cheesesteak is basically gyro-style lamb meat but instead of placing it in pita bread it is put in a submarine-sandwich style roll with cheese on top. I picked provolone cheese. The sandwich was overflowing with a good amount of gyro meat, but the lettuce and tomatoes didn't seem very fresh. I did eat one half of it, and the meat was good, but if I ever order from here again, I would get the sandwich without the lettuce and tomatoes. The bread on the sandwich was pretty good though. The onion rings were a disappointment. They were soggy to me. Not much of a crunch and it didn't seem they were freshly cooked. The mozzarella cheese sticks were really good. Out of everything in my order, these seemed to be the best. Overall, I would not recommend. I liked the idea of gyro meat on a submarine sandwich bun, but the lettuce and tomatoes didn't seem fresh. Onion rings, likewise, were not very good. They were soggy and underwhelming.
