The food is fresh and is delivered to your table promptly, and the waitstaff is very kind and courteous. You get enormous portions and they are very reasonably priced. My favorites are the tabouli salad and the eggplant sandwich. It is a dream for vegetarians or vegans, or flat out carnivores. They have something for everyone. The french fries are literally the best in town. Sometimes I will go there on my way home just to get the french fries. I'm not sure what the spices are, but they are so crispy and flavorful. Lunch for three with appetizer and drinks came out to $43. We all had takeout containers. I suggest you call in an order as opposed to using any of the apps, if you go to takeout route. Or order directly from their website. Definitely check out the market as well. I can't recommend this place enough.

I ordered the grilled chicken plate with yellow rice, hummus, pita, falafel, and a side salad. The chicken was juicy and paired perfectly with the seasoned rice.

Even the simple salad tasted fresh and balanced out the plate nicely. Overall the portion size was generous and the flavors were spot on. For carryout, the quality held up really well and everything tasted fresh. I'll definitely be back when I'm craving Mediterranean food.

We arrived a few minutes after noon on a Saturday and were promptly seated. Our waitress took drink orders and returned to answer our questions and take our orders. We had a lamb gyro, lamb kebab and my daughter ordered a plate with a sweet rice, falafel, hummus and a Mediterranean salad. Everyone was more than pleased with the flavors of their dish. We shared tastes around. I found the rice interesting, but prefer more savory when accompaniment to an entree. The marinated lamb for the kebab was outstanding and the meat cooked perfectly. I even tried the hummus which to my surprise was very good. I do not as a rule enjoy chick peas, but this mix was delightful. The restaurant itself carried the desired theme, even offering traditional low seating for those who wish that feeling. Solid five stars. I'd give extra to the wait staff for how they dealt with the chronic complainer at the next table, if Yelp would allow that extra. If you're looking for outstanding Mediterranean cuisine, give Pars a try.

I recently tried the baklava as well and was pleasantly surprised--it was pretty tasty. Service is generally quick, and the staff working the tables have been friendly. The overall vibe feels like a classic, laid-back spot you'd expect near a university. One small area for improvement would be at the ordering counter. During our most recent visit, the staff seemed a bit distracted while chatting among themselves while we were at the counter trying to place our order. A little extra attentiveness and warmth at that point would really elevate an already enjoyable experience.

I I have to wait more than 10 minutes for the waiter, or someone to come by after I've been seated that's it. It's worse when they're clearly not busy but just jawboning with a friend. It was also an almost empty restaurant so this wasn't about being busy. It's called the hospitality industry for a reason.

I also had a second order from them about six weeks later that I ordered with several friends. Again, the food's presentation was appealing, and the food was great.
