Everything we tried was amazing, from presentation to taste, also loved how attentive the service was, especially with the well timed dishes, we truly had such a great time enjoying every bite. You can not go wrong with anything here. I honestly could not pick a favorite between the Dolmades, the herbs were magical with the addictive yogurt sauce, or the Paidakia, the lamb was grilled perfectly, and the chimichurri straight banging, and I don't even really like chimichurri. While my wife really enjoyed the Sanganaki, which she described as a pure guilty pleasure with the seared cheese , or Souvlaki, with the succulent short ribs and to die for risotto. In short, every bite was perfect here! Only knock was it was extremely hot in the building, we could tell the AC was working, but we were both sweating, with the service staff being apologetic.

We also ordered the burger, which was tasty but loaded with so many toppings it was definitely a fork-and-knife situation. The burger came with fries and we had one soft drink; total was around $30. The place was clean and cute, and I'd go back. Especially for the double-fried French fries are my favorite. Plus their ice cream looked good. Only real feedback: the napkins were very small and cheap, so we went through a lot of them. Also, my gyro came out first and we waited about or at least 15 minutes longer for the burger and fries. Not a huge issue, but noticeable. I was on a date so I waited to eat my gyro until the burger came out.

The server was very helpful with telling me what I could and couldn't eat. I ordered the Vegan Remix Bowl & some sweet potato fries (cooked in canola oil & cross contaminated with other fried dishes so keep that in mind for GF options). I enjoyed the flavor profiles & their unique sauces. The falafel had a bit of a sweet taste which was a first for me but not bad at all. The reason for the 3 stars is that when a different staff person, Hispanic, dropped off my food, I noticed the cabbage slaw had carrots in it, which I wasn't aware of. When I informed them, they were very rude and stormed off before I could even request for the cabbage slaw to be completely removed. When I finally got a hold of them, they had an attitude and claimed the slaw could not be removed, which was not true. They repeatedly kept telling me it couldn't be removed and was not comprehending what I was saying. Outside of that, I would recommend this place.

We started with the fried cauliflower and zaatar fries, both served with an incredible dipping sauce that disappeared embarrassingly fast. The cauliflower was perfectly seasoned, crispy on the outside, tender inside, and honestly good enough to order again on its own. For my meal, I ordered the shakshuka. It arrived bubbling hot in a cast iron skillet with rich tomato sauce, flavorful meatballs, perfectly baked eggs, and warm grilled pita for scooping up every last bite. I've had shakshuka before, and this was easily one of the best versions I've tasted. Every bite was comforting, hearty, and packed with flavor. Spud went with a Laziz salad alongside another helping of the roasted cauliflower, which he thoroughly enjoyed. Everything that came to the table looked thoughtfully prepared, fresh, and beautifully presented. What made the experience truly memorable, though, was our waitress, Omri. As a Deaf customer, it's always a pleasant surprise when someone can communicate directly in sign language. Omri signed with us, made us feel genuinely welcome, and provided exceptional service from beginning to end. That personal connection meant a great deal to me, and it absolutely elevated an already wonderful meal. I was so impressed that I happily double-tipped her. Great food, warm hospitality, and an experience my son and I will both remember. We'll definitely be back.

$65.03 chicken & ribs family combo, soft drink, & salad. There is nothing here that would encourage…read moreme to return. The biggest surprise was about the meal is - it's not Greek. There wasn't anything I'd expect to taste in Greek cooking, such as garlic, onion, lemon, oregano, thyme, or rosemary. That's not necessarily a problem on its own, but it did create a different expectation versus what was served. The rib meat did fall off the bone easily. However, those most certainly appeared to be oven-cooked with steam (water on the bottom of the trey under a lid), with no pre-seasoning so the only flavors were coming from the commercial sauce squirted on afterward. Steaming the meat will remove it from the bones, but it doesn't always tenderized the meat. Some areas were chewy and tough. The chicken arrived quartered and the meat had a yellowish appearance. The breast meat was dry on the outside, although the thicker portions retained some moisture. Overall, the chicken was bland as they yellow didn't add any flavor nor did the rotisserie claimed cooking. It also didn't stand out. The side we ordered was the fries. Those were straight from bag to fryer. Standard. We were given three, 2 oz. cups of ketchup. We also ordered a full Greek salad and chose oil and vinegar as the dressing. What arrived was closer to a vinaigrette, served in small 2 oz individual cups, 1 per person. We paid extra for feta cheese, which was the only Greek flavor, otherwise they used California black olives rather than Kalamata olives. Continuing on the downward swing, one member of our group, on a separate check, ordered a side Greek salad with added feta. When the salad arrived without feta, I mentioned it to the staff. There was some confusion about whether it had been ordered, but feta was eventually provided. The interaction felt more contentious than it needed to be, though the issue was ultimately resolved. Service is primarily a counter-service, where you order and pay at the register, find a seat, and food is brought to the table. Drinks, utensils, and additional napkins are self-serve. We also bussed our own table at the end of the meal. The hallway leading to the restroom was not lit during our visit and contained cleaning equipment and some water on the floor. The restroom itself would benefit from a handyman and a professional finisher with caulking, paint and proper tools. Overall, the meal wasn't terrible and ended up being edible, but that's not how I'd like to remember my paid dining experiences. With so many strong options for Greek/Mediterranean food and BBQ around town, this restaurant isn't one I'd choose again. 3 stars to keep the review visible- otherwise 2.

The way the meat fell off this rib was insane, there was so much flavor in each part of the meal,…read moreeven the tzatziki sauce seemed to have a little extra punch that made me wish I'd got a second cup of it.
