    Falafel on Pita (with side salad)
    Melody B.

    I always pass this place when I'm in Greensboro and I finally decided to try it. Ghassan's did not disappoint! I ordered to-go through their website online to be picked up immediately. My order was a falafel on pita. It came with one side so I picked a side salad with a pickle. Food was ready within 15 minutes of when I ordered. It was located in a pick-up area so it was easy to find and grab. The whole meal was delicious and fresh. It was a very affordable and filling lunch too at less than $10. I definitely plan on ordering from here again!

    The place is nice , bright, clean, organized and with full of happy employees ready to serve you. We ordered a bunch of pitas made from scratch I'm sure. Chicken Shawarma Pita "The Middle Eats and the Harissa Chicken Bowl. We really enjoyed our lunch here in Ghassan's fresh Mediterranean joint.

    Sometimes, when you try something new, it goes wrong. And sometimes it just makes you appreciate those good places. This is one of those experiences, and one of those reviews. Just wait their advertisement of fresh, the Gyro meat is the thinly sliced, frozen meat that you can get at most establishments. The tzatziki that complemented it, didn't really complement it. No taste of dill, pickle, spices, anything. While it didn't taste bad, Didn't have that fresh tzatziki taste one would expect from a establishment that proclaims to be fresh. Did I mention the Gyro meat was frozen processed meat? No spit? No good chunks of meat that I've been chard on the grill? The chicken Shawarma was mediocre at best. While it wasn't terrible, it doesn't stand out, especially when you go to Trulia authentic Middle Eastern establishments. In a city that has a plethora of offerings, this is one that you're better off missing.

    Harissa Chicken Bowl

    I've been eyeing this place for a while because we are in the area alot. Today was finally our day to stop in for a late lunch. It's a casual restaurant where you order at the counter and they bring the food to your table. I wanted the falafel platter but then the Harrisa chicken rice bowl caught my eye so I went with that. And boy am I glad I did. I have never had this flavor of chicken before but the sauce was delicious (and not spicy) and I really enjoyed the tabouli and the pickled cabbage. It also had a white sauce on top that tasted like sour cream, but not being a fan of sour cream I did not care for it. The service was nice and when the soda fountain ran out of ice they promptly filled it up. I look forward to coming back another day and try the falafel platter.

    Every time I visit this business my food is delicious! I have sat in and ordered carryout and my experience is always consistent. There's plenty of seating indoors. Every time that I've visited, the area is clean and sanitized. I LOVE their Chicken Salad with pita. That's my favorite thing to order when I visit. I have also ordered their Grilled Chicken Salad and that is tasty as well. I never have to wait for a long time to receive my order. The workers always appear friendly and accommodating.

    I ordered catering for a company lunch. food was fresh and hot when I arrived. ordered chicken kabob skewers and Greek salad. I was missing the salad dressing but when I asked the staff I was quickly given the missing item. I went during lunch time, it was busy but well maintained and there wasn't a line.

    As an Arab I'll tell you what I really enjoyed and what tasted like home cooking The muhammura pepper dip was perfect like back home The falafel as well! Perfect and I enjoy how they are flatter The toom (garlic dip) was also perfect and you can take tubs home. The tabbuli was also perfect theirs had quinoa in it which was great. I wish the yogurt dip was more like labban or lebneh which is thicker and saltier but I'm sure this is more palatable for western/southern folks. The hummus was good I just add a ton of garlic to mine Toasted nuts would have sent this over the end but for a fast food place this is AMAZING Also their shirts say yalla which made me smile I definitely want one, wish I could have met the owner to say thanks and how good it was!! I'll be back to try the Zataar fries.

    One of my favorite Mediterranean eats in Greensboro. The Chicken Shawarma Bowl is my go to and is always so fresh and so tasty. The variety of favors and textures really work together so well. The pickled cabbage and tabouli really bring out the flavor of the chicken. The pita is always fresh and warm. Already looking forward to my next trip!

    Quick update: the veggie rice bowl is fire! I ordered this for takeout and it was still hot and fresh when I got it home. The only thing I would do the next time I order is get a light serving of the red cabbage. And the Lebanese pickles. That combination gave it more of a tart taste and the flavors of the two was too much for my tastebuds. Everything else was great though. I really loved the tahini sauce that is drizzled over the cauliflower. And the hummus was a great addition. My fellow vegetarians, I would definitely recommend this dish. I think you would love it prepared just the way it is. My above review was just my preference. All of the ingredients are great together and it's definitely worth a try!

I simply got bao buns -- seemed appropriate, plus what is better than a good pork bao bun? And these were excellent. Some of the best in-a-restaurant pork bao buns I've encountered. Interior seating and atmosphere is somewhat less than bare bones -- a few communal tables, and a few little metal high tops; it fits the small bao shop aesthetic, though it's always a little dispiriting to sit at a table that's still dirty from multiple previous meals. But, the bao buns were great -- very flavorful char siu style pork, and a very evenly distributed amount of little extras to keep the pork company. And the buns themselves were perfect.

Takeout seems very common here as well. 2 additional tables outside if the weather is nice. Went with a pork banh mi sandwich and fresh shrimp rolls. Everything was made to order and came out quickly. Rolls were huge! Fresh and tasty all around. Pork was tender and full of flavor, bread itself was also super fresh with a great crunch. The food alone is 5 stars, but the prices would raise the bar to 5+ stars if possible. The value you get for what you pay is amazing. Almost everything on the extensive menu is $11 or less, and many in the range of $6-$7 including my sandwich and spring rolls. When you're paying $15-$20 at many other places for the same thing, you can see the value here. Compare this to the rising costs in the fast food industry for significantly less quality food, and you can consider this a steal. Great spot for a quick lunch, takeout, or dinner with a few friends and family at a place that doesn't break the bank.

They serve primarily bar style and fast foods, but with soy-based protein. Although the food is very expensive (ranging from $16-$17), the portion sizes are very generous, and it is well worth every penny. For our meals, we had The Tacos, Chorizo Crunch Wrap, and Chik'n Loko. The Tacos are a set of four with four options, in which they normally split the tacos at a maximum of 2 flavors; however, the server was so kind to make an exception and give us one of each: shrimp, steak, chorizo, and chicken. I did not try the steak; however, you cannot go wrong with any of those options! The Chorizo Crunch Wrap is a vegan powerhouse and was really hard to distinguish whether it was plant-based. The Chorizo Crunch Wrap was the best by a long shot. All of our options seemed to be seasoned to perfection. Also, if you're a person that has a sweet tooth, they also have plenty of desserts such as cookies amongst other items upon request. This place was not really busy. It has a really chill vibe with Spanish acoustics on the speakers and a few TVs for entertainment. I can definitely see this place jumping on a mid-summer day. I will definitely be making a trip here every time I visit Greensboro because this place is a hidden gem.

I am happy to report that my last visit won me over... I now understand why so many people in Greensboro love this restaurant. It was a ridiculously cold night, and as soon as I walked in, the space looked and felt warm and inviting. I started with a cocktail, an espresso martini, and it was perfectly made. We ordered the crab dip for an appetizer, and the game changer was asking for crostini instead of the crackers they normally serve it with. I ordered the Panko crusted tuna served over wilted greens and polenta with a plum gastrique for my main dish. It was absolutely phenomenal. I loved it so much that I plan to go back within the next week or so to eat it again - it really was that delicious! My friend ordered a pasta dish which she also said was delicious.

They have a good variety of options on the menu, and a nice beer menu. I got the Paella, which was good, but not the best I've had. Prices were a bit high compared to the portions which was a bit disappointing. I finished my meal all in one sitting, but do wish I had ordered something else. If/when i go back, I won't be ordering the paella. Good visit, but certainly caters to an older crown. I think a lot of what you pay for here is the name and reputation. Worth checking out.

I ordered the "#1 with two patties (two Vegan smash burgers with Vegan cheese, grilled onions, special sauce, lettuce, no pickles, and tomatoes) with their DELICIOUS seasoned fries. My friend ordered another combo that looked like the Big Mac (but Romeo Style), with fries and a pink lemonade. Both meals came out quickly, fresh, and absolutely YUMMY. I can't believe everything was plant-based and THAT tasty. I know it's probably not good for my waistline, but I will be going back for those burgers. They taste like homemade. The only thing I didn't enjoy was the bun, because it was not as pillow-soft as I prefer. My friend said they had changed the bun recently, and preferred the prior sesame-seed bun. Either way, everything else was FIRE. Oh, I forgot to mention, my friend isn't a Vegan, but he makes it a point to stop in at Romeo's whenever he is nearby. How do I make that make sense? Romeo's has "the bomb" burgers and fries, Vegan or not. Check them out!

For the main dish I got the spicy smash burger and added bacon. The burger was pretty tasty, both patties were juicy and overall it was the perfect spice. I will say, the burger patties themselves didn't really seem like smash style patties, they were fairly thicker and seemed to be normal grilled patties.
