    Chicken Shawarma, Sujak Hummus, Cheese Rolls, Fattoush
    Teresa S.

    From the moment you walk into the restaurant, you know you are in for a treat. The amazing smells make you drool immediately. On a local Sherwood Park social media page, everyone raves about this place and for good reason. It's absolutely delicious and the servings are large. There are so many things to try that I wasn't sure what to get. I decided to try a few things and everything was lovely. The chicken shawarma was soft and flavourful with rice, pickled items and an amazing thick garlic dip. The cheese rolls were melt in your mouth cane with a thinner garlic dip that was dynamite. The winner for me was the sujak hummus that had a spicy ground meat mixture on top. Served with pitas it was so rich in flavour and tasted even better the next day. The salad is so simple yet incredibly balanced and tasty. The dressing is so good. This will absolutely not be my last visit and it's the kind of food I will be dreaming about. We did takeout but if you would like to eat in they do have a few tables.

    Great food, small restaurant, we order from here for work. All our employees loved the food. They use to be known as Gregg Mediterranean Restaurant, which our employee were disappointed when they closed at 25 Sioux Rd, Sherwood Park, AB T8A 4C7. Glad to report that Gregg Express has the same great good at their new location.

    I stumbled across this place last night. Originally I had planned to go to Cafe Haven with my date for dinner (my bad, they are closed for dinner). Gregg's is located pretty much next door so we decided to give it a try. This restaurant is on the smaller side and was empty when we arrived but within half an hour it filled up. It might be best to call ahead and make reservations especially on weekends. The waitress mentioned they make almost everything there and in small batches every few days. We started by trying their dip trio. It was delicious, especially their labneh (best I've had)! My boyfriend ordered the falafel wrap, and I the tabouli. They nailed the falafel wrap. The tabouli was meh. It was a lot of parsley and not much of anything else. I would have enjoyed it as a side salad but not as a main meal. That's ok though because I filled up on the dip trio and pita bread and added a little tabouli with every bite. Overall we were super happy to have discovered this place and would recommend it to others. The service was pleasant and friendly.

    Interesting name for a restaurant who's owner is not named Greg. After enquiring with the owners about the name, I was told that this newly opened restaurant in the former Café de Ville Sherwood Park location, is named after one of the top restaurants in Beirut Lebanon. Big shoes to fill and big reputation to try to duplicate. First let me start with letting you know that I am of Lebanese decent and regularly eat an prepare mid-eastern foods. As can be expected, I looked at Gregg Mediterranean's menu with a bit of apprehension, having been too often disappointed by similar restaurants. I went there for lunch with my friend who was not very familiar with mid-east cuisine. The menu dishes' ingredients are partially listed but the dishes themselves are not well described. When I asked the waitress about how some of the dishes are prepared, she was not sure and I believe may have guessed. I say this because whe I asked if the cheese sambusik was in phylo pastry and fried, she said it was phylo but baked. It was not phyli and was fried. That said, it was delicious and I highly recommend it. The pastry was buttery and flaky. The cheese perfectly melted and mixed with parsley and spices. We ordered a salad each and were more than grateful that the waitress recommended we have half orders as we also ordered a half mezze platter. The half orders were only $4.00 each and could have been a meal by themselves! I had the tabouli, which surprised me by being made with regular white onions instead of green onions. It was still quite good and I would definitely order it again. My friend had the fattoush, I stole a bite and it was perfect with just the right amount of summac used. Our mezze platter came with the above mentionef sambusik, kibbe, spinach fatayers, and haloumi cheese. There were 4 of each mezze and various Lebanese pickles, cucumber slices and tomatoes. The fresh veggies were perfect and ripe! Nice surprise for January in Alberta. The kibbe was a tasty mix of ground beef, cracked wheat, onions and allspice, offered in nice size balls and unbelievably well stuffed, not half empty like others that I have tasted. The spinach fatayer were not as well stuffed. They could use a bit more spinach in them but they were very tasty and not too lemony. The halloumi cheese was nice and chewy, well spiced but a bit too salty for my taste. It could have used a bit of soaking or rinse to remove some of the saltiness. Accompanying our meal were a basket of pita and dipping yogurt/sour cream (no extra charge). We were also given a complimentary hummous. After the meal we were given a small plate of sliced apples and bananas, lightly sprinkled with caramel and chocolate sauce. The waitress told us that everyone gets a complimentary fruit nappy. What a lovely touch. The fruit eas quite tasty and the sauce was just the right amount to make plain fruit more exciting. There is a nice dessert menu with cakes, baklava, and rice pudding. I had my heart set on the rice pudding but they had run out and I was told that they were making more later on in the day. I was disappointed but figured I would survive. My friend ordered a Monte Cristo coffee (it was delicious according to her). We stayed to chat and enjoy the warm fireplace as she sipped on her coffee. Ten minutes later, the eaitres came to let us know that if we stayed a bit longer, the chef would have some fresh pudding for us, on the house! Of course we waited!! They brought us to "to-go" containers filled with hot rice pudding, which I devoured as soon as I got home! It was rose-water scented and lightly dusted with cinnamon. Mmm, a perfect ending to a delicious meal. Just like my Teta (grandma) used to make! This is definitely a "must go to" restaurant with generous and tasty dishes. They know what good customer service is and go beyond it!

    A girlfriend and I decided to do a "ladies who lunch" afternoon and chose this new restaurant in Sherwood Park. We did so with some trepidation as my friend is Egyptian/Lebanese and knows what good mediterranean food should taste like. So, did it pass her taste test? Well, first let me tell you what I thought. The menu was interesting but I didn't understand what most of the dishes were. It would have been nice to have a bit of a description of what the dishes contained for us, the uninitiated. I was able to get the advice and input from my friend and I chose a half order of the Fattoush, my friend chose the tabouli salad and we shared a half mezza. For the half mezza we chose grilled halloume cheese, fried kibbie, spinach fatayer and cheese sambusik. If you like Greek saganaki, you will love the grilled halloume cheese. It is soooo salty and nummy! I stuffed my warm pita bread with the cheese and some of my fattoush for a tasty treat! The fried kibbie was moist, flavourful and was amazing with some of the complimentary hummus they brought out for us or the yogurt dip that came with the mezza. I enjoyed the fattier and the sambusik as well, the pastry was flavourful and was obviously not a prepackaged type. My friend wanted to try their rice pudding but there was none ready, but after chatting for a while at our table, the waitress came back and said if we were willing to wait about 10 minutes, the chef was just finishing up a batch. About 15 minutes later the waitress appeared with two to-go containers. They were well worth the wait, as it was absolutely delicious. Our lunch was very reasonable and came to $54 for the two of us, including two drinks. Now back to my friend. Apparently, this is food just like her Gramma used to make. I think that qualifies as a high compliment!

    My coworkers are frequent visitors for lunch at Gregg's and today I decided to try it out as well. They have a full one page menu with photos showing all the lunch specials that are $10. I tried the chicken shawarma. It came with a side of fattoush salad, a big helping of rice/noodle combo and small pieces of chicken on top. I was very surprised at the amount of food I got for such a cheap price! I was also worried that the rice wasn't going to taste like much but it was super flavourful without being I've powering. The only thing was that the fattoush was pretty heavy on the sumac. Great lunch spot if you work in the Sherwood park area.

    Labneh salad.  Ask for the dressing on the side as I found it overpowering.  Same for the Greek salad.

    Newer local Mediterranean Greek style restaurant. Saw the good reviews and checked it out. We have been to Greece twice. Small inside but nice. In a strip mall. Quiet and good for couples. Was busy on a Friday. Mediterranean music playing was nice. Service was excellent. Food was average however. Our Shawarma was very spicy for some reason and I'm no slouch. Had the burps for hours. The rice was good. The Labneh salad had too much vinegary dressing and there was very little feta cheese. Their Greek salad is not true Greek as it comes with lettuce and they skimp on the feta. Good place to try once.

    Chicken Shawarma platter, fantastic

    I met a couple colleagues here for lunch and had a really good experience. The restaurant is…read moretucked away just off Calgary Trail and has a decent amount of parking. The ambiance and atmosphere are very warm and inviting and I can say the same about the service. Our server was helpful, friendly and informative. I ordered the beef souvlaki lunch plate which came with rice and salad as well as a choice of garlic sauce, tzatziki, or tahini. We were also offered some homemade hot sauce as well. The food tasted really good and my colleagues enjoyed theirs as well. I'd like to visit again to try more of their menu. They have plenty of dishes that would be good for sharing as well.

    It is fun to see an Egyptian restaurant pop up in Edmonton. We thought it would be good to give it…read morea try. It is really cute inside full of trinkets from Egypt that make you feel like you are in a baazar. The owner is super friendly and helpful. Really loved the customer service. We decided on a few dishes to try. We decided on the Chef's Platter that serves 2-3 although unless you have an appetite of a lumberjack, it will feed more. It comes with - Salad, Hawawshi (flatbread filled with meat), kushari (Egypt's national dish consisting of lentils and macaroni), baba Ganooj, Musakka as well as a bunch of skewers. Chicken, beef, kabab skewers, lamb shank and rice. We also ordered Egyptian tea which was delightful. Food took a while to come out. However it was all good except the lamb shank was on the dry side which was disappointing. I really enjoyed the salad and the baba ganooj. My husband enjoyed the meat dishes. However we both loved the Hawawshi. Give it a try!
