    Sarcophagus
    Paul D.

    A fantastic gyro place. Obviously they serve other Mediterranean dishes, but personally I always go for the gyro because it is best in class for me. Amazingly well prepared and served with extra salad or fries or rice, your choice. I have to say, the kitschy sarcophagus and other Egyptian ephemera are a corny but wonderful addition to the decor. I just love this place. My highest recommendation.

    Chicken Shawarma Sandwich
    Jeff K.

    we were on magnolia street looking for dinner, and while our first choice was italian food, the line to get seated was too long so we opted for this place instead. this place is located at the end of magnolia street, and when we first walked up, it looked a bit run down from the outside with metal grates. however, the inside felt like it transported you to a different country. i loved all the interior decor. they had murals and statues of Egyptian pharaohs, which was extremely unique. as for the food, it was all right. we ended up getting a chicken shawarma pita sandwich and a regular beef shawarma plate. the plate came with a salad and fries or rice (i opted for the fries). the salad was refreshing and light. the chicken shawarma was seasoned with tahini, and was a bit messy to eat. the beef shawarma was seasoned with some onions and tomatos and also came with a side of tahini. Service was good, they came by to check and were extremely friendly. what i didn't like about this place is that they didn't serve regular water. they said since covid, they don't give out free water. so, if you want water, you'll need to pay for it. it was such a weird experience to pay for water, especially in america. i would understand if we were in europe, but come on... i don't think i've been to any restaurant in america where you need to pay for water.

    Baklava, highly recommended
    Retna S.

    Great Mediterranean food. Definitely get the baba ganoush and the hummus, served with warm pitas. When you get chicken schwarma, make sure you put the tahini on top to add the flavor. Baklava was fresh and homemade. The phyllo was crispy and a lot of nut filling. Highly recommended. Our waitress was attentive and friendly . The restaurant was big and nicely decorated with Egyptian "artifacts "

    Salad

    Place is situated in a bustling shopping center. The space is clean and has a softly lit ambiance. The service was excellent. My husband ordered the King Combo dinner portion--which included sliced beef and a side of French fries--while I enjoyed the Chicken Kabob with a side of vegetables. The food was both healthy and satisfying. I highly recommend it if you're craving Mediterranean cuisine.

    Mixed grilled plate- veggies were amazing but the steak was dry.
    Lily F.

    We were in the neighborhood and wanted Medi food and decided to stop here. A tiny bit expensive for what you get, but the food was pretty good. I ordered the mixed meat platter and it looked the best out of what everyone got. The best part was probably the grilled vegetables honestly, which were seasoned really well and tender. The chicken was okay but the steak was definitely a bit dry. Also seasoned well, but for the price, I'd expect it to be a bit more tender. My boyfriend ordered one of their lunch specials which was smaller on the portion size but he seemed to enjoy his kofta and fries. My friends ordered a falafel salad and didn't have an issue. Yes, they charge for water here which I'm never a fan of, but I get it. I suppose. The service was great and I wouldn't be upset visiting this place again.

    Cucumber dip.
    Terry J.

    Omgosh! Talk about delicious. The appetizers, Cucumber dip, meat pies and Dolmas were sooooo good and tasty. Our salad arrived and I can't be going to tell you how fresh and good it was. The dressing, so tasty I asked if they sold it by itself? And of course they did and of course I got a bottle to go! Moussaka with okra was seasoned to pure perfection and put a huge smile on my face. It's one of my favorite Mediterranean dishes. Service, warm and friendly and super attentive. My new favorite restaurant! I'll be back!

    Chicken Shawarma
    Steve S.

    If you've been wanting to try this place like I have for a while I'd definitely recommend giving it a try. The lunch specials were reasonably priced and the food was very tasty. I got the chicken shawarma and it came out nice and hot. The salad sever before it was very crisp and tasty and the dressing on the salad was nice. We got the hummus and it was obviously made fresh along with the pita bread that came out warm and soft. Overall this place has great food. The vibe is ok. I wouldn't go here for a date or a ice night out but for lunch it definitely hit the spot. Probably would be good to-go also.

    Baklava
    Neesha P.

    Food: delicious! Vegetarian options clearly spelled out. Falafel Plate. Shawarma Lunch, a little oily, but refreshing with the double salad option. Freekah Soup was amazing. Hearty and really hit the spot. Everything comes with pita so it's all very filling. Baklava is a must if you have a sweet tooth! Service: they are fast! Ambiance: a cute place nicely decorated with Egyptian aesthetic. We stopped here for a quick lunch meeting.

    Shrimp Pizza
    Karen W.

    Delicious! We ordered for pick up and the food was piping hot when it was ready. We ordered the hummus, shrimp pizza, shawarma combo, king tut combo, foul madamas, baklava. Everything was flavorful and seasoned perfectly. Note, the shrimp pizza is personal size.

The varied menu and the price point were just right. You pick up a cafeteria tray and point to what you'd like. I opted for the 6 item veggie plate. Portions were very filling!

The salads were crispy and delicious - I loved the vinaigrette dressing which was perfectly tart. I wish I'd tried the coffee with my dessert - the baklava was a bit dry. I wish they'd opened a private side room for our party. Our table felt a bit cramped and it was a challenge to scoot into the very long booth seat which was closed off where they pushed tables together. On the whole, a really nice place and I'd definitely return!

The restaurant is very cozy and cute inside, not big, but you could fit a good sized group in here (I'd call ahead). Order anything and you'll love it. Their hummus and baba ganoush are both beyond delicious every time, and their grilled meats (any of them) have so much flavor and never seem to by dry. The lentil soup is super velvety and well seasoned. The falafel is so herbaceous. Y'all know I can't eat pita but my husband and child are obsessed with it. We are big big fans of Fattoush and it continues to be a good regular dinner option for us!
