    Gyro as you can see a bit over stuffed
    Dan S.

    Fun place in the Garage food hall. Fast service I had gyro very quickly. The fries were solid and spiced nicely. The gyro was too full to eat. I know everyone likes a big portion but I had to eat half the meat and scrape out excessive yogurt to be able to pick it up to eat. Very messy but it was good.

    We stopped here at garage food hall before a convention in Indianapolis. We did the full walk around and this place looked like it had some really nice food to stop in with. Being a food hall meant that there was a lot of activity every direction . Even so there was not a line and people were very friendly. The food itself was delicious . I personally had the falafel and found that it was perfectly cooked and well seasoned. Their sauce also was really good for both the wrap and to be used on the fries. All in all, this is a great place to go if you're in need of a good meal in Indianapolis.

    Falafel sandwich and fries

    Tried this place at the Bottleworks garage. It's good. I got the falafel pita and fries. The fries were ok, but the pita was AMAZING. The falafel was so good. Crispy on the outside, but hot and steamy on the inside. They had delicious sauce, hummus, and the perfect amount of veggies. This was great. I went after the lunch rush, and the service was very quick. The staff were all very kind. The garage is always amazing. Lots of room to sit, tons of other options for food if you are with a group, etc. Definitely try this place. The falafel was great. I will be back to try other menu items.

    My veggie gyro was yummy. It did, however, take a long time for them to make. Employees seemed to be talking with each other instead of handing out the food. .

    Sales tax is 7%???? Admin fee!

    Great food. Scamming money! 9% sales tax... Admin fee... Not cool man. I asked the employee and he looked at me like I was a cheap a$$

    Gyro without onions

    Friendly service and I had a delicious, fresh lamb and beef gyro (without onion on my request) with a garlicky, thick tzatziki sauce. My gyro came with fries that were crispy and tasty. Totally helped me cure my fix for a gyro! So good!

    I went to the garage and took my time to look for what I wanted to eat. I happily decided to try Mama Fofos where Ms.Penny kindly recommended and explained everything to me. She took the time to make sure I got exactly what I wanted and more. I highly recommended the chicken gyro! Ms. Penny even invited me to her families restaurant and that was amazing as well! So glad I chose mama fofos!!! Can't wait to visit the family again!

    Mama Fofo's is ALWAYS top tier They have the best hummus I have ever tried. I have gotten the hummus dip appetizer so much that it's borderline addiction lol. I got their gyro and fries last time and the fries were super crispy, but soft inside, and were coated with a Greek seasoning that was super aromatic. The gyro meat was great but it had a bit too much tzatziki for my liking - to the point where it kind of overpowered everything else and made the gyro hard to eat due to the mess.

    Ordered Gyro Melt. Hot, crunchy shell, creamy inside with tzatziki was pretty good. Wanted a gyro meal but it was way overpriced. Enjoyed that meal but can get gyro's other places for less that are delicious.

    Mama Fofos is a yummy spot in the garage with Greek/Mediterranean cuisine! I had the chicken gyro here which came with fries, and it exceeded my expectations!! The chicken was juicy, seasoned very well, and the yogurt sauce was perfectly thick and flavorful. The fries were seasoned, crispy, and delicious as well! I'm hungry just thinking about it! In terms of service, the woman serving us was nice and friendly. There's a lot of seating in the garage too and it's a lively environment, so it's a great spot to grab a bite with friends :)

    Basically what it says on the box... quick Greek food to go. I had the Gyro, because of course I did. Prices are similar to most of the other booths in the area. I thought that the serving size was perfect, but if you're used to the massive gyros that some places sell, yeah, it's not that. If you're a guy used to big plates of food, you might need to get another snack after this. Regardless, the food was very tasty, and I could definitely see myself returning if I was in the area

    Chicken gyro with fries
    Christin S.

    Delicious! Just had a very delicious lunch at The Garage Food Hall - Mama Fofo's. The chicken tasted awesome. It was juicy and flavorful and crunchy. The tzatziki sauce on the gyro was very very good. Salad was super fresh and delicious. The fries were nice and crispy and very good. We enjoyed everything about our meal and are excited to go back!

    Delicious chicken gyro sandwich! Only the chicken is halal but it's nice to have halal food at The Garage. The service was nice and efficient and The Garage vibes are always fun with friends!

    We're always looking for good Greek food in Indianapolis and noticed this spot while eating…read moresomewhere nearby, so we decided to make a trip back downtown for it at a later time. Located in a cute blue house, this is conveniently located near Lucas Oil Stadium and there was a huge concert going on the night we were there, but we were still allowed to park in their parking area. Inside has nice lighting and is pretty plain but has a homey feel. The menu contains many items we're familiar with having visited Greece twice. So I'm going to be a little critical here with my review of the food. I ordered the Greek Spaghetti, which I have had in Greece. Unfortunately this was not at all what I was expecting or anything like Greek spaghetti. What I was served was basically Prego spaghetti sauce with pieces of gyro in it. Traditional Greek spaghetti (or Makaronia me Kima) is a wonderful sauce that's seasoned with all kinds of memorable spices. It's definitely not pieces of gyro meat thrown in a sauce. So while this was fine, it was not what I truly wanted or thought I was getting so I was pretty disappointed. My husband got the chicken souvlaki and that was better but still not quite like what I remember. The meat was almost smoked and lacked some of the Greek spices that gives it a distinct taste. And the tzatziki...well, let's just say it tastes like whipped feta and was lacking in flavor too. I did enjoy the pita bread. Our service was underwhelming as well. It took a while for anyone to notice we were there and needed to be seated and the server basically did the bare minimum, never even asking if we wanted our water refilled. Overall, it was fine. If I had never been to Greece, I may have a different opinion but this isn't someplace I really want to go back to.

The entire place is covered with the evil eye charms, so you should definitely be safe here. I highly recommend reservations because they sure get busy. And while the ambiance is great, you really cannot linger for long, as there are usually folks waiting to get a seat. The menu is quite extensive and offers plenty for carnivores and vegetarians alike. I opted for the Iskender, which is crisp pita bread pieces topped with meat slices, all of it doused in a savory tomato based sauce and topped with dollops of yoghurt. The bread has little crisp edges and together with the meat and toppings gives you like a mini sandwich in your mouth. Simply delicious. The Turkish spices bring a wonderful flavor to the dish. I highly recommend it. Hat to admit it, but I have not been too impressed with the tzaziki on previous visits. It was somewhat runny and bland, but I haven't had in a while. Street parking is limited, but in the summer there is a gravel lot on the side of the neighboring building. However when it snows, parking can be a bit of a problem, so be aware.

Then we waited to be noticed by the wait staff. And we waited, and waited. It took 17 minutes before anyone came to our table. We would have left but we had a $50 gift certificate to use. Finally someone came over. We ordered teas & an appetizer of flaming saganaki. We found it very tasty. For entered I ordered the Greek meatball sandwich. My wife got a cup of egg lemon bowl ( which is a soup she loves) & Keftethes ( with beef meatballs). I found the fries god & the meatballs & bread decent but the sauce was a little off to me which greatly reduced my enjoyment. It was just ok. My wife thought the soup was a bit thin but overall god with a strong lemon flavor. Her entree the meatballs were good, the green beans were cold & the roasted potatoes were decent. Overall she was meh. We ordered desserts to go. Baklava, Galaktoboureko ( custard in philo dough) & Oreo cake. Wife thought the baklava had an overpowering cinnamon taste which hurt it. The Galaktoboureko was basically sugar cream pie with philo crust. I thought it was ok but wife thought it should have been thinner. She also believes the to go containers aren't sufficient for these desserts due to the sugar syrup. The "Oreo cake" had one cookie to the side & was dry. When we gave the waitress our gift certificate she said they would take that off when they rang up the bill. She came back & the gift certificates were not taken off. I pointed this out to her & she went back to talk to whoever is running the register. When she came back she said she has no idea what's going on but they gave me a $50 bill to credit the $50 in gift certificates. My amazing wife surmised that they credited someone else's bill & gave us the $50 to make it right for us. Bottom line is all the staff we interacted with were friendly but the restaurant is very disorganized. Food was just ok. Can't say we were impressed.

Requesting something other than pizza and burgers is a big deal! I ordered the beef shawarma and the chicken shawarma, just so we could try both. Both looked like a burrito, which is familiar to my kids, so they went with it. We liked the beef, but the chicken shawarma was mind-blowing, and we will definitely be ordering this again. You can get the shawarma by itself or as a meal, which means it comes with fries. I also got the gyro, which comes with sliced beef and lamb, yellow rice, hummus, salad, tzatziki and pita. Because we got our food to go, the pita came separate from everything else, and I had to assemble my gyro myself like a little taco. It was delicious, but so much food! Honestly, the gyro plate can feed two people easily. Because I can't pass up a baba ganoush, I ordered a small one. They have some excellent baba ganoush at Sahara! I think this might even be my baba ganoush go-to now. Ordering online is very easy, and my food was ready to be picked up even before it was supposed to be. The only thing is that Sahara is located on the Broad Ripple strip, so parking can be iffy. I didn't find any parking in front of the restaurant, so I had to circle the block a bit before I found a spot.
